Mitch McConnell vows ‘total coordination’ with Trump on Senate impeachment trial

Mitch McConnell vows ‘total coordination’ with Trump on Senate impeachment trial
Mitch McConnell insists there’s no daylight with the White House when it comes to a Senate impeachment trial.
The powerful Senate Majority Leader claimed there would be “total coordination” with President Trump, even though the two men have outlined starkly different outlines of how things will play out when the impeachment drama gets to the upper chamber.

Trump: I thought it was 3.

Departing Kentucky Governor Pardons Gruesome Murderer. Dear God, Why?
It’s not clear if Betty Carnes was killed by asphyxiation or by the eight blows to her head that Delmar Partin delivered with a metal pipe. The coroner couldn’t tell which killed the mother of three first, but it was very clear that her head was then chopped off and placed on her lap in a 55-gallon barrel that was destined for a toxic waste site.
On Monday, departing Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin pardoned and commuted the sentence of Partin, who was convicted of killing her at the factory where they both worked in Barbourville in 1994.
In his order, Bevin said he pardoned Partin because potential DNA evidence had not been tested.

Judiciary Committee clashes over impeachment ahead of vote to send articles to the floor
The House Judiciary Committee on Thursday is taking a major step forward to impeaching President Donald Trump as it works to approve the articles of impeachment and send them to the House floor for a full chamber vote expected next week.

The FBI is lying. The IG is lying. The Ambassador is lying. The NSC is lying. The advisor to VP Pence is lying. The Special Prosecutor was lying. The women were lying. The guy saying he already built a border wall and posting his head on Sly Stallone's body is telling the truth? - Jeremy Newberger

Horowitz: 'Very concerned' about FBI leaks to Giuliani

Horowitz: 'Very concerned' about FBI leaks to Giuliani
Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz said on Wednesday that he is "very concerned" about leaks from FBI field offices to Rudy Giuliani, President Trump's personal lawyer, and other individuals.


The political theater unfolding in the Senate Judiciary Committee today is premised on the fantastical notion that the FBI investigated Trump to stop him from becoming president, which requires you to ignore the fact that the FBI released information about Clinton and not Trump. - Walter Shaub





"It would be easy to walk away and say ‘I can’t deal with this. I can’t tell fact from fiction. I don’t wanna live in an alternative reality. I’m checking out. Well that’s what other side wants us to do, my friends. They want us to just throw our hands up in despair...” - HRC
