Ultimately though Indy lost the statue

He got the girl. That's what matters.

The only reason they would release this is they think it will overshadow the rest of the whistleblower's complaint, which is probably even worse.

That is not good for him. That shows exactly what Cohen talked about with Trump wanting something shady done, but not coming right out and ordering or demanding it, so he can maintain plausible deniability.

"You have to do us a favor" After the Ukraine president talks about wanting more anti-tank missiles.

Trump sounds like a third rate Mafioso. If they think this makes him look good, I can't wait to see the whistleblower report. Although predictably, the office of legal counsel concludes that DNI doesn't have to turn it over

The boulder missed.

Let's make it the Nazi propeller.

I saw a joke that described the boulder effect well.
Rudy is pulled over by a cop for a broken tail light and when the officer comes to the window Rudy immediately assures him he had nothing to do with the dead hooker in the trunk

I like that “explicit quid pro quo” is now the barrier for the GOP, since asking a foreign power to investigate a political opponent is apparently fine and dandy now.

Well, that's nice. Now hand over the whistleblower complaint.

I recommend this site unreservedly, it has been one of the best things on the internet for 10+ years.

Note there is a warning curtain at the bridge height on the other side of the light as well 5 or 6 signs, blinking indicator lights, etc. The bridge is still hit about once a month, usually by renters in UHauls (kind of understandable) but sometimes by professional drivers (totally unacceptable).

I used to drive through an underpass in Durham and was convinced it was this one but later learned that, no, it's a completely different one.

Lol! Gotta investigate her emails some more

BREAKING: The Department of Justice has declined to pursue an investigation into whether President Trump's call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky violated campaign finance law, despite receiving whistleblower complaint.

This is wonderful. Recall doesn't recall unless you confirm, so all sending a recall does is alert the recipient that you f-cked up.

Do you know where this one is?

I saw this happen once in South Dakota on a bridge that was ridiculously low. It's pretty amazing to see in person.

Re: POTUS 45.58: Admit it, those lights are making you look orange too.

Huh. Apparently in the minutes of Trump's Ukrainian phone call, the company Crowdstrike was mentioned. Which is a global super cyber security team that uncovered Russian malware used in the Ukraine.

But they were also the company that researched the break in of the DNC server and uncovered the Russian involvement.

They're a company that Putin seems to hate. Why would Trump make a point of singling them out?

Re: POTUS 45.58: Admit it, those lights are making you look orange too.

Fade is right...they made this the center point for a reason. The Dems need to keep hammering about the whistleblower. And they need to start leaking info like a sieve.

My guess would be they used Ghouliani to backchannel the threat to military aid after the initial discussion got a lukewarm reception, and possibly promised them even more money if they would mysteriously "find" evidence during said investigation that would "prove" that what Biden did was improper. Deepfakes are a thing now.

Luckily for William Barr, the guy mentioned in the call, there is another William Barr who is head of the DOJ and quashing any investigations into it. Lucky break!

There is something to all of this. Trump never changes the story this fast (usually takes a week or so of set up) and he NEVER shows weakness by asking the other side to drop it. They are circling the wagons and quickly.

Schiff needs to get the Whistleblower on the record and ANYONE who tries to get in the way needs to be threatened and charged with obstruction. And everything needs to be vetted...dont fall for any bear traps.

Re: POTUS 45.58: Admit it, those lights are making you look orange too.

At least one Republican Senator has stated not on the record that is was beyond stupid for them to release the transcript.

GOP is hitting heavy on "Quid Pro Quo". A legal term. They're trying to muddy the waters. NO QUID PRO QUO is required here. This is going to be muddied up just like collusion was.

“I will say that we do a lot for Ukraine. We spend a lot of effort and a lot of time. ... I would like you to do us a favor, though.” would be a quid pro quo in any other universe.

You can check that by inserting Obama’s name in there.

Had he done this, Malia and Sasha would be in Guantanamo

Re: POTUS 45.58: Admit it, those lights are making you look orange too.

Only if the Dems fall for it. They have the transcript so stop talking about it.

The Dems have the evidence and the Whistleblower is going to speak. Dont get in a shouting match over the details because no one cares anyways. Rudy has done more damage to the case in the last 48 hours just talking to Faux News so it isnt like they wont talk their way into worse charges. If you have to go on one of the Talk Blather Shows and they have their GOP person on to try and get ratings just have it go this way:

Host: So GOP Clown do you think this is bad?
GOP Clown: No! They cant prove anything. The transcript shows no quid pro quo...they have zero!
Host: Dem how do you respond?
Dem: Trump tried to make this all go away for a reason. Let's see what the Whistleblower says...
GOP Clown: NO QUID PRO QUO!! CONSPIRACY GEORGE SOROS!!!!!! WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITCH HUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dem: All we are doing is investigating. Congress has a job to do and we will. If there is no crime committed he won't be Impeached!
Gop Clown: This is just another Dem conspiracy trying to tarnish the legacy of Trump with lies...
Host: I have no opinion of my own...I am just here for the paycheck.

The Dems need to have the right people out there talking about this. Schiff and Lieu would be my picks.
