Trump has now declared that Speaker Pelosi is no longer leading the House, that Romney ought to be impeached, that any of his GOP competitors during the election were crooked or defunct somehow.

well, there has been a saying for some time that if you want to k,ow what Pelosi is doing tomorrow see what Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is tweeting today.

If this doesn't wake up his base to his existential threat to our democracy, nothing will.- Doc

Please, continue with your assumption that i am ignorant and make manifest this "existential threat". Not that the sky isn't falling, but all you got is a nut on the head at this point.
so please, explain how America and the US Constitution is so fragile that 35 months of 1 President is anywhere near a "threat". Explain how this cheeto that you proclaim as being a moron and failure can disassemble the stronghold of American Liberty in one term, as one branch.
I can wait for the smoke to clear from your hair-fire if you need the time.

Sure, no problem.

You don’t even need to ask us to do so given how obvious this conclusion is.

WASHINGTON — Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, two key subjects in House Democrats' impeachment inquiry who worked with Rudy Giuliani in an effort to gather damaging information about Joe Biden, have been arrested, a spokesperson for the US attorney's office in Manhattan confirmed Thursday morning.

The US attorney's office did not immediately say what the two foreign-born nationals were charged with, but did confirm that prosecutors out of New York are handling the case. According to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported the arrests, the charges are related to campaign finance violations.

A copy of the indictment, which was first published by the New York Times, shows the two men were charged with conspiring to get around federal laws that prohibit foreign nationals from contributing to US campaigns. They're accused of entering into "secret agreements" to hide the scheme from candidates and federal regulators, laundering foreign money into the campaigns through various corporate identities, and using "straw donors" to make the contributions.

Rudy Giuliani’s indicted Ukraine henchman gave thousands to Kevin McCarthy

By Brad Reed October 10, 2019

Lev Parnas, the foreign-born businessman who was indicted this week on campaign-finance charges, donated thousands of dollars last year to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA).

As flagged by New York Daily News reporter Michael McAuliff, Parnas in June 2018 contributed $2,700 to McCarthy’s reelection campaign.

Other filings made with the Federal Elections Commission show that Parnas donated that exact same amount to Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX), who on Thursday was implicated in an indictment of Parnas and his business partner, Igor Fruman.

Mostly, however, Parnas in recent years has made donations to assorted state Republican parties throughout the country, as well as to the pro-Trump Great America super PAC.

So they were arrested just an hour after meeting Giuliani for lunch, and they were headed to Germany with recently purchased one-way tickets.

Nothing to see here? Looks like someone was trying to get the hell out of Dodge.

lol

Could you imagine if anything like this had happened with a Democrat?

[_Gunnar]

Yeah, but according to subgenius, hypocrisy is not a crime, and is nothing to be concerned about!

[_EAllusion]

I like how there were 43 new allegations of sexual assault against the President yesterday and his other, more even more alarming conduct is crowding out conversation about it.

I think Ken White (i.e. Popehat) described this as being newsboarded.
