1. @DaveNYviii In the next few weeks MSM journalists will be rushing to catch up on the various nuances and back-story to the year-long Office of Inspector General investigation.
2. However, one guy @DaveNYviii has done yeoman's work in assembling the backstory while almost no-one was paying attention.
3. You can see some of @DaveNYviii 's terrific research here: threadreaderapp.com/thread/9495018…
4. Anyone who has read the [@DaveNYviii ] work, with accompanying citations, will be miles ahead of media and pundit voices who will be struggling to reconcile the fast moving events.
5. It's a remarkable testimony to citizen research and new-era journalism, via use of social media platforms like Twitter, to understand complex political events by following during times when MSM is not paying attention.
6. It's the non-sexy granular events, that don't gain media attention when they are happening, that really outline important moments when the consequence finally surfaces and gains attention.
7. Those who walk -almost invisibly- in the deep weeds of political happenings, are simply gathering data-points, and outlining a complex story in bite-sized portions.
8. It is not easy work, it takes a lot of time and dedication to the craft of discovery. Heck, it's generally unappreciated, but when the inflection point of consequence is reached those comfortably invisible researchers have the benefit of comprehensive knowledge.
9. And with 2018 almost guaranteed to be the most consequential political year in our lifetime, people like @DaveNYviii are modern Paul Revere's.
10. Social media may never be as historically sexy as a lantern in the Old North Church Tower, but the message therein is no less consequential.
11. So before we enter one of the most consequential times in our political history, I'd just like to thank: @DaveNYviii @Imperator_Rex3 @ThomasWictor @GOPPollAnalyst and all the other deep weeds walkers who are continuing the tradition of Revere's ride.
