I can't post screencaps because I'm at an Ikea but I am listening on my earbuds

I suspect I'm the only person listening to the impeachment hearings while shopping for cheap Swedish crap, but maybe I'll find a buddy!

I can't decide how much of the logical fallacies these guys believe. Like, are they just using this as a defense bc they know their chud constituents will hook on, or do they actually thing this is a legitimate defense? 'The words changed!' is some YouTube comment-level debate.

I hate hearing "quid pro quo" now, especially since most of the fucks who keep repeating it don't know what it means. Extortion and bribery paint the picture much better.

Quid pro quo is just something Q taunted Jean-Luc about on the Star Treks

Agreed that it needs more official/damning words or it's too abstract for folks

whose constituents do you think are leaving those youtube comments

Oh I'm aware of both of these. Logical fallacies work very well with most people.

I just wonder how much these reps believe it vs they have nothing else in their arsenal. I'm not sure which is worse...

My mom called and I missed it. What did Jordan say that got him smacked down?

Jordan was trying to feed a narrative of events to the Lt. Col that made it appear he chose to alert his superiors randomly or in a biased manner, attempting to get him to agree for a sound byte, but the Lt Col smacked down that attempt and didn't rise to the bait.

Yeah if we're lucky the same social apparatus which glosses over Trump's malfeasances will make room for Sondland's 'forgetfulness'

I don't necessarily think that's a good thing as a cultural sign tho, just something that could work in our favor here and now
