. @JoeBiden must announce that if the GOP rushes to pack the Court, the Dems will expand the SCOTUS to 11 justices, and expand the lower federal courts by 70 to 100 new judgeships, which have long been needed. In short, he will depoliticize the federal judiciary!

Parnas, Rudy, Nunes, Barr, Pompeo, Pence — there is a desperate need for a special prosecutor, immediately! Congress does not have prosecutors or a grand jury to deal with this conspicuous corruption, and these indictable characters. SDNY appears uninterested.

Americans cannot get a fair Senate Impeachment trial of Trump’s insurrection with insurrectionists on the jury. Senators Hawley, Cruz, Graham, Johnson and others who pushed the big lie are co-conspirators and should not sit in judgment of Trump, rather they MUST BE DISQUALIFIED!

If Trump starts investigating the investigators -- meaning Mueller & Co. -- the policy of not indicting a sitting president must be canceled. Trump should be indicted for obstruction of justice -- which is ongoing. Do it by every attorney in the DOJ walking out if it is not done!

URGENT: Trump wants to end America sovereignty by allowing foreign governments to help him win. It is against the law and 230 years of practice. He wants American voters to choose elected leaders beholden to foreign powers, not Americans. The act of a dictator! Supported by GOP??

That Barr has launched a criminal investigation of the origins of the Russia investigation but not launched an investigation of the Ukrainian matters smells more than fishy, it smell like whatever scum smells like! Barr sure knows how to look like an evil doer...

I have been convinced for weeks that the White House has been pushing the rumor that Mueller is finishing, about to report, and has found nothing more than we already know. This is baloney. Mueller is building a giant conspiracy to defraud the USA — 18 USC 371. Stay tuned!

The COVID-19 pandemic is way beyond Trump’s skill set. He must delegate dealing with this crisis to someone who can handle it. Only states with able governors are going to survive unless Trump gets out of the way. Trump is part of the problem not part of the solution!

Trump wants to campaign 6 days a week for Republicans. That’s a good plan. Keeps him out of trouble in Washington. His base loves him. His ego needs them. He doesn’t have a clue how to govern or lead so just let him hold rallies and talk gibberish, and play president.

So Rudy owns The Donald. Blackmailing the President of the United States on Fox News is fitting! Does America really want a POTUS owned by Rudy Giuliani. Wonder if Rudy has a guaranteed pardon if Lev or Igor turn on him in the SDNY? Trump’s presidency is like a Mafia soap opera!

. @RudyGiuliani went on national TV to warn @realDonaldTrump that he has “insurance” if the president tries to throw him under the bus. What type of blackmail do you think it is — financial, sexual, criminal or other?

Not sure why the mainstream media takes this abuse. Don’t cover these rallies and Trump will beg them to return and the media can set its terms! Trump has made media abuse part of his shtick. Media is playing his game. They should STOP!

Have covered a lot of Trump rallies, but never seen press pen as locked down as it is here in Council Bluffs. Have now been escorted to the bathrooms and yelled at by advance team for attempting to talk with Trump supporters in the crowd.

What is alarming is how you — Mitch McConnell — have corrupted the High Court confirmation process by denying Judge Garland a hearing and now seek to jam another sexual predator onto the Court. Thankfully the Dems are acting responsibly! Your rush is artificial, you fear truth.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says it's "disturbing" that Democrats did not reveal information on Kavanaugh accuser earlier: "It's pretty obvious this is all about delaying the process, but the accuser certainly does deserve a right to be heard"

ABSOLUTELY! Indeed, if the House cannot get a fair trial, the Articles should not go to the Senate, and the investigation of Trump must continue! If rules for a fair trial are not agreed upon make it a campaign issue everywhere!

BREAKING NEWS: Schumer’s proposal to McConnell. If he rejects these reasonable ground rules & insists on a non-trial, the House should consider treating that as a breach of the Senate’s oath & withholding the Articles until the Senate reconsiders

We all surely understand two rules about the Trump presidency: (1) tomorrow will be worse; and (2) there is no low that is too low to sink. Thus, tomorrow is always worse, and it will bring a new low. Just wait and watch!

Trump’s pathetic letter embodies all the reasons he should not be President and why he is in the mess he has created for himself. As always others will fix it (here Senate GOP) so he can do even worse next time. Real solution, resign Donald, you’re unfit!

Hey Mitch, Clinton’s articles of impeachment were developed in secret grand jury proceedings by Ken Starr whose staff selectively leaked negative info. The proceedings on Trump are nothing like the circus Newt created, who impeached Clinton for an affair while he was having one!

On the Senate floor, Mitch McConnell rips into Democrats’ “impeachment obsession” on procedural grounds without defending any of President Trump’s actions. “House Democrats have wasted no time throwing fairness and precedent to the wind,” he says.
