I read ‘Bats**t Crazy’: Twitter Users Shred Rudy Giuliani’s CNN Antics and asked myself the question “did Rudy just pour gasoline on the whistleblower story?” I wondered how Nancy Pelosi was reacting to watching this interview. The story refers to this Chris Cuomo interview with Trump’s personal lawyer.
If you’ve been in a medically induced coma over the past 12 hours here’s the story.
As you would expect, #UkraineGate, #WhistlebowerComplaint, and of course #WhistleblowerGate are all trending on Twitter.
Let’s hope Nancy Pelosi watched Lawrence Tribe on Lawrence O’Donnell last night:
Last night Lawrence Tribe had the last word: It's treachery if not treason.
“He violates the emoluments clauses, he enriches himself at the expense of American taxpayers, he takes money from foreign governments in order to benefit himself, he bends policy in the direction of those governments, whether it’s Saudi Arabia or another country, to enhance his own wealth,” Tribe told MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell.
“And now, we understand, he may have been making some kind of deal with Ukraine, perhaps to get information of a negative kind about Joe Biden’s son in exchange for aid to Ukraine,” he added, in reference to a report in The Washington Post last week.
“It’s treachery if not treason and it’s bribery and it’s unacceptable,” he said.
If anything should prompt Nancy Pelosi to change her mind and impeachment this should be it.
