'THIS IS AN ASSAULT ON AMERICA': Trump Seethes as Impeachment Vote Nears

'THIS IS AN ASSAULT ON AMERICA': Trump Seethes as Impeachment Vote Nears
President Donald Trump slammed the impeachment attempt against him as “an assault on America, and an assault on the Republican Party,” in a Twitter post, Wednesday.
“SUCH ATROCIOUS LIES BY THE RADICAL LEFT, DO NOTHING DEMOCRATS,” posted Trump in all-caps. “THIS IS AN ASSAULT ON AMERICA, AND AN ASSAULT ON THE REPUBLICAN PARTY!!!!”

Far as I can tell, Democrats are talking about facts while Republicans are talking about impeaching Obama, calling FDR in for questions and comparing Trump to Christ.

Remember - impeaching a president for bribing & shaking down an ally and obstructing the investigation IS NOT PARTISAN.

It's constitutional.

It's defending him that's partisan. - John Fugelsang


Round and Round He Goes, Where Rudy Stops, Nobody Knows

Giuliani on Yovanovitch: ‘I Forced Her Out Because She’s Corrupt’

Giuliani on Yovanovitch: ‘I Forced Her Out Because She’s Corrupt’
Rudy Giuliani was recently in Ukraine, and tonight he appeared on Fox News to talk with Laura Ingraham about his push to get Marie Yovanovitch ousted as U.S. ambassador to Ukraine.
Giuliani admitted to the New Yorker, “I believed that I needed Yovanovitch out of the way. She was going to make the investigations difficult for everybody.”


Rudy Colludy and Trump sound like New York mobsters.

Giuliani’s admission today that got Ambassador Yovanovitch fired in order to more easily enlist the State Dept in Trump’s crimes is just confirmation of the obvious. 
But his shamelessness is a reminder that the corruption is ongoing. 
It never stopped. - Sen. Chris Murphy
