Since the punditry has moved on to predicting how and whether the new administration will go about enacting it's policies and promises, I'm going to do the same. Thread below. In a word PROVOCATION. He will want to identify and defeat any organized resistance by triggering "undesirables" so they can be jailed, deported or otherwise neutralized. His first acts will be designed to provoke protest, preferably unlawful protest (occupies, road blocks, etc.)

Dear Members of the US Armed Forces: If you do not want to be members of the New SS and used as storm troopers against US citizens, please read and share this thread. AND PLEASE VOTE. @USArmy @usairforce @USNavy @USMC @SpaceForceDoD General John Kelly, US Marines, retired, was Trump's longest serving Chief of Staff. In that role he was the gatekeeper to the oval office, and present for many critical events. He said THIS WEEK that Trump is a fascist who admires Hitler. Image

DEAR FEDERAL EMPLOYEES. SCOTUS says you can all be fired tomorrow and no act of Congress can save you. Don't believe me? Think I'm stupid? READ THIS THREAD. For about 150 years, Congress has protected executive branch employees from political pressures, by protecting them from firing, except for merit. protectdemocracy.org/work/the-civil…Image

In light of the new reporting that Tr u mp is a Hxtler supporter and outright fascist, I want to revisit Justice Roberts decision in Trump v. United States. A THREAD. We all grew up in a country where it was flatly illegal for a POTUS to turn the military against the citizenry. There was never any question about that. It was a sure thing. That country is gone.

I'm reading Jack Smith's Motion. Follow along if interested. A DIRK READS STUFF THREAD. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco… I've been pretty skeptical about the DC case in light of Trump v. US, the immunity decision from SCOTUS, so this is our first chance to see what Jack Smith thinks. The first page hints at one line of attack - if Trump conspired with non-Presidents, is that immune? Image

Dear Dems. We can't wait to vote for you. Kamala is the bomb; Walz too. We know you'll do great on the economy and access to the ballot and funding infrastructure and schools, and we long for that and look forward to it.

BUT THERE'S A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT NEED INVESTIGATED Like, for example: 1) TFG's spawn appear to have been involved in killing Kashoggi; shaking down Qatar for a blockade; massive post-term bribe taking; profiteering on the pandemic; 2) TFG is inciting riots TODAY along with the zillion other things he did/has done, oh and the 10M

BREAKING: Everyone at SCOTUS knew in FEBRUARY that SCOTUS would grant Trump immunity. thedailybeast.com/john-roberts-s… And all us powerless normies KNEW PERFECTLY WELL THAT EVERY DAY OF DELAY WAS HIT TO DEMOCRACY AND THE RULE OF LAW

Let me expand/extrapolate/speculate about this hugely important detail noted by Marcy @emptywheel. A thread.

And here's a gift link to the article. wapo.st/46Fok0Y
The critical details in the article are that: 1) The Trump campaign was hacked earlier in the summer, but did not report that to the FBI; 2) Microsoft announced that a US campaign was hacked, confirmed to be Trump; 3) hacker has Vance doc (done by Brand Woodward) and COURT DOCS

The more I think about this, the more it seems like a key to whole evil puzzle. Just at face value, it's a big deal that crypto/gambling interests have an incentive to make the election INTO A HORSE RACE.

coindesk.com/business/2024/… And we have all been asking, WHY DOES IT SEEM LIKE THE MEDIA TREATS THESE EXISTENTIAL ISSUES LIKE A HORSE RACE? And we didn't have a ready answer, But here's a possible answer: crypto/gaming interests are buying political media figures.

Dear US Press, I know you are busy normalizing the completely radical, dangerous people at the RNC convention, but We The People have some goddamn questions, and y'all should investigate: A thread: First, instead of droning about the shooter's motive, ASK HOW WE CAME TO A PLACE WHERE A 20 YO CAN POSSESS AN AR-15?

Since I am on the topic of the national security implications of the capture of Justice Thomas and the Crow family, I thought I would take a peek into that case and the Crow family. So Harlan Crow is a kingmaker in Texas. Senators go to his house to get sworn in; he owns a SCOTUS justice; he has his fingers in TX politics. Presumably a lot of this is bribery. BUT HIS BROTHER HAS AN EPSTEIN STYLE KOMPROMAT OPERATION. Let's examine that. Image

So let's get this straight. Justice Thomas went to Russia, in secret, with Harlan Crow. The trip included a helicopter ride to a palace in St. Petersburg. It took place in 2003. This is the first known yacht trip. Let's examine the implications. A thread. First, a rich american with a SCOTUS justice doesn't just show up unannounced and fly a helicopter into St. Petersburg. That shxt requires advanced notice and clearance AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL - so at minimum Putin and the Kremlin spy and kompromat operatives knew about this.

OK, listen, when the Trump DOJ got a search warrant for Epstein's property, THEY DIDN'T ASK TO SEIZE ELECTRONIC MEDIA INCLUDING HARD DRIVES AND CDs.

SO THEY LEFT IT ALL IN PLACE AND SOMEONE STOLE IT WHILE THEY GOT ANOTHER WARRANT.

Image When the agent got a warrant, SHE CALLED EPSTEIN'S LAWYER AND HE HAD THE HARD DRIVES. Image

The new Trump-Epatein docs make me wonder if Trump-Barr had an incentive to seize all the evidence at Epstein's properties then "tie up loose ends." If Trump and Barr colluded to get rid of Epstein and his trove of kompromat, then CJ Roberts' new Presidential immunity case would expressly allow that. I wonder why?

Dark Dirk examines the new Presidential powers.

Seal Team 6 or naugh?

A thread. Yesterday I shocked myself (and a few others, apparently) by reading US v. Trump and tweeting about it. My conclusion was that it granted Trump and Biden and any future POTUS basically complete immunity.

I'm reading the US v. Trump SCOTUS opinion myself. It is much worse than I expected. My thoughts below. A thread. First off, the "absolute immunity" SCOTUS invents is Absolute. If it falls within "core constitutional powers" there is no order than can be given that can be reviewed by the courts AT ALL. Image

Real talk: most Americans don't have the faintest idea about what most Arabs believe about Israel of the West. Our Western framework and naivete is blinding. Here's a pretty good poll showing most support HAMAS's attack on Oct 7, 2023. gallup-international.com/survey-results…
Image Most believe that the point of the attack was "to free Palestine." I would like to know more about what that means in the respondents'' minds, but, I am sure a substantial percent meaning eliminating Israel and displacing its population. Image

DIRK READS THE DECISION. WTF? A THREAD.

Also a link: courts.state.co.us/userfiles/file…
First off, this is a federal district court reviewing a case that was originally filed in state court - Colorado - challenging Trump's eligibility to be on the ballot. Trump filed numerous motions to dismiss on a variety of technical grounds - all of which were considered.

Ivanka's testimony today confirmed that Deutsche Bank gave Trump loan terms that were unavailable anywhere else based on DJT personal guarantee and financial statements showing minimum 2-3B. Trump Ord therefore NAILED on NYAG's main case: DJT's financial statements mattered AND Confirms that DJT entered office owing hundreds of millions with personal guarantee to foreign bank with vast unsavory ties, and which was under investigation for Foreign Corrupt Practices when DJT entered office justice.gov/criminal/crimi…

Dear People Too Old To Have Grown Up On Tik Tok:

You have an incredibly important duty to democracy and the future. You are needed now. A THREAD. Since October 7, I think practically all of us (old people, that is) have been stunned by the fact that seemingly out of nowhere young people world wide have rallied to the cause of Palestinians following the massacre of Jews in the West Bank.
