The ACB hearings are boring. There, I said it.
Okay, to be fair, Mazie Hirono is a lunatic for asking the sexual assault thing. But everyone seems to have really glossed over that one.
I think the Democrats realize how badly they fucked up in 2018. They could have flipped the Senate, but the Kavanaugh hearings cost them. I think they know that now.
I also think that means they know their lead going into November isn’t insurmountable. So they are going to play regular, boring partisan games, essentially losing this battle quietly so they can still try to win the war.

Hunter Biden introduced his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, to a top executive at a Ukrainian energy firm less than a year before the elder Biden pressured government officials in Ukraine into firing a prosecutor who was investigating the company, according to emails...
...obtained by The Post.

The never-before-revealed meeting is mentioned in a message of appreciation that Vadym Pozharskyi, an adviser to the board of Burisma, allegedly sent Hunter Biden on April 17, 2015, about a year after Hunter joined the Burisma board at a reported...
...salary of up to $50,000 a month.

“Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spent [sic] some time together. It’s realty [sic] an honor and pleasure,” the email reads.

Since I can’t actually tweet it out... Image
It would be really bad if y’all opened this Google search link and clicked on the @nypost’s Hunter Biden story. @Twitter would not be happy with you at all.. google.com/search?q=new+y…
Hey, @Twitter, why am I being told a link to the Senate Judiciary's website may be unsafe simply because it reposted the @nypost's Hunter Biden story? You think this is a great look?

Because sleep is overrated, I spent a lot of time thinking about this last night.
While Lemon and the gang are busy making fun of stereotypical Trump supporters, they ignore the people who don't fall into those stereotypes that voted for Trump in 2016.
Those people were tired of assholes like Lemon - elite, left-leaning scolds who constantly preach to them their ideologies and ignore life and culture in middle America.

Okay, folks. I have some Thoughts and Opinions this morning, and I’m going to share them.
You know what really pisses me off? When a non-traditional news outlet breaks a major story and the traditional media do one or more of the following:
1. Ignores the story due to partisan agenda.

2. Runs with the story based on the subject’s response to the story.

3. Refers to the story without linking to or giving proper credit to the original outlet/writer who broke it.

So, here is where I am on the BuzzFeed story. Bear with me a moment as I try to lay this out as best as I can.
BuzzFeed News drops a major story at 10:11 p.m. Thursday night. The story claims that there is evidence Trump told Cohen to lie to Congress. The story bases this claim on information given to them by two unnamed sources.
The story isn't about what Cohen is claiming. The sources are saying Cohen told Mueller this and it was backed up in Mueller's interviews with folks from the Trump Organization.

Allow me a moment to discuss Scott Pruitt for a few tweets.
Pruitt wasn’t a scalp to be collected by the media, as some on the right have suggested. The petty crap that filled headlines was indicative of a larger problem that was bound to come to light eventually.
Slowly, we saw things escalate. It started with inconsequential stuff, but it started becoming real problems. It kept getting worse.
