Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      This debate is a more interesting one than the Comey v McCabe one. I agree the worm has turned, but think the RU investigation will still change the narrative.https://twitter.com/adamdavidson/status/985543549088423936 …

      In answer to @NateSilver538 and @mattyglesias : The politics looks uphill. I am making an argument that it takes some time for the national narrative to adjust to awful facts. I have seen it vividly twice in the last fifteen years. Historians could point to many other examples.

      As I noted this morning, fact that @PressSec had to tweet out Thursday pic bc Trump wasn't looking Presidential on Friday, he was instead calling his consigliere in a panic, is testament that he's done presidenting. https://www.emptywheel.net/2018/04/15/earlier-in-the-week-trump-may-have-looked-presidential-on-friday-he-looked-like-a-suspect/ …

          @emptywheel great post. Do you expect ruling tomorrow from the bench in Cohen matter about who reviews the seized records?

          No idea. There will be 4 questions I think: TRO, taint team, sealing of details, and Trump's equities, not necessarily in that order.

          Seriously. I can't imagine Trump wanting to put Pence in the picture. He's too much of a spotlight hog to want to share the attention given to that picture as showing the seriousness of the decision-making process. She had to put the Thursday pic out because Friday he was a mess.

          As big a week it was, I don't think this was the Big Bang moment yet. But I think a Cohen indictment could be if broader than campaign finance, and we're an awful lot closer to that now.

          Trump was always unfit to hold this office for mainly 3 reasons: incompetence, conflicts of interests and criminality (RU + past crimes). What we have seen since inauguration is the convergence of all 3. The Cohen raids are the bugs that got Gotti. Cohen is Sammy the Bull.

          Tbh, he doesn’t look that presidential in the picture she chose. He looks confused.
