Now, it's possible Putin just wants to set a high bar for what constitutes "interference." But still ...

So I can report that @M_C_Klein and @michaelxpettis’ “Trade Wars are Class Wars” is good beach reading. Woke up with a few thoughts after finishing it last night. 1. It’s not about trade wars. It’s a history book about global imbalances. The title is #2020 clickbait.

2. It’s light on the past decade since the financial crisis. In fact it feels like there’s more written about 2008 and MBS than the rise of populism. 3. Hobson’s idea that exports and “over production” are a false economy is seductive. But it ignores human ambition.

4. It is very light, it seems to me, in attributing any changes in economies to technological revolutions. Part of the reason the US has been willing to sacrifice some manufacturing jobs is that whole new industries have been created. This book ignores those new industries.

A few things that people need to understand about the Hagia Sophia, beyond the fact what Erdogan did by re-establishing it as a Mosque was a provocation demanded by the Empire & its Zionist tools, designed to continue global normalization of death, massacres& hate. 1/

This church saw many forced conversions before. It was built in 537ad, by Byzantine Emperor Justinian I, to rival the Catholic St-Peter’s Basilica in Roma, as the Roman Empire split in two. 2/

517 years it was a Byzantine Christian Church, were many of the original sects of Christianity from Syria, Assyria, Iraq & Egypt; were in control. In 1054, it was converted into a Greek Orthodox Church, as the Levant & Egypt were under control of Arab Empires for +300 years. 3/

New Thread: Over the last few days the father, since reunited with Idiot Son (he may or may not be happy about that) has been pursuing a tactic of trying to persuade various institutions to allow him an exemption from Brexit. He started with the EU and felt I should know.

Why he felt I would be in any way interested after last weeks debacle is beyond me. He in particular likes to have my feedback on his emails before he sends them. His key point is always the same, this is not the Brexit he voted for and someone else is to blame.

He asked who to contact at "them EU lot" I said never a bad idea to start at the top and suggested Ursula von der Leyen. He asked if he is a Brit. I had to explain that she is a woman and no Brits still work at the EU as the UK had left the EU. This seemed to surprise him

(THREAD) Here's a checklist of everything that—as a criminal defense lawyer—I'd expect a client to do if he were the U.S. president, a career criminal, headed toward a possible election defeat, and aware that he might be indicted post-election. I hope you'll read on and retweet.

1. PARDON ROGER STONE. Stone could have gotten his prison sentence reduced by flipping on Trump over pre-election collusion with three nations (Russia, Israel, and Turkey) and Trump's chargeable lies to Mueller. Stone made clear he was ready to flip. STATUS: SENTENCE COMMUTED.

2. PARDON MICHAEL FLYNN. Flynn—a pre-/post-election foreign agent—could've flipped on Trump over pre-election collusion with Russia, Israel and Turkey but didn't (and then broke his plea deal). STATUS: PARDON or COMMUTATION FLOATED and ANTICIPATED, if Flynn case isn't DISMISSED.
