[From the last Sandbox I will repeat my 920am invitation.  'Paul, you guys continue going after the low-hanging fruit on Trump. Why don't you instead take on something more meaningful to Americans? – your assertions that tax rates don't affect economic behavior, or 'border walls don't work', or more regulations encourage commerce and entrepreneurial activity, or capitalism has created all the world's ills, or bigger government taking on a bigger share of the economy is better, or people are indifferent to living among others more like themselves, or … .  There are so many things you guys believe in that you should really attempt to substantiate instead of displaying your ongoing spasms of TDS.' gjr]

    Jerry the nads would be a senior jurist in Stalin’s or Hitler’s ‘courts’ with this or even Alice in wonderland! –
    Reading from a prepared text, Nadler argued: “The House rule does not require me to schedule a hearing on a particular day, nor does it require me to schedule the hearing as a condition precedent to taking any specific legislative action.”
    In other words, he interpreted the rule as allowing him to schedule the minority witness hearing after the articles of impeachment had already passed.

    Did botox get played by her left flank to our electoral benifit, it seems so. Schiff for brains and crew are the gift that just keeps on giving. –
    On Tuesday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that after months of haggling over key details, House Democrats had officially agreed to back a revised version of Trump’s new trade pact ­— an announcement made just one dizzying hour after House Democratic leaders unveiled articles of impeachment against him.
    Many progressives were apoplectic about the mixed messaging, arguing — like Trump — that the USMCA would effectively help keep in office the same dangerous president Democrats were simultaneously endeavoring to remove.
    “Nothing more perfectly embodies the Democratic party than announcing articles of impeachment and a huge deal with the President on his single biggest priority on the same day,” tweeted MSNBC host Chris Hayes.
    “House Dems were elected on a wave of anti-Trump sentiment and are now diligently working to ensure his reelection and send the message to the electorate that impeachment is just meaningless partisan theater,” added the Atlantic’s Adam Serwer.

    It’s almost enough to give one hope. Maybe bit by bit the immune system of Western Civilization is kicking in.

    Parallels from across the Pond?
    THE BRITISH WORKING-CLASS SAVES BRITAIN – AND ITS JEWS
    “The white working class, those blue-collar workers who had been tribal Labour supporters for generations, voted en masse for the Conservatives for the first time ever.
    Boris Johnson effectively smashed the “red wall”, the swathes of hitherto rock-solid Labour-held seats in the north of England and the Midlands which all turned blue overnight.
    Astoundingly, economically shattered communities with very high levels of poverty and unemployment, even former mining towns whose inhabitants had voted Labour virtually from the time the party was invented, all voted on Thursday for an Eton-educated, plummy-voiced toff in preference to the leader of the Labour party.
    Why? Because the British working-class is deeply, passionately patriotic and attached to democracy. They are the very best of Britain. Time and again they have saved the country in its wars against tyranny by putting their lives on the line to defend what it stands for: their historic culture, institutions and values.
    That’s because it was trying to straddle its two constituencies: working-class Brexiteers and the liberal metropolitan intelligentsia who control the party. These liberal universalists all voted to remain in the EU. And they haven’t stopped denigrating those who voted Brexit as half-witted, racist xenophobes.
    It’s hard to exaggerate the anger by the Brexit-voting working-class at what they saw as an anti-democratic coup by Remainer Labour MPs who were determined to stop Brexit and spit in the eye of democracy.
    These working-class voters also believe in hard work, responsibility and their own human dignity. They feel patronised and demeaned by welfare dependency, and have absolutely no time for the metropolitan liberals’ social agenda.”

    You do have to admire the concept of weaponized immigration as a political tool. There’s a ruthless purity to it.

    ,,,as usual,,,lapdogs Wally and Toddler are whining about the impeachment “process”…
    You already know how each side is going to vote…Loudmouth yellers on the conservo side are not going to change anyone’s mind. Conservos have been whining about process the entire time…
    But Conservos made zero, ZERO arguments regarding the constitutionality of what Trump has been doing…
    The trial in the Senate is where all the testimony will happen…
    I am already over the impeachment issue.
    Trump will have an asterisk added to his name like some steroid sporto to indicate that his “””achievements””” are tainted…
