One more - thematic in conflict: integrity in statecraft and much else beside ("If they ask you why they died . . . ."); feudal-medieval mafia, Donald knows . . .); medieval v. modern - archaic: Trump & Putin both: criminals & political criminals.

Never forget or forgive what #DonaldTrump has been and remains for all time. #AmericanCriminal; #AmericanTraitor; #VileIgnoramus.

Second: try not to confuse #Americans with #DonaldTrump and his degrading and insulting cabal of fascistic business interests and incompetents in office.

For forensic analysis, a decent investigation would include a frame by frame review of event footage with a clear and confirmable chain of custody. :( Unfortunately, the criminal knows how to cover his tracks and has both the power and tools to confuse the same for all but disciplined experts.

I'm trying to leave a lot regarding the coup frozen on X. We have plenty of "data" for seeing what's on our plate but little in the way of assembly for response.

Trump may have been compromised and leveraged by Russia x money x vice a long time ago. "Trump, Money Laundering, Russia" yields results on the web; the Steele memorandum may be worth another perusal. Add his indictments, recently politically but not forensically neutralized.
