I got a story to tell about these black nikes and they involve my dear friend @thecoachchris_

The internet is a powerful tool when used wisely.
About a year ago,

I had a pair of busted running shoes šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Iā€™m gonna see if I can find the tweet that had em because woof those shoes were fucked up.

But I kept working out in em.

I was unemployed as most of you know so Buying new workout shoes wasnā€™t a priority.
Found it šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚



And I wasnā€™t doing it for charity, I just didnā€™t realize how much I needed new ones because there was so much other stuff going on.

LAWSPLAINER. Okay. Let me try to do a less half-assed job of thoughts on Manafort's plea agreement. Meanwhile, consider this treatment by friend and classmate @MitchellEpner, as to whom #ff.

/1


/2 BIG POINT NUMBER ONE: In this DC agreement, Manafort pleads to two charges with a maximum 10 year penalty. He agrees to facts that support the government's Sentencing Guideline calculation, which starts at 210 months, much higher.
/3 What does that MEAN? Well, the Guidelines are only suggestions, but it means that even with respect to the DC conviction only, Manafort has a lot of cooperatin' to do before he starts making a difference on that sentence -- it's likely to max out at 10 years.

On August 30th, an archive of communication between former US President Bill Clinton and former Russian President Boris Yeltsin was declassified by the White House. We downloaded tweets containing 'Clinton' and 'Yeltsin', resulting in 7200 tweets from 5588 accounts.
Among the themes that pop up in these tweets is the notion that former President Clinton "colluded" to help Yeltsin win, with the implication that any collusion with a foreign power on the part of Trump isn't so bad.
720 accounts have tweets containing "Clinton", "Yeltsin", and either "collusion" or "election" in the last ten days. This chart shows the news sources mostly frequently linked by these accounts. Russian state media seems popular.

The @meme_america account promoting #VerifiedHate was previously run by "Millennial Matt." It's a stage name used by Holocaust denying white supremacist Matt Colligan, a Unite the Right marcher.

h/t to my colleague @aoifegall who discovered this:
Matt Colligan is pretty comfortable waving a swastika flag, as reported by @crislopezg mediamatters.org/blog/2017/10/1ā€¦
#VerifiedHate has some significant reach in Trump circles that goes a little beyond Colligan's usual audience of anti-Semitic NEETs. The planning of it was chronicled by @chick_in_kiev: mediamatters.org/blog/2018/08/0ā€¦

1/ A lawsuit the government settled more than 20 years ago ensures that a federal judge can oversee how the government treats immigrant children in detention.

Now, the Trump administration is trying to do away with that oversight. revealnews.org/blog/governmenā€¦
2/ The proposal to end the Flores agreement, as itā€™s known, comes after the federal government has admitted it didnā€™t reunify more than 500 migrant kids with their parents.
3/ The settlement was the result of a class-action lawsuit filed in 1985. It states that the government ā€œshall continue to treat, all minors in its custody with dignity, respect and special concern for their particular vulnerability as minors.ā€

Hey journalists - can we talk?

I know you are under a lot of pressure lately. And I know you are sick and tired of being called "fake news" and I don't blame you. I know you're mostly doing good things.

However...
You need to do better when covering activist press releases. As a scientist, let me just say, you really suck sometimes. If you don't want to be accused of publishing fake news, one great thing to do would be to stop publishing actual fake news.
Here's one small tip for identifying fake news: if it's from @ewg then it has a high likelihood of being complete and utter bullshit. Dont be their stenographer. Don't legitimize their pseudoscience by making it a he said/she said story. Just stop already.

130 million years ago, when dinosaurs roamed Earth and the first flowering plants were beginning to bloom, two neutron stars spiraled into each other. #OTD in 2017 the gravitational waves arrived and made a mirror here on Earth move about 1/1000 of a proton radius.

About the same time one of @LIGOā€™s detectors was ringing, the @NASAFermi space telescope detected a burst of gamma rays. @LIGO and @ego_virgoā€™s automated systems determined that the signals were probably related.
The same subatomic shiver was confirmed in the second LIGO detector, and an alert went out that turned telescopes around the world towards the patch of sky that issued the chirp and burst.

Hereā€™s the short documentary I mentioned to @JoyAnnReid on @amjoyshow we made with @NBCLeftField about next steps for reunited families.

Remember: now harder to win asylum under AG Sessions. And 1,000 reunited families are slated for deportation.

Maria Gloria came to the U.S. with her 11 and 7 year old boys from Honduras to escape death threats.

They were separated for a month and a half, now finally reunited.

I told @JoyAnnReid what they and 1400+ now face.

Here's our @NBCLeftField short doc:

In light of the #FIN7 "Combi Security" DOJ indictment, we've released our massive technical post and indicator release: fireeye.com/blog/threat-reā€¦

We reveal new information from @Mandiant IRs about the extent of FIN7's crimes, their innovative techniques, & how to find them today.
#FIN7 targeted other financial data when they encountered encryption in POS networks. New information today - and certainly helped stack up the charges against Combi Security.

Also @BarryV @stvemillertime first shared SEC filing targeting in March 2017: fireeye.com/blog/threat-reā€¦
Crime doesn't pay. Unless you worked for Combi Security, in which case it paid a pretty decent wage for Russian/Ukrainian "pen testers" šŸ˜„

Sidenote: @FireEye's red team is hiring but their operations *are* authorized and the only payment card hijinks is over who expenses dinner.

Lastly, @ClayCollins has just finished up an epic 3-part podcast documentary on security tokens that is essential listening.

Let me explain why this is a bad defense of Trump's trade policy:

1) Evidence that is trump's goal is scarce. Thus far we have only seen increasing tariffs and Trump has repeatedly said he is fine with that, which is consistent with his lifelong support for protectionism.
2) Many of Trump's tariffs have actually been targeted at countries who already have lower average tariff rates than us. (Ex: Canada overall rate on all products = 1.56% vs. U.S. was 1.67% in 2016 via the World Bank).
When confronted with this fact, Trump has babbled about trade deficits (which are not bad) & repeatedly deflected by pointing out tariffs on specific products being high which makes no sense as an excuse for him raising tariffs on completely different products/raw materials.

This #FF let's celebrate the developers who are making #Bitcoin great. I have three devs whose contributions I want to highlight this Friday:
1. @TheBlueMatt (@ChaincodeLabs) for his important work to improve the decentralization of mining with his BetterHash proposal. Great work, Matt!

github.com/TheBlueMatt/biā€¦
2. @pwuille (@Blockstream) for his work in brining Schnorr signatures to Bitcoin. I'm very excited that you're pushing this forward Pieter!

WANTED: A serious progressive approach to foreign policy. Dictator-lovers need not apply.
ALSO WANTED: Intellectuals who oppose bad faith arguments and don't resort to strawmen and deflections when they can't come up with remotely coherent arguments for their know-nothing FP positions.

Noah Berlatsky need not apply.
