  1. November '20 may as well be 10 years in the future. Rs and their Russian buddies are going to cheat like hell, just like in '16. Defeating him at the ballot box is no certainty. There is one constitutional action that the Ds can take right now, and they should do it. I think the future of the Republic is worth cancelling a 6-week recess. I'll believe the financial evidence when I see it. Maybe it materializes, and maybe it doesn't. Any president before Trump would have been removed for what's in the Mueller report. Not impeaching is normalizing that behavior.
  2. Nancy's had at least a couple of good jumping off points for starting impeachment hearings, but she won't jump. The 47 day recess won't help any momentum that the Ds currently have.
  3. Nadler/Cummings/Pelosi/Schiff all looked whipped in the press conference on Wednesday. They don't appear to have any fight left in them.
  4. I think most voting machines are offline. They may be referring to voter registration databases. However, sounds like the Russians may have their eye on voting machines themselves.
  5. But the tarmac?!1one
  6. ^ As opposed to the good ole USA.
  7. Even Schiff and Lieu were sounding tepid in sound bites I heard this afternoon. Feels like every last one of them is complicit.
  8. That's a shame. I have a feeling her denials of guilt won't fly like Cheeto's denials.
  9. Studio 54 Wars were no joke.
  10. Toothless better start shopping for another garage to rent...
  11. Sadly, I think most Rs (esp. Senators) think of it as a game. They don't really worry about anything but maintaining power and keeping the flow of money going. Keep the browns out of the USA and keep the undesirables on the other side of town.
  12. Yep. We're through the looking glass, and there's no turning back -- at least not easily. Full blow traitors carrying out their actions in plain view.
  13. Yep. At best, she's playing prevent defense and abrogating the House's constitutional duty to hold the President accountable.
  14. It's infuriating.
  15. Now let's take a 6-week recess to kill all momentum.
  16. 3M views of that Trump tweet in 5 minutes. He will win the PR battle if the Ds don't impeach.
  17. It probably won't make sense to voters if you start impeachment hearings 6 months from now. The Mueller report will be 500 miles back in the rear view mirror. Nobody is going to pay attention to court battles to try to get McGahn et al to appear before Congress.
  18. I think there are two ways to influence undecideds in the next year and a half. Either engage Trump constantly on Twitter, and get in the mud with the pig, or impeach him. I guess the Ds could run a media blitz for the next 16 months, but they don't seem to be able to stay on one message or to maintain intensity over weeks and weeks.
