More Testimony Released
They released Sondland and Volker today.
US Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland said the pursuit of President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani to persuade Ukraine to open an investigation into Trump’s political rivals “kept getting more insidious” as time went on, and he suggested Giuliani’s efforts might have been illegal, according to an excerpt of his closed-door deposition transcript.
More to come …
Comparing information to the acre feet of an avalanche, maybe we possibly can measure what is required to push Moscow Mitch and other Senate Republicons off the dime. Figure that high estimate of IQ4.5 supporters who are registered voters and who will never hear the truth, that’s divided among 50 states. Some states more plagued than others, it’s up to the ‘Con Senators in each state to roll the dice as to how many of the other ~77% of registered voters reside in their state. Math is not looking good for Moscow Mitch and his pussy posse of Donnie fluffers.

Is Trump Attending LSU-Alabama Game Because He’s “Desperately Searching for a Sporting Event Where His Ass Won’t Get Booed”?
Edit: Yes, this is the actual header for the article:
“Oh god, he’s just going to keep going to sports events until they don’t boo him, isn’t he?”
President Donald Trump reportedly plans to attend a high-profile college football game in the deep red state of Alabama Saturday, a decision that critics are speculating is evidence that the White House is trying to find a public sporting event where the president won’t be booed by the crowd.
Saturday’s game, a match-up between No. 1 ranked University of Alabama and No. 2 ranked Louisiana State University, is the president’s third attempt in as many weeks to bask in the cheers of thousands of sports fans.
“World Series was in D.C. so he felt like going, then was startled to get booed,” tweeted Intercept editor Ryan Grim. “So he went to a UFC fight to prove some people don’t hate him.
That turned out to be untrue, so now he’s still hunting.”
Grim called the president’s decision to attend the game in that context “genuinely sad.”
genuinely craven, vile, vomitus; informal projectile puke, spew.

2I think it was interesting that he said I’m not a lawyer but it seemed wrong. These folks do know right from wrong, they choose wrong for personal benefit which is a crime!
3megasoid @2 – I hear there is a high school game in Citrus County, Florida that Dump can attend.
4OT: Let the Rethug spin begin–
But some important non-fake good news:
The Democrats are cleaning up in many of today’s elections [literally and figuratively].
The Kentucky Rump-clone Governor got beat by the Democrat Andy Beshear; and in Virginia, the Dems have taken control of both the Senate and House [of Burgesses, iirc].
Any of y’all watching PBS’ Frontline program “In the Age of AI” tonight? If not, catch a rerun soon. Scaryscary stuff, people are becoming obsolete [blue and white collar workers]. ‘Artificial Intelligence’, automation, hardware/software, is taking over, superseding people in many sectors of economies everywhere. Keep in mind that the Bush-Cheney cabal turned our futures over to the Chinese, by hamstringing us in useless, incredibly expensive wars and allowing the Chinese to surpass us in most tech, R&D, and economic factors [those things cost money]. Now Rump is finishing us off.
I’ve been predicting this tech stuff for almost 50 years, since my starting in a very hi-tech field and realizing even then what potentials it had to radically change things.
5OK, I’me giving away my age when I reveal that 50 some years ago when I was in undergrad school, all of my polite sci and many other professors PROMISED that someday there would be a scum president freely elected by a margin from the electorate who believed they looked just like him and vice versa. It was so damn hard to hear that then. We were on the verge of a Kennedy presidency. Heck, about the same time even my father predicted Dolt 45 and simply told me to never bring home anyone who was a festering ball of ego maggots or he would blithely shoot him as a favor to the world- namely himself. He would never tolerate a son in law like Trump.
