Meridian posted:Yeah, does he have any reason not to drop bombs tomorrow? His only real motivation would be to keep his testimony as unimpeachable facts that can't be characterized as partisan or vindictiveness over getting fired because those would undercut the credibility of his allegations and give openings to ignore them.

My Twitter Account posted:It's a little depressing that a full third believe that the news media are making up stories to make the president look bad. when the news they see elsewhere is obviously fake (see previous page, us weekly) it's not a stretch to think all news media is made up. especially when you are too lazy or unable to process complex thought and the fake news is bashing your guy its all quite depressing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My Shitter Account posted:It's a little depressing that a full third believe that the news media are making up stories to make the president look bad. That's true. But it does seem to be roughly consistent with the number of diehard Trump supporters who probably would believe everything that came out of the "god emperor's" mouth.

It's fun when senators confuse words like "confidential" and "classified"  Sounds to me like Coats and Rogers have things to say, just not in public. Where would they talk about this kinda stuff?

Tatsuta Age posted:So was the "we're throwing this house bill away and starting from scratch" just nonsense? No, they have to use the house bill no matter what they do. Even if the plan is to gut the entire thing and replace it with an entirely new bill, they must bring the original House bill up for consideration and then amend it.

Party Plane Jones posted:https://twitter.com/williamjordann/status/872443376901160960 Only 2/3rds of Republicans believe he thinks the news is actually untrue. The annoying part is that only 25% of people not registered to vote believe Trump. If those people bothered to vote against the person they think is discrediting the media because he doesn't like it, Democrats would win in an enormous landslide.

No hearings. No debate. Just ram it home. A complete overhaul of 1/5 of the US economy. If our political system worked they would lose 20 Senate and 130 House seats in 2018.

Whoa, does that mean the actual text of the House-passed bill, or is this part of the procedure to start considering the bill and then re-draft it themselves?
