Ship coal to Ukraine, home of the Donbas and Kuzbas coal regions? That coal was a favor Ukraine did to curry favor with Trump, because he promised to bring back coal and find new markets.

I don’t know about y’all, but I will forever be grateful to Nancy Pelosi for urging us all to have patience.

The Mueller/Russia thing would have been a landmine if we’d tried to impeach then, true, but this Ukraine thing is like a political Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.

It’s gonna take down the whole damned administration. At the end, I am not sure any of these evil MFers is gonna be left standing.

PS
Dear Christian Hypocrite Pence…don’t go measuring for new Oval Office drapes yet and BTW, did you know that Trump is pro-abortion thru Trickledown-Pushing-Abortion for pregnant asylum seekers?

Rick Perry–and, by extension, 99% of TX legislators, and of TAMU “distinguished” alumni–are proof positive that you don’t have to be smart to be greedy and corrupt.

There may be a whole Trump admin DWTS season. Shot in federal prison, of course, a twist that is sure to boost ratings.

It’s like a sci-fi horror movie where the humans finally destroy the alien monster – and then discover that it was one of a thousand hatchlings.

If you don’t clear them all out, don’t bother clearing any.

Nancy said he would impeach himself. It’s beginning to look prescient.

She was on the Intelligence Committee for a long, long time. Perhaps she has good sources whispering in her ear, or perhaps good intuition, or perhaps she is just perceptive and figured it out from observation.

Whatever it was, she was so damned right.
