Pelosi just gave the country a history lesson today and because of that Donald Trump

will never understand what she said and if she's impeaching him or not.

Open with the Constitution, slip in the impeachment, and close with the Founding fathers.
He's confused right now.

This will take 3-5 aides to explain it to Trump.
The one who does it best and tells him "you're fucked" gets fired.

Set aside impeachment. Mnunchin, the DNI and more are ignoring laws that say they "SHALL"

share certain info, like Trump's tax returns, and the Ukraine whistle-blower report, with Congress.

They have ignored these laws and suffer no penalty or punishment.

What can Democrats do about this ongoing pattern of obstruction of justice?

Nancy Pelosi became Speaker again because of a Blue Wave in 2018 that voted for justice

and accountability against Trump.
If she delivers neither, then what are our chances in 2020?
Of holding the House?
Of gaining the Senate?
Of winning the White House?

We are sacrificing our Party's authenticity, goodwill, and public trust by not holding Trump accountable for his crimes.
All for some mythical unicorn of a moderate Republican voter in a swing district that will never vote for a Democrat.

The GOP investigated Whitewater, impeached Clinton, voted 50 times to repeal Obamacare, knowing Obama would not sign the bill, then they spent years on Benghazi and Hillary's emails, because they told their base it was the right thing to do, period. Then they just went ahead and did it.

We need to act on what's right, and what we stand for, regardless of polling, public opinion, and political perceptions.

"Well, the Democrats never impeached me because I never broke the law or did anything wrong. Because if I had, they would have impeached me. They hate me you know." or something like that Trump will say over and over.

Unless Democrats act, and they must act alone, to protect our nation Trump will remain above the law, and who knows what will happen to us all because of that.

Unadulterated speculation and hypothesizing whistle-blower thread...

Bring your theory about what the whistle-blower found out.
What did Trump promise and to who?
Like the game CLUE...

I think Trump promised Putin an elimination of sanctions in exchange for more election meddling.
What do you think was promised, and in exchange for what?

C-SPAN callers open huge up can of whoop-ass on Judge Jeanine of Fox News

https://www.mediamatters.org/jeanine-pirro/jeanine-pirro-went-c-span-it-didnt-go-well

CAROL: Our president and our beautiful first lady, they went down to El Paso, Texas, and they posed with a baby that the president's rhetoric, Fox News’ rhetoric, your rhetoric had helped to orphan. And I think this -- this thing about Trump is making America great again, Trump has made America hate again, and it's this hatred of races. I hear it all the time when I see, talk to Republicans and they say, “I went down to Texas and there are all these Mexicans down there and they're all speaking Spanish.” Well, I got news for you. Those weren't Mexicans; those were the Americans. That guy that went down to El Paso to shoot a bunch of Mexicans, he shot a bunch of Americans. And I'm really tired of this anti-immigrant, anti-people-with-brown-skin rhetoric that's coming out of Fox News, coming out of people like you, and coming out of our president. It's demeaning, it's beneath the office, it's beneath you. You used to be a judge -- you know better. It's time that that stopped.

STEVE SCULLY: Thank you, Carol. We’ll get a response.

JEANINE PIRRO: Look, you know what, I refuse to accept your recitation of the facts. You are dead wrong. The problem in this country is not the color of anyone, and don’t you dare accuse me of any kind of issue related to color.

KEVIN: Congratulations on your suspension from Fox. You were suspended -- you should share that with the audience -- and before you attack the left about us and what we do to you conservatives, he gets negative coverage because he lies and distorts. Every single morning, every single day we have to tune in to a level of idiocy and instability that this nation has never seen on the left or on the right. Now, you, ma’am, and your network, you keep this alive. Recently, just last week, you said they are, the Democrats are trying to replace you. Now you're saying this to a predominantly older, white audience -- 1% of your audience is Black, probably less than that for your show.

Later, caller Teresa from Tennessee spoke to Pirro about Teresa’s belief that “our white community” is being attacked by Democrats trying to take “only white people’s guns” while “gang members in Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia” go unpunished. Pirro responded by expressing concern about “Black-on-Black crime.”

I'm emotionally conflicted about this HGTV Brady Bunch house renovation show.

On the one hand: you have a group of former TV co-stars that were never a real family, pretending to fix up a house they never lived or worked in, just so the network can profit by cravenly nostalgia-mining my childhood memories.
On the other hand: Marcia.
Fine. I'm in.
