Was kinda funny watching Minority Whiner Numbnutz get his lacy pink panties in a bunch.

Key takeaways and analysis from today's impeachment inquiry hearing: A critique of Pompeo, a gender-centric stunt and more
As former ambassador Marie Yovanovitch painted a picture of a State Department subject to President Trump��s whims and tweets, he issued a tweet about her that became a subject of the hearing.

...........and Trump just had to throw in a hand grenade.........by tweeting during the proceedings...........but she handled that tweet very well.......and accurately. He is intimidating the witness. Which is what he is doing by demanding that many don't cooperate. .....ie stonewalling.
UNFIT FOR THE JOB............should be so evident by now............ that is is astonishing that anyone still supports this impostor in chief. It is glaringly obvious that there is nothing professional about the Trump regime.
........got to wonder how Trump supporters would feel if their boos behaved like trump......... eg: smearing co workere, over reacting, being prejudiced , biased and inappropriate. ......while doing very little for the company they are working for. How long would a boss like that last?? How long wold the employees stay there..........andhow long would the company last??
Donald proved again.....just how far off the sanity rails he has gone. ............
Trump attacks ambassador even as she describes feeling threatened by him
The former ambassador to Ukraine told impeachment investigators that the transcript of President Trump's Ukraine call left her ��shocked�� and ��devastated.�� While she was testifying, the president continued to go after her, writing on Twitter, ��Everywhere Marie Yovanovitch went turned bad.��

apart from being despicable conduct............ this is a potential article for impeachment......
Intimidating a witness while the witness is testifying. Is he THAT stupid?? (no need to answer that one)
this is ow the Mafia operates.......
One of the defenses of Trump is — literally — a TV-cartoon joke
“Convicted of a crime I didn’t even commit. Hah! Attempted murder? Now honestly, what is that? Do they give a Nobel Prize for attempted chemistry? Do they?”
— Sideshow Bob, “The Simpsons,” Season Six, Episode Five, 1994
This rhetorical absurdity, originally intended as a joke on a TV cartoon, is now being trotted out in all seriousness by the GOP. What New York magazine writer Jonathan Chait has called the “Sideshow Bob defense” has become central to Republican efforts to shield President Trump from accusations of wrongdoing. Because the Ukrainian quid pro quo was ultimately unsuccessful, the argument goes, no crime was committed, even if one was attempted. The editorial page of the Wall Street Journal wrote (apparently not joking): “Many people in the Administration opposed the Giuliani effort, including some in senior positions at the White House. This matters because it may turn out that while Mr. Trump wanted a quid-pro-quo policy ultimatum toward Ukraine, he was too inept to execute it.”
Chait has noted other examples. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), for instance, said: “Name me one thing that Ukraine did to release the money. Nothing.” Never mind the explicit request for “a favor” or that the aid may have been released because skeptical National Security Council staff members started raising questions.
And instances of this extraordinarily strained attempt at excuse-making keep coming. In an interview with The Washington Post, Nikki Haley reasoned: “There was no heavy demand insisting that something had to happen. So it’s hard for me to understand where the whole impeachment situation is coming from, because what everybody’s up in arms about didn’t happen.” In the end, “the aid flowed.”
Good point, Sideshow Bob.

It's interesting, and not really distressing anymore, to see the calm, professional, expert demeanor of the civil service professionals up against the clown show of the Representatives.
And no, I'm not limiting that to the Rep-tiles.
And no, I'm not limiting that to the Rep-tiles.
The populists claim that the professional civil service make up a swamp but really, they provide a reasonable continuity of governance between the wacky populists.
They're the ones who run the country.
My favorite wish is "Give taxslave what he wants. . . a life completely unaffected by civil servants."
He might live long enough to regret his wish, but I doubt it.
Mogadishu ... one way ticket and see what a completely unfettered free market looks like.
I always pointed that out to the capitalism fantasists. None of 'em ever buy a plane ticket, though.
Pansies.
Trump denies witness tampering, says he has right to free speech
https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...l_news__alert-politics--alert-national&wpmk=1
sure........but he does NOT have the "right" to abuse that freedom. ........which he does on a regular basis. Hurtful, derogatory and vile speach is sooo UNPRESIDENTIAL........so unprofessional......... and just immature. And can be illegal. ie defamation of character. Which he commits on a daily basis.
