Also Trump
Trump, Donors, Soleimani, and not giving a fuck up a cat’s ass about the budget:
To those who criticized his spending and the growing national debt, Trump said: “Who the hell cares about the budget? We’re going to have a country.”
Spoken like a true conservative.
“We’re going to have a country.”
That’s incredibly ominous. Trump and mega-donors wanting to own the US and to hell with everyone else.
Schlossberg responded that Pence "is right to celebrate Ross
OH HELL NO! The historical consensus seems to be that Ross took a big fat bribe to vote against impeachment.
Yep. No surprise to me that they didn’t endorse Sanders.
eta: “And so I think this was a smart move and maybe for his own personal safety — this was Lev Parnas’ only play to get the information out to the American people so he doesn’t get Epstein-ed.”
And that sounds reasonable in this timeline.
Is it “incredible”?
I can’t tell from just those two Tweets if this is something worth caring about . . .
I think this is another one of those things that would be incredible (as in hard to believe) if it happened in any other administration.
NSC Senior Director for European and Russian Affairs was escorted from White House grounds on Friday and placed on “Administrative Leave” pending a “security-related investigation.” So if this had been Obama’s administration the weekend talking heads would have spent their entire shows speculating about what happened. Now we’re getting information that the director may have been lured with sex into a situation where their laptop and phone could be stolen. Again, under Obama this would be the headline of the day - possible security breach.
But under Trump? Who cares if a recently appointed inept director at the NSC had a laptop stolen by a Russian operative after falling for the actual oldest spy trick in the book? If the Russians want to know state secrets don’t they just phone Trump and ask?
If by not impeaching she means tarring and feathering Trump and riding him out of the country on a rail then yes.

I do not have enough middle fingers to respond adequately.
WASHINGTON — Senator Mitch McConnell, the majority leader, unveiled ground rules on Monday for President Trump’s impeachment trial that would attempt to speed the proceeding along and refuse to admit the evidence against the president unearthed by the House without a separate vote.
