Today, if Johnson bothers to show up for the impeachment trial, he’ll hear a flimsy defense of the indefensible. Then he faces an existential, character-defining choice: Country and Constitution, or party and personal power. We have a guess. But first, let’s review some clues.

 Just a couple of days before the impeachment trial began, Ron Johnson said that there was “no reason” to hold the trial—and that barring Trump from ever holding federal public office again would “pre-emptively” disenfranchise people. https://t.co/4Nn4aGR0EV
Ron Johnson knows something about disenfranchisement. In fact, he’s a big fan of it. He sought to disenfranchise millions of voters who chose Biden, spreading lies and fueling the fire of the January 6th insurrection.
He went on Fox News to claim there was voter fraud, that “millions of Americans have suspicions,” and made accusations about the validity of absentee ballots.
https://t.co/vIV0nvYv4y
Johnson went on in that same interview to explicitly call for Congress to “delay accepting a particular state’s electors.” He announced that he was going to vote against accepting Arizona’s electors, feeding the fury of the Jan 6th insurrectionists.
After the devastating attack on the Capitol, Johnson backtracked his initial intention to vote against the certification of the Electoral College, saying that he had only wanted to “have the debate” and that we have to “respect the rule of law.”
This was particularly shameless given his previous call to delay accepting the election result “until we actually investigate.” https://t.co/KdamfgRlUX
On a right-wing radio interview, Johnson said that convicting Trump on impeachment would “overturn the wishes of future voters.”
Again: Johnson is enthusiastic about overturning the wishes of current voters. What he cares about is just the past, present, and future voters who might support *him.* Democracy be damned.
Weeks later, Johnson was getting ready for the 2nd impeachment trial of Trump. Out of nowhere, he casually threw out a wild, baseless claim: that impeaching Trump is a “diversionary operation” to deflect from Speaker Pelosi being the one to blame for the Capitol violence. Um?
If this sounds offensively unreal to you, well, it is. But it’s totally on-brand for Johnson. https://t.co/t09KwHbBkW
Johnson has argued for years that the FBI’s investigation into Russia’s support for Trump, and everything that came after it, was all a “diversionary operation” to cover up for the FBI exonerating Hillary Clinton from supposed email crimes. https://t.co/w9zPsp9qcb
(Speaking of diversionary tactics, Johnson does not fail to bring up Hillary Clinton every chance he gets)
https://t.co/4v8uCmdpZF
Early last year, Johnson accused the deep state and the Obama Administration of “an attempted coup” against the incoming Trump Administration, “rather than that peaceful transition of power.” Hmm, if only there were a clearer example of an attempted coup. https://t.co/1YpAYuUVo2
Even after all the division that Ron Johnson has caused and is personally responsible for, he is now arguing that Congress doing its duty to impeach Trump somehow betrays President Biden’s promise to unify America. https://t.co/bjiBzmNi7j
Oh, and speaking of unity: prior to the 2020 election, Johnson claimed, at a Janesville Trump rally, that the country would be unrecognizable if Joe Biden won and that Biden supporters “don’t particularly love America.” Where’s the healing spirit, Ron? https://t.co/q4lGGPkYx5
*Cue petty video of Johnson saying he has “nothing to congratulate him for” after being asked about Biden’s win* https://t.co/5DEMvgS7ks
Johnson has said that impeaching Trump the second time around would be unconstitutional, but he’s never really specific about it. His only argument is that Trump has left office. Which, as @RepRaskin devastatingly proved, is no argument at all.
https://t.co/h96pwPv6W9
Ron Johnson fanned conspiracy theories, threatened our democracy, watched Trump incite an insurrection, blamed Pelosi, and now says if Trump is convicted—and barred from running again—it would “disenfranchise future voters.”
So, to conclude, we don’t know for 100% certain how Johnson will vote on conviction on the article of impeachment. But one thing is clear: Ron Johnson, @TheWorstSenator, needs to resign. If he doesn’t, we’ll vote him out.

BOTH @GenFlynn and #AdmMikeRogers went to Trump Tower on Nov 17, 2016.

IMPORTANT DATE to remember!!!! (THREAD)

AND Adm. Rogers arrived at Trump tower on NOVEMBER 17, 2016.... Rogers discovered @BarackObama ‘702’ Illegal Spying Operation and Briefed Trump @ Trump Tower...


THE NEXT DAY (Nov. 18, 2016) @realDonaldTrump MOVED transition meetings to private golf club in New Jersey... It was even reported in the

The following week (4 days later) POTUS tweeted, "Great meetings will take place today at Trump Tower concerning the formation of the people who will run our government for the next 8 years."


The only problem for [THEM] spying??? Trump Team ALREADY MOVED OUT OF TRUMP TOWER!!!!

This was a SETUP by #POTUS and Team because they KNEW about surveillance (From Adm Rogers/Flynn)....

(Trump later in 2017 tweeted that he "just found out" about Obama surveillance...KEK!)

A story ...

In 1994, I was teaching U.S. history and American government at Oak Ridge HS in El Dorado Hills, California.

I had three bright students who were my TAs. The 20th anniversary of Richard Nixon's resignation was a few months away. I decided to have ... 1/


my students -- Sherilyn Peek, Aaron Leahy and Nicole Poimiroo -- take on an extra project. They contacted dozens of people who were in some way involved with the Watergate saga. Politicians, lawyers, political appointees, journalists and others. 2/

They spent weeks, before the internet existed, tracking down addresses. Then they sent a short letter that asked the recipients to respond to one question: What should America learn from Watergate?

Before long, responses started to show up in my mailbox at school. 3/

Archibald Cox replied, and I'm especially struck by this sentence: "...we should be reminded of the corrupt influence of great power, especially when the power is in the hands of someone who is willing to resort to any tactics, however wrong, to retain and increase his power."4/


Richard Kleindienst wrote his response by hand ... "Our Constitution worked! The federal judiciary worked. The Congress and a free press worked. That our Constitution works is the magic of America." 5/

Typically excellent piece from @dsquareddigest The exponential insight is especially neat. Think of it a little like fishing...today you can’t export oysters to the EU (because you simply aren’t allowed to), tomorrow you don’t have a fish exporting business (to the EU).


The extremely small minority of people who known anything about this who think that Brexit will be good for the City make a number of arguments which I shall address in turn...

1. They need us more than we need them. This is a variant of the German carmakers argument. And we know how that went...Business will follow the profit opportunity and if that has moved then so will the business...

And what do we mean by us / we. We’re not talking about massed ranks of Euro investing / trading etc blue blooded British institutions.

Au contraire. We’re talking about the London based subs of US, Asian and indeed European capital markets players...As soon as they think the profit opportunity has moved then so will they...it’s a market innit...

"When I see Harris & her husband, I see us. Will more BW begin to see the same potential 4 romantic love w/white men? Harris' next 4 yrs in the WH could help provide an answer. The power of Harris'

Black men, you are officially expendable, at least have the media tell you. And black women, to hell w/black men. White people will reward you handsomely following Harris' lead. Never forget this country was founded on breaking up black families. I predicted this would happen.

Make Michelle Obama white & Barack Obama's campaign doesn't sniff an ounce of support from black women. The reason being was that the picture of an intact black family in power was a beautiful sight for black women & fulfilled their greatest dreams. There is nothing wrong w/this.

There is nothing wrong w/wanting to see black people in love together in power. It's a beautiful sight, but what of Harris? If the Obama's marriage communicated to black people the power of black love in power, what does Kamala Harris' marriage to a white man communicate?

That black men are expendable & that 2 rise in a white world, black men are baggage that U need 2 discard. Think I'm off kilter w/this? Consider the fact that many black women in powerful positions either say little of or attribute little of their success 2 their black fathers.

WHO ARE VALAKHILYAS?

Valakhilyas are 60000 Rishis who are thumb-sized. They were born to Kratu and Kriya. Rig Veda says that they sprang from the hairs of Brahma.
They move in front of Surya dev’s chariot as Sun moves daily and
shine like brilliant lights due to severe tapasya.


Tamil literature says that the main task of Valakhilyas is to prevent human beings from being scorched. They absorb the excess heat from the sun by travelling in front of him. They, in turn, get energy from Skanda and Ma Durga. The food of Valakhilyas is only wind.
@SriRamya21


Once, Rishi Kashyap performed a yagna and invited all the Devas and Rishis to help him. Indra brought a whole mountain of trees for firewood. The Valakhilyas were hardly able to lift anything but leaves. Even when they were moving leaves, they fell into rain water puddles.


Indra made fun of them. So they cursed Indra saying that his slayer would be born as the son of Kashyapa. When Indra apologized, they modified the curse that the son shall be initially an enemy of Indra, but later will become his friend.


This son born later to Kashyapa was Garuda. He flew to Indraloka to get Amrita and defeated Indra.
Later, he restored amrit vessel to Indra and was honoured as the King of birds and as the mount of Sri Vishnu.

Simple and effective way 2 make Money


Idea 1:- Use pivot level like 14800 in case of nifty and sell 14800straddle monthly expiry (365+335) exit if nifty closes on daily basis below S1 or above R1

After closing below S1 if it closes above S1 next day or any day enter the same position again vice versa for R1

Idea2:- Use R1 and S1 corresponding strikes multiple
Incase of R1 15337 take 15300ce
N in case of S1 14221 use 14200pe
Sell both and hold till expiry or exit if nifty closes below S1 or above R1 around closing
If the same bounces above S1 and falls below R1 re-enfer same strikes

Use same criteria for nifty, usdinr and banknifty

(This is must)Use this margin rule for 1lot banknifty pair keep 4Lax margin
For nifty one lot keep 3Lax
For usdinr 100lots keep 4Lax

I bet you if you do this on consistent basis your ROI will be more than 70% on yearly basis.

Couldn't explain easier than this

Criticisms are most welcomed.

❤✈️🌎 2 years ago today @JamesIvings and I sold all our belongings and left the UK to travel for a year. We've never been happier and we have no plans to ever return there 🙂

Thread 👇

Since then we've started a remote web dev company @SquarecatWebDev and been lucky enough to have completed several freelance projects 💻 that have kept us on the road.

In the last few months we've become a huge part of this amazing new Maker community and have found so many new friends from @makerskitchen, @women_make_ and several others! 🥰

We love travelling together (even if I'm only a glorified laptop watcher 😒) but we're both much happier being able to share our ideas outside of our own little bubble and our products have benefitted too!

Here's to another year of nomading with my favourite person and to the Maker community continuing to grow with our help! Maybe one day we'll all get to meet each other ✌️ 💛

Did you know?

Rani Bhabani was the Queen of Natore, Bengal or 'Natorer Rani' as she was famously called. She made great contributions in Tarapith & renovated Benaras.

In Varanasi, Durga Kund Mandir was constructed by Rani Bhabani in the 18th century.


Born in Chhatimgram village, Bogra District,Her father's name was Atmaram Choudhury.Bhabani was married off to Raja Ramkanta Moitra,the then zamindar of Rajshahi.After his death, Bhabani became the zamindar, and started being referred to as Rani.She was known as Ardhabangeshwari.

A woman as a zamindar was extremely rare in those days, but Rani Bhabani managed the vast Rajshahi zamindari most efficiently and effectively for over four decades.
Maharani Bhavani was very pious in her personal life. She passed her life in a strict disciplined way.


She conducted the administrative work skillfully. As a Maharani she was an impartial judge. Rani Bhavani had a very hard time during the fag end of her life. The Zamindari (estate) incurred serious loss due to the change of the revenue policy of the company.

In spite of being the owner of a large Zamindari (estate), she had to depend on the stipend of the government in the later part of her life. The amount of this stipend gradually decreased and became Rs. 1000/- only in the end.

The 2020s will be known as the Remote Work decade

A few predictions of what is likely to emerge

[ a thread ] 💻🏠🌍

🏦Third Space: Office and Working from Home will be joined by somewhere close by that a number of people will use

Supermarkets or local bank branches should emerge as a convenient ubiquitous location option – if they are smart

⏰Asynchronous Work: Offices are instantaneous gratification distraction factories where synchronous work makes it impossible to get stuff done

Tools that enable asynchronous work are the most important thing globally remote teams need. A lot of startups will try to tackle this

⚽️Hobbie Renaissance: Remote working will lead to a rise in people participating in hobbies and activities which link them to people in their local community

This will lead to deeper, more meaningful relationships which overcome societal issues of loneliness and issolation

🚜Rural Living: World-class people will move to smaller cities, have a lower cost of living & higher quality of life

These regions must innovate quickly to attract that wealth. Better schools, faster internet connections are a must
