Yesterday, Trump defended the Saudi Crown Prince in the Oval Office.
He said he had “nothing” to do with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.
But I reviewed a call while serving on Trump’s NSC that I believe would be of interest to the Khashoggi family and the American people.
Release the transcript.

Brazen public capitulation to a client state is not what a powerful nation does. This nonsense will effect the dollar's status as a reserve currency.
A mere 24 years after Saudi Arabia struck America on 9/11, child rapist Donald Trump declared them a major US ally.

Can't we just bonesaw Trump's fingers off? All the way down to the third knuckle. Saw his thumb clean off.
Pardon, I mean "things happen" Trump's fingers off. My mistake.

This is how the depraved, unprincipled Trump excuses the murder of Jamal Khashoggi : blame the victim.
“A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about, whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happen,” he says sitting with the culpable MBS.
Sickening and infuriating.

Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

This man will get to know subordination in the inside of an American prison cell before he dies.
If a competent court finds that he's too addled by his dementia after all this time, we can still condemn him to an asylum for the rest of his miserable, unearned life.
Let justice be done.

Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?
TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question

A national embarrassment. An everlasting stain. A lesson that must not be forgotten.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

If someone asks you to do evil data science, just don't. They need you to make the evil thing; don't do it.
license plate data merged with credit header data, marriage records, vehicle ownership, and voter registrations, in one app for ICE agents. oh and it sends push notifications when someone they're seeking is nearby.

Material viewed by 404 Media shows data giant Thomson Reuters enriches license plate data with marriage, voter, and ownership records. The tool can predict where a car may be in the future.

Lindsey Halligan made 3 fuck-ups in the grand jury:
1) She implied to GJ Comey would HAVE to testify
2) There was more evidence they weren't sharing
3) She does not appear to have re-presented the 2 charges GJ approved
Here's the third (which I predicted Friday).
There's no indictment.

It’s how you end up with language like “paperwork American” or the idea that Thanksgiving turkey is some sort of natural ethno-national tradition that certain other groups are incapable of ever appreciating
