Emails show Trump administration tried to justify withholding Ukraine aid after the fact

Wait, you mean Donald Trump’s decision to withhold vital aid from Ukraine wasn’t based on any sort of meticulous review? And so they had to create an ad hoc justification for … whatever the fuck he was doing? According to The Washington Post, a review of Trump’s decision to withhold aid from...

Rudy-colludy: “Do you honestly think I’m intimidated?”

So much deflection, so little time. First group from State Department FOIA document dump contains some of the contacts Giuliani was making, as the walls close in on Rudy. Remember that these are documents that the State Department refuses to release to Congress. This group includes documentation for the smear...

The Wrangling of (the) Hurd

Throughout the House Intelligence Committees’ hearings centering on the Impeachment of the 45th President of the United States, Devin Nunes’ opening statements, preceding the testimony of witnesses bemoaned the Democrats for wasting time and not doing the business of America. Yesterday, California Rep. Eric Swalwell, introduced an article from the...

Arms for Dirt: Hill & Holmes testimony …”Russia operates like a SuperPAC.”

EJ5bCBPWwAA3ZYH.jpg

“I said to him. . . I think this is all going to blow up – and here we are.” Fiona Hill and David Holmes put a cocktail stick into the fictional narratives promoted by the GOP and the White House. She reminds us that there was a domestic political errand...

How Mob Bossiness works: “Everyone was in the loop. It was no secret.” … Is Sondland no snitch

Today’s bombshell had a considerable blast radius.  Sondland affirms, “yes” there was a “quid pro quo.” After a first deposition, a revised addendum, and today another lengthy statement, we now know there are receipts, and if Trump were not a PABOTUS*, he’d be indicted. Lacking that, the articles of impeachment get...

Some civil disobedience acts are better than others, like storming a SCIF, because to Gaetz, some kayfabe stunts are more legal than others during an impeachment inquiry. On the bright side, at least Gaetz didn’t melt or burst into flames. x Gaetz wants women who threw drink at him to...

Arms for Dirt is worse because Trump and the amigos nearly got away with it

EJQ_4O3XkAAWbe1.jpg

The Arms for Dirt whistleblower has, like Christopher Steele and his dossier, yet to be proven wrong, and yet considerable effort has been spent on trying to discredit them. Several times during today’s hearings attempts were made to try to insert the whistleblower into the proceedings. The reasons are mainly...

Ambassador to the EU under Donald Trump Gordon Sondland

A new article describes the trial ballooning of GOP narratives that would try to divert the impeachment and pin the crime on someone, anyone else. No one seems to fit even as Sondland, Mulvaney, and Giuliani appear on a short list to not make Trump guilty of bribery, extortion, or...

On July 27, 2016 Donald Trump asked the Russians to help him defeat Hillary Clinton. The infamous comment by Mr. Trump was “I will tell you this: Russia if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing, I think you will probably be rewarded...

Today features more White House manufacturing of truth that resembles the Bill Barr “summary” of the Mueller report, as further contrasts will be drawn between conventional diplomacy and a Trumpian parallel activity of self-dealing.

the Three Amigos plus Rudy, are now in more trouble after the Vindman testimony

Rudy and the “three amigos” (Volker, Sondland, Perry) seem now more exposed after the building depositions that destroyed GOP process objections. And then there’s Pence who will be revealed to know more, as well as Mulvaney. NEW: Vindman’s testimony appears to contradict Rick Perry's ardent denials that he ever heard the...

could Pence become the fall guy in the Arms for Dirt scandal

Apparently, Trump’s lawyer(s) have been volunteering, in the context of immunity, the exposure of the VPOTUS to indictment. Not much space under that bus. Why does Donald Trump's legal team keep bringing making the unprompted point that a vice president can totally be prosecuted while in office?! (…wonders Mike Pence,...

Morons' Watergate: Impeachment inquiry continues, despite numerous diversions

EHbDSFTW4AAr_1c.jpg

What a day. Trump opines: “You people with this phony Emoluments Clause” because apparently there’s a US Constitution. So much diversionary activity as Trump repeats campaign lies during his “Cabinet meeting” press opportunity. That event was meant to offset the failed Mulvaney press briefing of last week and the even more...
