Trump Articles of Impeachment

Another witness has come forward who also heard the call between Sondlund and Il Douche.  Both will be called to testify.  It's not like you're defending a paragon of virtue, and you damn well know it, as do the GOP members of the House, who were the ones actually engaged in "kabuki theater".  May you reap the karma of your constant lies.

This is an old crazyperson pattern that they've fallen into:  they've decided, beforehand, what the truth is going to be... which is whatever they want to believe.  Then, any evidence to the contrary is the result of either bias or an "conspiracy."  It's never just the truth or a fact because they don't ever decide anything based on reality or evidence.  The only things that are "real" to these people are things that defend Trump (even if they're total hogwash) and say Obama or Hilary are bad (because, somehow, that's always hand-in-hand with defending Trump -- "whataboutism" is mandatory... and it doesn't matter if the anti-Obama or Hillary material is a huge lie or misrepresentation, it only matters that it helps them reach their desired outcome.

It's all a game of foregone conclusions, with anything that doesn't fit dismissed by whatever desperate means they can come up with, no matter how silly or ridiculous.  Like, the Mueller Report (the real one, not Barr's version) is "preposterous" while the QAnon conspiracy is totally logical and a real thing.  Or, Biden is actually crazy enough to brag in public about stopping an investigation into his son... rather than him actually talking about making an official who wasn't investigating corruption do his job.  These people live in a world where they think Obama gave billions in American money to Iran, or sold guns to Mexican drug cartels, etc.   Nothing is too far-fetched as long as it's bad for a Democrat.

Meanwhile, the idea that a guy like Donald Trump, who has always been corrupt in his business dealings, as well as a serial liar, did something shady is just crazy to them... and if FOX is reporting that, then FOX has turned on them.   'Cuz, no matter what happens, it can't be true.  

Watch this stuff, folks.  Beyond a historical event, it's a fascinating peek into  the power of mass delusion and the psychology of groups.  We're getting to  see how a brainwashed cult, who've never been educated by the things that they watch, read, and listen to as much as they've been trained by it, react when they're confronted with a truth that doesn't fit the story they need to believe.  Their little minds are just breaking.  They don't know what to do, and they're getting crazier and crazier.

I have no idea how the Trump cult is going to end.  Maybe they'll take their disillusionment like adults and slink away sadder but wiser... but, from my experience with 'em, I don't think that'll be how most of 'em deal with it.  Some will just mire down into the crazy denial so much that they'll make no sense whatsoever anymore, just be one big sticky clot of increasingly-implausible conspiracies.  And then there's the possibility of some kind of Jonestown ending, where vast numbers of them somehow destroy themselves, maybe not literally, but in some other way.   Then there's the one that's most worrysome -- that they'll lash out and try to harm others.  Because make no mistake, these people are radicalized.  Politics has become a religion to them, and they're fundamentalist about it.  They've been crazy enough to put all their faith into someone as ridiculously unworthy of anyone's faith as Donald Trump, and they're not going to be able to handle it when they're proven to be gullible idiots.  There's gonna be some kind of societal strife out of this, I'm just not sure what.

That's part of the reason that I hope Trump's not removed from office this way.  He needs to be voted out, in disgrace, by overwhelming numbers.  The people who've been emboldened by him need to have it made clear to them that they've been rejected by the vast majority of their countrymen, and the shit they've been proudly flaunting for the past couple-er-three years is stuff they'd be far better off being ashamed of.

"We have taken the oil. I've taken the oil. We should have done it in other locations, frankly, where we were. I can name four of them right now, but we've taken the oil ... our great soldiers are right around the oil where we've got the oil."

A watchdog report on the Russia probe finds no evidence of political bias, despite performance failures, according to a summary obtained by The Associated Press. The report, by the Justice Department inspector general, also found 17 "significant errors or omissions" in surveillance applications for Trump campaign aide Carter Page, but no intentional misconduct.

The Justice Department's internal watchdog released the highly anticipated report Monday that rejects President Donald Trump's claims that the Russia investigation was illegitimate and politically motivated while acknowledging certain failures during the course of the investigation.

The report comes as Trump faces an impeachment inquiry in Congress centered on his efforts to press Ukraine to investigate a political rival, Democrat Joe Biden — a probe the president also claims is politically biased.
