The floodgates are opening --
News from the past 30 mins:— Ryan J. Reilly (@ryanjreilly) September 30, 2019
- Rudy Giuliani subpoenaed.
- WSJ: Mike Pompeo was on Trump’s Ukraine call.
- NYT: Trump pushed Australian prime minister to help with probe he wants to undermine the Russia investigation.
Happy Monday!
UPDATE: Add another log, this one involving Low Barr prodding foreign intelligence services to help him discredit the origins of the Mueller probe.
BONUS: Meanwhile, the Very Stable Genius is busy melting down:
In the last 24 hours the president has:— Kathryn Watson (@kathrynw5) September 30, 2019
— Raised arresting a political opponent for treason
— Retweeted someone suggesting impeachment will create civil war-like fractures
— Insisted he deserves to meet the whistleblower
— Said he's trying to "find out" about the whistleblower
So inciting civil war, saying a member of Congress should be arrested for treason, and seeking to out and discredit a whistleblower are all old news because they happened more than 2 hours ago? Let's try not to forget.— David Rothkopf (@djrothkopf) September 30, 2019
But remember --
As you watch Trump’s defenders lie, deflect, and distract today and in the coming weeks, remember that they don’t care about being caught in obvious lies. Calling bullshit still means you’re talking about the bullshit, not the facts.— Garry Kasparov (@Kasparov63) September 29, 2019
This is part of the “flood not dam” model. They want doubt. They can make up a dozen new lies and new distractions every day while there’s only one truth. Stop chasing them and keep repeating the facts.— Garry Kasparov (@Kasparov63) September 29, 2019
