It was a perfect call. The only people who were worried were the ones who heard Schiff's lies.
As a woman who lived through the horsefuckery that was 2016, I won't believe it until I see it.
Favorability ratings in this poll:
Dem Party (+2)
GOP (-15)
GCB: D+11
Joe Biden (+5)
Liz Warren (+6)
Nancy Pelosi (-6)
Moscow Mitch (-23)
Trump (-13)
Hillary (-13) smh
Rudy (-22) lulz

It really speaks to Trump's tremendous modesty that he didn't want everyone to see his perfect call.
Even that may not be enough.
Even if you wake up to a Warren presidency, you're going to be waking up to a new world of right-wing smears and Republican efforts to delegitimize her authority. Obama won, but they also ground him down with all the bullshit.
Does it matter? She's garbage regardless.
It's too late for us.
But yeah hopefully more people can now see she's a GOP scud missile with the sole purpose of damaging viable candidates or just causing chaos in general.
This is great.
Someone should post a summary like this everyday at 12am ET/9pm PT because for the last 3 weeks it's been impossible to keep up with all the day's news.
Fiona Hill was Trump''s former Russia advisor for that didn't know (like me until I looked it up haha)
She left in August.
His confirmation has been tied up, not because he's a corporate ass but because he paid a settlement to women at Accuweather for "sexual harassment and a hostile work environment." That was February (best source I could find on it, with all the insanity of this administration stuff like "The guy who makes sure we don't get killed by hurricanes" slips through the cracks)
All of it is so transparent. It really pisses me off how republicans just want to brush it off.
Can they stop her from testifying?
Can they stop her from testifying?
So mission accomplished for Trump's election interference quest.
Right. I really doubted it would go under my radar but thought I would ask anyway.

cant tell if this is covering for trump, ala it was ghouliani not trump see!
Actually, I would have thought it would have damaged Biden more. 10% is really pretty good.
However, that 31% for Bernie is a problem. It's not like he was winning or moving in the right direction before the heart attack. Also, 15% of people say it makes them more likely to vote for him. I think we know which 15% they are.
I would understand Bernie's determination to stay in the race in a situation where he is the only progressive running, and if he dipped we'd be guaranteed stuck with Biden or worse. But that's not the case. It's like, someone needs to whisper to him: "Sweetie, Warren's gonna be president. You can rest now."
As for the SDNY arrest, Democrats should just let it play out on its own. No need to get too side-tracked trying to fold this into their investigation except for the parts that already naturally overlap.
This arrest almost single-handily takes down the talking-point of Trump and associates trying to weed out corruption in Ukraine. How can Trump and GOP congressmen say with a straight face, "they only care about corruption no matter the source" when their point-man Rudy was in daily contact/coordination with two corrupt criminals working corruptly on their behalf. This will make the Abuse of Power charge with impeachment more powerful because it removes the haze of "fighting corruption".
DEMs need to just focus on getting witnesses to actually show up and getting actual documentation/transcripts/texts. Those will be the things that make the impeachment case stronger not chasing after SDNY's investigation. All those "concerned" national security officials from the Wapo/WSJ, the Dems need to get at least one of them in a witness chair in front of the public saying the July 25th call "scared the shit out of them" and thought it might be "illegal". That's what puts impeachment over the edge and puts GOP Senators on the spot because public opinion will be firmly on the side of impeachment at that point.

If Bernie drops out, half his staff will endorse Jill Stein though.
Yeah, everything seems to be going south for him. 🤐 On the 15%
Yeah, I'm confused by the wording. Is this just throwing Giuliani and Sondland under the bus?
Surprise. As was stated at the time, he was in 3rd place before facing a) a decline in momentum as a result of (rightly) resting more to recover, b) people already concerned about age deciding that's settled. Given all that, I don't see a path to the nomination.
As a black person who really, REALLY couldn't truly believe it in 2008 until election night, I don't blame you whatsofuckingever.
All of this news is exciting, oh so exciting. But I try not to get too happy because while I feel more strongly now more than ever that he will be impeached, I'm still certain the senate will throw it out. And we will still have a Russian stooge in the Oval Office who no doubt has a vested interest in interfering with the election by any means that he can muster.
Of course not, because they can't actually voice their actual objections.
I think it's more that Trump was having them run shadow policy that the 'real' administration wouldn't do, which would be worse for Trump. Trump's people are reportedly worried:
Hill's planned testimony has stoked fear among people close to Trump, per a former senior White House official. Also a key test for whether House can get testimony from *former* officials despite threat White House may assert executive privilege. W/
