IMPEACHMENT

😱

Rudy Giuliani butt-dialed an NBC News reporter — twice — leaving long voicemail messages in which he's heard discussing Joe Biden, business in Bahrain and his need for cash. By @richschapiro https://t.co/52GCnjhoJC

Mueller Grand Jury

BREAKING: House Judiciary Committee wins access to Mueller’s grand jury files, per an order from U.S. District Court Chief Judge Beryl Howell.

Major victory for House Dems, even as the focus of the impeachment inquiry has shifted to Ukraine.

closed doors

Andrew Napolitano: "As frustrating as it may be to have these hearings going on behind closed doors … they are consistent with the rules. … When were the rules written last? In January of 2015. And who signed them? John Boehner. And who enacted them? A Republican majority." pic.twitter.com/Zl10ZNugf4

And one more time, the formal impeachment hearings against Richard Nixon in the House Judiciary Committee in 1974 was also a "closed door impeachment process."https://t.co/ngo0grllGP

Lindsey Graham was a House manager in the Clinton impeachment and, as part of that, he and his colleagues carried out a "closed door impeachment process" https://t.co/R7W4WY1DBT pic.twitter.com/cLCvyG0wy2

So far:
Australia said we stand by Downer
Italy: We weren't involved with Mifsud
UK: Steele is honest, tho has a habit of trusting people like GOP-backer Oleg Deripaska
Ukraine: Coerced into pretending its corrupt ex-prosecutors are honest

The message the @realDonaldTrump Administration is sending is that @POTUS will continue to solicit foreign interference in American elections unless he is stopped.

That gives the House of Representatives very little choice doesn't it? https://t.co/nygNEnOTOJ

Actual quantum supremacy is a critical element of long-term US national security interests. That’s why it is so disturbing that the president’s know-nothing daughter is posing as the administration’s face on the issue and that she thinks this represents genuine “supremacy.” https://t.co/V8q3VA6IsR

These 7 senators have RULED OUT impeachment. That means they don't want to hear evidence. It means they don't care if DJT is a lying traitor. They simply don't care. How does this country recover from that level of depravity in government? pic.twitter.com/uxF5DdsWol

Barr – DOJ – criminal investigation

Special Counsel investigation resulted in:

-34 indictments
-8 convictions/guilty pleas
-A finding that Russia interfered in US elections in a sweeping & systematic manner

AG Barr of @TheJusticeDept is now essentially trying to say that none of that should have happened. Really? https://t.co/1yF3pMI24M

— Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) October 25, 2019

and

considering they can’t charge a single person without opening themselves to a disastrous discovery process it’s a sure bet this is just a perfunctory avenue to release what will amount to an even more incompetently nonsensical version of the nunes memo https://t.co/6nK49lOL1p

move outside executive

Barr proves to me that we may need to move DOJ outside of the Executive Branch and into a space that the Fed occupies. There's nothing in the Constitution that talks about a Department of Justice being required to be an executive agency if I'm right

Today, Laura Cooper did her lawful duty and answered questions from both parties.

She did so notwithstanding efforts by the President to stop her, and when those failed, efforts by his GOP allies in Congress to do the same.
