#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: "...but it's all the more unsettling given reporting in recent days, about the ways in which our own government has found #ElonMusk to be a potential national security risk. WSJ for example, reported that while there are several hundred employees at SpaceX--Musk's company--who have security clearances for what's known as 'sensitive compartmented information', Musk is NOT one of the people who has that level of clearance, and that's not normal..."😳 More #Maddow: "WSJ reports that the CEOs of other similarly situated companies, they have all been able to get this kind of security clearance, but NOT #ElonMusk...Musk and his rocket company SpaceX have repeatedly FAILED to comply with federal reporting protocols aimed at protecting state secrets, including by not providing some details of his meetings with foreign leaders..."😳

#BREAKING: Financial Times' Edward Luce: "SpaceX, one of @elonmusk's biggest companies has $15 BILLION of contracts with the Pentagon. Many of #Musk's allies like Peter Thiel, cofounder of Palantir, they have HUGE contracts with the Pentagon. These are conflicts of interest, these are SERIOUS, GIGANTUAN conflicts of interest."😳 Only question now is whether @OversightDems will "put their binoculars on"😂

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: "NC is one of the states where Republicans did not do as well as they wanted to in this past election...even as Trump won the presidential race there, the Republican candidate for Gov...Lt.

One wouldn't know that with all the MSM talk about "mandate"🙄

#BREAKING: Capehart: "...but the NYTimes' essay explains that the[Russian]enthusiasm over Trump 2.0 isn't even about how Trump will advance any particular pro-Russia objective. Instead, the excitement comes from something else. It's that to many in the Kremlin, a Trump presidency might bring about the COLLAPSE of the American state."😳 Mikhail Zygar: "I hear quite a lot of comparisons between Trump and Gorbachev...They [Russians] compare them because they view Gorbachev as a Russian leader who embraced Western ideology and therefore brought his country to chaos, and in the same way they consider Trump as the person who stopped believing in the traditional American ideology--liberal democracy--and started embracing Russian ideology."😳

#BREAKING:Great Carol Leonnig to Legendary #Maddow:"The CIA was warning DOJ,we have an informant and additional corroborating intelligence streams suggesting that Egypt's president wanted to get $10M to @realDonaldTrump. DOJ began investigating largely under then S.C. Mueller." Leonnig to #Maddow: "When they actually found corroborating evidence of $10M walking out the door of a Cairo bank...incredible and compelling evidence, they were BARRED from trying to figure out whether any of that $$ ended up in any of Trump's personal or business accounts."🤦‍♀️

#BREAKING:Legendary #Maddow: "There have been some dramatic developments today, about the informant who provided the central allegations at the heart of congressional Republicans' efforts to impeach President Biden."🙄 More #Maddow:"This informant today was sent to jail indefinitely by a federal judge in California...Prosecutors...indicted him a week and a half ago alleging that his statements to law enforcement about...[Biden family]not only were LIES...but disinfo by Russian intelligence."🤦‍♀️

#BREAKING: Judge Luttig to MY Nicolle: "The question under the constitution...is whether or not [Trump] engaged in an insurrection or rebellion against THE🇺🇸CONSTITUTION. The question is NOT whether he engaged in an insurrection or rebellion against 🇺🇸, or the authority of🇺🇸. " #BREAKING: More Judge Luttig: "Another matter that I want to address today...is this. I think that instinctively, Americans who think about the disqualification clause [of the #14thamendment]think that it's anti-democratic...That's an understandable concern..."

#BREAKING:Rep Raskin: "#Kushner created a company THE DAY AFTER the Trump administration ended,and proceeded to collect...more than $2 BILLION from the Saudi govt for an investment there,despite the fact that the sovereign investment fund's advisers recommended AGAINST IT..."😳 More Raskin: "They were overruled by the HOMICIDAL Crown Prince himself, MBS, who said he wanted to give that money to #Kushner, in addition to a $25 million a year management fee. There's been very little of that money invested. The whole thing SMELLS like a huge payback..."😳
