Trump demands everyone be tested before visiting him but will not demand the same for Americans before "reopening" the country. Conclusion: He doesn't give a darn about your life.
If you worked for this administration you are complicit in what happened on Monday. If you work for Fox News you are complicit. If you voted against removal in the Senate trial you are complicit. If you vote for Trump in Nov. you are complicit. You should be shamed and shunned.
Cities and states where violence occurs plead with Trump not to come because he incites violence. This has NEVER happened with a president. He is quite simply a threat to public safety.
Not only does Bolton's evidence blow the entire defense but it reveals that Trump lawyers have been lying to senators' faces in denying direct evidence of the quid pro quo. Will any of them be offended?
The next president is going to have to appt a person to go through the entire govt and determine who broke laws and who should be prosecuted. I have the perfect person: Merrick Garland
Trump had a meltdown as Dems were giving speeches .. demonstrating everything they said was true. He is out of control, out of his depth and, frankly, out of his mind
Just think: If R's had removed him for clearly impeachable conduct we would have saved thousands upon thousands of lives lost to covid, responded to Russia cyberattack, not seen NDAA vetoed and war criminals pardoned
I want to say to WSJ ed page, Fox News, talk radio: You own this. You instigated crazy conspiracy theories, stirred resentment, encouraged the mob. You all need to think about how to make amends.
Watching Andrew Cuomo is inspiring, uplifting, fascinating. He weaves details and humor and math and common sense all together. He is magnificent. Let's just listen to him.
did you every think: Germany would start spending big time on defense, Swiss would freeze assets, the world's biggest hero is a Jewish comedian and Russians are protesting in the street. Look what Putin has done.
People are missing something about Burr scandal. If senators knew so did Trump. He did nothing. Burr should resign but so should Trump. They both misled Americans
Biden-Harris should start running on "Trump is destroying the Post Office" in red states. Also with seniors. Make it a top issue. He wants to deprive them of RX they get through mail. Biden-Harris: We want you to get your mail.
for the morally dense: This is why you don't elect a president who abuses women -- he will tolerate it in others, give cover to the abusers and demean women brave enough to come forward. Oh, and since abusers lie you'll have someone dishonest to the core
Trump pretends to have powers he doesn't have (reopen) the country and refuses to exercise those he does have (e.g. ramp up testing). He is a snake oil salesman not a leader.
We are down more than 800 pts on Dow after a .5 rate cut. Maybe instead of blowing up the debt we should have left a little in reserve for fiscal stimulus when the economy went cold. Or maybe electing an incompetent narcissist wasn't good for the economy after all.
Do people need any more incentive to turn out to vote than what we've seen in the last day, the last week, the last month? Crawl over glass to vote, folks.
Every Republican who voted to acquit Trump for sacrificing natl security to help his re-election is responsible for the Russian bounty treachery. They told him he could betray America and stay in office. They all must go.
Why has no member of GOP condemned a movement that runs around with pro-Auschwitz and Confederate flags. Why would you belong to a party that calls these people its base??
Applause for
@RepJerryNadler
for having counsel question Barr, who is too chicken to show. Yes, subpoena him. Hold him in contempt. And if need be impeach him. The AG is lawless
Trump and McConnell can rig an acquittal but it will deny him exoneration in the eyes of those 69% who expect witnesses. And Sens who vote for hiding witnesses will be laughingstocks
Trump and Kevin McCarthy already backing down on Post Office. Did they actually look at some polling? Did someone tell them they are hurting their own side?
Any R now promoting rejection of an election or calling to not to follow the will of voters or making baseless allegations of fraud should never serve in office, join a corporate board, find a faculty position or be accepted into "polite" society. We have a list.
Pence's refusal to have a shield confirms two arguments: 1. Pence and Trump are reckless with others' health 2. the debate commission needs to end - if they can't stand up for the safety of the candidates the hell with them
Think of it this way: Trump has been impeached. A healthy majority think he abused power and obstructed Congress. The trial is about whether Republican Senators want to be accomplices. It is they who are on trial.
Amy Coney Barrett is complicit in appearing in Senate under these conditions. On this basis alone she should be rejected. Frankly, no judge countenancing this should be on the 7th circuit either.
