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. But the more important question now is not how or why the case was opened, but whether it was ever closed. […]

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.
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

Did anyone ask why Secretary Mattis resigned then? https://t.co/vp3pqwEvz4

The graph shows Middle East relations in 2016. How can Trump understand something like that if he even is not able to read Mattis' resignation letter? (He understood it only after the "media" reported about that letter.) https://t.co/rqFnJHV9YQ pic.twitter.com/SSX2GdDlPC

This quite probably is too much for Trump. But thanks to his tweets US soldiers now understand the dangerous military incompetence of their commander in chief. This is worse than his lying to them about salary rises. https://t.co/YARhPy2T2B pic.twitter.com/HsH0QOu3hU

After it took Trump some reading effort (600 words), Trump fired Mattis earlier.https://t.co/OD70vTFiNt
