It's so fecking strange. Classic Trump though. Get caught out as either a liar or an idiot and immediately double down when challenged. A whole new political paradigm but it didn't stop him getting elected.

He passed out mid tweet, it's like the most obvious thing in the world.
Its Wednesday - has anyone seen Mike Pence lately ?
Pretty good interview with Hillary
Campaigning in Georgia.
Pence 2020
Pence 2018
Its actually a bit odd how Pence's public profile has diminished in recent weeks. Seems like he may be a bit put off by all the drama - or else Drumpf has consciously put him on ice.
lulz
Or he doesn't want to be associated with the impending doom. Who knows.
Yep - he has to walk the tightrope of being supportive to Trump whilst simultaneously not getting smeared with his negative press.

Seems like the House IC has pulled its finger out of its arse since the special prosecutor was hired.
If I had to guess why it's one of two reasons:
1. They realise how serious the situation is and don't want to be branded incompetent or guilty of being part of the cover up if Mueller races ahead with the investigation and gets shit done.
2. They're trying to take control of the narrative and ask only the questions they want the answers to. If this is the case it's imperative that Schiff uses his time to ask the difficult questions.
Drumpf plotting with dirty Roger Stone again....
Him and Bernie are way too old. They both turn 80 in their first term, that's too old to deal with the stresses of the presidency, unless they plan on not doing the work like Trump.

Yeah the Dems need someone who isn't in their 70s.
Late 60s/Early 70s is probably fine if it's someone who took care of their body. But you don't want an 80 year old president.
they could use a golf cart like "no stamina!" Trump.
House Intel committee have also issued subpoenas to Susan Rice, John Brennan, and Samantha Power in relation to the unmasking of US citizens.
Sounds like the GOP have their obfuscation strategy ready to go.
Pence June 2017
Just something that will keep their supporters happy and to talk about.
The unmasking subpoenas is what they're focusing on and getting excited with how its going to bring down Obama and his team.
Ridiculous that he keeps getting away with it.
It reminds me of the cartoon of the guy in a room that's burning down and he says, 'I think the real problem here is the smoke detectors.' (Or something similar...).
This is the kind of stuff that's easier to swallow if you believe in an afterlife and eternal damnation. I don't; I just feel impotent anger.
i love Joe Biden but too old to run. 77 when next election comes round? How to you plan to win and serve 2 terms at 77? Same with Bernie!
Fascinating to see the changing dynamics between nations in all this.
Had a bad infection so been sick at home last 2 days.
House of Cards Season 5 came out yesterday. 2 more episodes to go.
People said 'how will they write House of Cards when Trump misdemeanours are actually real'.
Many thought it impossible to top clinton/Trump election, tRump's prior crimes and his current handling of white house. So how do 'house of cards' invent stuff that's crazier than that
I love very very smart people. Especially When they become storytellers and script writers and have a brief like this. Add in some of the best acting you've ever seen and you'll see the best TV series ever made.

It's really weird seeing Germany described as the leader of the free world and China as the leader on tackling climate change.
Yep, exactly why Raoul's talk of Trump pivoting was epic nonsense and pure hope. Trump is still seething from Obama's roasting in 2011, probably has wet dreams over it. So he's doing what he can to destroy Obama's legacy and he has a group of sycophants willing and ready to aid in the destruction of the nation.
Come on langster, it's like that "they're not true Christian" lark, ya know?
"Oh they vote Republican like me but they're not real Republicans. They're rednecks!"
He was on CNN or MSNBC lat night, can't remember which, but he was recanting a discussion with Sessions after he had learned of his prior SNL skits, specifically Stuart Smalley. Franken explained how Sessions didn't seem to understand humor and sarcasm nor did he understand the meaning behind Smalley's pysche.
He treats almost anything related to policy as a fecking cliffhanger for the next week's episode. He's the modern age PT Barnum.
Yeah I thought the same earlier while flying over the washingtonpost and nytimes headlines. One says "World Awaits Trump Decision on U.S. Future in Paris Accord". I don't think that's true anymore, the world expects something "very bad" either way. If he was in anyway inclined to help the effort of saving the planet he wouldn't have installed Pruitt. The US sadly will be hostage to the Trump show for the foreseeable future, but the rest of the world will need to learn to ignore it (unless it escalates).
