An Ode to my new friend Orbie.
At first, I didn't realize you were just saying hi when you ate the whole universe with me inside.

I see now, it was a reasonable thing to do. From inside the outside looking in, I didn't know which way to go.
Maybe I did run away a bit, though I didn't offend.
Perhaps I was a little scared, though that quickly came to an end. When I came to see you as you are, I found my own mixed intentions.
I don't know what made think I could or even should understand. The closer I got, the more I came to see, you were just making your way though this world, just like me.
I don't know what made me think that any of it mattered, or if it did, would it still matter in the end?
Nonetheless, seeing you there, felt freeing to me. A sense of order in the nonsense of the germane.
Somehow, seeing your eye. Witnessing the center of your soul surrounding me. It made me feel, good to be alive.
I wondered, were we two parts of the same whole?
Then I wondered, if we were, where could we go?
I wonder, will you remember me should I wake up and discover that I've never slept a wink in my life? I am fairly certain it doesn't matter either way.
Though, I've already grown quite fond of you, and find myself eager to learn more of your ways.
I've made you a nest, a place to call home.
If you choose to enjoy it, please come and go as you like, you're always free to roam.

Trump is gonna let the Mueller investigation end all on it's own. It's obvious. All the hysteria of the past 2 weeks about his supposed impending firing of Mueller was a distraction. He was never going to fire Mueller and he's not going to


Mueller's officially end his investigation all on his own and he's gonna say he found no evidence of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election.

Democrats & DNC Media are going to LITERALLY have nothing coherent to say in response to that.

Mueller's team was 100% partisan.

That's why it's brilliant. NOBODY will be able to claim this team of partisan Democrats didn't go the EXTRA 20 MILES looking for ANY evidence they could find of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election

They looked high.

They looked low.

They looked underneath every rock, behind every tree, into every bush.

And they found...NOTHING.

Those saying Mueller will file obstruction charges against Trump: laughable.

What documents did Trump tell the Mueller team it couldn't have? What witnesses were withheld and never interviewed?

THERE WEREN'T ANY.

Mueller got full 100% cooperation as the record will show.
The entire discussion around Facebook’s disclosures of what happened in 2016 is very frustrating. No exec stopped any investigations, but there were a lot of heated discussions about what to publish and when.


In the spring and summer of 2016, as reported by the Times, activity we traced to GRU was reported to the FBI. This was the standard model of interaction companies used for nation-state attacks against likely US targeted.

In the Spring of 2017, after a deep dive into the Fake News phenomena, the security team wanted to publish an update that covered what we had learned. At this point, we didn’t have any advertising content or the big IRA cluster, but we did know about the GRU model.

This report when through dozens of edits as different equities were represented. I did not have any meetings with Sheryl on the paper, but I can’t speak to whether she was in the loop with my higher-ups.

In the end, the difficult question of attribution was settled by us pointing to the DNI report instead of saying Russia or GRU directly. In my pre-briefs with members of Congress, I made it clear that we believed this action was GRU.
