think this is even weaker than i feared it would be. a motion to dismiss is coming on several grounds. this case won t see a jury. in my opinion, no one is above the law, and that includes donald j. trump. morning good morning. reaction to yesterday has really been something. yeah how do you really put this into context? i m not sure if we know at this point, i think there s a lot more that s going to play out, but certainly historic, unprecedented, stunning. i think one of the problems for the american people for everyone right now is the fact that they there is a lot that they don t know. keep being what s the underlying crime that makes this makes 34 counts of felony? that s not in here, right? and so transport currency is of the utmost importance in this moment, and we don t we don t know one of the big things, but we should also not downplaying. i think we are, but i think we should point out that the images coming out of 100 center street were there, but the picture is
Essentially an unindicted coconspirator. Yesterday we saw how the judicial system is supposed to work. Now, in a Functioning Congress, All Of The Lights would be blinking red today. In a Functioning Congress, the outgoing House Speaker would be directing the outgoing House Judiciary Chair to be beginning the very similar process of investigating cohens investigations. I wouldnt say you start an impeachment hearing, but you start the process. The president was accused of committing a crime in a federal courtroom. And if enough evidence is found in a Functioning Congress the committee would begin to draw up articles of impeachment. Of course this isnt a Functioning Congress.

Is there a dream list on your agenda that you might want to get done if youre going to have to trade something to get this shutdown done . Look, im not open to giving a penny to President Trump for this ridiculous wall of his. Then today, Nancy Pelosis office put out this statement. Democrats are united against the president s immoral, ineffective, and expensive wall. The wall that he specifically promised that mexico would pay for. Remember, Chuck Schumer had said okay to 1. 6 billion in wall funding to keep the government open. Now the democratic strategy appears to be focused on making the president eat his words on owning a shutdown.
