Kamala Harris was right, the Democratic party has for so long taken the black female vote for granted. They only show up in our when they need our help, other than that they are invisible in our communities. Let them take our votes for granted at their own peril.
Today we will watch the complete submission of the Republican Party into stooges of Vladimir Putin. They embrace Russian Intelligence service narratives, take their money & sleep with their spies. GOP now means #GovernmentofPutinhttps://t.co/IN42rjRVjT
Per Ch12 Netanyahu WILL be indicted on bribery charges (as well as fraud & breach of trust). One more hour till AG himself confirms. This is worst case scenario for Bibi who will give his own statement later in eve.
One by one those who treated PBO with disdain and us with spite and contempt, are meeting their just ends while he is more popular than ever out here living his best life. Karma is going big and going hard and she has #45, Mcturtle and their ilk in her sights.
On Thursday, @SpeakerPelosi rejected the notion that the impeachment process is partisan, saying, "if the Republicans are in the denial about the facts, they do not want to honor their oath of office" the the media should not label the process 'partisan.' pic.twitter.com/FQkkY5Zxey
“Devin Nunes Is Going Down As He’s Linked To Indicted Giuliani Associate.”
Lev Parnas, one of several indicted associates of Trump’s personal lawyer and shadow State Department Rudy Giuliani, helped arrange meetings and calls in Europe for Republican Representative Devin Nunes in 2018….The travel came as Nunes, in his role on the House Intelligence Committee, was working to investigate the origins of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russian election meddling.”
(https://www.politicususa.com/2019/11/20/devin-nunes-parnas.html)
–NUNES has no substance and can easily be played from without, and from within by his own thought police. Sad.
Don’t get me started on Joe Biden, for eight goddamn years this guy sat this close to President Obama. And after last night’s debate it’s as if he didn’t learn a goddamn thing about the African American community. I’m sick and tired of his “Uncle Joe” routine, the only thing this guy had to do was to show up and not make a fool out of himself, and he couldn’t even do that. How many fuck-ups is this guy allowed before we come to the conclusion that just maybe being the Vice President is his ceiling? And yes, minor fuck-ups matter, because if he can’t avoid the minor fuck-ups. He won’t be able to avoid the big fuck-ups.
And “Bootleg,” this guy is touted as the next Obama, give me a fucking break. This guy with his stock photos and bullshit outreach to the black community and his bullshit “Douglas Plan” that he said was backed by 400 black people when in fact a majority of the black people listed didn’t even know what the fuck Bootleg was pushing.
And Elizabeth Warren and her plan for every damn thing, which by the way has to be reworked because every time a plan of hers is fact-checked it doesn’t pass the smell test. Once again how many times Warren is allowed a do-over? I guess membership has its privileges.
And then there’s Saint Bernie, who screams and shakes his finger at the clouds and who’s been seriously dissing Democrats his whole life. I am very worried. Very.
I think Benie is there to explain the truth about capitalism.
In my opinion the ultra-rich and oil corporates are planning to ditch the rest of us and leave us to the ravages of climate change, national security be damned.
Also that if enough chaos is caused, people might lean to authoritarianism (Putin/Bannon plan?).
Bernie is fearless about giving a wake-up call, and the young people are listening.
It is urgent that we all listen even if we don’t see him as President, because he is telling the truth.
Most of us were taken in in by disinformation in 2016 and didn’t understand how important Bernie for a viable future, or any kind of future for the non-wealthy.
Bernie is playing an important, fearless, and necessary role, and by god i’m grateful to him.
Well, we differ. I cannot stand the sight of him. He spent every effort dissing PBO’s entire two terms, undermining his agenda and publicly advocating that PBO be primaried in 2012. He’s not a Democrat, says he would never ever call himself a Democrat but routinely shows up in our party just to take advantage of us and our party structure whenever he feels like it. Then he immediately leaves the party again. He’s a creepy misogynist, doesn’t have a record on much at all after 30 years, treated HRC like dirt and soiled the 2016 DNC along with his arrogant supporters trying to disrupt everything. He does nothing in terms of leadership to model behavior for his fans, who routinely slime and smear women on twitter. I’m tired of his cranky old man routine. I consider the whole corporate/billionaire talking point to be low-hanging fruit and an easy meme that goes nowhere without a majority in Congress. So, yes, we differ.
I ALSO detest the way Bernie entirely wrote off the South in 2012, disrespected POC and the issues important to us by focussing on economics rather than address racism. He preferred to choose firebrands Cornell West and Killer Mike, who also smeared PBO every chance they got. No thank you.
thanks.
Am not pulling a lever behind a curtain right now, but stand by what I say.
Regardless of his appearance, mannerisms, or the bill of goods sold to us by the Russians in the run up to the last election (and I witnessed it when visiting another country) he has a true message and a warning.
What he says is true, and imo we must hear it and respond like we are on fire.
There is so much damage to fix from ComradeTang and his Kkklan. We have a deep enough bench that we shouldn’t have to settle for the nice dude who’s heart is in the right place but is a walking gaffe-machine. Not for President. If he’s the nominee, he’ll have my vote, but after this nightmare, I swear I really don’t want 4 years of daily statements from the WH: “The President didn’t really mean what he said… He really meant blah, blah, blah… Oh y’all know what he meant.” [Sigh!]
RUSSIA IS EMBOLDENED BY OUR INACTION. Russia must be confronted globally & their operations must be . Their goal is instability & raising autocracies. if we don’t we will surrender our democracy. https://t.co/4UGCDNP5ze
One opinion is that Pompeo will be resigning. So this may be orange man dangling a Secretary of State carrot to get Romney to support him in this impeachment.
If he feels a need to bribe so as to guarantee that he won’t be convicted, maybe (hopefully) the Senate isn’t as much a certainty for him as we are being led to believe.
AND if he is dangling that carrot, isn’t that another example of obstruction?
We can only hope. But we’ve also thought a lot of people were smarter than their actions have shown us. The fact that — as far as I can see — NO republicans seem to think 45’s actions are impeachable, much less enough to remove him from office, says a lot.
Difference between supporting trump & denying he is impeachable, to giving up your current job to work for someone who
a) may not be president* for very long
b) who is more than likely to fire you within 12 months.
Just 2 months after Lev Parnas arranged meetings in Europe for Devin Nunes and 3 of his aides in 2018, another Nunes pal and former top aide, Kash Patel, joined the NSC and began circumventing normal NSC process to feed Trump disinformation about Ukraine.https://t.co/OkAvuHJvh0

It is pretty much a given that the Republicans, in their quest to protect the orange man, have taken on the role of the see no evil/hear no evil monkeys. But after listening to the opening statements and testimonies Fiona Hill and David Holmes, it is downright scary that the Republicans are willing to ignore the information that’s being provided regarding Russia. Republicans prefer to continue putting our national security at risk by ignoring our intelligence community and our foreign policy experts. Beyond election interference, they are allowing Russia — i.e., Putin — to totally manipulate their party. I truly hope that US citizens are paying attention; especially as it may come down to the 2020 election to get PP and his imps in Congress out of office.
Dr. Hill: "Some of you on this committee appear to believe that Russia… did not conduct a campaign against our country—and that… for some reason, Ukraine did. This is a fictional narrative that has been perpetrated and propagated by the Russian security services themselves." pic.twitter.com/ezVvJYMf3k
This sums up the Trump-Kim love affair pretty well, I think
After the debate, @KamalaHarris had more to say to @HardballChris about Trump's reckless national security miscalculations re NK while giving some insight into her own FP bona fides. #DemDebate

– Fiona Hill and David Hill destroy Trump for all to see – Dr. Hill confirms John Bolton drug deal remark – Jay Leno is involved? – Trump admits he tries to listen in on other people's phone calls – Trump is going to prison – It's still only 11am
I no longer think I hate Jim Jordan, now I know I hate him. What a scene of his questioning tactics of screaming, going on and on then interrupting witness Mr. Holmes answer.

Can relate…haven’t recovered from my youngest leaving. What was a bedroom has turned into land of mysterious packages that I don’t have the heart to open. Wasn’t expecting to feel this way. love to the Obamas and all here experiencing this one!
Stefanic just totally lied and misled in her opening about the Republican members not pushing Russia not being involved, but Ukraine being involved in interfering in the 2016 election.
Stefanic is being used as a tool by the male republicans on the committee. She takes on the roll because she doesn’t see what they are doing to her. She will not be in congress after the next election
She is raising millions! for her opponent, so it will be an equal contest money wise. And she is being an utter twerp – thinks she is part of the “team”. No woman is part of the GOP team
I think many observers anticipated that the Fiona Hill testimony would be fire today, but who among us was prepared for David Holmes? #ImpeachmentHearings
It seems evident that the Republicans think the only problem is the “Whistleblower “ since if Trump was not called out for wrong doing the wrong doing would just continue on which seems would be perfectly fine with them.
I also noticed both the committee Dem members and the witnesses being in control of their body language. I would have been rolling my eyes etcetera every time a Republican spoke their lies and crap. I was proud of both today’s witnesses for speaking up instead of just letting the GOP members spew their talking points.
Fiona Hill is everything that a public servant should be: Patriotic, fearless, brilliant, unruffled. Young Americans considering a career in government and public service need look no further than Ms. Hill for inspiration and a proper example in how one should act
After today, POTUS is beyond legitimate rescue. The testimony by Fiona Hill and David Holmes ties down all loose ends and leaves Senators who have a shred of love for what America at its best represents no way to acquit the criminal in the Oval Office after the inevitable trial.
He unwavering, the hours grueling, Chairman Schiff’s remarks throughout were insightful, moving + must-see.
Paraphrasing a few lines: “In terms of Nixon and Trump this is far more serious – withholding military aid to an
ally at war…This is not Nixon. And it is not that Congress, but this one.”
—Isn’t this the first presidential impeachment inquiry to focus on U.S. foreign policy? Trump set up an irregular rogue foreign policy headed up by Giuliani to benefit his boss politically, and all the witnesses agreed.
I don't know what the short term ramifications will be, but Adam Schiff over the past two weeks has laid out a case against this president that will stand the test of history and will damn every Republican who votes to keep him in office.
One thing for everyone to keep in mind heading into 2020: the gop in the house refused to hold the president accountable and they lost the house by a historic margin. If senate refuses to do same, the result in 2020 could easily be the same.
Fiona Hill "'confirmed what I thought, which is what I’ve said very publicly for a long time: [Putin is] the most dangerous guy on Earth,' said Adm. Mike Mullen, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff…" https://t.co/WXIavRx4YE

Stop making excuses for these cowards. It’s not savvy or helpful to explain it. Everyone understands their pressures, their ambitions, the hermetically sealed media environment, fear of a primary. Still. Cowards. They choose their job over their country.
Cowards is right. The children are willing to do the bidding of the playground bully rather than follow the rules. They are willing to put their reputations at risk to benefit someone who has no care about what it is costing them and will throw them to the curb when their usefulness to him expires. Rather than pay attention to what is in front of them, they’d rather close their eyes, stick their fingers in their ears and sing “la-la-la; I can’t hear you”.
I’m still trying to understand why they can’t come together and collectively do what is necessary — what they SHOULD be doing anyway — to get rid of someone they claim not to like in the first place.
I’m not even sure if it’s party over country anymore (many republicans say they don’t recognize the party anymore), or if it’s a matter of self-service/self-preservation. Putin’s hand is far-reaching.
Your daily reminder that they called this man a terrorist, spread the lie that he was born outside the country, ruthlessly attacked his wife, and obstructed every initiative even if doing so HURT the American people—and not once did he refer to his opposition as, “human scum.” pic.twitter.com/xbc3TVdW8R
Here’s hoping to some divine intervention that will lead to the eviction of the of the current Oval Office occupant and severe consequences for his crimes against this country. It may not happen when we want it, but I trust it will be right on time.
Every day a new outrage, a new plunder, a new crime.

The House will impeach this corrupt "president.*" Senate Cultists will not vote to convict, yet America & the world will see the clear evidence of attempted bribery, extortion, fraud and conspiracy. Then we have to kick his ass out of the WH and his cult out of the Congress.
One other thing—a warning to the cocky Republican member who may try to be patronizing or think he or she is gonna have a good C-SPAN moment at Fiona’s expense: Fiona is smarter than you. She knows more. And she is impatient with idiocy. You are likely to embarrass yourself.
So, crawling out from behind a rock after you hid while the impeachment hearings were being conducted and you had a duty to your country to appear. Sometimes those who talk the toughest and bluster the most about strength are the weakest of us all. https://t.co/H5jc5ZCrBH

Seems he has to be quick, before the truth overtakes trump and the GOP
Something crooked no doubt
One opinion is that Pompeo will be resigning. So this may be orange man dangling a Secretary of State carrot to get Romney to support him in this impeachment.

AND if he is dangling that carrot, isn’t that another example of obstruction?
I think Romney might be slightly smarter than to give up a 6 year sinecure for a job that won’t last more than a few months.
We can only hope. But we’ve also thought a lot of people were smarter than their actions have shown us. The fact that — as far as I can see — NO republicans seem to think 45’s actions are impeachable, much less enough to remove him from office, says a lot.
Difference between supporting trump & denying he is impeachable, to giving up your current job to work for someone who
a) may not be president* for very long
b) who is more than likely to fire you within 12 months.
…and then claims that he doesn’t know you (or hardly knows you).
Oh, I just saw Sheila’s post above that there are others that will be included in a lunch. Still…obstruction?!?!?!?
