I had heard about Arnie's anti gerrymandering campaign but didn't realise it went beyond California. Independent redistricting seems like a very good idea, depending on how it's implemented of course.

Apart from this clearly being not written by Donald, I feel like there has been a shift further into conspiracy theory territory in his missives recently

Looks like we're going to be hearing the phrase "Presidential Harrassment" non stop for I guess 2 years then.

"Presidential harassment" makes me think of the president's sexual harrassment, so I don't think it will be a very effective phrase for me and those like me (college educated white men) but i'm probably not the platonic ideal of that particular group.

It's loving brilliant. What could possibly be less presidential than having to invent a new term to describe your hurt feelings at people investigating your corruption?

Full thread on what the judge in that lawsuit is doing:

https://twitter.com/dominicholden/status/1062038426806030336

Basically democrats pointed out to him that Republicans are only looking for remedies they can lie to the public and claim were required because of fraud and he's not willing to play that game; he will push them to agree on greater transparency but will not do anything to let Republicans lie and claim there's any evidence of malfeasance.

It seems pretty extraordinary, the Republican lawyers seem to be pretty openly saying they want to cause a big mess over nothing that's concrete? Aren't there rules against vexatious litigation?

Imagine being so broke brained you agree to resign for Donald Trump to save face.

Yeah he was clearly not at all happy about it, close to tears on his final day etc. Does getting fired remove a pension or something from him? He's only been doing the job 5 minutes, it can't be that much. It seems absolutely spineless when he could have refused a la Rosenstein.

I hated this poo poo when GW did it too. France has been one of our strongest allies through history. making GBS threads on them because they respectfully don't want to go on a misadventure with us is weak as hell

Is there any chance that this Facebook bullshit ends in a world where Facebook doesn't exist anymore? I don't even care if Zuckerberg ends up penniless in a ditch somewhere--I would just like Facebook to end up like MySpace.

This grand committee that's sitting in London was talking about breaking up Facebook (/ whatsapp etc). Also about RICO which I don't understand but Ken Popehat gets upset about.

The committee pointed out that the 23 of them represent 400 million people.
