I mean, we all have fantasies. It's okay to fantasize. Really, so what if Trump fantasized about shooting illegal immigrants in the legs to slow them down? I mean, 18 months ago, who here didn't fantasize about the SecDef Mattis strolling into the oval office, only to use the Churchill bust to break Trump's tiny hands one bone at a time - all to slow him from getting us into a nuclear war with "Rocketman" and North Korea via Twitter.
So who are we to judge?!?
So this is super interesting...
State Dept inspector general requests 'urgent' Ukraine briefing on Capitol Hillhttps://abcnews.go.com/Politics/stat...ry?id=65991911he State Department’s inspector general is expected to give an "urgent" briefing to staffers from several House and Senate committees on Wednesday afternoon about documents obtained from the department’s Office of the Legal Adviser related to the State Department and Ukraine, sources familiar with the planned briefing told ABC News.
Details of the briefing, requested by Steve Linick, the inspector general at State, remain unknown. Linick is expected to meet with congressional staff in a secure location on Capitol Hill.
The unusual nature and timing of the briefing – during a congressional recess – suggests it may be connected to a recent intelligence community whistleblower allegation which describes, in part, the State Department’s role in coordinating interactions between Rudy Giuliani, the president’s personal attorney, and Ukrainian officials.
The inspector general is the department's internal investigator and watchdog, and the office generally operates independently of the department's political leadership.
The State Department has faced criticism in recent weeks for connecting Giuliani to multiple Ukrainian officials about re-opening an investigation into for Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.
The State Department's press office and the State Department's inspector general's office did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The committees expected to be part of the briefing did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Note this is an urgent briefing... That does not happen, especially during a recess. I'm betting more people in the State Department want to come forward in light of Pompeo's letter earlier today.
And just so it's clear - He's not quoting anyone this time. These are his actual words.
He's reacting to the Ukraine emergency briefing thing.
“But this isn’t the end. I promise you, this is not the end, and we have to regroup and we have to continue to fight and continue to work day in and day out to create the better society for our children, for this world, for this country, that we know is possible.” ~~Jon Stewart
He needs to be removed from office right now. Seriously. This is bordering on just straight up terrorism and calls for violence.
People are going to fucking die if he keeps this up. People have already fucking died because of his lunacy and we're just letting him sit in the presidency.
Not sure I get that vibe. We have heard literally nothing from the State Dept IG during all of this. If they had news that was relevant, they'd have passed it along by now. And while the IG is supposed to be neutral, Pompeo has been circling the wagons more than most.
I'm not sure what he'd even have, anyhow. Pompeo might have been involved in some of these communications, sure, but he'd have kept it tightly under wraps. The State Department fucking hates Pompeo, he knows it, and there's no reason he'd share unethical or illegal info with anyone but his cronies. He's not Trump, he's neither stupid nor incompetent.

And North Korea is launching missiles again. Man, those peace talks are going so Trumpingly aren't they?

Trump's approval ratting has taken a dive enough that even Rasmussen couldn't keep him head above water.
Seems impeachment isn't a boon to his popularity after all.
Trump being a lying sack of vaguely human shaped shit is hardly new at this point.
Oh, and hey, Trumpers, where are you to defend this man who got unfairly fired? You guys were all over YouTube bitching about people being banned, surely you should be outraged by this, yes?
