Gettin' My Mind Right, Boss!

It’s now indisputable that Sondland was executing a bribery scheme directly to the Ukrainians, telling people in real time it came from Trump. If he was lying or preposterously extorting Ukraine on his own, why does he still have a job? He serves at the pleasure of the president.

So do we.

The more I talk talk to sources, the more i’m hearing America’s betrayal of the Kurds, and the humiliation, “misogynistic” “squashing” of US ambassador in Ukraine for political motivations makes people think, we, Americans, have become the “bad guys.” Hearing it was gut punch.

What will Gym complain about now? The Kurds? Erdogan? Schiff?

A standing ovation for Marie Yovanovitch from the hearing audience, and an embarrassed silence from the president’s defenders. https://t.co/igYt0my7zS

I guess that hearsay complaint is gone now, huh? What's the next shameless distraction?

What a pack of sordid, petty, incompetent crooks, and what a pack of amoral, servile throne-sniffers supporting them.

Trump, in the meantime, has posted six tweets urging voters in Louisiana to get out and vote. He wants something he can call a win this week.

So do the Kurds. So does America.
