28. Let's not forget that Trump has committed many crimes.

Jan 2019

He is still extremely vulnerable for multiple felonies and potentially for other treasonous actions. Even if Leopold got Rathered, even if it’s never proven that Trump told Cohen to lie to Congress, there’s plenty more to pin on him, and plenty more that is worthy of impeachment.

I know a lot of us are in a Fitzmas mood tonight, but I think there is still plenty to be optimistic about. We need to keep pressuring our Senators, especially those of us “represented” by Republican Senators, to do something about Trump’s many high crimes and misdemeanors. And don’t forget the State of New York charges that will be hung around his flabby orange neck.

Take heart, everyone, and take a deep breath. Have a nice weekend, and let’s focus on honoring Dr. King Monday. The fight resumes next week.

That is not true. He reported something like "I have several sources who say Atticus Jan 2019 #34
Nope...he reported that his sources said "Rove has been indicted in a sealed indictment" mentalslavery Jan 2019 #36
I find that a Google search turns up " characterizations" of his actual reporting which agree with Atticus Jan 2019 #37
At the time, jason went on shultz's MSNBC show and said mentalslavery Jan 2019 #39
