THREAD: The US @StateDept released its annual #ReligiousFreedom report today. From Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, here's where #LGBT issues come up in this year's reports.
#LGBT issues feature in this year's reports on Australia, Argentina, Bolivia, Canada, Costa Rica, Greece, Indonesia, Israel, Jamaica, the Maldives, Mauritania, New Zealand, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Seychelles, Sudan, Syria & Turkey. (And I probably missed others.)
The report on #Australia stays pretty neutral in its discussion of the legalization of same-sex marriage and subsequent push for religious exemptions under Australian law. state.gov/documents/orga…

At the Aug'16 #treason meet, Nader told Jr the crown princes of #SaudiArabia & #UAE were "eager to help his father win." The Israeli social media expert's (Joel Zamel) firm had already drawn up a multimillion $ proposal for a social media manipulation effort to help Trump.🤨 2/
Zamel's social media company #Wikistrat, which employed several Israeli former intelligence officers, specialized in "collecting information & shaping opinion through social media."🤨

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/

Wikistrats' Zamel "informally met" w/Team🇺🇸Mueller👉🏼asked about his business relationship w/Nader, who's a top adviser to UAE Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed & also was close w/Team🇷🇺Trump.
Zamel’s relationship w/Nader is “arms’ length.”🙄2/

Team🇺🇸Mueller also asked Zamel about his work, including for "certain clients," but the ultimate target of this line of inquiry is "unknown."🤔
If it involves the UAE, then you can bet that Secretary of Everything, Jared KUSHNER, likely is part of this inquiry.😉 3/

to Canary Wharf. Oops, on January 23rd, #AlexanderNix joined. I guess that's where the money came from. Same day, Wheatland and Tayler are removed as directors. Ahmad Al Khatib resident of #Seychelles , Johnson Chun Shun Ko (Frontier Services Group, chaired by #ErikPrince)
Cheng Peng (same address as Frontier in Hong Kong) are named directors same day. On March 16th, #RebekahMercer #JenniferMercer are named. Very intersting timing of events no? @JamesFourM @LincolnsBible @ericgarland @ninaandtito
