these are the strongest words I've heard from Swalwell, which is saying something

quote:

“As a member of the committee, I would strongly urge us to bring in everybody associated with this deal and figure out what was offered, who it was offered to, and who knew about it,” Texas Rep. Joaquin Castro, a Democratic member of the committee, told BuzzFeed News on Thursday.

Castro also said he believed the plan could have violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. “If this was an attempt to speed up the project or secure the project and make sure it got done, it could amount to bribery for an official of a foreign government and anyone who was part of that could be in violation of this federal statute,” he said.

California Rep. Eric Swalwell, another Democrat on the committee, said he wants it to investigate the plan as well. “Now we’re in a position where we can look at third-party communication records, third-party travel logs, third-party bank records, to see what was really going on in the background, and to further probe what the candidate’s knowledge was of the prospective deal and Moscow and the offer by the Russians to help him,” he said.

“We’re way beyond bribery,” he added. “If a candidate for president is offering a foreign adversary a $50 million-gift while that adversary through his own backchannels is offering support of the campaign, that’s betrayal at the highest level; that’s conspiracy.

“Bribery would be the least of Donald Trump’s worries.”

It was! It was immediately after the raid and he was trying to figure out his options. (turns out he made the correct decision eventually, the decision was "i do not want to die in federal prison, i would rather roll on Trump")

and it was more stereotypical very wealthy Russian gangsters; not the guys in tracksuits, but the guys who own tens of thousands of guys in tracksuits

This was 3 days after the Comey letter, the NYT helped publicly clear Trump days before the election with something we know now to be completely false

Biden has sat immobile on the Iron Throne of America. He is the Master of Malarkey by the will of the gods, and master of a million votes by the might of his inexhaustible calamari.
Trump looking (even more) like poo poo is pretty damned telling.

Cohen looking like poo poo is...well, kinda understandable considering he's just given over 40 hours of interview testimony and has to keep passing a geiger counter over his drinks.

Cohen's drinks are fine. Russia don't care if he spills all of the beans about how they clowned the entire U.S. political system. What's happening right now is probably near the top of their list for ideal outcomes.
