THREAD: Content warning: assault. Last night, after the @pattonoswalt show, my companion and I were hanging out on our hotel patio at @Half_Moon_Inn when we were assaulted by a man walking by in the parking lot. 1/ He threw, with FORCE, a cup full of fluid that hit the sliding glass door behind us, which caused it to basically explode and soak us with whatever was inside. The person I was with stood up and saw a man walking past. 2/

Having a glass of Chardonnay as friends demolish the pergola my abusive ex built that we got married under is cathartic. 💅 Image For those that wanted some video.

I am not a pretty girl
That is not what I do
I ain't no damsel in distress
And I don't need to be rescued
So put me down, punk
Wouldn't you prefer a maiden fair?
Isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere? I am not an angry girl
But it seems like I've got everyone fooled
Every time I say something they find hard to hear
They chalk it up to my anger
And never to their own fear
Imagine you're a girl

THREAD: Sit down and let me tell you a story. A story about how the GOP and the Kremlin nearly duped me into throwing away my vote in 2016. Are you sitting comfortably? Then we’ll begin. 1/ Image In 2016, I was a Bernie supporter. In the early days, it was because I had worked with him, admired him, and because I believed the only way to level the playing field was to get money OUT of politics (I still believe that). 2/

THREAD: It was 2011 and I was temporarily assigned to work at the Decedent Affairs Office at the Veteran’s Hospital in La Jolla. My first day in Decedent Affairs would mark the second time I had seen a deceased body. My job was preparing the body for the Honors Escort. 1/ The Honors Escort is a solemn procession that occurs when a veteran passes. It begins with a bedside flag ceremony, then the gurney is draped with the American flag and a procession escorts the Veteran to the morgue in the basement. 2/

NEW: 1/ Good Morning! Many of you have read my thread about the retaliation and discrimination at the VA when I was removed from my job after investigations into my podcast (thread below), and you've asked "why didn't you blow the whistle?" 2/ Well, funny you should ask. In 2017, David Shulkin was nominated as SECVA and was the only trump appointee to be confirmed 100-0 in the senate. He was an Obama holdover, and he created the "Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Office" at VA that same year.

THREAD: In light of today's news regarding Rosenstein limiting the scope of the Mueller probe in 2017, I want to give a more detailed account of my removal from federal service through the lens of the chronology of events leading up to my eventual firing. Buckle up. 1/ As you all know, I launched @muellershewrote at the end of 2017. During that time, I, like many others, were convinced that Rod Rosenstein was a stand-up guy defending the Mueller probe from the trump administration. I would eventually flip on "Snoop DAG" 2/
