    Oh, I'm with you here. Got yet another fundraising email from Pelosi today. All about the climate marches. Yeah, that's the number one thing on your plate today. I know she's shielding the members of her caucus who're afraid to do anything so they can remain anonymous. That comes with her job. But so does leading when necessary. And I am convinced just the threat of outing them would bring them right aboard the impeachment train. They couldn't afford to do anything else.

    The Genovese thing has been pretty well debunked.

    People acted. It just took the cops too long to get there.

    As to Pelosi and the Democrats.

    I think she takes the phrase, 'if you come at the king, you best not miss' to heart. That would account for her overcaution.

    But the Democrats generally have moved so far right over the years they represent just another brand of timid, establishment conservatism.

    Their inability to rise to this historical moment should surprise no one.

    I don't mind Pelosi "holding back the mob" I would prefer she allowed some Ds to get a few solid shots in though.

    These people seek money. I get the emails all the time.
    That's how oblivious they are- they just keep rattling their pans while doing jack.
    I know this is a difficult situation but it requires sterner stuff than this.

    His suit jackets are now so large, FATUS looks like he's going in net for the Caps.

    It is amazing to me that this isn't a BFD.

    The original Wash Post stories about the whistleblower, said the concern was about "promises" Trump made to a foreign leader.

    The pink elephant in the room is the question about whether he actually hamhandedly offered (or threatened to withhold) a quid pro quo of the US foreign aid.

    What an f'in disgrace.
