1. Very brave, I don't envy them.

[malaise]

3. Hope you're watching Hurricane Lorenzo the way we're watching the Con

[OnDoutside]

13. Apparently we are at the "closely monitor" stage !

It's funny that it really hasn't hit the news yet (much).....it this was the US, the queues to evacuate would be well under way !

From our Met Service

Met Éireann has said that it will continue to "closely monitor" Hurricane Lorenzo, which is currently over the south Atlantic Ocean.

The latest projections show that the major storm may come close to Ireland, but forecasters have said its exact path and strength in the North Atlantic are "very uncertain".

According to the US National Hurricane Centre, Lorenzo has strengthened to a category 5 hurricane, with maximum sustained winds of 250km/h.

The NHC said that it was the strongest hurricane on record this far north and east in the Atlantic basin.

It is currently 2,000km southwest of the Azores island group.

19. Should be a TS as it approaches you

The Azores can't handle this much water

[OnDoutside]

23. I'd take that. It's almost 32 years since that surprise hurricane hit

these islands.

[OnDoutside]

32. Just got an update from the WH for us in the south of Ireland...looks troubling

[malaise]

33. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

This needs its own OP

[mysteryowl]

15. I don't trust Nunes to keep their identity secret.

[malaise]

2. Oh My - Tribe says Adam Schiff was one of his best students

[mucifer]

5. I remember trump's professor interviewed stating the opposite of trump

[malaise]

8. I knew a now deceased professor who wrote a column

in a Sunday newspaper defending himself after one of his students criticized him. He said he wouldn't take 'that not too bright student seriously'. My friends and I were freshers and made a vow the next day that he's never write that about us. We went out of our way to ace his course.

[Mike 03]

4. I just had a crazy thought. What if Kurt Volker IS the whistleblower?

Nah...

[NCjack]

14. Rudy promised to emerge as the "hero" -- so, Rudy must

be the whistleblower.

[OnDoutside]

24. I hope not, as that would give Trump an excuse.

[jcgoldie]

6. Well your TV viewing habits are better than mine

I was watching Lindsay Graham squirming like a weasel and fellating Donald Trump on Face the Nation.

[malaise]

9. I stopped watching those Sunday shows ages ago

It's a rare Sunday if I watch any of them for even five minutes

[mucifer]

7. Fingers crossed a bunch more whistleblowers come out

[malaise]

11. As we say here

The dam bruk!

[CatWoman]

10. ON ANOTHER NOTE

I just love Joy's hair

[malaise]

12. Was for the Central Park show yesterday

[shanti]

22. You know who else's hair I like?

The legal commentator on MSNBC, Maya Wiley. It is just beautiful.

[SCVDem]

16. Every time they show new Lindsay,

they have to show old, Clinton era Lindsay.

What's changed? Please explain your shift in position, a flip-flop one might say, on impeachment?

Can you say fucking hypocrite?

Good boy!

[malaise]

18. All I want to know is what the Con has on him

It must be very damaging because no one should demean themselves in this way

[ffr]

17. Tribe has been going off. He's right.

20. Truth will out

Justice is coming. The Con will finally suffer the consequences of his venal, vile, racist misogynist corrupt life. I can't freaking wait

[dem4decades]

27. I wish i had your positive attitude.

[malaise]

30. Dams always break

and then you can't stop the water. People wake up because the shtick doesn't measure up to the propaganda. What's more there are always people who are never afraid. They lead and others follow.

The real question is what will be done to ensure that all these criminals, mercenaries, racists, women haters and other such scumbags can't resurface in the mainstream.

[Garrett78]

26. The problem is that that won't work. We need damaging testimony and that server.

There's no way impeachment will be even remotely bipartisan and there's no chance at conviction if Dems don't uncover more hard evidence. I'm optimistic that they will, but if they don't, this will backfire.

The phone call summary, the WaPo story about what Trump told Russian officials in the oval office and "your stonewalling proves you did something wrong" won't be enough. Dems need to compile a mountain of evidence.

[Duppers]

21. Wow. In person? His life is in danger.

TrumpBots are irrational crazies.

[pwb]

25. T V is real nice when it is off.

Not glued anymore

[H2O Man]

28. Recommended.

Laurence Tribe is a gem.

I assume the whistleblower will testify behind closed doors. But we'll get a good idea what he has to say soon enough.

[malaise]

31. Tribe is a fearless defender of institutions

Watching the process unfold is something to behold

[Garrett78]

29. The US has a very ugly history when it comes to whistleblowers.

I'm going to assume the testimony will be behind closed doors, but even that probably won't keep the person's identity from being revealed.

If history is any judge, the whistleblower will be punished far more severely than the whistleblown. Let's hope this time is different.
