They both start with the letter “E” and they’re both in Africa. That’s close enough, eggheads! What, you expect the actual president of the United States to know the difference? Go jerk off to a world atlas, nerds! So at his skinhead rally* on Thursday
Could there be a second impeachment: Impeachment2 The interlocked role of trials, evidence, and witnesses seems pretty clear, and no amount of GOP illogical reasoning can finesse it. Since the M.O. of the GOP is to use some procedural wrangling to swiftly move IMPOTUS to brag about exoneration claims,
One person’s target of opportunity is another’s “threat of imminent attack”. The worst part about this is that Trump & Pompeo think Americans are really this dumb. https://t.co/FoA0vwmEkM — Joyce Alene (@JoyceWhiteVance) January 5, 2020 The terms “anticipatory self-defense”, “preemptive self-defense” and “preemption” traditionally refers
Keeping Trump in power might be the best Iranian revenge for the assassination of Qasem Suliemani. One view could be that Trump, as a natural coward will ultimately reduce US forces and cede Middle East political influence to his masters in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Russia, despite
We’re all appreciating the history of the moment, even as we are appalled that Trump continues to evade an accounting of the truth of the Arms for Dirt Scandal. Neal Katyal’s thread outlines the coming stakes. THREAD ON IMPEACHMENT AND REMOVAL IN THE NEW YEAR.
Excellent point below about staying focused on the most important issue – Trump must go. https://t.co/3hQyZiXShH — David Cay Johnston (@DavidCayJ) December 30, 2019 As difficult as pre-primary rhetoric has been, the alternative in 2021 is worse. We need to get past the media framing and disinformation
Recall that however vulgar, the Trump Twitter feed has been since the Inaugural, official WH statements. Trump has perhaps crossed a line with regard to the Whistleblower Protection Act, that if anything, as retaliation could add to the numerous possible charges of witness tampering. x Trump has shared
The impeachment of Donald Trump is now a part of history. It is a permanent stain on his legacy that will also include caging babies, sabotaging healthcare, abandoning terrorist-fighting allies, exploding the deficit, embracing brutal dictators, humiliating the nation, telling more than 15,000 lies, empowering
Another choke hold death revealed in today’s release of body cam video. Because three large deputies against a disabled man who was, as a deputy’s lawyer’s claim, ”responsible for his own death”. Darn being pulled over because you don’t look like you own your car. Shame on
If an undocumented immigrant ran over a 14-year-old white girl, how many tweetering fingers do you think Donald Trump would sprain trying to broadcast the details to his deplorable horde? But when a white Iowa woman purposely hits a young girl of color with her
Today was a weird day as the Trump campaign tried to accuse minority whip of advocating an IMPOTUS lynching, reminding us of the George W. Bush campaign's use of push polling to plant the idea that John McCain had a secret, illegitimate black child. Like the CT of pedophile rings
Trump continues to service Russia and support the “dirt on Biden” quest, whining that it doesn’t feel like he’s been impeached. Because shaking down the Ukrainian president isn’t violating bribery and extortion statutes even if Congressional aid was worth $391 million in announcing investigations. If only

Assuming that a cowed GOP Senate acquits POTUS* in an impeachment trial, the entirety of the GOP’s candidates must bear that responsibility at the polls in 2020. OJ, Trump: same struggle? Joy Reid says it would be "jury nullification" if Senate failed to convict and remove
Drug dealers do the kind of architecting that Ivanka Trump is so fond of quoting. The same style of drug smuggling boat appears in more than one ocean. Forbes magazine wonders why. This operational question is much like the rules governing US sales of Javelin missiles
Not to be overshadowed by Rick Perry’s proclamation that Donald Trump was chosen by God to “rule” over our country, convicted felon and end times pancake mix salesman Jim Bakker (yes, people still send him money) recently wondered why there was a big dip in earthquakes
Because at this point, Individual-1 knows he has the impeachment acquittal votes, could Trump come before the Senate to make what would be a campaign speech. Trump doesn’t have to appear, but it seems more likely that with a GOP majority unwilling to have defections, Trump
He’s a 73-year-old man who sounds like a pair of mating Yukon moose being sucked into a jet engine, but he has great hearing everyone. Everyone says so. Many, many people. And so he’s certain that David Holmes’ testimony this morning, in which the diplomat claimed
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
George Kent reaffirmed Trump’s 2016 obsession and his 2020 objectives in his testimony. Trump still believes in debunked CTs, and the GOP witness list reflects that level of disinformation. Kent says Trump wanted Zelensky to announce a "Clinton" probe. If accurate, Trump wanted Ukraine to investigate
