Thread : 1. Right after the report published in the #Observer, I asked the #BlackCube spokesman if Black Cube is in fact the Israeli firm. His answer (yesterday morning) was : "Not related to us".
2. @lrozen tweeted here yesterday that it is confirmed the Israeli firm in question is #BlackCube. He denied again. "BS, It's not us". I reported his denial here.
3. This morning, after @RonanFarrow 's publication in the @NewYorker , his version changed: "We didn't know the @guardian meant us. We didn’t know it was us because this report was about #Trump. But then we saw the emails reported by the New Yorker and we know those emails."
4. He insisted "there is no connection to Trump or the #IranNuclearDeal" but he didn't deny #BlackCube was hired by a private company and even told me the client is "somebody that profits from the sanctions on Iran".
Question : who is the client and how they connect to Trump?

MY HISTORY: THE DANGERS AND CONSEQUENCES OF NOT ASKING.

#Thread
My whole life, I was told I asked too many questions. My mum would encourage me to ask but teachers and neighbours would consistently shut me up when she wasn’t there. So, I toned it down and simply HOPED that what I thought things were, were what they really are.

Examples:
1. If I had asked my former boss to explain to me why I wasn’t getting my pension statements and Tax reports, I would have known sooner from his response that he lacked integrity and empathy.

Instead, I HOPED he would see how hard I worked and not cheat me that way. I goofed!

I have been working on radicalism, populism and extremism for 15 years, having published my first (co-authored) article in 2003. Time to take stock and reflect on the field and its gender unbalance #Thread
When I first started doing research on radical right-wing populist parties, I didn’t notice there was a strong overrepresentation of men. The other PhD students of my supervisor @CasMudde were mostly female and I met plenty of talented women scholars at conferences.
Moreover, influential books on radical right-wing populism were published in 2005-2006 by Elisabeth Carter, Michelle Hale Williams @PippaNorris and @TerriGivens by university presses and Elisabeth Iversflaten was publishing groundbreaking work in highly ranked journals.

Trump is telling the TRUTH for once.

RU was NOT the ONLY hostile foreign nation that interfered with the 2016 elex.

In addition to RU, Israel, SA, NK & China (&?) also interfered with our 2016 Elex.

Black Cube operatives hired by Trump aides contacted the wives of both @ColinKahl & @brhodes, former Obama aides who worked on the Iran deal. The only way Trump can "win" is by "getting dirt" on his opponents & either smearing or blackmailing them.

Rhodes: This represents a troubling situation, in which public servants are being targeted for their work in govt. "This eviscerates any norm of how govts should operate or treat their predecessors & their families. It crosses a dangerous line."
#Maddow
In May 2017, "Trump officials" reached out to private Israeli intelligence firm Black Cube, which also ran dirty ops for Cambridge Analytica, whose co-founder is then-WH chief STRATEGIST, Steve Bannon, a "Trump official."

My Dear Igbo Compatriots, your leaders, not President Buhari, are your enemies

Thread
Politics anywhere in the world is a fierce battle. Like war, all is fair in politics. In Nigeria, tribe & religion determine, to a very extent, political victories

I wonder if the above assertion is debatable. I have seen a lot to come to this conclusion
In my entire political life, i do not know a Nigerian politician who's loved and hated in equal measures like the current occupant of Aso Rock - PMB

Like all mortals, PMB has his weaknesses and these weaknesses have been over-exaggerated by his political foes

That's politics!!
