📖 🧨 Bolton’s Knives Out for Giuliani & Trump >> Trump Tied Ukraine Aid to Bogus Investigations, Rudy wanted to get rid of Yovanovitch for his own clients, Bolton says in explosive new book. 🍿 nytimes.com/2020/01/26/us/…
Stunning deception & bad faith from Trump's lawyers, arguing before the Chief Justice, the Senate & the public to exclude witnesses, knowing—for weeks—that Bolton testimony crushes Trump defense. They're aiding obstruction & asking Senators to do the same! Bolton must testify now
Trump told Bolton he wanted to freeze aid til Ukraine investigated Biden & Crowdstrike—both bogus. Bolton is a direct fact witness to the QPQ. AND proves corruption & burden sharing were pretexts. WH had Bolton manuscript, so WH lawyers knowingly lied to Senate. #ImpeachmentTrial
Shocker: WH made COPIES of #Bolton book detailing Trump's abuses. Given his defense team pretended today Bolton didn't exist, it's likely bad. And McConnell knows enough to cover it up. If they had any honor, they'd make Trump resign. #ImpeachmentTrial #DefendOurDemocracy #Maddow

BREAKING: Lamar Alexander won't vote to hear witnesses or see documents in the Senate #ImpeachmentTrial, #Maddow reports.

@LamarAlexander's hero was Howard Baker. You sir, sadly, are no Howard Baker.
@LamarAlexander 🚨Republican @SenAlexander uses Dershowitz's 👑argument to justify no witnesses, acknowledging Trump did it all: "There is no need for more evidence to prove something that has already been proven and that does not meet the US Constitution’s high bar for an impeachable offense."
@LamarAlexander @SenAlexander There it is >> Republican Lamar Alexander is OK with a sham impeachment trial w/o witnesses b/c he prefers a lawless criminal in the White House to a Democrat. And he's a "swing" Republican! Shame on him and the rest of these fools lucky enough never to have lived under dictators

OY! Dershowitz literally starts davening (rocking in prayer) as he declares everyone who doesn't hold his fringe view is a biased political hack. And cowardly Republicans are going to cite this unhinged lunatic as the "scholarly" argument to protect Trump. #ImpeachmentTrial
Y'day Dershowitz was literally yucking it up with Trump—patting Pompeo's back—at the WH! Today, he declares only he can be trusted b/c others are biased!😜

Toobin adds: Dersh argues "You can tell I'm right b/c no one has agreed with me in the last 150 years."😂#ImpeachmentTrial
ICYM Dershowitz's insanely authoritarian & Orwellian gaslighting, arguing that Trump's cheating to benefit his re-election—undermining US national security in Ukraine & Russia in the process—is actually IN the national interest… b/c Trump thinks he's great. #ImpeachmentTrial

Yikes! I'm beginning to think the people around Trump are ok w/ his mobster character & threats b/c they're pretty thuggish themselves.

Case in point: Mike Pompeo. If I were @NPRKelly, I'd feel threatened by his intimidating outburst about Ukraine, in a private State Dept room.
@NPRKelly 🚨US Secy of State, folks: "Pompeo shouted his displeasure at being questioned about Ukraine. He used repeated expletives, according to Kelly, and asked,

'Do you think Americans care about Ukraine?'

He then said, 'People will hear about this.'" npr.org/2020/01/24/799… #Maddow
@NPRKelly Everyone is Trump. Pompeo flips his indecency w/ a reporter onto her—adding personal & professional smears. He tries discrediting @NPRKelly report by claiming she's part of an "unhinged" conspiratorial "media agenda." And never actually denies his outrageous remark about Ukraine.

When that Bolton manuscript comes out... and it DOES NOT SAY what the anonymous ghosty leaker/s claim it did, imagine the FUNthat will ensue? 🤔😏😎
Democrats have been lured into PINNING THEIR HOPES on new evidence coming from...[checks card] an anonymous leak about a draft manuscript found in Fake News Media where none of the "reporters" can quote a single sentence from the manuscript.

Ponder that for just minute.
People keep **telling me** they don't let fake news affect them.

But literally EVERYBODY I see on Twitter thinks they know what Bolton's manuscript says because of....an anonymous leak.

And the leaker does not supply the reporter with a single actual quote from the book.

Trump Tied Ukraine Aid to Inquiries He Sought, Bolton Book Says

nyti.ms/2GrpMsI
"Trump told his national security adviser in August that he wanted to continue freezing $391 million in security assistance to Ukraine until officials there helped with investigations into Democrats including the Bidens."
"He (Bolton), Mr. Pompeo and Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper had collectively pressed the president about releasing the aid nearly a dozen times in the preceding weeks.

Mr. Trump had effectively rebuffed them, airing his longstanding grievances about Ukraine....

NEW: Sondland will describe quid pro quo - say WH meeting with Zelenksy conditioned on political probes and “everybody was in the loop” (Mulvaney, Pompeo) to satisfy Trump. Will say he told Pence of “concerns” aid was “tied to the issue of investigations” cnn.com/2019/11/20/pol…
Emails show Sondland talking with Pompeo, Mulvaney about Trump’s demands. Sondland also says he “came to believe that the resumption of security aid would not occur until there was a public statement from Ukraine committing to the investigations of the 2016 elections and Burisma”
Schiff warns Trump that in an article of impeachment against Nixon was obstruction of Congress, bashing State and the WH for not turning documents over to the committee: “They do so at their own peril.”

Et si on faisait 1 synthèse de la situation de #Trump après 1 semaine d'enquête en #impeachment et de révélations folles. Dernière en date, selon le @nytimes: 1 2nd agent du renseignement confirme sur l'#Ukraine et pourrait lui aussi lancer 1 alerte. nytimes.com/2019/10/04/us/…
@nytimes 2) La 1ère chose à dire est que #Trump, pour la 1ère fois peut-être dans sa carrière politique, n'est pas parvenu à "arrêter le saignement" (comme on dit aux #EtatsUnis) provoqué par le lancement d'alerte sur l'#Ukraine puis l'ouverture des vannes de l'enquête en #impeachment...
@nytimes 3)… il y a depuis 10 jours une cascade ininterrompue de faits révélés par le début de l'enquête en #impeachment de la Chambre et des infos de la presse qui accablent #Trump au point d'avoir fait bouger l'opinion. Substantiellement.
