Mistakenly inserting a fuel nozzle into a fishing pole slot, a Florida man pumped $60 worth of gasoline onto the deck of his boat and the ground of a gas station, fire rescue officials said.

are the 2 articles of impeachment voted on separately or together?

I know it won't happen, but maybe the Senate is more likely to convict on obstruction of Congress. Maybe the senators will be more interested in protecting their own power of oversight then they are in protecting trump. I know it's a fantasy, but just maybe....

maybe Warren was referring to the "30 years - 1990" exchange

When she told Bernie "you called me a liar". She was momentarily confused during that exchange and perhaps that's what prompted her to say what she did.

Is it possible that Bernie and Liz remember the conversation differently and that both honestly

believe they are right? After 18 years of marriage I can confirm that such things do happen.

My theory;
Bernie said, or thought he was saying, that it would be more difficult for a woman to beat trump (because trump is the most effective demagogue in U.S history).
Warren heard, or thought she heard, Bernie say that a woman could not be elected president.
Perhaps Bernie's language was, inadvertently, unclear.
Perhaps Warren misunderstood the point Bernie was trying to make.

Bernie and Liz, and their supporters, should do the same thing me and my wife do in such circumstances;
GET OVER IT!!!
Remember all that you have in common and all that you want to accomplish together. Do not let petty squabbles blind you to what is really important.
