“First time I heard these were just news clippings.”
I suspect they were more than just news clippings. I’ll bet there were a couple of sworn statements in there provided by Rudy. Hence the back bench Dem calling it a “bunch of conspiracy theories”.
My money says the State Dept IG told them to knock this **** off if they know what’s good for them.
Lucky for us they don’t.

“If he would have fought them head on, he would have lost.”
Putting aside the pure loser defeatisim, failing to stand up for the Law when it is being egregiously broken and distored because you’re waiting or hoping for your enemy to fall on his face (on account of he’s such a bad guy) isn’t a virtue. It may be asserted that the reason we are treated daily to such blatent illegality posing as Law is because our side is afraid of the inevitable optics. WHEN exactly are we going to magically be unafraid? Knowing when to fight is part of leadership. There is a virulent cancer in this counter that must be stopped sooner rather than later. The reason it has so much currency as truth with so many is because we have endorsed and uplifted it with inaction.

Schiff is an idiot to blow it off as...."didn't talk to me">
Does anyone believe Schiff doesn't know who the whistleblower is?
That is all well and good but meaningless when you are ONE against the mob.
If President Trump attempted to begin arresting people soon after taking office he would have been impeached and removed from office. The Democrats had complete control over the narrative and the America people were not yet fully behind the President.
Wars are won or lost by knowing when to attack and when to retreat. The battleground was not ready yet for President Trump to go on the offensive.
So while your thoughts are pure of heart they are worthless in the real world.
The deep-state never has a bad day...Unlike the GOP/conservatives always playing catchup.
Nice stuff as always, except the word “Decimate” is misused, which means “To take (or kill, destroy) one in ten.” See how it’s related to “Decimal”?
At least no one is talking about Jeffery Epstein anymore.
“Although I think Trump was raised up “for such a time as this, I’m guessing the effect won’t last after his terms are up...”
Amen to the first part, but have you forgotten all the judges Trump has appointed and will appoint?
That will be the Trump legacy. Far more important and long lasting than tax cuts!
Oh, by the way, let’s not forget “THE WALL”. I think there is one in China too.
Mitch is married to Elaine Chao. Her parents own Foremost Maritime Corporation, a shipping company whose fortunes are entirely controlled by China, and from which most of Mitch's personal wealth apparently comes from.
Mitch McConnell’s Freighted Ties to a Shadowy Shipping Company
China can bankrupt Mitch any time they want to.
Amber Athey @amber_athey To summarize: Dems went into the briefing expecting impeachable information. Came out with articles (which they call conspiracy theories) about their own party’s connections to and pressure on Ukraine. Brutal.
I was near a radio all yesterday morning and heard the news blurbs hyping the meeting as being a potential big boost for impeachment. It was 180 degrees the opposite. I’m looking forward to the news blurbs today. My guess is they’ll pretend it never happened.
As far as judges go, I would expect future liberal executive orders to be upheld by obamite judges, whether they’re legal or not. Only republicans sit by and do nothing when walked all over by a rogue judiciary. Trump has pushed back, but all his appeals have not been successful. A conservative court won’t get involved if there’s no pushback from republicans against illegal E.O.s.
“So while your thoughts are pure of heart they are worthless in the real world.”
You can write such a thing and back it with pure temporizing and speculation, and not feel a little silly? Trump had slam dunk cases against a number of people and the plain law on his side on day one. He won’t put any of the most deserving miscreants in jail or sanction them in any way because he and his people are aparrantly afraid of the optics.
When do we start the Primary Assault on all Establishment Republicans, and oust anyone who has been in DC for more than 12 years?
And when and how do we start getting half of the Left on board with this effort? The UniParty needs to be torn down, and the Hate the Rich libs should be eager to get on board, as long as it is pitched to them in the right way. I'm begging for the day that Pres Trump makes a huge, impassioned speech to them to get them on board with the push for electoral "term limits", since Congress will never all a Legislative version. Vote Democrat, fine... but vote for new blood in the Primaries, because the Old Guard clearly doesn't have the talent, the wisdom, the interest, or the ability to do what the voters need them to do. That slogan can and should be used by the base in both parties.
And we have a divided Congress, making it even less likely to have much get passed... which isn't a terrible thing. The less they do, the better for the nation, most of the time. Let them quibble, let them step in the bear trap of an actual impeachment trial, let Congress do nothing.... while our President lays the ground work for more campaign promises kept, and more Swamp Draining.... and hopefully some real legal consequences for the corrupt Democrat Machine.
