What do you know? It has gotten worse.
Thanks, Obama.
/sarcasm for the folks in the back.
Putting out intentionally misleading tweets and headlines, though? Just why?
But what about NC for Cal?
Seriously, though, I had to do a double take to figure out which state was involved.
It looks minor key legit. Opposition research against the sitting ambassador they wanted to replace, coupled with threats from Executive and State Dept, to implement a new Russia favorable policy in Ukraine. It's older than the phone call, and seems relevant.
LOL hell know. Just makes me read up on his challengers. The ad is such hot air and double talk
Cunningham's a good recruit.
I'd like to see someone better step up in Georgia's special election, but other than that Senate recruitment seems fine (with the sole exception remaining Montana, where anyone but Bullock is in for a Likely R race at best - that being said, Wilmot Collins should at least perform respectably). Kelly (AZ), Hickenlooper (CO), Gideon (ME), Cunningham, Ossoff (GA), Hegar (TX), Greenfield (IA), Grissom (KS) and McGrath (KY) all seem like they'll do about as well as Generic D, with Kelly and Hickenlooper in particular being great recruits (caveat: Hickenlooper sucks and I don't like him, I'm speaking purely in terms of on-paper electability).
Yep npr just letting an R come on from Indiana and spin that nytimes story and don't issue any pushback other than a correction at the end of the segment. Also no pushback on that we are only in the inquiry phase when he's complaining about judiciary committee not bringing a full floor vote.
How long until Nickelback issues a statement telling him to not do that?
how many more bands do we need to come out against him? Maybe Bowling for Soup should just put out a preemptive denouement.

Isn't the Wapo Pence article just a collection of public information? We already knew Trump has having him meet with the Ukrainian President. The question is whether Pence knew the true motif or if he was just a pawn. The article doesn't really make this clear either way.
Anybody have a link to that tweet that suggested Schiff is immune to defamation / slander while in official congressional session? wrt his paraphrasing the other day. It was a tweet in this thread maybe yesterday? (Or 10,000 years ago in trump time dialation)
Not like anyone follows or enforces that. Seems like an easy way for Republicans to stop people from saying Moscow Mitch.
you are reading it backwards. He can't get sued because congress people's official speech is protected (even if it's libel)
I know what tweet you're talking about and good lucking trying to find it. I assume it's about this issue: https://definitions.uslegal.com/c/congressional-immunity/
Did we know a Pence aide was on the call before? I think that's new info?
That's why Harry Reid could accuse Mitt Romney of hiding something in his taxes (because Harry Reid actually knew how to be a leader.)
Far as I can tell, their ineffectual attempts to "both sides" this has been an ongoing disaster in slow motion. Even this thing with Schiff really isn't gaining traction because it got buried in that bizarre press conference with the Finnish.
I'll be amazed if they don't can at least some of their Nazi's by the end of all of this.
Trump has no sense of irony in claiming that people sharing one round of golf ever makes them BFFs who'd commit crimes for one another. Then again he might actually think that based on personal experience.
Whatever fake conspiracy surrounds the eventual Dem nominee, there will be a "development" in late October 2020 which the NYT will blare across the front page.
So. Is it still funny and okay for people to write about how Biden is 10,000 years old and "sundowning" now that Birdie has had an age and health issue...
"Elizabeth Warren liked the Disney Star Wars movies revealed in stolen texts messages from a foreign disruptor looking to help Trump"
yep. Where we are at is trump can make things up for the DOJ to look into and they'll do it.
elizabeth Warren violated campaign finance law and committed tax fraud (as an example obviously).
That's where we're at and it's frightening.
It's a bit odd. Also, a slightly different reaction compared to when Hilary fainted...
But, I hope he gets well soon.

So uh. Bernie's surgery has a general recommendation of a few months of rehab at minimum? I'm... thinking he's not going to do that.
I guess the good news is Barr is already widely seen as a stooge outside of Trump's base.
The Hillary reaction was stupid. People of all ages and health can get pneumonia and can faint in stressful situations.
A possible heart attack is kind of a big deal, especially in an elderly person. I certainly hope he recovers fully, but his age has always been a consideration and it should continue to be a consideration. Same for Biden.

A lot of it depends on any underlying health issues. Like, my dad had pretty major blockage, had two stents put in. He was doing cardiac rehab for about a month or two. He hadn't even had a heart attack, just the blockages had damaged some of the heart muscle a bit. Even during that time, while he felt better and had no more real chest pain, he wasn't up to doing things that were strenuous or required a lot of walking/standing for months. I genuinely don't know how he can campaign effectively.
And, I swear to god, this is not me bitch crackering him.Even though he's not my choice, I don't want anything bad to happen to the guy. I think he's well meaning, even if he and I disagree on a lot. I wouldn't wish health issues on my worst enemy.

I don't think the smoke has cleared yet but nobody has fully absorbed what Bernie having a heart attack and a double bypass actually means yet.
TLDR: it changes everything.
A double bypass? Where did you hear that? The last I heard, it was just an angioplasty to insert stents.
