Ok, I'm less than 15 minutes into

the Rachel Maddow show and this shit is getting crazy. Idgaf if it's called impeachment investigation or what you call it but all this information of the hundreds of impeachable offenses and crimes by trump and those within fart smelling distance of him have to be made available clearly and often to those who don't watch Rachel. Come on majority leader people need to hear and really see what is going on . 2020 depends on it.

1. Rachel is on it. But pretty much it for the rest of the MSM.

Who are referring to as 'majority leader'? Certainly no McConnell. So Pelosi?

Nancy is way too quiet.

as to whether a subpoena is worth the paper it is written on, or not?

If a judge says they have to obey the subpoena, and they don't, what recourse do we have?

The dems need to figure out how to FORCE compliance.

If you or I ignored a subpoena, we would be in jail within hours. Find a police force that must answer to a judge and insist they do their job. If they don't, have THEM arrested. Let's use the domino theory.

It has got to start somewhere.

need trump staff for. Use their sworn Mueller testimony in lieu of appearance. Introduce statements where trump told them not to testify. There are many many other things to impeach him on. Just do it. We are just looking played. Add to that we aren't even promising articles...just may or may not.

fascists on anything, including money to keep the government going? If the gov is broken, if capitalism is broken shut it down, put the breaks on everything except going after the gop crime family.

11. I was just thinking this today. They need a PR firm

like, yesterday. I'm sure there are liberal PR firms that would help, pro bono, because we really need it. Every now and then there's a nugget of common sense optics--like Schumer and Pelosi announcing the call to the WH over background checks... and asking for MoscowMitch to do his job, but that's once in a blue moon. Consistency matters. Telling OUR side to the American public, every single day, matters.
