China, if you’re listening…

By Mark | October 3, 2019

Remember how, back during the 2016 election, Donald Trump stood on a stage and encouraged the Russians to hack Hillary Clinton’s emails, saying, “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing“? Well, something really similar happened this morning on the south lawn of the White House, where […]

Holy shit. Today was too much… The whistleblower’s complaint goes public, and Trump responds by referencing the execution of traitors

By Mark | September 26, 2019

The above quote comes directly from the whistleblower’s complaint, which came out this morning, just as acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Joseph Maguire was getting ready to testify before the House Intelligence Committee. If you haven’t read it by now, or listened to it, you really should… Speaking of which, a number of cowardly […]

Citing a “betrayal of our national security”, Nancy Pelosi goes all-in on impeachment

By Mark | September 24, 2019

Things appear to be taking a decisive turn in Washington. With evidence mounting that Donald Trump had attempted to coerce the President of Ukraine into assisting with the swiftboating of Joe Biden, and news breaking that the intelligence community whistleblower who first brought the charges to the attention of the IGIC had reached out to […]

The time has come to call Pelosi’s office and demand impeachment

By Mark | September 23, 2019

I know this makes three posts in a row, which is unprecedented for me, but I’m not ready to move on from Trump’s admission yesterday that he sought to coerce the President of Ukraine into lending credibility to a roundly debunked right wing conspiracy theory involving former Vice President Joe Biden.

Fuck the Emmys. We’re in crisis.

By Mark | September 22, 2019

We somehow allowed the Russia investigation to be framed in such a way that about 50% of Americans, even when confronted by evidence of Donald Trump’s multiple instances of obstruction of justice, still seemed to think that he should not be impeached. The Republicans, to their credit, had successfully set the ground rules at the […]
