That’s your Republican govt right there.

More like a squid.

At first I thought, “The three stooges”, but quickly realized that those guys KNEW it was a farce.

My Latin is a little rusty…Quid pro quo means “treason for a favor”, right?

With Trump, Money Talks, Morals Walk.

Only the Republicans can’t …..sorry, won’t see it.

It was the most innocent phone call ever made.

Odd how the Millennials feel that private communication should be kept private and public servants communications should be accessible and transparent and that whistleblowers are a good thing. If the Republicans want to continue having a presence beyond packed courts this might be a good time to show some openness in governing. The resident’s greatest support came from those over 50 and non-college educated, a shrinking cohort.

I certainly enjoyed seeing one of the most accurate depictions ever of Rudy at his finest, all 3 of them should share the same cell when this is done and over with.

Nothing to see here, but 3 big, fat termites feasting on what once was our democratic republic. I find the venality in the awful details can only be taken in in short spurts, i.e., maybe 3 paragraphs at a time, then my mind’s, soul’s consumption of that, even a respite, breathing space necessary to fathom the heinous details of the plundering of our nation. It took Mueller’s team several years but the whistleblower’s quick assessment and courage plots the evil in a few pages of complaint for monstrosity’s eventual undoing. Our Pearl Harbor for future history books. Will we persevere in our task as our forebears so valiantly did?

Choke on the lies, deceit, and greed….you deserve everything you get!

Reminds me of the classic three monkeys, “See no evil, Hear no evil, Speak no evil.” Or, perhaps the rotund Sgt. Schultz from the “Hogan’s Heroes” TV show (“I see nothing!”). There are SO MANY republicans complicit in the enabling of the incredible damage the orange buffoon has perpetrated on our country! Way past time for accountability!

“I said absolutely nothing wrong; it was perfect,” Trump said outside the White House before departing for Houston. “There was no quid pro quo, there was nothing,” he later added. -Fox NewsHubris will bring down Trump. I do hope hubris will also bring down those corrupt, get-what-they-can around him.

Mafia capos have to be laughing their asses off. He can’t even do blackmail right.

To Trump supporters: Do you still approve of the way this administration is behaving?

The Fox news take on this is that the Democrats, particularly the Bidens, are guilty of exactly what they are accusing Trump of, that Ukraine had the evidence to prove it and Trump’s was a hero for trying to prevent a criminal from becoming the next president. Welcome to the Twilight Zone.

Is it me, or is Barr beginning to look a little like Kim Yong Un?

Committing a crime in plain sight is still a crime. Trump has spit on the Constitution every single day of his Presidency. There’s more than enough reasons to impeach him.

What a bunch of crazy selfish loons. They put themselves over country and party.

I just realized why the Republicans aren’t going after trump… he hasn’t worn a tan suit, or ordered Dijon Mustard on one of his hamberders… remember, those were MAJOR scandals for Obama…

Pundit Dana Milbank: "The question now is whether Republicans, who have tacitly endorsed Trump’s behavior so far, will go on record to uphold the propriety of this conduct and in doing so, affirm the constitutionality of such behavior not just for him but for presidents to come.Republicans (who decided perjury about sex was impeachment-worthy, and who thought it an abuse of power to defer deportations of certain illegal immigrants) must now decide whether to accept Trump’s standard as proper for future presidents. Would Republicans, with their votes on Trump’s impeachment, condone the actions of, say, future President Elizabeth Warren when she:

— Defies congressional power of the purse by unilaterally raiding the Pentagon budget to finance her pet projects?

— Rejects the authority of congressional oversight, disregards subpoenas and refuses to furnish documents, including a whistleblower complaint about the president deemed “urgent” by the intelligence community?

Continued: "

— Is found by an independent prosecutor appointed by her own administration to have engaged in 10 possible instances of obstruction of justice but is not charged because regulations prohibit such a move against a sitting president?

— Approves and reimburses secret payments, in violation of campaign-finance law, to a person threatening to put out damaging information about her?

— Fires an FBI director who refuses to call off a probe of one of her close associates?

— Rescinds the security clearance of a former CIA director critical of her, as well as the press credentials of journalists who criticize her administration?

— Persuades a foreign leader not to admit Republican members of Congress into his country?

— Repeatedly releases highly classified intelligence, some to a foreign enemy and some only to Democrats?

— Threatens to cut off highway funds and disaster aid to states and territories controlled by Republicans, and declares she has the “absolute” right to move criminals to jurisdictions governed by Republicans?

— Funnels millions of taxpayer dollars to her own businesses, pressures federal agencies and international organizations to do business with her personal enterprises, invites foreign governments to pay millions of dollars to her businesses, and rejects a law requiring her to provide Congress with her tax returns?

And finally: "

— Calls for a boycott of the parent company of a media outlet critical of her, threatens an antitrust action against the owner of another media outlet critical of her, says she can unilaterally order businesses to disinvest from a country and calls for federal punishment of individual businesses she doesn’t like?

— Offers to pardon those who commit crimes enforcing her policies, questions the authority of certain judges because they are GOP appointees and pardons a political ally who ignored court orders?

— Without congressional approval, establishes a de facto network of internment camps, run under inhumane conditions, for a class of people she disdains?

— And, finally, asks and coerces foreign governments to sabotage her Republican opponents’ campaigns?

Republicans have blessed all of this and more with their silence. They must now state their positions explicitly. If they vote to accept such conduct by this and, therefore, future presidents, the American experiment will be badly damaged. But if they aren’t at least forced to answer the question, it has already failed.

Monica Zelensky is going to bring Trump down.

Perfect.

It wasn’t about Rudy going to adopt some Ukrainian children?

It was about hitman Rudy “The Ghoul” being sent by Godfather Trump to find “dirt” on his enemy the chump. Biden.

More like Larry, Moe and Curly.

“LOCK THEM UP”

Savage caricatures. And good content.

Well, that explains it all, guess we can get back to work now.

The whole administration is a quagmire of stupid, venal, criminal, lying anal sphincters.

No better rendering of Rudy exists! Thanks, Rob.

That Is the best characterization of Rudy! I laugh every time I look at the picture.

You know the joke about where are you if you’re a former Illinois governor who hangs out with a lot of other former Illinois governors? (Joliet)

Where are you if you’re a former Time Person of the Year who hangs out a lot with another one? (The Oval Office, plotting your defense)
