A wee story about John Thaw.

I like talking to taxi drivers. One cabbie told me he'd had a lot of famous people in his car, but his favourite, by far, was John Thaw. He had to pick up John at the Europa Hotel and drive him to the North coast to meet a director about a film.

@SpeakerPelosi Dear Speaker, please withhold the articles from the Senate. Do Not name Impeachment Managers. Do not subject this historic vote to the this vile Senate.

Trump-loving troll who attacked veteran reporter Kurt Eichenwald will plead guilty: report https://t.co/D8iGPl8vEq

Listen to this. In speaking with @Lawrence, @ezraklein makes the terrifying point: what if trumps Ukraine scheme had never been caught, and - if he gets away with it - what does that mean for our country’s future?

@JohnCornyn I read this tweet and thought, "Oh, good! My senator is doing something for his constituents!" Then I read the bill...

This is a pure sell-out to the generic drug industry. It has *nothing* to do with patient benefits, but impedes pharma cos from improving drugs to force...

[Lisa Page @NatSecLisa]

This is a lie. Nothing like this ever happened.

I wish we had a president who knew how to act like one. SAD!

Conservative attorney group slams Trump's AG: "Bill Barr has grossly mischaracterized and subverted" IG findings https://t.co/DFv6OSU7je

[John Schindler @20committee]

If anything in the DoJ IG report really surprised you, you weren't paying attention since 2016. Trumpist spin is exactly as expected.

And Carter Page is still a moron who was rejected by the SVR, despite his repeated efforts to get them to recruit him, because he's too dumb.

JUST IN: Schiff has submitted classified evidence to the judiciary committee ahead up tonight’s impeachment markup. it’s the letter from the Pence aide who filed additional evidence after her testimony. Schiff says the office of the vice president has declined to declassify it.

So. There were a few reporters/analysts back then who nailed the initial stories. @FranklinFoer @20committee @LouiseMensch and a few others. Most in the media treated the russia story like a joke... like a reality tv show instead of the most important aspect of the election.

#KamalaHarris and #MaxineWaters are teaming up for their Housing is Infrastructure Act; a $100 billion investment in affordable housing. Previously they introduced the $13B Ending Homelessness Act. Rhetoric won't put a roof over your head, work does. #Kamala puts in the work!

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Republicans seem to be under the impression that, unless the president spoke the words "I am bribing Ukraine," there's no evidence of bribery or misconduct.

Nonetheless, Sondland has provided significant evidence of precisely that conditionality, for both the WH meeting and aid.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

While his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani pressures Ukraine to interfere in the 2020 campaign, Trump withholds vital aid Ukraine needs to defend against Russia.

Yet again, Trump puts his interest above the national interest.

We are launching an investigation into this scheme:

Big problems on the ferry from Freeport to Florida — announcement just made that any Bahamian without a visa must now get off. This is not normal. Nornally Bahamians can travel to USA with passport and a printout of their police record. This is a mess.
