(THREAD) #noko #trump
tinyurl.com/y7chgu4t
1/ Get it now?

Believe it or not: Trump thought he could pull off a school yard carrot and stick routine on one of the world’s worst and most ruthless dictators. #noko #trump
2/ Trump said in Singapore that he felt embarrassed about having called Kim Jong Un “rocket man” and threatening to rain nuclear “fire and fury like the world has never seen” down on him if he didn’t negotiate away his nuclear weapons and program.
3/ The “fire and fury” remark was the stick. Once he was one on one with Kim at a summit, Trump would sell him--just like he sold real estate deals in New York. For Trump it would be simple, b/c (as he sees it) he’s the greatest real estate salesman the world has ever seen.
4/ The result: Kim ran the table on Trump in Singapore and went home with all the winnings. Trump, the US, and the free world got nothing.
5/ The most frightening part of it is that Trump continues to see himself as a colossus bestriding the globe. #noko #trump
6/ He does not see that Xi Jinping, Kim Jong Un, Vladimir Putin and others of their kind see plainly (as indeed the rest of us do) that he is a fool--the global village idiot. #noko #trump

One key to getting to the bottom of this is the private-wealth office of Deutsche Bank. @NatashaBertrand

I posted this to Twitter a long time ago. It’s from Yuri Felshtinsky and Vladimir Pribylovsky, The Corporation: Russia and the KGB in the Age of President Putin. Encounter Books. 2008, pp. 40-41 (not available online):

Let’s try to clear up some confusion here.

We need to be clear about terms like “investigation,” “inquiry,” and “background check.”

Let’s begin with a relatively unloaded term: “inquiry.” 1/16
Here’s the question: Should the INQUIRY re #Kavanaugh have been conducted as a standard FBI BACKGROUND CHECK or as an FBI INVESTIGATION? 2/16
An FBI background check is not the same thing as an FBI investigation (though the former might very well lead to the latter). 3/16

(THREAD) Collins votes YES, so Kavanaugh’s confirmed.

This is the finale of the confirmation VOTE, but it is NOT the end of the #Kavanaugh ISSUE. 1/14
The FBI “investigation” was a sham, and that makes Collins’ special pleading for her YES vote a sham. It was a sickening performance. 2/14
The fatal weakness of her defense of her vote is that there was no meaningful investigation. Merely seeking corroboration in the form of direct, eyewitness testimony from the participants of the 1 Jul 1982 meeting does not constitute a meaningful investigation. 3/14

A subjective impression, admittedly, but in the pics and videos I have seen, Senate Rs look grim and worried--even, on occasion, angry.

D claim that this was a cover-up (20+ witnesses not called) is getting traction. No adequate push back from Rs yet.
McConnell saying on the floor that the Senate must vote to confirm b/c “in this country you’re not guilty until proven innocent” has this whole matter so wrong (it’s a job interview, Mitch, not a trial) that he must be feeling a little desperate.

(THREAD) The predicted early conclusion of the FBI background check on #Kavanaugh that has been reported by Politico and the WSJ is surprising and cause for anxiety and concern, but let’s look try hard to look on the (possibly) bright side. 1/8
We must keep in mind that this investigation is essentially a background check on #Kavanaugh, in light of newly surfaced allegations of belligerent drunkenness and sexual violence alleged against him by Ford and others. 2/8
So this investigation is more about Kavanaugh and his nomination than it is about Ford or any other accusers, and while the FBI does not reach conclusions, it does uncovers facts, and presents those facts to others so they can better reach their own conclusions. 3/8

THREAD: THIS JUST OCCURRED TO ME. HOW DID I MISS IT? WHY HAS NO ONE ELSE NOTICED IT?

CHRIS GARRETT MUST BE INTERVIEWED ASAP
1/ Dr Blasey: The party where the assault occurred was attended by Smyth (P.J.), Judge, Kavanaugh, another boy she can’t recall…
2/ Remember: Kavanaugh’s calendar (July 1) has Chris Garrett, her boyfriend at the time (she was at least dating him) at that party.
