"Flamethrowers Jim Jordan, Mark Meadows and Lee Zeldin are not part of the process..."
Closing segment on Lawrence O'Donnell.
I'm not a stenographer, so I didn't get it all, but my understanding (please correct as needed) is that the resolution that's coming up severely limits Jordan, Meadows and Zeldin's limits to showboat and turn the hearings into a clown show.

Oh, motherFUCKER. Trump campaign's Parscale is pimping a $15 "USA Camo Dog Bandana."
On Monday, President Donald Trump declassified an image of the dog wounded in the raid that resulted in the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
On Tuesday, the Trump campaign began raising campaign funds in honor of all the great dogs who serve our country.
Campaign manager Brad Parscale announced the campaign would be selling $15 USA camo dog bandanas because the 2020 re-election campaign salutes our 4-legged heroes!

Trump wanted to cut off funds to schools linked to Erdogan's rival -- but White House lawyers said no
Trump wanted to cut off funds to schools linked to Erdogans rival but White House lawyers said no
https://www.rawstory.com/2019/10/trump-wanted-to-cut-off-funds-to-schools-linked-to-erdogans-rival-but-white-house-lawyers-said-no/
A new report from Bloomberg claims that President Donald Trump once tried to cut off funding for schools that were linked to a rival of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan before getting stopped by White House lawyers.
According to the report, Trump started taking an interest in the schools funding at the behest of Rudy Giuliani, whose work in pressuring the government of Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden now has the president facing an impeachment inquiry in the House of Representatives.
The schools in question are associated with a movement headed by Fethullah Gulen, an opponent of Erdoğan who lives in exile in Pennsylvania. The presidents interest in cutting off their funding in early 2017 came just before the Turkish president was scheduled to visit the United States.
However, reports Bloomberg, administration lawyers ultimately concluded they couldnt justify cutting off money for the schools, as it would give the appearance of preference for a particular religion if the government cut off funding for Muslim schools but kept funding Christian schools.

Must be a slow news day...Trump's tweeting about how groovy Tiger Fucking Woods is.
He's a child, it's that simple. Motherfucker is high-fiving Woods like he doesn't have a care in the world, and since he's in "Executive Time." he probably doesn't. He's probably stuffing his fat face, watching Fox, and daydreaming about golf.
