@realDonaldTrump @DevinCow @SenSasse @chrislhayes @washingtonpost #ImpeachingHearing #TrumpIsTheUglyAmerican As an attorney with significant years handling white collar crime, white collar criminals before they are ever under a cloud of suspicion often come into an attorney’s
office suffering hysterical paranoia that they are being illegally wiretaped. Trump’s allegations early on he was being wiretapped when we have proof he wasn’t, is a clear example of a persons conducting a criminal enterprise on his phones and suffering paranoia and guilt.
The Inspector General’s report clearly and convincingly affirms there was no illegal wiretapping, there were no informants inserted into the Trump campaign and there was no “spying” on the Trump campaign. THE IS NOT DEEP STATE CONSPIRACY EXCEPT BY TRUMP AND GIULIANI.

.@RepRatcliffe just answered the Q Dems have been asking. Yes, he says, it's ok for a POTUS to solicit a foreign government to interfere in a U.S. election.

In doing so, he, says we do it all the time.

This is false and in many serious ways.

@RepRatcliffe Ratcliffe said the Obama administration solicited help from our allies to investigate Trump.

What's the truth? Our allies, Australia, came to US because they feared for our n'tl security:

@RepRatcliffe Moreover, this was an investigation initiated and conducted by LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS at the FBI, not a U.S. president investigating someone he feared running against.

Watching #ImpeachingHearing and reading James McPherson's definitive history of the Civil War, Battlecry of Freedom, I can't escape a conclusion that crazed, self-righteous politicians hurling themselves on the absolute wrongest side of history is a sacred American tradition.
Consider this, for example. In the years following the independence, slavery was universally considered evil in America, albeit a necessary one. Even the South was mostly of the opinion that it will eventually disappear, though definitely not very soon...
All this began to change once America started expanding and the South was faced with the probability of becoming substantially outnumbered. Looking at a perpetual minority status and the loss of its disproportionately large legislative pull, the South quickly radicalized...

Donald Trump's day so far:

- #ImpeachingHearing is not going Trump's way
- Democratic counsel Daniel Goldman is kicking ass

- DOJ "origins" probe is a bust
- Bill Barr has failed him again
- Trump is going to prison
- It's still only noon
The real reason House Republicans are still using this idiot Steve Castor palmerreport.com/politics/steve…

Here's some background about #FionaHill naming #conspiracytheories against #Soros as the new "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" at the #ImpeachmentHearings. (1/16)
Right-wing regimes have long broken down the fabric of political protest by using the antisemitic notion of rich Jewish financiers as the “puppet masters” of social unrest. #ImpeachingHearing (2/16)
During the Russian Revolution, the Tsar’s secret police disseminated the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, a fictional account of a meeting of rich Jews plotting to break down the society of their “host countries” and rule the world through the promotion of social upheaval. (3/16)

Nunes reads into the record a transcript of the first phone call between Donald Trump and President Zelenskiy. Trump accepts an invitation to attend Zelinskiy's inauguration or at least to send a representative "at a very high level".
On the call, Trump also invites Zelinskiy to the White House. Schiff called on Donald Trump to release thousands of other documents requested by the inquiry. Here is the *ROUGH* transcript. assets.documentcloud.org/documents/6550…
