Fiona Hill: Impeachment Queen

https://thebulwark.com/fiona-hill-impeachment-queen/

She's not the hero we deserve. She's the hero we need.
by TIM MILLER NOVEMBER 21, 2019



spent a decade watching impeachment hearings this week. Hours upon hours of puffed-up pols posturing and patronizing and waging war on our psyche through parliamentary procedure.

As the week was coming to a close, brain fried from staring deep into the pixelized abyss, navigating the two alternate universes being presented, trying to contain the bubbling contempt for all involved, contemplating a permanent death to our polity, it was then that she appeared. Rising from the coal ash to bring us new life.

It was Dr. Fiona Hill. Fiona Thee Stallion. Forestalling the coming winter by delivering a needed dose of Hot Fiona Fall.

A woman whose lore preceded her. At age 11, a young Jim Jordan type set one of her pigtails on fire while she was taking a test. With a flick of the wrist, she put the fire out with her own bare hands. And then finished the test. Unconfirmed legend has it that the young man then micturated in his underoos and was never seen from again.

Queen Fiona. First of her name.

that the rethugs & Trump were mocking her British accent. At least she knows how to speak, Trump must remember that his grandfather slithered off the boat to come to this country because he was thrown out of his own country.
Like his grandson Trump he was too cowardly to serve in the military and was called out for his refusal to serve in the military.

She said in her testimony that she would have been held back because she came from a poor coal mining family, if she stayed in England, but was able to rise to her potential in America.
