Asshole republicans

1. Indeed. They've got nothing left but to roll longitudinally on themselves.

5. And how about the unredacted Mueller report,

6. Sitting in a Midas shop waiting for snow tires.

Trying to follow the hearing which is on the TV. Two many people talking on cell phones but every now and then there is quiet and I attempt to follow. The reference to a drug deal really threw me. Things are looking desperate.

8. Sondland's accusing Bolton of lying may cause Bolton to change

his mind about only appearing (someday) if subpoenaed. At least that's the speculation with this testimony implicating Bolton and Pompeo, as well as others.

10. They're saying it wasn't an illicit second channel that

[Hortensis]

12. But not actually unexpected, right? We already knew

everyone had to at very least know as this went on around them.

14. I'm encouraged to hope it'll ruin Pence. We'll see.
