What, bad news? Say it's not so-

Which Ambassabor to the Ukraine? Obama’s?

So many Ambassadors running around, they replicate faster than a pandemic flu virus.

This testimony / Ambassador to Ukraine combo?

“The rallies are the driving force behind this movement.” Donald Trump bets they are still a winning campaign strategy, and a way to duck impeachment.

This is such a guilty, retro pleasure but ... David Plouffe, who is about 5 ft 3 inches tall describes in great detail why it is impossible (impossible not improbable not unlikely), impossible for Trump to win in 2016.

The Phil Hartman delivery is what slayed me.

I’m starting to think the IG “Report” has been ghostwritten by Godot. Have to admit though, it’s a great false start imprimatur. Makes a lot of other people hurry, hurry, hurry.

[Jane]

From the last thread: congrats Matt, that is very cool!

Wasn’t this ambassador gone, or at least absent during the meeting?

[henry]

The thread from above is still going.

@Shem_Infinite

I'm actually kind of shocked how much of Bill Taylor's testimony here actually helps Trump. Ukraine had no clue why the aid was being withheld, Taylor had no direct knowledge of most of these conversations, and repeatedly says he was told there was no quid pro quo at all.

[Jim Eagle]

CH,

Stealing your thunder here:

“ 396 >>If he thinks he can get away with convicting, then he will. The Senate GOP will be MORE than happy to cooperate, if given the go-ahead. I think that is why he's said he'd drag a Senate trial out for a long time - not because it harms Democrats, but because it provides time to grind down the President's popularity enough to potentially make conviction look like a survivable proposition.

According to guys like Jordan, Biggs, Meadows and others nearly every single witness Schiff has called so far has punched enormous holes in Schiff's fantasy. In fact, best I can tell Taylor is the first one who hasn't.

Which of course is why Schiff is doing all this behind closed doors. If the Trump is impeached which is by no means a sure thing the Senate will done in public with Trump having lawyers with subpoena powers and they will be able to cross examine. All in public.

I'm not seeing that being real damaging to Trump.“

Many happy returns of the day, Narciso!

Mom2two, what a wonderful video of those eager pollinators, and a clear endorsement of God's beautiful plan for all creation. Really, how people can not see it is a wonder of deep blinders.

Well thats awkward.

[matt - deplore me if you must]

All the best narciso!

LA is the epicenter because we had a huge mental health problem because of the closure of the mental hospitals in the most populous state in the Union and then compounded it with an out of control homeless crisis. Even NYC officials and docs recognize this. 57,000+ homeless. That's a small city in itself.

If King Large Cojones Abdullah says the U.S. move in Syria is a good one it probably is.

[Narciso]

Is the source code for the malware russian or ukrainian, and is it unique to fsb,

I just got home and starting watching the WS game on Hulu. The live stream keeps freezing up on me and I eventually got an error message. Anyone else watching the game on Hulu having technical problems?

[GUS]

So, I will assume by now, that ALL OF US HERE, have read or heard the TRANSCRIPT of "THE PHONE CALL" to the UKRAINE PRESIDENT.

There is nothing to investigate. All of it is clownish nonsense.

DISCUSS.

A statement from WHITE HOUSE after Trump admin pick Bill Taylor testified all day: “President Trump has done nothing wrong — this is a coordinated smear campaign from far-left lawmakers and radical unelected bureaucrats waging war on the Constitution. There was no quid pro quo."

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

--We’re now able to confirm that Sen Pierre Delecto’s perfect hair is brushed daily by Rep Katie Hill.--

That is hilarious.

[Narciso]

Taylor met with shiff in ukraine, he didmt have the notes then, that was nearly a month after the call.

[Narciso]

He didnt have access to the transcript, who knew anything?

[Threadkiller]

My first guess is that the Tom Selleck story is bogus. "NYC"post? .pro?

Sounds fake

[MissMarple2]

Threadkiller,

Maybe. Selleck IS a Republican. However, people also make fake threads and post stuff which isn't verifiable and of which this could be one.

I am not getting into an argument over whether this is true or not. All that does us waste peoples' time.

Where's rich? Natitude, bitches!

Selleck's been an outspoken MAGA guy.

[Melinda]

He has supported him.

Selleck wouldn’t have used the F word.
Not his style.
Agree with Spakovsky.
We need our IG report out and Barr to announce whether McCabe will be indicted.
Some sort of counter information to take over the news cycle.
This is death by a thousand cuts.
Sending letters is not enough.
More action is needed.

[sbwaters]

Gus: ALL OF US HERE, have read or heard the TRANSCRIPT of "THE PHONE CALL" to the UKRAINE PRESIDENT. There is nothing to investigate.

I am on my vacation with family as @CBS’s Trump slam was broadcast today. They weren't content to misrepresent Ambassador Taylor, but also to misrepresent the political lynching as racist,comparing it to the dredged up the misrepresentation of the four congress critters told to go home and the misrepresentation of Charlottesville.

There was no point to attempt to correct them. It has been taken to their hearts as gospel.

It is going to take a concerted effort of exposure to reveal the whole series of hoaxes to get them to understand.

Dear DJT, Please. Start. Now.

[D]

President Ttump , some posters here say you have a deep plan.
My question: Where is it and what is it?

[D]

Ken Starr says it should be an open process.
Why are these guys testifying?
Why are so many of them against President Trump?

[Threadkiller]

Did I question whether Selleck supports Trump?

No.

Did I question whether or not it is a bullshit link?

Yes

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

Lil Katie Hill is quite a piece o' work.
Redstate published the texts or emails she sent the chick in the "throuple" [is that a new one on anyone else, or just me?] explaining why she was ditching the both of them. She just wanted to be alone to do her important work effin up others people lives.
Not one word about an abusive husband.

She shtups a 20somethin campaign staffer but she would certainly never shtup a congressional staffer.
Lyin little bisexual skank.

SBW, it's nearly EVERY MEDIA OUTLET. They are merely proving their lunacy not to mention dishonesty. This is a PERMANENT STAIN on our NATION. This SHIT, is SERIOUS. The FULL COMMIE LEFT, as I've said for years, has PAINTED ITSELF INTO A CORNER.

No escape. I pray there is not VIOLENCE coming, but I'm pretty sure there is.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

OK, Snopes, I know, but those words seem to be Jon Voight's, not Tom Sellecks's.

As hans gruber might have put it 'if you steal 5.5 million people dont react, but if you steal 5.5 billion, they will be looking for you.'

[MissMarple2]

GUS,

I am thankful that we couldn't afford cable. Otherwise, I would be in the slough of despair.

I left You Tube on a couple of nights ago, and the auto-play brought up an MSNBC show which was super-negative. I woke up and thought something dreadful had happened, until I figured out the score.

Mitch Rapp needs to go in and blow up their equipment.

[Jim Eagle]

If Trump has a "deep" plan, MR, why would he reveal it?

Back home after a long drive from MCO. 1.4 hours on 417 to I-4 to I-95 then the 3 mile parkway. A ton of mail (forgot to ask the neighbor to check for me:). No dogs. Those I get tomorrow.

As I have said before, he has the patience of an oyster. He is not ruffled, in fact he is ruffling others. He is confident, if not he would be flubbing his rallies. He is in control of his faculties unlike Slo Joe Bidet. He is much more aligned with the majority of American values unlike the current and future Dem candidates.

I see nothing in his body language, talking points, twitts etc. that indicate he is worried. In fact, I see the opposite. I see a guy from Queen's inviting the other guys to have a little tete-a-tete.

I may go to bed now. So, if I am absent, slaap lekker en tot morgen.

[GUS]

I'm watching the Series, and I'm listening to Mark Levin.
I love baseball. I love hot dogs, apple pie, and America.

What BLOWS MY FUCKING MIND, is that this band of SICK FREAKS on the LEFT, is OBVIOUS. No clear thinking HUMAN from my days of yore, would not NOTICE what is going on. It's OBVIOUS. The idea that we have a real "PRESS" or "MEDIA", in this nation is simply SCARY

[MissMarple2]

Jack ,

I agree with you. I am a Trump watcher, as it is my entertainment. I see no nervousness or panic, unlike what I see on Nancy Pelosi or Mitt Romney.

Instead, I see jovial comments, self-confidence, and a love of country.

I am sticking with him.

[Jim Eagle]

GUS,

Did I ever tell you I saw Warren Spahn pitch against the Red's and Joe Nuxhall. Joe had 4 SO's in one inning since Smokey Burgess dropped the 3rd SO and the guy reached first. What a wonderful pitcher Spahn was. I keep forgetting his other mate was it Lou Burdette? I think so.

BTW, the 1957 Braves alone had 4 future HOF'mers: Red Schoendist, Warren Spahn, Eddie Mathrews and of course, the great Hank Aaron. A force to reckon with. Also, a lot of the great Reds teams came from the Braves like Gus Bell and Ed Bailey.

Those were the days when i loved baseball, now it just seems a lttle to juiced up.

[Melinda]

TK-

Totally agree the site looks like lightly ladled hog manure.

Just mentioning that he’s been a fan.

[GUS]

Jack, what will bring the NEW GREEN CIVIL WAR, will not be POTUS DJT and his confidence, nor his honesty, nor his successes. It will be the TREASON of the LEFT, that is as plain as the nose on your face. The reduction of our SOCIETY to lawless, endless FULL COMMIE LEFTIST screeeeching, all being amplified and egged on, by a COMPLETE MEDIA abdication of their duty to the nation.
The SICKNESS of the LEFT, is aimed at YOU and ME.
But, moreso, it is AIMED at FREDERICK and MICKEY.

[Captain Hate]

Lou Burdette was indeed the other Braves stud pitcher; I think he was a righthander and Spahn a southpaw.

[Narciso]

New yawk city post, shirley.

[GUS]

So COOOOOL JACK. I went to High School less than half mile from SPAHN'S home in WAUWATOSA WISCONSIN.
The wooden cursive S is still on the house on Martha Washington St.

Did YOU know, that Spahn had 363 wins, and 363 hits in his career???

I have recieved 2 autographed Spahn baseballs as gifts. One from the 80's and one from near the time of his death in 03. Very interesting to see the old and new autographs next to each other.

[Jim Eagle]

GUS,

I am a righty but was a catcher. I loved watching Spahn and his high leg kick. I don't think there were many left handed batters who got hits or HR's off of him unless he screwed up.

CH,

Yes. Lou Burdette was a righty.

/still up. a little hyper from all the travel.

[GUS]

Though it was WAY WAY before my birth. The BRAVES came to Milwaukee in 53, from Boston as any MLB fan should know. They went to and won the Series in 57, against the Yankees, and the rematch the following year was won by the Yanks. THEY ARE STILL LEGENDARY HERE.
The left after 1965, pretty much for the same reasons they came HERE. Greener pastures.
They drew EXTREMELY WELL here in Milwaukee, but ticket sales were not the only consideration to profits in those days.
The Milwaukee Brewers drew 3 MILLLLLLLLLLLLLION this year. I am originally an Orioles fan, and I admit to converting as a grew up. My earlist memories of returning to AMERICA from SCOTLAND, as a WEE BOY, was the ORIOLES winning the Series in 66. Jim Palmer shut out the DODGERS in game 2. I was 5 years old, back home in the U.S. and MARYLAND, and I remember it. It INFECTED ME.
Much much much later, my best pal, also a baseball junkie, found and bought me a JIM PALMER game used ORANGE, Orioles jersey. Mr Palmer signed it in my presence, and it hangs right next to a Robin Yount gamer.

[GUS]

Hello Clarice!!!! I'm sorry, you must be MISTAKEN,...Warren Spahn never lived in Hawaii. He was an OKIE!!! I think he had high cheek bones!!!

Seriously Clarice, I know where you grew up and, Spahn's house was not far. He was ROUGHLY....6Oth and Vliet.
