Epstein's death should be the focus of another open, televised investigation. This could be a real bi-partisan effort to see what happened. Everything from Clinton, to the Acosta deal to Trump's sex parties with the guy should be fully exposed! . Barr is too much of a corrupt actor to give an investigation any credibility at all

You know the Russian collusion narrative is slowly but surely (thankfully) dying when Adam Schitt … err … Schiff is tweeting about Trump trying to make it easier to kill bald eagles so he can make money for himself, his donors, and his allies.

 

Dude has seriously lost whatever marbles he had before 2016.

 

 

 

 

Hey Adam, must be the Russians made him do it...................?

STORMY HEARINGS AHEAD

 

Rust never sleeps and neither do congressional Democrats intent on impeaching President Trump. When the House returns to session next week, the House Judiciary Committee will explore five instances of supposed obstruction of justice by Trump that they say are documented in Robert Mueller’s report.

 

None amounts to actual obstruction of justice. Each, by now, is yawn inducing.

 

But House Dems also plan an inquiry that might gain attention and put Judiciary Committee members in the spotlight. Reportedly, they will investigate Trump’s involvement in paying two women to remain silent about allegedly having sex with him.

 

One of the women is ex-Playboy model Karen McDougal. The other is porn star Stormy Daniels.

 

The payments predate Trump’s presidency. Is it a “high crime and misdemeanor” for a candidate to buy the silence of someone who has damaging information about him? I don’t think so. At worst, it’s a technical violation of campaign finance law, and I doubt it even amounts to that.

 

But why let this stand in the way of sexy hearings? Stormy Daniels and the ex-Playboy model might be able to attract media attention and draw viewers to hearings that otherwise hardly anyone would watch.

 

Might their testimony harm Trump’s image? I doubt there’s anyone left in America who thinks Trump is above having sex with attractive women. I also doubt that any potential Trump voter would fail to understand his effort to keep such matters out of the public’s eye during a presidential election campaign. But maybe Trump will take a minor hit if Daniels testifies that her sexual encounter with Trump occurred not long after his wife had given birth.

{snip}

 

 

In sum, it’s conceivable, but unlikely, that Stormy Daniels hearings would injure Trump’s re-election bid. It’s conceivable, and perhaps not quite as unlikely, that such hearings would lead to consequences injurious to the reelection campaigns of a few House Democrats.

 

In the end, my guess is that these hearings would have virtually no electoral impact. They might make for good theater, though.

Has anyone else had trouble seeing some content? The three posts above mine (two from DR and one from Hedge) are blank. Posted tweets are formatted oddly as well.

 

Anyone?

 

I notice that happens when tweets are deleted — but not sure

I'm guessing that you are using Chrome.

 

For some reason embedded tweets have been blocked on Chrome's desktop versions for the last week.   Embedded tweets work fine on Chrome mobile or on other browsers.  Haven't found a solution yet.

I recently had a similar issue pop up on my computer at home, using Firefox. I haven't yet figured out the cause, but when using other browsers, I don't have the issue.

Democrats are mired in an impeachment mess of their own making.

 

Conflicting signals from the House’s most powerful Democrats have left rank-and-file lawmakers exasperated, unable to say confidently whether the House is, in fact, considering one of the weightiest actions any Congress can take: recommending President Donald Trump’s impeachment.

 

Some see the messaging muddle as a strategic boon — it allows moderate Democrats to sidestep politically explosive questions about impeachment while permitting progressives to insist they’re aggressively hammering Trump. But others doubt the tactics are intentional and note that it has strained the Democratic caucus, aroused suspicion among the party’s base and could potentially weaken the House’s hand in court.

 

Sixteen House Democrats, in interviews, offered wildly conflicting assessments of the status of the House Judiciary Committee’s investigation of Trump, which its chairman — Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) — bills as an “impeachment investigation.”

Also, whomever Nadler hired as his style guru with those new glasses missed their mark. 

 

He looks like an old man trying to be a hipster. 

 

Hey!  I resemble that remark.
