Quick analysis of smear campaign against #JudgeKavanaugh:
1. #Ford's accusation is LITTERED w/contradictions and lacks a SINGLE PIECE of corroboration. See:
2. #DeborahRamirez' claims were so unsubstantiated, w/o credibility or corroboration, that the #NYT REFUSED to publish an article about them. Ramirez admitted she only recalled that "Kavanaugh had exposed himself" after SIX DAYS of consulting her attorney.

3. Accuser # 3, #JulieSwetnick, incredibly waited until YESTERDAY to release her outrageous claim that Kavanaugh was somehow a ring leader for a HS gang-rape circuit. Her claims were so incredulous and unsupported that the NYT again passed on writing an article about this.

After sleeping on this, I’ve unearthed a couple of salient points.this Op-Ed-as I said-is actually a more brilliant piece of writing than anyone has noticed. It’s incredibly hard to write with this much precision on a topic about which you ultimately divulge no information.
This is also a verifiable masterpiece of spinning language, worthy of its own Pulitzer Prize. You’ve noticed how the Democrats echo each other. Here’s “kids in cages” to refresh your memory but there are a thousand loops of this-all the same. They have 0 creativity changing words
That’s what makes this @nytopinion so astounding. It repeats every BS narrative of the last two years without using any of the same language. To tell you hard that is: imagine making a Land Rover without using any of the original parts, but making it even better.

2. "Generosity is a virtue, but unlimited generosity is a fast route to bankruptcy.

Humanitarianism is commendable, but not when you’re demanding that others share the burdens and expense.

A very liberal immigration policy is wise, but helter-skelter migration isn’t."

3. "Knowing how to set broad but clear limits is one of the essentials of conservative governance. Merkel’s failure is that she ceased to be conservative."

I've ruminated quite a bit on the anonymous op-ed published by NYT.

I've read it at least a dozen times.

I've listened to what really smart people have to say about it.

No matter how I litigate it in my mind, I always end up at the same bottomline.

#NYTimesOpEd
Although I am grateful there is a group of people within the administration who are mitigating Mr. Trump's worst inclinations, I do not believe the motives of the author are as altruistic as they claim.

Because no one is the villain in their own story.

#NYTimesOpEd
In truth, the author is admitting that s/he is guarding their party and their grasp on power before they are protecting the country.

Because there are Constitutional remedies for this situation.

So @nytimes has its own #Anon#NYTAnon. Their own conspiracy theory, viz. a confederation of at least two people (#NYT, their "Senior" #Trump Administration #Anon and saboteurs). And this mysterious well-placed, secret insider guides us through White House treachery. Right.

A person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors is a #patriot. The state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's way of life, behavior, or political views is #liberty.

Here we go #nytimes is reporting #RodRosenstein felt used by the White House to fire #JamesComey. SMH. Only now this is being leaked to #Fakenews because Rosenstein had his arse handed to him by #JimJordan. If the story is true why didn't or won't Rosenstein resign?
There are no shackles keeping him to his desk. All Rosenstein has to do is quit. It won't stop the witch hunt but would start restoring faith in the system.
I call BS on the #NYT story and once again the #FakeNewsMedia is falling for yet another lie. Rosenstein didn't look so shaken during the hearings. Further proof the man is a fake.

The one clear conclusion in the fallout from the Chozick book? There has been no reckoning at the #NewYorkTimes. No newsroom autopsy. No blue ribbon commission. No inquiry from the publisher, as in Blair and WMD. Until that happens, it's all bizarre anti-journalistic reaction.
And as I've argued before, when you have reporters on Twitter essentially filling in as the voices of the institution? That's a recipe for pure disaster. First off, they're Godawful at it. Just terrible. Secondly, it's unfair. Why don't the publishers stand up and defend the NYT?
Today, you have the opinion page editors trying to "steer" the direction of the Chozick fallout with three anti-Clinton letters. So clumsy and obvious! When the defense of a *damned newspaper* is "the candidate was really to blame" then journalism has failed completely. #NYT

Thread: 'quiet accomplishments' of Trump admin. Very little major legislation - but it doesn't mean they're not accomplishing their agenda.
Feb. 28 bill blocked SSA from reporting mentally impaired recipients to nat. background-check dB. #GunControlNow washingtonpost.com/investigations…
In March and April, Trump admin. withdrew protections for 42 endangered species. #Endangered #Conservation bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
