The @RepJasonCrow Schiff tagteam tonight made the strongest arguments I've heard from Dems: the national security case for impeachment, & the issue of moral leadership.

Incredibly effective & clear. Crushed the attempted reply.

This is, after all, why this matters so damn much
Why?

Because while we have to deal with this, today we're reminded the Saudis hacked Bezos and then dismembered a WaPo journalist. POTUS says nothing. POTUS and SecState lean on Saudis for Iran obsession. They ignore intelligence and are blind to real regional dynamics.
Why?

Because today the Russian MFA joked about how our SecState sounds like he's working for the Russian MFA when talking about Libya & regional issues. His message of "no outside interference" is de facto "let Russia have it, whatever, I want to go play Risk in Venezuela"
Why?

Because while POTUS clown lawyers where tanking their standup in front of the Senate, surprised that the Senate isn't the Star Wars bar scene of the House committees, POTUS was tanking his low-energy, disinterested speech to Davos, which was 90% lies and bluster.
Because, to be clear, outside of the borders of America, the magic maga delusion dust doesn't work, and everyone else just looks at him, with the ridiculous hair and entourage, and listens to the lies, and is like, ok, let's make a deal with China before it's too late.
The national security and moral leadership cases for impeaching the president -- who has weakened our alliances, left us more isolated and forced to rely on illiberal friends of POTUS -- is THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE. Because it leaves us less safe, makes our power matter far less.
