In June 2016, Rob Goldstone emailed DonJr. promising incriminating information about HRC as part of a RU gov’t effort to help the Trump campaign.

Did the White House via @RajShah45 leak identity of Dr. Ford to @GOP operatives hours before the WaPo story broke?

WH counsel Don McGahn has "cooperated extensively" w/Mueller, sharing "detailed accounts" of episodes at the heart of the #ObstructionOfJustice inquiry into @realDonaldTrump, including info that investigators would not have known otherwise.🔥 1/

nytimes.com/2018/08/18/us/…
🔥WHOA🔥

In **at least 3 voluntary interviews that totaled 30 hours** over the past 9 months, McGahn described Trump's furor about the #TrumpRussia probe & how Trump urged him to respond, providing a clear view of Trump's most intimate moments with his lawyer.😎 2/

#Busted
McGahn shared details on @Comey's firing & Trump’s obsession w/putting a "loyalist" in charge of the #TrumpRussia probe (e.g., Sessions). McGahn was also centrally involved in Trump’s attempts to fire Mueller, which investigators might not have discovered w/o McGahn.🔥 3/

CT: “Trump (and some adult family) negotiated a deal with the Saudis and the Emiratis for 3.6 billion to get rid of Iran nuclear deal and reimpose sanctions. The payment was made in two installments. The first last year and the second earlier in 2018”

"Trump has seethed to confidants that he views the Manafort charges as “a warning shot” from Mueller. He has told those close to him that as he watches the courtroom proceedings, he fears that Donald Trump Jr. could at some point be the one on trial"

👇🏼BINGO👇🏼

@AriMelber nailed it. Team🇷🇺Trump is *the* source for the stories of @realDonaldTrump’s alleged desire to be interviewed by Mueller.🙄

Same goes for Mueller allegedly agreeing to limit questions to #ObstructionOfJustice — did Mueller *really* agree to this⁉️
*Targets* of federal GJs cannot compelled to testify (b/c they'd likely take the 5th which can prejudice the GJ). However, *if* the testimony is needed to complete the GJ's investigation (e.g., Trump's intent when he fired Comey), targets can be compelled to testify.🤔 2/
It's possible that Mueller agreed to limit Qs to obstruction b/c:

1. Trump's testimony on obstruction is needed to confirm intent
2. Trump is a *target* for NON-obstruction charges, for which Trump's testimony is NOT needed to complete the probe

#TrumpRussia

yahoo.com/news/key-democ…
During the 2016 campaign, Stone met in #Florida w/a #Russian🇷🇺immigrant & sometime FBI informant Henry Greenberg who offered Clinton dirt.🤨

We’ve heard this story before from Don Jr and Kushner.🙄 2/

#TrumpRussia
Neither Stone nor Caputo mentioned the meeting when they testified last year before House Intel about their contacts w/#Russians.🤨

Both men have attributed to the fact that they had “forgotten” about it.🙄

THREAD: Remember the claims by @realDonaldTrump & cronies that he'd sit for an interview w/Mueller⁉️

Trump LIED.🙄

Trump’s lawyers have **for months** tried to prevent Mueller from trying to force Trump to answer questions = #subpoena‼️ 1/

nytimes.com/2018/06/02/us/…
In a letter to Mueller, Trump's lawyers claim that Trump "cannot be compelled" to testify.🙄

WRONG! Mueller can #subpoena Trump to FORCE him to testify **in front of the grand jury**.😎

Trump's lawyers CAN be w/him for an interview, but NOT for grand jury testimony.😉 2/
Trump's lawyers also claim Trump "could not possibly have committed obstruction b/c he has unfettered authority over all federal investigations."🤨

Yeah, just ask Nixon about that‼️3/

The NYTimes **obtained the list of Qs that Mueller wants to ask Trump during an interview.🤨

It's VERY hard to imagine that details of the ACTUAL questions would leak, unless the negotiations btwn Mueller & Trump's lawyers have BROKEN DOWN (as I was told a few months ago).🤔 2/
Overall, Mueller's open-ended Q's attempt to penetrate Trump's thinking (good luck!), to understand Trump's motivation for his crazed Twitter posts & to examine Trump's relationships w/his family and his closest advisers.🤨 3/

COMEY MEMOS: (THREAD) Working my way through the 15 pages of #ComeyMemos. Here are the most important and/or shocking revelations: 1/
During #Comey's 1/6/17 at Trump Tower, @Comey told Trump that the Russians allegedly had tapes involving Trump & prostitutes at a Moscow hotel in 2013. Could these be the infamous #PeeTapes? #ComeyMemos 2/
Trump also praised #Comey on 1/6/17 for his handling of the #ClintonEmails investigation. @realDonaldTrump lavished praise on @Comey, indicating that Comey had conducted himself "honorably" and had a great reputation. #ComeyMemos 3/

Here’s the first conversation btwn @Comey and then-“President” Elect Trump where Trump insinuates that he’d never be with a prostitute b/c he doesn’t need to pay for sex.🙄

Didn’t he leave money on the dresser for a woman⁉️ 2/
Here goes @realDonaldTrump with his not-so-subtle question to @Comey: “so what do you want to do?” explaining that “about 20 people” wanted Comey’s job.🙄

And then, Trump dives into his MOBSTER “loyalty pledge.”🤬

THREAD: Trump officially is in the barrel‼️

Mueller informed Trump’s attorneys last month that **TRUMP IS UNDER INVESTIGATION**, but is not considered as a criminal target “at this point” = yet.🤔

Meaning: this is NO “witch hunt”.😉 1/

washingtonpost.com/politics/muell…
In negotiations in early March about an interview, Mueller described Trump as a SUBJECT of the #TrumpRussia🇷🇺investigation.🤗

SUBJECT👉🏼that person has engaged in conduct that is **under investigation** but there is not sufficient evidence to bring charges.🤔 2/

#MuellerTime
Mueller is treating the #TrumpRussia🇷🇺 investigation like a MOB CASE‼️

Mueller is working his way up from the bottom-dwelling scum suckers, all the way to the top.😎

The fact that *Mueller told Trump that he’s a SUBJECT* is a very big deal‼️3/

#TrumpRussia got you down? We get it. How can anyone keep up with ALL that mess?

(cue bad music)

INTRODUCING #TRAITOR CARDS! Now you can traitor with your friends! At home, on the go, never again will you forget what’s his face who betrayed your country.

Collect them all! 🇷🇺
1) Multiple ties to the mob & Russia. 4+ intelligence agencies confirmed election meddling. Congress passed sanctions. Government has the power to stop cyber attacks. Poison, hacking attempts, & still, Trump does nothing.

#Traitor #TrumpColluded
2) Trump Jr is best known for being an idiot. He once noted at a real estate summit that his family sees a lot of money from Russia. He also set up the infamous meeting with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya. He then tweeted out the evidence.

Do NOT be fooled by the "pause" in the (public) action. Mueller has NOT paused‼️

Last summer, the #RNC ordered its staff to preserve ALL of its records that relate to the 2016 election.🤨

🔥PENCE🔥

THREAD: Recently, we’ve learned more details about whom Team🇺🇸Mueller has interviewed, and that Mueller plans to interview Trump.🤗

What’s *at least* as interesting: who‘s NOT been publicly included on Mueller’s interview list. Most conspicuously👉🏼Mike PENCE‼️1/
Given Mike Pence's role during the campaign, the transition and now in the WH, Team🇺🇸Mueller *surely* will interview Pence (or already has). But in what capacity? Meaning: how does Pence fit into Mueller's #TrumpRussia investigation⁉️ 2/
Basically, it boils down to this for PENCE:

👉🏼Pence is "innocent", saw nothing, did nothing during his entire tenure w/Trump, or
👉🏼Pence is "innocent" himself, but witnessed criminal acts by others, or
👉🏼Pence participated in criminal acts.

Trumps attorneys are reluctant to allow him to sit down for open-ended, face-to-face questioning w/o clear parameters. No attorney in their right mind would want a client like Trump to be interviewed by Team🇺🇸Mueller‼️3/
