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.”🤬
Comey told Trump that he “could not be counted on in that political sense.” That’s because Justice is BLIND‼️
Trump infamously demanded that he “needed loyalty and EXPECTED loyalty.”🙄
Comey froze and said nothing. 4/
Comey bluntly explained to Trump why an *independent* DOJ and FBI are “better for a President and the country.”🇺🇸
Comey is CORRECT‼️ 5/
Trump then insisted that the “pee-pee tape” was #FakeNews.🤨
In this cas, Trump likely is correct, because the REAL tapes allegedly are MUCH worse than “golden showers.”🤢🤮 6/
Now, we have Loyalty Pledge 2, when Trump demanded, “I need loyalty.”🙄
Trump and Comey settled on “honest loyalty” without Trump,understanding that Comey was loyal to TRUTH and OUR COUNTRY.🇺🇸 7/
Trump told Comey he had “serious reservations about Mike Flynn’s judgment” b/c as Trump was toasting British PM May for being the first to call after his inauguration, Flynn interrupted to say that [redacted] was the FIRST to call after his inauguration.🤨 8/
🔥WHOA🔥
Trump was upset b/c Flynn said a return call to [redacted] was scheduled for Saturday, which Trump thought was too long to return a call from a country like [redacted].🤔
How much do you want to bet that PUTIN was the first to call⁉️ 9/

💣BOOM💣
Trump’s FIRST call with Putin was the SATURDAY after his inauguration‼️
Trump admitted to Comey that Flynn had “poor judgment” b/c Trump spoke w/our closest ally, Great Britain, before #Russia🇷🇺⁉️
Then CoS Reince Priebus asked Comey if there was a FISA warrant on Misha🇷🇺Flynn.
The answer appears to have been YES (it’s redacted of course).🙄 11/
OMG, only in the Trump era would a sitting president brag that Putin told him that #Russia🇷🇺had “some of the most beautiful hookers in the world.”🙄 12/
Then the conversation took a turn for the worse (hard to imagine!). Trump whined that #Russia🇷🇺wanted an APOLOGY from Bill O’Reilly, then asked if Comey approved of his answer about respecting Putin.🙄
Comey was like, “sure, all except us being KILLERS like Putin.”🤣 13/
🔥OBSTRUCTION🔥
Here is a CLEAR example of Trump committing #ObstructionOfJustice by advising Comey to “see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go.” 🙄 14/
In March, Trump called Comey to push him to “lift the cloud” of the #TrumpRussia🇷🇺probe.
Apparently, Trump asked Comey to “find a way to get out” that the FBI wasn’t investigating Sergei MILLIAN‼️ 16/
In their last discussion, Trump again pressed Comey to say publicly that Trump wasn’t under investigation.🤨
Trump further pressured Comey by reminding him that he’d been “very loyal” and they “had that thing.”🙄
Comey knew better than to say ANYTHING about this publicly‼️17/
💣The BIGGEST bombshell BY FAR in the #ComeyMemos is Trump’s admission that Flynn had “bad jusdgment” because apparently, Flynn was making Putin wait 6 days for a return call from Trump‼️ 18/
Trump's deputy campaign chair Rick Gates solicited proposals (#felony) from Israeli firm Psy Group to create fake online personas, use social media manipulation & gather intel to help defeat @GOP primary opponents (@tedcruz) & @HillaryClinton🤨1/ nytimes.com/2018/10/08/us/…
Gates wasn't interested in Psy Group b/c other Trump aides oversaw social media. George Nader & Joel Zamel (Psy Group owner) met w/Don Jr & offered to help *THROW THE ELECTION* at an Aug'16 meeting arranged by Erik Prince‼️
George Birnbaum (Arthur Finkelstein protégé/@GOP consultant who worked for Netanyahu & other Israeli officials) initially pitched Gates on using social media influence/manipulation to sway @GOP delegates toward Trump.🤨 3/
🔥@GOP operative Peter Smith raised >$100,000 to pay #Russian🇷🇺hackers to find Clinton’s emails. 10 days after telling his story to the @WSJ, he committed suicide, yet a friend spoke w/him about a new project hours before his death & says he was “excited.” wsj.com/articles/gop-o…
Smith continued his quest for HRC’s emails *after* the US warned of #Russian🇷🇺interference & went to extraordinary lengths to ensure secrecy, communicating via saved DRAFT (unsent) emails in a shared Gmail account.🤨
🔥One sent email said the >$100k in donations were to be sent to a DC-based scholarship fund for **Russian students**👉🏼“This $100k total with the $50k received from you (Smith) will allow us to fund the Washington Scholarship Fund for the Russian students for the promised $150K.”
We Democrats realize that you are in a tough re-election battle, but backing #Kavanaugh only brings you more scorn from the @GOP and erodes your much-needed support from @TheDemocrats base.
Connie Chung to Dr. Ford: “I, too, was sexually assaulted—not 36 years ago but ~50 years ago. I kept my dirty little secret to myself. Silence for 5 decades...The exact date & year are fuzzy. But details of the event are vivid—forever seared in my memory.” washingtonpost.com/amphtml/opinio…
Connie Chung: “Christine, I, too, am terrified as I reveal this publicly. I can’t sleep. I can’t eat. Can you? If you can’t, I understand. I am frightened, I am scared, I can’t even cry.”😰
Chung: “I wish I could forget this truthful event, but I cannot because it is the truth. I am writing to you b/c I know that exact dates, exact years are insignificant. We remember exactly what happened to us & who did it to us. We remember the truth forever.”
Charles Ludington, a former varsity basketball player & friend of #Kavanaugh at @Yale plans to deliver a statement to the @FBI field office in Raleigh on Monday detailing **violent drunken behavior** by Kavanaugh in college. 1/
Ludington says #Kavanaugh initiated a fight that led to the ARREST of a friend: “When Brett got drunk, he was often belligerent & aggressive...” 2/
“On one of the last occasions I purposely socialized with Brett, I witnessed him respond to a semi-hostile remark, not by defusing the situation, but by throwing his beer in the man’s face and starting a fight that ended with one of our mutual friends in jail.”😳 3/
Rod Rosenstein suggested last year that he secretly record Trump to expose "chaos" consuming the administration & discussed recruiting cabinet members to invoke the #25thAmendment.
Will Trump use this as an excuse to fire Rosenstein⁉️
Rosenstein made his remarks about the #25thAmendment & secretly recording Trump in meetings & conversations w/other DOJ & FBI officials. Several people (briefed either on the events themselves or on memos written by FBI officials, including McCabe) described the episodes.🤨
Rosenstein reportedly told McCabe that he might be able to persuade Jeff Sessions & John Kelly to mount an effort to invoke the #25thAmendment.
All of these incidents allegedly occurred around the time that @Comey was fired. Rosenstein was very distressed & felt he was used.🤔
