If only there was some three word latin phrase to describe such a scenario!


I wish I knew enough Latin to come up with an equivalent for "but her emails"

Sed eius literis!

(Assuming "letters" is a close enough substitute for "e-mails", anyway. Obviously they didn't have an exact word for that.)

I like that Taylor testifies about the incredibly suspect "call me to discuss crimes" phone call requests from those text messages and they were exactly what they sounded like.

Very important point: if Trump had gotten Zelensky to say publicly that Ukraine was investigating Biden, even if such an investigation would have inevitably have found nothing, the press would have run with it just like her emails. Just that public statement would have been a huge quid.

Well you see there was a Roman emperor who wanted to hide his letters from the Senate, so he set up a storehouse for all of his letters in the Ukraine. But, of course, the barbarians got to it and knew where all the Roman armies were going to be, so they won the war.

What I'm more worried about is that Ukraine would have faked some evidence against Biden. Former Soviet countries are absolutely not above fabricating evidence. If this was going to be an honest investigation, and honestly, Biden sounds incredibly shady demanding that a prosecutor be fired in exchange for US aid, that'd be one thing, but making up evidence is not acceptable.

The Press is already going to be running with it. And the story will carry until election day. Doesn't matter how innocent Biden is.

The press has definitely been far from perfect on the Biden thing (the first few days being especially shaky, and they a lot of times say something like unsubstantiated rather than baseless when talking about the allegations), but theyve definitely been handling it a lot better than the Clinton email story (and I doubt that would have been the case had this come out through Zelensky announcing an investigation instead of through the whistleblower).

That was the US position when Biden was vice president. Now we have a different president who is slightly less self-interested in this than Biden was.

Also, supposing the prosecutor was corrupt and wasn't investigating some known corrupt people, that doesn't imply his investigation of Burisma wasn't legit.

It was legit. It was also dormant for over a year at the time of his firing. It was also regarding conduct occurring before Hunter Biden joined the company.

The corrupt prosecutor that Biden wanted fired was deciding NOT to investigate Burisma. That's why Biden having done this to protect Hunter doesn't even make any sense.

Maybe that's why they brought Hunter on board - they were counting on his dad to shut down the investigation.

I think Fight Song is like the musical embodiment of 40+ year old uninteresting white women and thus more appropriate if we're voting.

A "propagandist trash" label is probably too strong as the writing is usually really good as far as far left gonzo "journalism" goes. They lack any semblance of credibility though and this is not the first time they've tried to push hit pieces on moderates without doing enough research first.

Every time I see a video of Hillary in the 90s I'm amazed how ugly she was then. Especially next to Bill. I bet a lot of people forgave Bill his affairs based on how horrifying being married to Hillary must have seemed.

She also attempts a Southern drawl and, of course, manages to insult whole sections of the population without trying (in this case, women who "stand by their man" but apparently don't love their husband as much as Hillary says she loves Bill).

I'm not commenting on your comments but Hillary was actually quite gorgeous when she was young.
