Today should be really interesting watching the GOP men try to make the ambassador seem like an incompetent bitch out to undermine Dear Leader while trying not to piss off 51% of the US population. A high degree of difficulty and a near certainty of failure. She's way smarter than all of them and has the benefit of a lifetime of diplomacy.

Oh wow, look, Devin Nunes is using his time to bloviate and lick boots rather than ask questions

Ok Schiff is being a total dick right now. I give no empathy for ass hats like Jordan or Nunes, but Schiff basically won't let any Republicans speak right now.

Nice of Trump to do some real-time witness intimidation during the hearings today. He just can't help himself

Good to know that the Republicans' bluster and fake outrage is effective...

Schiff has been doing a great job of not letting people speak out of turn or be disruptive. I applaud his work today.

I think this is exceptionally likely. All of the things he was found guilty of are things they want to frame as "deep state" stuff, "fake news" or "a farce." Fits the narrative and signals to all the cronies that pardons are on the table.

I'd tread lightly, if I were you. Nunes sued a cow for less than this.
