Trump’s appointment of a prosecutor - after a personal interview - who may well be prosecuting him is absolutely abhorrent to the rule of law. thehill.com/homenews/admin…
Appointment of Geoffrey Berman, especially w/o Congressional approval, is unprecedented and inexcusable - raising serious questions about the integrity of this highly esteemed office and our system of checks and balances.
Regretfully and outrageously, Pres. Trump seems again to be subverting legitimate investigations into his own potential criminal wrongdoing, including collusion with Russian election interference and obstruction of justice.

Another indictment from SDNY implicating Trump & his closest aides. The President’s son, son-in-law, & campaign manager tried to get “dirt” on Hillary Clinton from a confirmed agent of the Russian government who has now been indicted for obstruction of justice.
Trump allies & sycophants will try to say these charges have nothing to do with collusion, but don’t be fooled: Veselnitskaya is a key player in connecting Trump to Russia, & her indictment spells bad news for him. The next step is cooperation with SDNY & Mueller prosecutors.
Walls closing in for Trump family. NY prosecutors, not just Mueller, on their case.

Because of the #TrumpShutdown, 800,000 workers are not getting paid, but senior officials are receiving a raise? Utterly unfair & another insult to the hardworking men & women currently working w/out pay & forced to make substantial sacrifices while the gov't is closed.
Accepting these raises makes clear these “leaders” fail a basic tenet of leadership—putting what’s best for the group above one’s own self interests.
I will be donating my pay to Homes For The Brave until the shutdown is done. What will top Trump officials do with theirs?

Unacceptably missed deadlines! Lifesaving railroad technology—Positive Train Control—still lacking on almost all rail lines, despite Dec 31 deadline. FRA must hold them accountable with $27,904 per day fines if necessary.
Metro North's failure to meet the deadline for Positive Train Control is absolutely unacceptable. Requested delay to next year seems to put safety at risk, after repeated extensions.
Congress must be clear to rail companies: No more statutory extensions for Positive Train Control deadlines. Stiff fines & other penalties should be imposed for future failures. Rail safety is at stake.

Le tweet de la nuit US par #Trump: l'enquête #Mueller,dont son avocat a demandé l'arrêt, n'aurait jamais dû exister en 1er lieu. Et le président de reprendre l' idée démentie même par le rapport républicain Nunes d'1 enquête basée sur le rapport de renseignement privé Steele...RT
2) Pourquoi cette nouvelle saillie nocturne de #Trump? Sans doute parce que #Mueller non content d'assigner ses documents d'affaire avec la #Russie a envoyé les questions qu'il souhaiterait poser au président...L'intrigue se resserre...thehill.com/homenews/admin…
3)#Breaking Et dès ce dimanche matin, #Trump repasse en boucle contre l'enquête #Mueller...1 cap est franchi: comme expliqué hier(cf. #thread épinglé),il tient son argument. S'il y a complot de #McCabe et #Comey contre lui, le procureur est leur complice...

1) This is my #Qanon thread for posts from February 5th to the present.
The theme of this thread is the transfer of wealth of the puppet masters.

Q posts can be found here: qcodefag.github.io
2) #Qanon begins with a screenshot of a tweet by POTUS responding to a tweet from Adam Schiff.

#Trump accuses @AdamSchiffCA of being a liar and a leaker, on par with James @Comey, @MarkWarner, @JohnBrennan & James Clapper.
3) #Qanon says Trump's BLUNT statement was made because damaging information is about to come to light. It involves Shiff, but t also the puppet masters: the Rothschilds, Prince Alwaleed (Dopey) and maybe even George Soros.

DNC Media and Never Trump heads right now are being blown.
"And now this just in....the current CIA Director said something very very stupid today about Trump's horrible rotten no good use of Twitter that is so absurd, we can hardly keep a straight face while we report it."

thehill.com/homenews/admin…
Remember when the big concern among 'experts' like @RadioFreeTom was about how Trump's 'stupid' use of Twitter would allow foreign powers to manipulate HIM, read his mind, etc?

Here's the sitting CIA Director directly telling people it's actually the OTHER WAY AROUND.
