And, let's not forget old what's his name (Eric Prince) traveling to the Seychelle Islands to set up a back channel. Or maybe he was just on vacation and just happened to run into some Russians on the beach, while sunbathing. 😏

Stone is in California, and he will need buckets of money; those rats won't fuck themselves. Oh ... wait. I've said it before, and I will say it again:

Rats are excellent judges of ships that have sailed.

The only reason Brad PassTheGeld is still on the payroll is because he knows where the Cambridge Analytica bodies are buried. Bannon does, too. I will be watching tRumph squirm between saving Bannon's ass and pissing off the base Bannon flagrantly grifted.

My favorite part of the NYT article was how a senior campaign executive mentioned that the private jets, accommodations, and that large entourage at redhat rallies was basically 'sanctioned vacations'.

I have so many thoughts. My first is that I think

we are going to need a tutorial from Evan in how he and Rachel M and Joy Reid read so fast because these are all things we all desperately need to know but even though I am a reader I can keep up.

One other thing I will say is that even though Peter Strzok is brave, the FBI still needs to hire more black people because black people know both how and where to look for all this stuff.

IMO, this is the real danger of implicit bias. I only know of three black people who have worked for the FBI or who are former federal prosecutors. Two of them are on TV all the time and one is my sorority sister.

Christopher Wray has said the FBI is FINALLY going to treat white nationalist domestic terrorism as a threat. But the FBI has had data on it since at least 2009, and Sherrilyn Ifill has been writing about Russian mastery of American denial of American racism, and how they planned to use it to fracture American democracy, since 2015-16.

And not even Peter Strzok - or Andrew McCabe - has been paying enough attention to that.
