The next 45 minutes are going to be really, really painful.
Worth noting...Nunes completely AVOIDED asking about the demand for an investigation into Burisma/the Bidens...

So far, the GOP lawyer has done the same.

The GOP lawyer has moved onto Burmisma/the Bidens for the last 15 minutes of questioning.

#HUGE: Democrat Andy Beshear is the APPARENT WINNER of KY Governor race!

Republican Gov. Matt Bevin is one of the worst governors in the country.

Trump, McConnell, and Rand Paul ALL put their weight behind him last night.

And Bevin STILL lost in a state that Trump won by 30%!
#FTR: Just last night, Trump made clear what a potential loss in Kentucky would mean for him and the Republican party.

He'll soon claim the opposite.

DON'T let him forget it...

#PASTBLAST: My FIRST thread on Gov. Matt Bevin, who I've tracked since...

I may have misspelled his name back then, but it quickly became clear that he was ACTIVELY working against the interests of the people of KY in every way imaginable.

Good riddance!

#WOW: Hillary DIDN'T say the "Russians" were grooming Tulsi Gabbard.

She said "REPUBLICANS" were grooming her for a 3rd party run.

"Mr. Merrill said late Friday evening that Mrs. Clinton’s initial “grooming” claim had referred to Republicans, not Russia, as initially reported."
#FTR: The article has been updated...but the reporter has NOT corrected her tweet.

Shortly after tweeting out the incorrect article, she retweeted the suggestion that Tulsi's primary challenger for her congress is not a serious opponent.

She's not even trying to hide her bias.
#PS: Hillary never even said Tulsi's name.

You should listen to the interview starting ~43 mins in.

The questions are about Republicans, who she refers to as "they."

She even says "they" and adds "and the Russians"...JUST before the misreported quote.

Not the first thing that comes to mind upon viewing this...but for the record, that's the same suit she wore at the debate.
She also wore it on Friday to attack Hillary on Tucker Carlson's white supremacy power hour.

#JustSaying

Honestly, clothing doesn't matter. What she says does.

But upon coming across her video today for the 1000th time on mute, I realized she's worn the same suit on at least 3 of the last 5 days. 2 of which were to respond to Hillary's comments (where she wasn't mentioned by name).

🇺🇸Here we go. Chair @AdamSchiff gaveled in. Trump Impeachment Hearings have begun at 10:05 am

Dedicating this thread to @RepCummings who said: "When we're dancing with the angels, the question will be asked: In 2019, what did we do to make sure we kept our democracy intact?"

1/
@AdamSchiff @RepCummings Schiff begins by mapping out procedure. Chair Schiff will make an opening statement, then Ranking Member Nunes. Before he can finish, Rep. Ratcliffe interrupted. Wants to know how many 45 minute rounds of questioning Schiff and Nunes will each have. Schiff said not clear yet.

2/
@AdamSchiff @RepCummings Schiff begins his opening statement by reminding us that Russia invaded Ukraine. Did Trump seek to exploit ally's vulnerability to Russia by conditioning official acts on their willingness to assist in investigations to help Trump's re-election campaign.

So the Republicans are hanging their #impeachment case on four points, circulated to their members today. If this is the best they've got, they're in trouble. I will explain.
Point 1: the call summary.

Trump's aides know a) he's not the most coherent speaker and b) the kingpin never actually says the incriminating thing.

So they have to set the context for the call.

They communicate the actual ask on *three* occasions before the 25th call.
Trump's aides tell Ukrainians a WH visit is conditioned on investigations into Hunter Biden & 2016 on:

July 2, in Toronto when Volker talks to Zelenskyy.
July 10, at the WH when Sondland meets a Ukrainian delegation.
July 19, on a phone call between Sondland & Zelenskyy.

One viral image being shared on social media used a bit of reverse psychology, asking what Americans would think if the details of this story involved the #tRump family rather than the #Biden family. #GreatWhiteHunter

#HunterBiden was a senior VP for financial services giant #MBNA — an arrangement that drew criticism during the 2008 elections for potential conflict of interests.
As senator, #JoeBiden spearheaded legislation that would have affected MBNA’s business. cnbc.com/2014/05/13/bid… #DNC

Worth noting this is a huge contrast with (for example) Shulamith Firestone, who was radical to a far greater degree than Janice Raymond and Mary Daly, and who was super enthusiastic about the idea of artificial womb technology and the "abolition of motherhood"
Firestone wanted to abolish the concepts of parenthood and childhood, and ultimately to free humanity from biology, a concept she called "cybernation" - what we today would call "transhumanism"
It seems to me that the core of radfem ideology - the root of gendered oppression began in the biology of reproduction - is obviously true

The question is where to go from there, and you end up with two paths, the transhumanist path and the path of being a goddamn Catholic
