Did Trump convince Spicer to "retire" from his position because Scaramucci would let him tweet whatever? This series of tweets are insane, stupid and nonsensical even for him.

The reporting I've seen suggests that he was surprised by Spicer resignation and asked him to stay.

U.S. investigators examining money laundering accusations against President Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort hope to push him to cooperate with their probe into possible collusion between Trump's campaign and Russia, two sources with direct knowledge of the investigation said.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team is examining Manafort's financial and real estate records in New York as well as his involvement in Ukrainian politics, the officials said.

Between 2006 and 2013, Manafort bought three New York properties, including one in Trump Tower in Manhattan. He paid for them in full and later took out mortgages against them. A former senior U.S. law enforcement official said that tactic is often used as a means to hide the origin of funds gained illegally. Reuters has no independent evidence that Manafort did this.

The sources also did not say whether Mueller has uncovered any evidence to charge Manafort with money laundering, but they said doing so is seen by investigators as critical in getting his full cooperation in their investigation.

"If Mueller's team can threaten criminal charges against Manafort, they could use that as leverage to convince him to cooperate," said one of the sources.

Manafort’s spokesman, Jason Maloni, said, “Paul Manafort is not a cooperating witness. Once again there is no truth to the disinformation put forth by anonymous sources and leakers.”

You're a big guy.
Worth noting that by mentioning pardoning he is actually demonstrating that the reporting (Washington Post, IIRC) where he was exploring the options of pardoning was true. So much for fake news.

Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions

it's an anti Israeli-apartheid group and Gillibrand just co-sponsored a bill that makes it illegal to boycott Israel, punishable by up to 20 years in prison
Welcome to the realities of being a US Senator from NY. Performative theatre via penalties and rules that have a very low chance of being applied and an even lower chance of holding up in court is actually way better than par here.

"she only pretends to militantly support apartheid" is not as compelling a defense as you think

that's fucking disgusting, imagine saying we should run Democrats in the south who rail on how bad black people are because of the electoral realities
