    Allan Lichtman, who has correctly predicted the results of the past 9 presidential elections says the Dems must impeach Trump, or lose. Incumbency & a strong economy work in Trump's favor. Lichtman is worth a close listen. cnn.it/2YUTqh7

    I held a "Q" clearance (nuclear programs), requiring an additional, rigorous background check, monitoring my finances, travels, associations, communications, etc. It's no joke. Nuclear is as sensitive as it gets. If Trump isn't prosecuted then our justice system is indeed a joke.

    Uh-huh. That's what we call a "diplomatic excuse." Dolly is class act. She played it right.

    Our constitutional system is like a biological organism: if an infection sets in, antibodies come to attack, control & eliminate it. Asha's got it right. Courts, justice system, press, Congress are our antibodies. Just takes some time.

    In his self-serving, hate-filled book, Pompeo dishonors those diplomats who sacrificed their lives as well as the thousands today who serve worldwide, including in hardship posts and war zones. He’s not worthy of the selfless service they gave him.

    Any of us Feds/ex-Feds who smuggled TS/SCI nuclear programs-related documents home would be joining the mixer for newbies at Leavenworth by now.

    NEWWWS -- Details about nuclear capabilities of a foreign government were in records seized at trump's Mar-a-Lago in early August. As well as details of US programs so secret that seniormost natsec officials didn't know they existed. me & @DevlinBarrett washingtonpost.com/national-secur…

    I worked on policy issues at the State Dept for years, including Afghanistan. Trump’s story that he wasn't briefed on Russian bounties doesn’t pass the laugh test. My piece in Washington Monthly -- washingtonmonthly.com/2020/07/10/the…

    Here's an idea: Laura creates a new segment on her show titled, "Memorial Wall for Our Anti-Vax Dead." Every show will end with a solemn scrolling of the death roster of anti-vax guests who've passed on to Ivermectin Valhalla.

    "Once heralded as “the future of hopeful, aspirational politics in America,” Elise Stefanik is now little more than a self-serving and soulless political hack."

    Anybody keeping a tally on GOP operatives arrested for crimes against children? I've lost count.
