As far as Nunes can tell, none of us have even met with Trump

Devin Nunes Gets A Pretty Basic Fact Wrong In Defending His Memo
Nunes suggested that Donald Trump had never met with George Papadopoulos. There's a photo of them sitting at the same table.

And we certainly didn't have a national security meeting right here:

Meanwhile, the whole Nunes document reduced to a row over fonts 🤥

It turns out the FISA application did reveal Steele's political affiliation in the footnotes. But Devin the great American hero doesn't read footnotes. I'm sure the judges do, but that's irrelevant now.

A new worry re: Brexit is that TRump has made it clear that he doesn't want protests and now in the last week, Jacob Rees Mogg has met with Bannon and been caught up in a fracas (that looks as though it might have been started by one of JRM's bodyguards though this isn't confirmed so treat accordingly) and David Davis yesterday talked about being intimidated by protesters and Zac Goldsmith has said his constituent has received a threatening letter from "The Real 48%"/Europe First and the talking points are all about new laws to stop intimidation, which I think might be used to limit protests [that is speculation on my part] and also is suspiciously reminiscent of the culture wars Bannon likes to wage.

I thought the same Pain

And who told Trump there had been an NHS protest? It was hardly widely covered in the media.


Meanwhile, in Ohio. Does anyone think Trump looks bad I mean even worse than normal

Watching US conservatives trying to destroy the FBI, the courts, and the ability to hold meaningful elections, is like watching a football player who's got a bit carried away about winning, and is now sabotaging the brakes on his opponents' bus and planting bombs in the stadium.

Because both of those seem preferable to his team losing on the pitch.

This is slightly off-topic, but serves to illustrate how Fox is turning people against ‘the Establishment’ or ‘the Elite’. This is simply a case of someone snapping and sharing a picture of a dental tutorial. If you aren’t aware that’s what happens in dental tutes, you might be horrified, but otherwise? It isn’t news.

Newsweek fired all of its top staff today, including @CelesteKatzNYC and IBT editor @thejoshkeefe — both of whom were reportedly locked out of their email & computer accounts.

Oh, & they were also reporting on Newsweek's problematic financial deals...
