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

      My take on the Comey memos. https://www.emptywheel.net/2018/04/20/on-the-comey-memos/ …

      One key takeaway: Trump was denying he slept with sex workers, not that he slept with women (or even had a Golden Shower with them). And that's what Poot said in his remarkably (for him) awkward rebuttal of the dossier pee tape.

      Trump seemed to tie the investigation he wanted w/his two demands for loyalty oath. That's important to understanding how he thinks of investigation now.

      When Trump called to check in w/Comey on March 1 (and seemingly invite him to the WH), Jeff Sessions was on verge of recusing.

          "Those details very quickly leaked. I think it possible — likely even — that Trump leaked these details precisely because Comey said he wanted them kept secret." Soooooo, "John Barron" made some calls eh?

          Interesting ... there's also the Flynn-Turkey connection - remember the Turkish protesters getting beaten up.

          As Yates answered McGahn Qs on day 2 @ WH, DT was slithering out to sign instant global chaos Muslim Ban, & someone at WH was calling Comey to insist he come to dinner: NOW. Yates found out about ban in her car leaving WH, en route to airport. Flynn FBI interview was in West Wing
