Fox News current headline:

"State Department Official says Ukraine not the only country to face US aid hold."

(So does that mean Trump is bribing other countries for his own gain too?)

Whereas CNN has it:

"Top Pentagon official undercuts GOP rebuttal."

Love me some Fiona hill

“Some of you on this committee appear to believe that Russia and its security services did NOT conduct a campaign against our country—and that perhaps, somehow…Ukraine did.

This is a FICTIONAL narrative that has been perpetrated…by the Russian security services.”


he's not denying what was said…in fact makes him look more like a slimy swamp creature

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
I have been watching people making phone calls my entire life. My hearing is, and has been, great. Never have I been watching a person making a call, which was not on speakerphone, and been able to hear or understand a conversation. I’ve even tried, but to no avail. Try it live!

Also, he's wrong, I have often overheard the other person on the phone.  Yes anecdotal, but what a weak defense

I think that the Dems should agree to a 'minority day of hearings' under the condition that people like Mulvaney, Pompeo and Bolten testify
They won't, so it would be easy to say "hey we totally were ok with doing your 'minority day of hearings'"

this could get interesting…..

John Bolton @AmbJohnBolton
We have now liberated the Twitter account, previously suppressed unfairly in the aftermath of my resignation as National Security Advisor.  More to come…..

Although this seems to be the consensus on this
@MerrillLynched
John Bolton now free to plug his upcoming book while refusing to testify before the House Intelligence Committee.


update and the plot thickens….
"In full disclosure, the @WhiteHouse never returned access to my Twitter account. Thank you to @twitter for standing by their community standards and rightfully returning control of my account."

this seems like big news…but probably won't happen
and maybe it will just be Mitch lobbing in softballs and not allowing dems to cross examine?

President Trump said in a press conference on Tuesday that he would like Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, Secretary of Energy Rick Perry and "many other people" to testify in a Senate trial if the House votes to approve articles of impeachment.

Whatever


I like AOC more than Bernie or Warren

Interesting to contemplate whether she would have made a better candidate

1. Little comparative baggage
2. Knows how to communicate in a modern way
3. Young
4. Minority


I think democrats lose next year and she runs on 2024

Man Nikki is going full batshit crazy as of late, is she looking for another appointment in the Trump WH?

Nikki Haley says the Confederate flag was about "service, and sacrifice, and heritage" until Dylan Roof "hijacked" it


this one reminds me of the guy who showed up at Comet Ping Ping with gun
Man suspected of gunning down reputed mob boss mistook him as 'deep state' figure
The defense will claim that Anthony Comello was a Qanon conspiracy theorist when he shot Francesco "Franky Boy" Cali on Staten Island.

Can she even run for president in 2024 if she's not turning 35 until three weeks before and election? She couldn't have been a candidate for 2020.

I'd be about as excited to vote of a 20something as I would a 70something.

the moment we've been waiting for…

House Democrats unveiled two articles of impeachment against President Trump on Tuesday morning, charging him with abuse of power in the Ukraine affair and obstruction of Congress.

Seems somewhat anticlimactic

We all know they could have a had a list of 100 items, but choose to keep it short and sweet as there is no faith the American public can understand complex things


and why can't an adult in the room take trumps phone away….
Read the Transcripts! “us” is a reference to USA, not me!

isn't a little ironic (in the allanis way) that Trump is meeting with Lavrov as the articles of Impeachment are being read out

So Sergey Lavrov is just changing the batteries in all the bugs in the oval?

I love how the Russians just throw Trump under the bus at any time its possible

Lavrov also met with Trump at the White House on Tuesday. Trump said in a tweet that they discussed election meddling. Lavrov, however, disputed the White House account telling reporters "we haven't even actually discussed elections."
