Okey dokey, Twitter this morning.

“What the process is” is a white man term meaning –  Wait to see what Mitch says.

Mitt, Honey, a subpoena is a piece of paper issued by the court or the congress or anybody who passed the bar that says, to bring your butt to court.  It was laid out in the Magna Damn Carta.  That’s the process. If you want to hear from a witness and he says he will only testify if under subpoena, you type up a piece of paper saying consider yourself subpoenaed and get somebody to deliver it to him.

There ya go. Go chew on that process and see if you can come up with something better.

The Associated Press has an interesting take on what the tit for tat (which is just quid pro quo that Trump can understand) from Iran might be.

“U.S. officials are also aware that Iran could try to strike a high-level American leader in a ‘tit-for-tat’ move, potentially a military commander.”

Okay, so I’m wondering which military commander they can take in a fair exchange.

Of course, Sean Hannity comes to mind first.  Let’s face it, he’s running the damn country.

I also think Stephen Miller would be fair.  Except for that shaved head he could be an exact match.

I’d be willing to offer up Mike Pompeo.  But who wouldn’t?

Or maybe Lindsey Graham, who spent six heroic tormented years in the Air Force JAG Corp, although I don’t think he saw any tort combat.

Got any other suggestions?

John Bolton popped up outta nowhere, literally nowhere, to say that he would be willing to testify at Trump’s impeachment hearing in the senate.

Okay.

Which way?

Is he gonna tell the truth about saying that he was not part of “whatever drug deal Sondland and Mulvaney are cooking up”? Or, is he gonna flip like Lindsey Graham and swear on Baby Jesus’ little tootsies that Trump is God’s ambassador on planet earth?

I mean, Bolton is a chickenhawk with a wingspan of aircraft carrier.

Trever Noah said of Bolton —

“Here’s the best example of how war-horny John Bolton is: He’s still defending the one war that everyone else agrees was a terrible idea,” Noah said. Sure, invading Iraq “destabilized the Middle East and brought us ISIS, but other than that, nailed it.”

Trump is the closest he’ll ever get to creating another Bush so ya think he’s gonna bite the hand that fills his bottle and burps him?

I wouldn’t gamble on it.

Madam Speaker, the Honorable Nancy Pelosi, has announced that this crapola is damn well over.

Trump has tripled down on blowing up cultural spots in Iran if they retaliate for killing their general.  Not only will he do it, but he will laugh gleefully watching them burn.

Pelosi is doing what she can to stop this stuff.

The resolution, Pelosi writes, “reasserts Congress’s long-established oversight responsibilities by mandating that if no further Congressional action is taken, the Administration’s military hostilities with regard to Iran cease within 30 days.”

Look, I realize that Trump can do lotsa damage in 30 days, but at the very least this will limit the amount of time that John Bolton and Stephen Miller can prance around with a bulge in their pants.

After threatening bombs and sanctions and golf courses and whatnot, Trump said something so weird that even I said duh.

“If there’s any hostility, that they do anything we think is inappropriate, we are going to put sanctions on Iraq, very big sanctions on Iraq,” Mr. Trump added.

In making his warning, the president was threatening sanctions on a country for forcing out American troops whom he himself had pledged to bring home during his 2016 presidential campaign.

Dude, they are just trying to help you keep your campaign promises.  I mean, no Obamacare gone, no wall, you ought to have at least one you can claim to have kept.

One more thing.  This idea that he told Russia what he was going to do but not congress because “he wanted to keep it a secret,” is not how America works.

Look who is ten pounds of gall in a five pound sack!

Yeah, and soon he will be telling us that we will be welcomed with open arms and that the war will pay for itself and that we should go shopping.

Damn Republican wars.
