No matter how they come out, the #impeachment hearings that now appear to be on their way will turn out to be a long overdue family conversation and massive online civics course where we, as Americans, get to grapple with some really important questions. Leave your examples below

Ex. 2: If you continue to pursue potential business deals involving said foreign power, or any other entity looking to do business with you, and refuse to divest or put everything in a blind trust (or even make routine disclosures), have you made yourself susceptible to bribery?

1/ AG Barr’s assertion that @wikileaks publication is not a crime because it didn’t participate in the hacks is unpersuasive. Wikileaks was aware that the info had been acquired unlawfully, solicited more data, and actively coordinated dumps in furtherance of the criminal purpose
