Lawrence: "Forgive me if I mispronounce her name, but I've never had any reason to say it publicly or privately."
I guess we are supposed to all high five this line, right?
It's nice that white liberal America has a black woman they can comfortably disparage.
Hard pass.

My thread on Omarosa was succinct. I am no supporter. But let's not forget that Sean Spicer got a job at HARVARD when he left the White House.
We can't dismiss the facts of @OMAROSA's race & gender from the tone with which white pundits are discussing her. (I emphasize white.)

The @OMAROSA story today has several important facets, none of them risible.
This is a woman who was in Trump's inner circle and who had his ear.
Prior to him calling her a "low life" on Saturday, Trump lauded her and her work in various tweets and interview comments.

Trump wants you to believe #Omarosa is a liar, but then there is the tape she played on @MeetThePress.
Which is evidentiary.
The #GOP and #RNC are concerned---they started an #OmarosaUnhinged hashtag and are busy tweeting about her, as are Trump's surrogates.

#Omarosa isn't "unhinged." She's vengeful. Is she a liar? About some things, verifiably. About others, verifiably truthful.
That she was able to go all over Trump's White House recording people is a cause for grave concern.
It speaks to Trump's incompetence as a leader.

The #FakeNewsMedia, especially #FakeNewsCNN, have been reporting according to their sources #JohnKelly would be fired by President Trump more times than we can count only to learn he is staying throughout 2020. Now we see why they are labeled #FakeNews
Everything #FakeNewsCNN reports must be questioned. They don't get their facts straight and when called out will make a tepid correction. They have not reported fair and balanced news in a very long time. #VoteRed2018
Anderson Cooper, Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, Wolf Blitzer, Jake Tapper, Jim Acosta, Poppy Harlow, Brooke Baldwin, Erin Burnett all report #FakeNews for their audience to eat up and fill comfortable.
Hey--remember when CoS #JohnKelly (the villain in every story involving Trump's inner circle) maintained #RobPorter's security clearance even though he knew Porter was responsible for #domesticviolence against both his former wives?
In case you forgot that story because John Kelly has done so many other terrible things since, Kelly ignored #RobPorter's abuse of his wives and prioritized protecting Porter over his victims theintercept.com/2018/02/07/rob… …
#JohnKelly is OBVIOUSLY the architect of today's threat to rescind the security clearances of Brennan, Hayden, Rice and Clapper. (Comey and McCabe already had theirs revoked.) These are not things Trump discerns on his own. He needs direction. Kelly--who hasn't resigned--gave it.
trump would LIKE you to believe that his concentration camps on the border are policy that existed under Obama and Clinton.
GET INFORMED. TRUMP'S EXCUSES ARE DISGUSTING LIES.
Myth-busting thread ahead:

Myth-busting thread ahead:
The catastrophe unfolding at the border is ENTIRELY on TRUMP's shoulders. He has demonized the poor, the uneducated, the desperate, the foreign, the brown, the black. To the point that his supporters are able to defend crimes of humanity against them and say THEY DESERVE IT.
If you can defend this calamity, you have truly lost your ability to reason and your soul. And are that much closer to being like the "good Germans" who looked the other way while their government committed atrocities against "other" people.
The Wife's fam are immigrants.
So tonight we were talking about #JohnKelly.
I am imagining #MothersDay with the fam all together & The Wife's mother, whose parents were a carpenter & a lacemaker who didn't speak English. The Wife's mother is a painter & retired art professor.

#JohnKelly's xenophobia & racism are over-the-top, even for someone in the Trump administration. How can someone who lost a child be so cavalier about children being separated from their mothers? How can he claim immigrants can't assimilate? How do Trump's people talk like this?

My father's mother was from Sweden, never went to school past 5th grade. Her husband, my grandfather, never went past 8th. She took in washing, he was a photographer. They were both functionally illiterate.
My father won a scholarship to an Ivy League college.

The @GOP and any remaining tRumpsters out there better start paying attention to the FACTS and the WARNINGS, & opinions from HIGHLY respected, life long PUBLIC SERVANTS who truly care ONLY about protecting OUR COUNTRY. They DGAF about politics...

...well, until politicians start preventing them from performing their DUTIES. These CAREER PROFESSIONALS do not politics affect their work. They follow the facts, they verify tips on illegal activity (#SteeleDossier) or clarify FALSE accusations (illegally wire tapped).

Investigations are SUPPOSED to have a NATURAL conclusion. That means tips, leads, facts, ENTIRE investigation has exhausted all relative leads & come to a VERIFIABLE conclusion. The same way we expect ALL law enforcement to do when we're accused of crimes, or crimes against us
