SKULL.GIF posted:Matty is a contrarian fucklib who consistently tries to needle the left. He was tolerable up until about the time that the primary "began" earlier this year, now he mostly just tries to rile up the left while hiding behind a mask of "This is very reasonable! You're reacting way too much about what I'm saying!". He doesn't really contribute anything useful. He's been pretty much crap since he first come onto the scene as a blogger in the early 2000s and has worked his way up the ladder by being pretty much crap. He'll have his own show on CNN weekends one day.

mod sassinator posted:OK, NBC quote:But at a time when Democrats are simultaneously eager to influence public opinion in favor of ousting the president and quietly apprehensive that their hearings could stall or backfire, the first round felt more like the dress rehearsal for a serious one-act play than opening night for a hit Broadway musical. These people didn't get into journalism for journalism. It was their second choice for a major when they couldn't cut it as a theater major. They're BORED! ""Someone hit someone with a steel chair!!! Gosh, being a journalist at the front line for something that could be bigger than Watergate is just SOOOO BORING!!!"

pahuyuth posted:Are there any hearings today (Thursday)? No, Friday. Also, from that NBC article: quote:Taylor did create a stir when he told the committee one of his aides overheard an ambassador at the center of the story, Gordon Sondland, talking to the president about Ukraine on the phone. Afterward, Sondland told the staffer that Trump cared more about getting Ukraine to open investigations into Biden, a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, and his son Hunter than about any issues that mattered to the Ukrainians. Gosh, if only an NBC reporter could make that the headline instead of a footnote. If only...

twice burned ice posted:Republicans discuss a longer Senate impeachment trial to scramble Democratic primaries The republicans have already made up their mind without hearing the evidence. They have no integrity. They care only about maintaining their power in order to enact the will of their donors while they throw either racist, religious, or isolationist red meat to the trump base. I say trump base instead of republican base because all elected republicans know full well that this is the party of Trump now. They have worked really hard gaslighting, lying, and sensationalizing to get to this point. They have created this monster.

Acebuckeye13 posted:Yeah IP, here's the thing. I know about My Lai. I know a lot about Vietnam! It's a hosed-up subject, one that fundamentally broke the country and contributed greatly to the hellscape in which we currently live, and LBJ played a large role in the escalation of the war and the general conduct during it. You didn't say a single thing I didn't already know, while also ignoring my larger point that LBJ did more for the poor and disenfranchised than almost any other US legislator during the 20th century. Civil Rights Act of '57 and '64, the Voting Rights Act, Medicare and Medicaid, food stamps, massive investments in education and other programs... the bedrock of the welfare state on which we still rely was created by LBJ and his Great Society, and he accomplished it by being a masterful legislator and manipulator. Can you define who you mean by "the poor and disenfranchised"? Are you including those Americans who were poor and drafted to go die, get maimed physically and/or psychologically? Are you including any Vietnamese people at all?

Side note: "respectable interagency concensus" was negotiating deals that would keep Yanukovich in power. The Ukrainian people did not pay attention to that.
