Criminals "learn quickly which prosecutors and investigators are most aggressive in pursuing them"

"It stood out" when Trump "chose to personally invite one" of 93 U.S. Attorneys to Trump Tower - @AriMelber
"There's no record of other Presidents personally meeting with local prosecutors during their transition"

@AriMelber reports on Trump not being able to control NY Prosecutors:
"Why was this high on Trump's to-do list?"

💣🔥💥🍿🐾#SamPatten is a starter on this menu. A thread on #Trump #Putin #Collusion: from pop-singers in Taj Mahal to weapons in Syria, plus what Satan, black cats, soccer, Patriarchs & judo wrestling have in common. Tarantino, it is not. Oh, plus #CambridgeAnalytica. 👇
1. #SamPatten admitted failing to register in the U.S. as a foreign agent for his work lobbying on behalf of a Ukrainian political party. Breaking. 👇
2. "The nature of his cooperation isn’t clear." (Yes, but the connections are telling.👇 ) . Patten worked with Manafort and & on microtargeting operations with Cambridge Analytica.

Reading: “John Sidney McCain III, Patriot or Traitor” veteranstoday.com/2015/07/21/joh…
1) This isn’t a government article and it’s unattributed. But it is rich with information that can be factchecked.

veteranstoday.com/2015/07/21/joh…
2) Of particular interest: Russia. Did McCain “turn” and become a Russian informant during the Vietnam War?

The real Russian collusion in the 2016 election is coming out and DNC Media can't stop it.

DNC Media has spent 2 years pimping the narrative that Trump's campaign colluded with shady Russians to dig up dirt on Hillary & used Russian sources to cheat & win the election.
What actually happened was that THE HILLARY CLINTON CAMPAIGN & THE DNC paid a political comms shop, Fusion GPS, to create a fake dossier full of fake "Russian" info about Trump & some of his campaign personnel.
That fake dossier & the fake Russian info was then actually used to get FISA warrants on Carter Page & launch an FBI counterintelligence spying operation targeting the Trump campaign team.

Ace at the Ace of Spades blog *instantly grasps* what this new info about Steele working for Deripaska means.

Was Steele being PAID by a Russian oligarch banned in the US *before* he was hired by Hillary Clinton & the DNC?

ace.mu.nu/archives/37649…
What has @realDonaldTrump been saying on his Twitter for OVER A YEAR?

Where's the REAL Russian collusion again? Between his campaign and the Russians OR is it between the Hillary Clinton campaign/DNC and the Russians? 🤔
NO WONDER Christopher Steele has ducked coming to testify to Congress, either in open or closed session. No way does he want to answer if he was working for/being paid by Deripaska *before or at the same time* that he was hired to begin compiling the Steele Dossier.

THREAD: Michael Cohen says @realDonaldTrump *knew in advance* of the #Russian🇷🇺lawyer meeting & the offer of Clinton dirt.

Cohen was present when Trump was informed of the Russians' offer by Don Jr & approved of the meeting‼️1/

Cohen did NOT tape the meeting, but “has expressed hope that this claim about the Trump Tower meeting will help him reach out to Mueller and possibly lessen his legal troubles.”

As I’ve said for a LONG time👉🏼Cohen is dealing!😎 2/

#TrumpRussia
#MuellerTime
Even Steven Bannon called the #RussianLawyer🇷🇺meeting “treasonous.”😳

And #SHOCKER, as we’ve known all along, there was NO WAY that Don Jr handled this meeting without Daddy Trump knowing EVERY detail.🙄 3/

1. A proposal to divide California into three separate states will appear on the November 2018 ballot. The “Cal 3” campaign got enough signatures for a statewide referendum.

2. The author and sponsor of this proposal is a billionaire venture capitalist Tim Draper. He first came up with the idea in 2013. His first attempt to divide California into six smaller states in 2014 cost him $5.2m...
