And Patagonia.

Fjällräven, though. Dankest jackets of all.

also it looks like more obstruction of justice, regarding US attorney berman.

it's a pretty amazing story. he can't be fired, so barr just announced that he resigned. then berman released the statement saying idk why the fuck barr said that, i didn't. he showed up to work this morning (saturday). reportedly he's been investigating deutsche bank violations of election finance law, rudy giuliani, other stuff. this BI article has a list.

LADY G said he won't confirm a replacement without SCHUMER's grace, interestingly. 

nadler asked berman to testify next week

blumenthal is calling for barr to testify, though lady g will have to agree

this on the day trump is trying as hard as he can to provoke unrest, still, with his stunt in tulsa, and him, his DOJ, and his GOP continue laying groundwork for contested election and vote count shenanigans

but yeah fucking bolton just confirmed the whole ukraine plot while adding a bunch of other shit. like: AS TRUMP TOLD XI THAT HIS CONCENTRATION CAMPS ARE AWESOME, HE TOLD XI TO "MAKE SURE I WIN" THE ELECTION.

i'm fucking done with the GOP. it is not a question of policy differences. red states have no more excuse to be red. the national level republicans need to go. they can be replaced with new ones, but these are fucked.

and, as an aside, here's this. mueller report with lesser redactions released. 

one of the revelations:

 

stay with me

  • trump jr tells veselnitskaya "i love it" about russian hillary dirt. veselnitskaya responds by discussing a russian/american adoption ban which was retaliation to american sanctions
  • trump is aware of coming wikileaks dnc dump
  • trump publicly requests russian hillary email dump
  • trump through flynn relays to kislyak that sanctions for election interference will not be enacted
  • flynn lies about that to the fbi
  • trump undermines numerous sanctions on russia

looks a lot like "something for something" aka quid pro quo, aka conspiracy

 

oh and by the way these redactions were forced to be lifted by a federal judge after he reviewed the unredacted version, questioned the redactions applied by barr's doj, and ordered them redone

well, trump fired Berman for real so obstruction of justice number 3? 4? 5?

"Because you have declared that you have no intention of resigning, I have asked the President to remove you as of today, and he has done so," Barr said.

My book doesn't come out until later in the summer, but I'm going to tell you now one thing that you'll find in it: all of the reporting indicates that Barr is involved in the dubious funding of the Trump 2020 campaign by foreign sources. This is all a lot worse than you realize.
1/ There's a reason that Barr issued an edict forbidding every type of federal investigation that could uncover wrongdoing in the Trump reelection campaign—particularly campaign finance issues—and then opened his door to any evidence that Giuliani might offer him about Joe Biden.
2/ William Barr is a conspirator—alongside his longtime associates Rudy Giuliani, Victoria Toensing and Joe diGenova—in facilitating foreign aid to Trump's campaign. There's a reason for all of the actions he has taken. There's a reason he's lying about Bolton's accurate account.
3/ The evidence is overwhelming—and I've compiled it. Nearly all those who want to illegally aid Trump's campaign have cases Barr can move. Firtash has an extradition case. Kolomoisky has one. Erdogan wants the Halkbank case over. China, ZTE. Barr's fingers are in *all* the pies.
4/ Bolton accurately described his expressions of concern to Barr about precisely these cases and Trump's efforts to impact them. At the time Barr said he agreed, now he's lying and saying that those conversations never happened. Why? Because ultimately they will implicate *him*.
5/ Everyone involved in the money laundering/illegal solicitation of foreign election aid Trump's campaign has been involved in has been clear that Barr is on the team and will play ball as to his piece in all this. Now we know why he perjured himself under questioning by Kamala.
6/ For all that people talk about Barr needing to resign and acting "inappropriately," there is *shockingly* little discussion about the fully-sourced information indicating that he is *actively involved* in the *criminal activities* Trump and his crew are being investigated for.
7/ As an attorney, I understand the reluctance to believe someone who's sworn to uphold the rule of law would be a criminal—it's much easier for us to say that Trump is the likely criminal and that Barr is "only" bending the rules to aid him. I'm afraid it's much worse than that.
8/ For the moment—as it takes a book to lay out all the evidence—I'll say this: if you see Barr's deeds through the lens of him being an *active co-conspirator* in the crimes prosecutors are investigating, you're going to have a *much* easier time understanding what's happening.
9/ I wish you all understood that I'm the sort of guy who doesn't believe in fantastical events. I'm an Occam's Razor guy. But once in a generation, a case comes along in which all the things you think would never actually happen in real life somehow do.

This is that situation.
10/ Right now you shouldn't consider there to be significant daylight between Roger Stone running DOJ or Bill Barr running DOJ. The only difference is that the latter—as an attorney—knows far better than the "dirty trickster" Stone how to make the outcome you want *appear* legal.
PS/ I understand the impatience for Proof of Corruption to come out. Please know that the book is being "crashed"—publishing parlance—as quickly as a book can be crashed. But the book in its *entirety* is nearly 1,000 pages—and it has 5,000 citations. I can't repeat it in tweets.
PS2/ But if you sense real anxiety in my tweeting, understand that it's *not* because I'm just some average dude who doesn't like the look of what he's seeing on his TV. No—I researched and wrote a 1,000-page book on this subject and *know* what's going on and it's terrifying me.
PS3/ Here's the very simplest way to understand it: Berman's SDNY is investigating a man who says Barr is a co-conspirator with Trump and Giuliani in laundering foreign money for the 2020 election. SDNY has the power to cut a deal with this man. Now Barr is trying to fire Berman.
PS4/ If you knew *nothing else* beyond what I just said, you'd see that even the fact that Barr is willing to fire Berman means Barr is willing to create the appearance that he's trying to scuttle a probe that incriminates him. How desperate must Barr be to allow that appearance?
PS5/ If Barr had no fear that what Parnas has said about the "BLT Prime Team"—the team of conspirators Barr acted as an adjunct to—is true, he'd stay *as far as he possibly could* from any machinations involving SDNY. Instead he's frantically trying to get SDNY under his control.

while the trolling is hilarious, its still somewhat troubling since it points to the fact that the low attendance is not because of decline in support. in fact, the trolling could be seen by his supporters as further proof that Trump is being sabotaged and make them more fervent.

But it sure is satisfying seeing those sad empty bleachers.

but also  means perhaps fewer  people got the covid which is good. public safety being so low on list of priorities it's nice a fewer people were there. 

it is pretty funny that Kpop fans and a bunch of teens shit on trumps big night out. 

also?

maybe its good they didn't get covid-19, but these are also people willing to risk their health to support a guy who could care less about them and will most likely still vote for him in November.

I'd be more content with people changing their mind organically

not saying anything about people changing their minds.. his core base will never change their  minds  i think..   i'm mostly thinking about the idea of a "super spreader" event which is what some of the media were calling the rally. sounds more like a porn title.. but anyways.. mass gatherings w/people getting covid would be detrimental to the surrounding city/town/state. a really yuge bad thing. 

as for interfering w/the rally... there were so many cops surrounding the place and one lone protester got arrested and she was just sitting there wearing an I can't breath shirt. haven't seen any footage of protesters blocking metal detectors etc.. not saying it didn't happen but seems like that stuff would all  over the internet already. 

even w/low turnout covid spreading far and wide w/in the community there is certainly possible. thousands of people still present.

Maybe the Trump supporters can't figure out how to record video on their phones?
