1. And how come I've never seen him interviewed anywhere?

But I hope he's right!

[melman]

25. Because he has zero credibility

Rachel Maddow talks about this stuff every night, for a full hour pretty much.

That's a lot of air time to fill. You'd figure she'd have had this guy on at least once.

But she hasn't. Must be a reason for that.

43. Who did Keith Olbermann thank in this tweet?

Claude motherf*cking Taylor, that's who.

2. Not if Sessions has anything to do with it

[pnwmom]

6. He worked at the Clinton WH for several years and in 3 campaigns.

He was the Director of Volunteers, managing a small staff, and oversaw 3000 volunteers around the world.

He's retained some of his connections over the years.

We all learned our lesson with Fitzmas, but here's why I'm hoping this is different. Claude Taylor is an ally -- and he is willing to stake his reputation on what he is reporting from his sources.

And he's already been right on some key things. Among other things he reported on the two Grand juries before Comey confirmed that he's working with two Federal prosecutors.

[Warren DeMontague]

8. Yes, it looks like he and louise were onto something.

Saw that right after i wrote that post.

[pnwmom]

9. Another reason I'm hopeful: DT didn't fire Comey for being too mean to Hillary. We know that.

Without a doubt.

So hopefully Mensch and Taylor have been right all along, that Comey was actually pursuing this seriously.

[Warren DeMontague]

11. Oh, i think this is beyond conclusive proof that there's more than just smoke there

I mean theyve been acting guilty from the get-go.

My fear is just that they'll get away with it.

[pnwmom]

14. Taylor has been saying it's too late for DT to stop it. The train has already left the station.

(My words, not his.)

I have to hope he's right.

[dchill]

26. "Out, damned spot! Out, I say!"

Guilty conscience will put.

[flotsam]

10. A bondo-patched car?

Smarmy much? What has a hobby of auto restoration got to do with his veracity? That's right-none. How does one gain a large twitter following-by being more times right than wrong, maybe?

[Warren DeMontague]

12. Jesus, lighten up, francis.

I mention the car because it is featured prominently in his twitter profile.

[flotsam]

13. Yep-you may be right...

You've also got me laughing. And yes I really want him to be right. And Francis should be capitalized, so there!

[Warren DeMontague]

15. Indeed.

I have nothing against bondo, mind you. I always thought it was amazing stuff.

I want him to be right, too. 5 minutes after I posted that, cnn dropped the thing about grand jury subpoenas, so I will gladly acknowledge Mr. Taylor may be onto something.

[Ellipsis]

37. four hundred horsepower under that hood...

I've been following him for a month and he's been one hundred percent on the money on everything coming down..

[MelissaB]

19. You've seen this by now, right?

CNN exclusive: Grand jury subpoenas issued in FBI's Russia investigation

http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/09/politics/grand-jury-fbi-russia/index.html

[Warren DeMontague]

32. Yeah, about 4 minutes after I wrote that post.

Hey, no one will be happier than me if dude is proven fully correct.

[hack89]

4. I love Fitzmas. Nt

[HopeAgain]

5. Who is Claude Taylor?

[pnwmom]

7. See post #6, above. nt

[Glimmer of Hope]

17. I am not so sure.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/5/5/1659292/-No-Claude-Taylor-and-company-are-not-reputable-sources-on-Trump-Russia

[pnwmom]

18. Claude Taylor is a real person who had a real job in the Clinton WH, Director of Volunteers,

overseeing 3,000 volunteers, as well as working on 3 campaigns. And he's staking his reputation on his reports, and he keeps getting things right.

Like he talked about the sealed indictments before CNN just confirmed them.

Who's Bob Johnson? Some guy on kos.

[HopeAgain]

20. I am not in the least convinced

A volunteer director has sources at Justice.

[SticksnStones]

22. A few beers after work...you make friends who, over the years, move to interesting jobs

And someone with a scoop would sooner tell an old friend than some shark journalist, IMO

[pnwmom]

23. Exactly. It's called networking and political people are experts at it. n/t

[HopeAgain]

27. Y'all believe whoever you want, I'm still extremely skeptical

Kinda reminds me of the "Jonah" character on Veep.

[SticksnStones]

44. And the part where they've been saying there's a grand jury, weeks before the MSM

and that turned out to be true....or from the very start, saying there's Russian involvement in our elections and the MSM said nothing for quite some time...any of that erase some doubt or lend credibility to the sources Claude tweets? Or how about when Claude actually did tweet something inaccurate and corrected it immediately and took his Twitter lumps publically?

Twitter seems to be flushing out this story beats ahead of the MSM...its been interesting to observe at least.

[melman]

24. He's the guy whose 'sources' said Trump was going to resign

Back in March

28. You are misrepresenting Taylor's tweet.

"Considering" is not the same as "going to".
Please consider posting fewer inaccuracies.

[melman]

34. No, I absolutely am not

'Considering' is a weasel word, no doubt employed to give Taylor an out, while still enabling him to rope in the rubes.

[Mr. Evil]

39. Taylor doesn't need an out... Trump does.

[greyl]

41. But YOU are the one who thought "considering" meant "actually doing" something.

Please read for comprehension, and consider this: Greenworks lawn mower recall notice

[pnwmom]

29. "considering options" doesn't mean what you think it means. nt

[melman]

35. I know exactly what it means

It's the kind of slippery language fakers use to dupe a gullible audience.

[pnwmom]

36. No, you don't. Because you said it meant he was "going to resign." That's not what

considering options, including resignation, means.

[NightWatcher]

16. What the Hell does he know? Sure, he's been right about everything so far....

There are a few people who are fun to follow and have been right to date.

[SticksnStones]

21. Saw a tweet that read 4 warrants confirmed are going out

To Tillerson, Page, Manafort and Flynn.

Twitter is exploding...I lost track of the tweet...so RUMINT, I guess...rumour intelligence.

Yeah, I know, it's Twitter -the Wild West of information- but dayum...

[pnwmom]

30. Subpoenas are going out. I haven't heard about warrants. n/t

[SticksnStones]

42. Found the tweet

Again, it's the Wild West....so who knows what's true or not...except a lot of what's been tweeted for months is actually turning out to be true~

[Mr. Ected]

31. One thing is for sure: we'll know very soon whether Claude Taylor and Louise Mensch

Are credible sources, or just in it for their own self-aggrandizement.

We will know soon.

Please be true. Please be true.

[pnwmom]

40. They've already been right on major things, including the Grand jury subpoenas.

They don't have to be 100% right 100% of the time.

But their sources seem as good as most reporters.

[tclambert]

33. Trump's response:

[tenorly]

38. LEAK those suckers!

We're talking about the most extensive and consequential act of treason in American history. We deserve to know who was indicted here, and why.
