The mouse has officially killed the fox.
In a move at once unsurprising and highly symbolic, the Walt Disney Company is dropping the “Fox” brand from the 21st Century Fox assets it acquired last March, Variety has learned. The 20th Century Fox film studio will become 20th Century Studios, and Fox Searchlight Pictures will become simply Searchlight Pictures.

Lev Parnas: Giuliani associate implicates Trump in Ukraine scheme
Lev Parnas, the Soviet-born businessman whose work in Ukraine with President Donald Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani stands at the center of the impeachment inquiry, implicated the President Wednesday in an interview with CNN in which he said that their efforts were "all ...

Ukraine Opens Investigation of Giuliani
Ukrainian authorities said Thursday they had opened a criminal investigation into whether the former US ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch was under surveillance by associates of Rudy Giuliani while in Kyiv last spring.

“The question is no longer ‘Should we impeach Mike Pence?’ ” one expert said. “The question is ‘How can we afford not to?’ - Andy Borowitz

Yep, Trump Broke The Law Withholding Aid To Ukraine. What's the Penalty?
Today, GAO issued a legal decision concluding that the Office of Management and Budget violated the law when it withheld approximately $214 million appropriated to DOD for security assistance to Ukraine. The President has narrow, limited authority to withhold appropriations under the Impoundment Control Act of 1974. OMB told GAO that it withheld the funds to ensure that they were not spent “in a manner that could conflict with the President’s foreign policy.” The law does not permit OMB to withhold funds for policy reasons.

Pelosi Pounces On Facebook
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) slammed tech giant Facebook on Thursday, accusing the social media company of abusing technology to mislead users and calling its behavior "shameful."
“The Facebook business model is strictly to make money. They don't care about the impact on children, they don't care about truth, they don't care about where this is all coming from, and they have said even if they know it's not true they will print it,” Pelosi said at a press conference.

McConnell courts GOP and Trump amid tensions over impeachment witnesses

McConnell courts GOP and Trump amid tensions over impeachment witnesses
The Senate majority leader is weighing strategy with key Republicans and keeping his plans close to the vest.

Remember when reporters were like Mitch has got the votes and a plan because he’s so savvy and then we found out last night he was still meeting with people like Ted Cruz to try to figure out how to do this and whether to call Hunter Biden? - Adam Parkhomenko

Please call Hunter Biden as a witness and Joe Biden. And while you're at it call Hillary and Obama, too!

The Entire Russian Government Resigned. All of Them.
The entire Russian government is resigning, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev announced on Russian state television Wednesday.
Russian President Vladimir Putin thanked members of the government for their work but added that "not everything worked out." Putin added that in the near future he will meet with each member of the cabinet.

Putin is extremely risk averse and almost never fires anyone. For him to sack the PM and change the constitution four years before his term is up suggests he’s deeply afraid of something. What that is, we have still to find out. - Bill Browder

We're sitting here, literally watching Trump plot the death of his own ambassador while the Senate Majority Leader openly refuses to do anything about it...

Bishops Remind Texas Governor of Jesus' Words
All 16 of Texas' Catholic bishops have issued a joint statement slamming Gov. Greg Abbott, who is Catholic, for announcing the state will bar refugees in 2020.
The bishops call Abbott's decision "misguided" and say it "denies people who are fleeing persecution, including religious persecution, from being able to bring their gifts and talents to our state and contribute to the general common good of all Texans."
"As Catholics, an essential aspect of our faith is to welcome the stranger and care for the alien," the bishops say in the statement, issued Friday.
