  1. A conclusion made on a board where posters share 10 memes posted a day to influence opinion.
  2. Do you think something there is incorrect? Even Trump agreed that Russia interfered!
  3. I have been, and continue to be, concerned with Russia's intereference. I have said that it didn't affect the election many times as well. I care about the issue and find Russia sowing seeds of division to be a concern. The Steele report, which I believe you're referring to as "the disinformation," is garbage, and relying on it was the shoddy work of the IC, which is being held to account. But the IC's conclusions have been and continue to be correct. I have and just did again. Greggy can be right on things. My conclusions can align with his. I don't see things as black and white like that. Wrong.
  4. Staffers expensing things they maybe shouldn't have? Yuge news.
  5. You won't EVER find me saying Trump colluded with Russia. At first I wanted to know more but the more didn't amount to much. You WILL find me saying I agreed 100% with the Mueller conclusion that Trump didn't collude, and that was my position in advance of that report too. You WILL find me saying over and over that the ICA says Russia interfered in our election. Something that we all now know and something that even Trump admits. You will find people like DR, and apparently you as taken in by his narrative, saying that I believe Trump colluded with Russia. But I didn't and don't. That is and was a fiction made up by a hopeful opposition to the president. A fiction not borne of nothing, but a fiction nonetheless.
  6. No there's not. You guys should just copy the TSW meme over: DOOOOOOOOOOMED!
  7. You couldn't have an objective conversation with a brick wall. It would have to be good or evil.
  8. And I've given up hope for the afternoon soaps And a bottle of cold brew Is it any wonder I'm not crazy? Is it any wonder I'm sane at all?
  9. They wanted to find more than they did. The charges are absurd, but especially the second. They'd have had much better charges for obstruction of justice in the Mueller probe or violation of election law (though I guess they thought the quid pro quo was not a high crime).
  10. Nothing in the Constitution on it, just tradition. From Wiki (assume this is the complete list of references to impeachment). Article I, Section 2, Clause 5 provides: The House of Representatives ... shall have the sole Power of Impeachment. Article I, Section 3, Clauses 6 and 7 provide: The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two-thirds of the Members present. Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States; but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law. Article II, Section 2 provides: [The President] ... shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment. Article II, Section 4 provides: The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.[3]
  11. The Constitution says nothing about any process between the House and Senate for the steps from impeaching to starting the trial for impeachment. My Constitutional from-the-hip analysis is that McConnell should try to hold the trial even if Nancy doesn't formally deliver the articles. That would be the proper countermove here. Is this your prediction? The betting world wants to know and bet the opposite. You were wrong about Trump after friggin' years posting about how the Deep State would drive Hillary to victory. You were wrong about the red wave. I just want to see what you're predicting here. So far the only thing I've seen you commit to is that Biden has no chance to win the nomination, something you've said many times.

  14. Nothing here? Didn't think so. I've challenged you a bunch of times lately on your fictional narratives about my positions, only to be greeted by crickets. Today's the day right? The 19th?
  15. I took a position early? Really? My position pretty early was that Russia interefered. And even Trump admits that, though I'm not sure if you do. And I've said many times that I don't think Trump colluded with Russia, and also that I hoped no president ever would. But you'd never admit that would you? Too inconvenient for the simple way you picture things in good vs evil. Grow up. Life's not a conspiracy of a global cabal of pedophiles vs white-caped superheroes of justice.
  16. I know that I speak for all of us watching the debate tonight when I say that I look forward to hearing from Tom Steyer.
  17. Because I wanted to know something at the beginning of all of this? Go away. We all wanted to know what was going on at the beginning of this. And I echoed Watergate because it was a good quote. So is this one: When will this "long national nightmare" be over? Whose side moran? I do like it when you predict the outcomes of elections!
  18. Yup. Politically shrewd. Scummy, but shrewd. And they can add to the articles when Trump does the next dumb thing. Very ugly way to politic in the same way messing with the Garland nomination was dirty pool. Both set a very bad precedent.
  19. Interesting political manuever here if Nancy can deny Trump's Senate acquittal victory lap. The Dems get to say Trump got impeached and they can run on that simple fact. The correct rebuttal that the House didn't send the articles to the Senate for the trial, where Trump would have gotten off--That's not a good soundbyte.
  20. Thanks for this early Xmas gift!
  21. Because of your warning, I made it through the day. Keep up the campaign of fear. It's working. The whole board is his stash ffs!
