I have a couple minutes so let’s dive into the Unz section, starting on page 31. #ReappropriateReads

Alright - a couple more minutes to kill as a wait for a pickup. A little more #ReappropriateReads. Click through to the thread to follow along.

Ok y’all - it’s been a long day. I’ll pick this up tomorrow with another session of #ReappropriateReads

Today, a federal judge ruled that Harvard’s race-conscious admissions policy does not violate the law, a powerful blow to the SFFA-backed attempt to strike down affirmative action — although we all expect SFFA to appeal the decision. #ReappropriateReads the ruling here.

When last we left off we were learning more about how Russian hackers catfished real activists — both Trump supporters as well as BLM activists and other progressives — to organize offline action. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMajorityLive

I’m stuck at the Genius Bar waiting for an expert because something’s wrong with my phone so... #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMajorityLive here we go!

I can’t help but wonder if I’ve interacted with any Russian-created fake progressive accounts — and sowing that suspicion and distrust of my fellow activists is ALSO the point of this pro-Trump propaganda campaign. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMajorityLive

We’re talking about millions and millions of impressions — all to damage Clinton and elect Trump. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMajorityLive

Russians spent over $100,000 in Facebook ads to elect Trump. Considering how little it costs to advertise on Facebook, that’s A LOT of ads. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMajorityLive

As someone who operates in progressive online spaces, I find it deeply unsettling to think of Russian propagandists adopting digital blackface and other marginalized identities in order to leverage and caricature them. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMajorityLive

One of the eerie things this section covers is how Russian operatives purported to be not only Tea Party anti-immigrant groups, but also BLM groups and pro-LGBT rights groups. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMajorityLive

When last we left this intrepid report, we were learning about Russian operations on social media. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMajorityLive

I have a few minutes before a meeting on the hour, so it’s back to the #MuellerReport! #ReappropriateReads #ModelMajorityLive

Apparently members of the Trump team deleted relevant digital records that could have contained evidence of criminal coordination or conspiracy with Russia. But her emails tho’. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

That the Trump admin has filtered all of the Investigation through the self-serving lens of whether or not they are guilty of conspiracy, while downplaying the serious concerns of electoral interference is itself damning. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

There may not be evidence of criminal conspiracy, but the Trump campaign clearly knew about Russian efforts to manipulate a US election and did absolutely nothing to stop it. That may not be a crime, but it’s also not ok. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

The Executive Summay details several contacts between the Trump campaign and agents of the Russian government. In other words, there’s no evidence of collusion — but not for lack of trying on the part of the Trump campaign. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

The campaign is in essence saying they were catfished by the Russians. But did they not do the basic level of googling that Nev and Max routinely do? Hard to believe — and if not, why not? Did they not want to know? #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

Investigation concludes no evidence of Trump campaign coordinating with the Russians on these rallies, but I’d like to know to what extent they suspected or knew that these groups were not who they claimed to be. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

Russian agents not only conducted online campaigns but apparently also posed as US groups and individuals to contact the Trump campaign to. organize real-life rallies. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

First section establishes that Russian IRA launched an online campaign to manipulate the 2016 presidential election by promoting Trump and discouraging support for Clinton. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

Ok took a quick break to work on some graphic design stuff for the hubby. Back now and ready to tackle the Executive Summary for a bit. #ReappropriateReads #MuellerReport #ModelMAJORITYLive

Without an interview it was unlikely the Investigation would be able to uncover evidence speaking towards intent and pre-existing knowledge that would support a criminal indictment. The president’s team knew that, too. #ReappropriateReads #ModelMAJORITYLive #MuellerReport

So this Investigation was hamstrung from the moment this legal interpretation of terms was met with refusal by the president’s team to allow him to be interviewed. #ReappropriateReads #ModelMAJORITYLive #MuellerReport

It would not be impossible to find evidence of this without sub poena’ing the president, but it would be exceedingly difficult. #ReappropriateReads #ModelMAJORITYLive #MuellerReport

This section focuses on the Investigation’s definition of terms and charges. Notice how both “conspiracy” and “coordination” definitions require some evidence of pre-knowledge and intent? #ReappropriateReads #ModelMAJORITYLive #MuellerReport

I mean, this is the key thing to keep in mind. This report can only be interpreted for the affirmative evidence it presents, not as the absence of additional evidence. #ReappropriateReads #ModelMAJORITYLive #MuellerReport

That’s a few thoughts I have as we start but let’s actually read this thing. I’m on the table of contents so let’s actually get into some meat. #ReappropriateReads #ModelMAJORITYLive #MuellerReport

Also, his investigation provides political evidence of wrongdoing and demand further investigation from the Hill. #ReappropriateReads #ModelMAJORITYLive #MuellerReport

That Mueller ultimately concludes that the evidence isn’t strong enough for charges against a sitting president doesn’t mean that had he been able to conduct a real-time interview that such evidence would not have been found. #ReappropriateReads #ModelMAJORITYLive #MuellerReport
