Or I go search for another source with the same news. It can be tempting to link the Hill when they seem to scoop so quickly sometimes, but people need to stop doing it. That news source is a poison pill.

These are sentence fragments strung together loosely, making very little sense. It's appalling that this is supposed to be a political speech. The level of communication displayed here could barely hold up one side of a conversation, much less pass for persuasive rhetoric regarding important issues facing the nation... especially given the fact that he can't seem to stop talking about bathroom fixtures.

Frightening.

And once again, who is surprised? No one.

He's not worried about his constituents; he knows no one is after them. His photo says, "I'm after you."

His photo says "I'm gonna get you."

That tweet is not a warning. It's a threat.

As with just about everything Trump does, it was red meat for the base. Timing it for the the day before the impeachment vote was intentional. Loud distraction and disturbance, vulgar performance theatre for the masses - it's his gimmick.

Immigration officials stop doctors from giving flu shots to detained migrant children




Doctors with flu shots for migrant children turned away from Calif. facility; 6 arrested




It's heinous. It makes no sense.

That phrase alone points out the problem in stark terms. Politically disposing of people in the name of corporate greed while simultaneously breaking a campaign promise is not good optics, never mind ethics and conscience. :sad trombone:

In tweet format, Trump can fake his way through stuttering and jumping from topic to topic mid-thought, but otherwise he is incoherent. His language skills have deteriorated too much for him to pretend to string a complete sentence together any more. It's the same reason he won't be participating in any debates during the election campaign.

Based on that alone, I think it would be remarkable to get him to testify in person. But it won't happen.

and look presentable and respectable. That's all they had to do, and they couldn't do it.

"Oh, it was just the circle game!" Not helping anyone's case here. Last time I checked that game (college in the '80s) it was on the lewd side. If other people have innocent versions, okay fine. Regardless, that was not the time to play.

"Oh, it's just the okay sign!" Sorry, nope. Okay sign is usually held up near to your own face - and unfortunately this symbol has been appropriated. Whether we like it or not, it's no longer as innocent as it used to be.

"But it's just a 4chan prank!" It used to be a 4chan prank. Not anymore.

"I didn't know, so they didn't know!" Really? Come on.

Given today's political climate, I don't think anyone from West Point or the Naval Academy should be giving any of us reason to doubt them on the issue. Do you?

He was likely bankrolling Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, and also Rudy through his lawyers diGenova and Toensing.

What I don't understand is how Rudy Guliani is still a free man, walking (and globehopping) around as though he is not thick as thieves with the Russian mob while trying to tamper with an election. Again.
