Plenty of people I respect disagree with me on this—but yes, Republicans should compel more public testimony from existing and new impeachment witnesses. I make the case here: amgreatness.com/2020/01/30/yes…
Schiff and Rahm Emanuel already have hinted what’s next. More “bombshells,” more orchestrated attacks, more scorched earth. And why? Because there’s no consequences for their bad behavior. From Russian collusion to FISAgate and Kavanaugh travesty, lots of tough talk but...
no action. How many times have we been promised Rs will “get to the bottom” of each Dem-manufactured crisis? They never do. I agree with @nedryun —don’t waste this opportunity. Draw it out and call their bluff...or expect a repeat very soon. amgreatness.com/2020/01/30/yes…

This is nuts:

“That conservative pundits claim to be outraged at investigation of Trump campaign-or the smearing of Page-while being indifferent to Trump’s attempt to investigate Joe Biden-and the smearing of Hunter-marks a low in rhetorical sophistry.” nytimes.com/2019/12/18/opi…
“If conservatives are right to object to abuse of power by F.B.I. agents, shouldn’t they be far more alarmed at the abuse of investigatory and other powers for political ends by the president of the United States?”

Um, no, Bret Stephens. What a laughable false equivalence.
“Republicans like Devin Nunes were more right about the conduct of the investigation than many of its supporters, including me, care to admit, even if the investigation itself was warranted. And Carter Page is owed an apology by anyone, including me...”. LOL, whatever.

What’s very sad is looking at people working in DC right now. Lawmakers, journos, pundits, everyone. They look exhausted and spent and unwell. This sick crusade against Trump is physically grinding down the people who are supposed to be in charge. Sad and unsafe.
Even folks on *this* side. VDH just wrote about this risk with Trump. It’s obvious the president isn’t the only one whose physical and emotional health is at risk with this twisted campaign against Trump. amgreatness.com/2020/01/26/tar…
If you’re an enemy of America, this is a dream come true. The country’s most powerful leaders—on both sides—are emotionally and mentally depleted by the Left’s insane, nonstop rampage against the president.

The most important business of the U.S. Senate is to expose the destructive and criminal crusade against Donald Trump that began in the summer of 2016. Is this wishful thinking? Maybe. But if Senate Rs aren’t pushed to deliver the comeuppance Schiff... amgreatness.com/2020/01/30/yes…
and his cabal deserve. Trial Qs have touched on the FBI’s corrupt investigation into the Trump campaign, the paid foreign oppo research that was the Steele dossier, the condemnations by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. Why stop now? Use that relevant evidence to...
depose more witnesses then argue for their public testimony. When will Republicans ever again have a chance to keep reminding the public about Schiff’s treachery? His deception, his machinations, his attacks on Rep. Nunes and his staff? His lies to the media and to Congress?

#NEW I wrote about "electability" and the 2020 Democratic primary for the paper this week. We combined political science and polling data and found that a moderate Dem with strength among working-class whites has the best chance against Trump.

<THREAD>

economist.com/united-states/…
The 2020 election is likely to be close. Trump's approval rating & GDP growth suggest that he'll win about 49% of the two-party vote, per our modeling. He's clearly competitive, especially when Democrats need to win the popular vote by about ~2.5pts to win the electoral college.
So the "electability" of the candidates is a particular concern for Democrats.

So what do we know about who is more likely to win general elections?

At the moment, I am perched high above the House floor where a small group of spectators have already taken their seats to watch today's vote to formally transmit the articles of #impeachment from the House to the Senate.
I'll have the coverage for @CourthouseNews. Stay tuned!
@CourthouseNews Lawmakers are trickling into the chamber and I spy with my little eye, a group of newly-minted impeachment managers: Schiff, Jeffries, Demings....
@CourthouseNews Speaker Pelosi, donning a bright coral-hued ensemble, has entered the chamber & is seated next to Schiff. A friendly convo appears to be unfolding between the Speaker, Schiff, Demings and I believe that is Sylvia Garcia (her face is turned away, I can't get a great look at her)

🔥NEW #Impeachment witness Laura Cooper, Pentagon official, testified
1) Trump DIRECTED freeze on aid to Ukraine
2) Freeze was TIED to Trump's demand for Biden investigation
3) DOD told OMB (run my Mulvaney) #corruption was NOT an issue
4) She worried the freeze was ILLEGAL
Cooper's testimony is key b/c it shows "corruption" concern is a PRETEXT. She testified questions about corruption were answered in JUNE. Yet Trump continued to hold aid & push Ukraine to announce Biden + Ukraine-Not-Russia-Collusion disinformation, until Congress found out.
Mulvaney's claims & dates on "corruption concern" don't add up. He said aid was held until Trump was satisfied Ukraine was "doing better on corruption," which he said Zelensky satisfied on July call! So corruption not an issue by DOD in June & Z in July. But aid frozen til Sept🤨

Here's a theory I've been developing relevant to why House Democrats are reticent to air details of the investigation into #TrumpRussia.

🔹 Israeli interests allegedly conspired with the Trump campaign to undermine the U.S. government in 2016.

Israeli interests allegedly conspired with the Trump campaign to undermine the U.S. government in 2016.

🗨️ "The Trump transition team reached out to the Russian government in order to undermine the U.S. government because the Israeli government asked them to."

Israel has a history of interference with the U.S.government, and the government is reportedly sensitive about said shenanigans being exposed:

I talked to a few notable people who signed the letter saying Trump would have been charged w/ obstruction, but for his office, including...
A former close friend & colleague of Rudy Giuliani
A lawyer for David Pecker of AMI
A lawyer in Ken Starr's office
washingtonpost.com/world/national…
Jeffrey Harris, who was a friend to Rudy Giuliani & worked for him at Justice, on his reaction to Mueller report: "I would have clearly prosecuted that person or persons, and I can tell you, when Rudy was a prosecutor, he would’ve done the same thing." washingtonpost.com/world/national…
Elkan Abramowitz, who represents David Pecker, told me Barr's characterization of Mueller report was "so unbelievably misleading that I thought a clear statement of what the report said was in order.” Added his signing had nothing to do with Pecker. washingtonpost.com/world/national…
