But Mueller — and Congress — could pick up where counterintelligence hits its limits.

By Asha Rangappa [2019-01-13]

The FBI, according to the New York Times, opened a counterintelligence investigation into whether President Trump was secretly working on behalf of Russia after he fired former FBI director James B. Comey in 2017. As a former FBI agent who conducted investigations against foreign intelligence services, I know that the bureau would have had to possess strong evidence that Trump posed a national security threat to meet the threshold for opening such an investigation.

Personally, I can’t think of anything worse than a country governed by the current crop of backbench lunatics, and that’s saying something. Any ability to govern would swiftly walk down toilet street and leave all of us in the hands of a combative rabble. https://t.co/LB8cUYIupZ

No surprise. I don’t think that this is a “bombshell”. The Brexit is about a few politicians and investors taking back control in order rule their citizens with less interference from Europe.

Thank you for changing the diplomacy game rules: Now the European ambassadors can write to US companies and ask them (in a manner as friendly as your's) to stop buying oil from Saudi Arabia.

Have a nice Sunday.#Khashoggi

Saudis Cozying up to Trump

By cozying up so much to Trump, Saudi Arabia makes itself a partisan lightning rod in the U.S. https://t.co/yS5CYycfZa

Frankly speaking, to me it looks like both sides are cozying up to each other.

Trump, the Conman (1958)

What the fresh hell. This is REAL. Filmed in 1958- about a conman who grifts a small town of suckers into building a wall. History not subtle enough for you? GUESS THE GRIFTER'S NAME

In the comments to this tweet there are assumption, that “Trump” in the movie was a reference to Fred Trump, the father of Donald Trump.

That dude looks like Fred Trump too.

Fred Trump the slumlord, reviled by many in NYC back then. Woody Guthrie wrote him into a song back in 1950. https://t.co/88YXSa73vL
