Rachel says to expect a news dump

[malaise]

keep your eyes open.

[GP6971]

1. Have her on now.

Saw an earlier post that said the Friday news dumps are happening later in the evening.

[malaise]

3. I think the collusion story is huge

I suspect they know they've been caught given the collusion between the Murdoch entities - Fox and WSJ to raise questions on whether collusion is a crime before the WSJ went public with that Flynn collusion story last night.

[GP6971]

5. I'm hoping that Flynn is in deep shit

Again I saw an earlier post that Flynn is singing, but I've seen so far verifies it.

[malaise]

8. Hope so too

Lock him Up

[elleng]

2. BEEN waiting!

[JHan]

4. Her analysis of his tactic to disgust is brilliant

[malaise]

6. Yep

Put his shit on ignore

[furtheradu]

13. I want that bumper sticker.

"Put his shi* on ignore"!

Along with "Your actions speak so loud, I can't hear what you're saying"

[Ilsa]

27. That was an eye opener.

Not because of his need for distraction, but because he has zero appreciation for the institutions he now represents. He trashes the presidency, our role as the leader of the free world, etc. He looks really sociopathic in this analysis, but she's right.

[JHan]

34. Yep. He trashes what he doesn't own or value - in this case the office of the presidency and..

the collateral damage- America's standing in the world.

He just doesn't care.

[hlthe2b]

7. I am fearful it may be related to Eric Holder's tweet to DOJ colleagues (out of the blue, seemingly)

To the career men & women at DOJ/FBI: your actions and integrity will be unfairly questioned. Be prepared, be strong. Duty. Honor. Country.

[malaise]

9. She's talking about the WSJ collusion story last night

and the disaster that is Trumpcare and the way in which the Con has everyone talking about the Mika mess.
She did point out that the blackmail part of the story is serious.

[hlthe2b]

12. Yes... I know... but that reporting is already out via WSJ and a separate piece from McClatchy...

There's been a big wind up to a very important news dump the past several days, even as this (otherwise bombshell) story was being reported.

Seeing, Holder's tweet, I am very worried the increasingly unhinged/uncontrollable Trump will proceed with a pre-July 4th massacre of some form.. And, while an attempt to stop the Russia inquiry would ultimately fail (IMO) and any attempt to remove Mueller would surely result in bringing all of the past several months of hell to a head, I'm afraid if the full story has not been uncovered, that about 20% of the population will become violently determined to "protect" Trump at all costs. This is my fear... I try not to go there.

[mercuryblues]

32. the only way anyone would

question their integrity is if Sessions is hauled in for questioning.

[chillfactor]

10. I am watching her program....

the orange one is destructive, distracting, and sneers at the presidency itself because of his own behavior...that is disgusting to the reputation of our once great country. He doesn't care if he gets negative publicity as long as the publicity shines on him. He has been denounced and disgraced by members of his own party..yet on the basis of his metastasized behavior is seriously harmful to the country as a whole. He doesn't care if 32 million lose all of there health care...hell let them go without health care until never.....the recons have had 7 years to come up with a health care and have not they and they never will. What a sick bastard that we have as president.

[onecent]

11. I hope whatever happens is that Dump cannot go to see Putin.

I want them to take him to jail, do not pass go.....

[hlthe2b]

14. Terrifying thought of them together without a Trump "handler"....

[Leghorn21]

15. Like an idiot, I've been holding my breath since reading Ben Wittes "tick tick tick" tweet

on MONDAY, ffs!! And other twit-chatter says yep yep, hang on, tick tick, heads up, stand by

SO, malaise, is obsessively checking DU and fifteen twitter feeds every seventeen minutes for five days straight the same as "keeping your eyes open"??

If so, I am indeed "keeping my eyes open" with a fury and a NEED to see these mobsters gone from my life right fuckin NOW.

Was I clear?: NOW

(sorry, thanks, I'm a mess, but I ain't the only one, eh?? Nyet!!!)

[american_ideals]

16. First Wittes tick was last Fri :)

Or maybe last thu

[Not Ruth]

18. It is amazing how Twitter has superseded Facebook for news

Last year, I remember constantly checking Facebook trending topics. Then they had the Fake News massacre where Facebook got rid of their trending topics staff. Since then, Twitter has risen. This week, I deleted Facebook off my phone. Not Twitter though.

[Leghorn21]

29. GLAD I MISSED IT, ideals!! I need some O2 here as it is! Halppppp!! eom

[american_ideals]

47. Yup just hold on and find a GOP-sen July 4th parade to protest

almost all Sens will be at July 4tg parades. Go express your opinion about their tax cut bill

[malaise]

17. I don't even have a twitter account

Everything I read that's on Twitter I get from here - I am so boring - DU and the Guardian are my main sources.

[Not Ruth]

19. You are definitely missing out

Link to tweet

[malaise]

20. I saw that here

[malaise]

23. Ha

Hopefully helpisontheway

[helpisontheway]

59. LOL nt

[cwydro]

25. I don't either.

And those are my two main news sources too lol...though I do surf around the net a bit.

[malaise]

26. I used to love Salon

one of my original internet links

[Leghorn21]

36. Nor do I, malaise!! And I never went near twitter before the commencement of our Neverending

National Nightmare here - but I click and read and "comprehend" (ha ha) as best I can, and click links attached to tweets, and...such like that.

Oh, and you may be many things, my friend, but "boring"?! NOPE!!

[malaise]

38. Ha -time fore fireworks

This is getting hot - Peter W. Smith listed Bannon, Conway and Clovis, besides Flynn, in a recruiting document;

[Leghorn21]

42. COPY DAT, M!! eom!

[greatauntoftriplets]

43. I don't do Twitter either.

I spend enough time here and on Facebook already!

[malaise]

44. Don't have Facebook either

my siblings are still pissed.

[emulatorloo]

52. It was the WSJ story about Republican operative

Trying to get HRC's emails from the Russians from her server while Sec of State.

https://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/gop-activist-who-sought-clinton-emails-cited-trump-campaign-officials-1498872923

Operative told Russian hackers he was working on w Michael Flynn

Intelligence has documentation of Russian hackers discussing Flynn

That's the story I think he was ticking about

Hayes on MSNBC showed that clip of Trump on the campaign trail asking
asking Russians to hack her server to get deleted emails.

That story is a bombshell.

So the question is did Trump
Ask Flynn to go fishing for Russian hackers?

[cwydro]

22. Meh.

So tired of these "about to happen" things.

I promise to eat my hat if something really big happens. But it won't.

[malaise]

31. Here it comes- Smith named Trump campaign aids

Bannon and two others

[emulatorloo]

53. Wow! Missed the show can you give a quick summary?

[emulatorloo]

54. Things are moving at the speed of light

I lived thru Watergate, we are seeing things come out in a week that took months and months back then

Hang in there.

[Honeycombe8]

56. Poster above says it already happened. nt

[C_U_L8R]

28. Boom?

46. Claude Taylor is waiting on the WaPo too

Claude Taylor @TrueFactsStated
Look, I know we're all waiting for WaPo story to drop-but if they were asked to hold it by IC we may not see it anytime soon. I have no idea
9:19 PM · Jun 30, 2017

[american_ideals]

48. Pwnallthethings is computer security guy Matt Tait

So this piece could be good.

[american_ideals]

50. Matt Tait is the guy who received doc from Stone

According to WSJ article.

[gldstwmn]

57. According

to some on the Twitterverse something is about to come out in the Washington Post. Who knows though?

[american_ideals]

51. Note WSJ reporter unable to determine how Smith died

Harris, the WSJ reporter, made some effort to determine how Smith died 10 days after talking to WSJ. He couldn't get an answer.

Would be interesting to know if Smith knew he was dying and wanted to come clean.

[mitch96]

55. Boom?

So the WSJ has outed the guy (Smith?) who worked with/for Flynn as the equivalent of an ambulance chaser for Democratic dirt. Another nail in the coffin for Flynn and up the food chain to his boss...
This just gets more messed up by the day. Like others have said he (who's name shall not be spoken) will say outrageous things so we will not keep our eye on the ball. He wants to control the conversation and there for our thoughts so we don't look at the Russian investigation.
