Today, the House of Representatives votes on a resolution to make the next phase of the impeachment inquiry public. In the next month, we will see public hearings and hear from many of the same people who have been testifying in closed committee hearings about Donald Trump’s messy quid pro quo with Ukraine. Impeachment can be a lengthy process, and from where I sit, it seems like the House is moving at a steady, reasonable pace, no matter what Republicans are whining about.
Also happening today: “Conservative hawk” and national-security expert Tim Morrison will be testifying in a closed-door committee hearing about what he saw and heard during his tenure on Trump’s National Security Council. Morrison is a Russia expert and he’s got some sh-t to say. He wants to be able to speak freely, which is why he’s also resigning from the NSC as he testifies. It’s bonkers to me that Republicans are still trying to pretend like all of this is just some Democratic Party conspiracy or “sham” or whatever. Truly, the Republicans who actually worked in the White House and saw the way Trump operated up close are all appalled and heading for the exits, trying to save their own skin. Even John Bolton will be testifying against Trump before the month of November is over.
And finally, you know how a dog was injured during the Special Forces operation to kill Baghdadi? Well, the White House has invited the dog, Conan, to come to meet Trump at some point (even though he hates dogs). Conan has not come to the White House yet. But Trump still tweeted this:

It’s a Photoshopped image. Poorly ‘shopped by a conservative site. And Trump tweeted it out.
And @nytimes has a story out on this: https://t.co/EgMof9ktPO

Garbage dumpster. That’s all I can say about this s-show now. What else is there.
Truly, there’s nothing else to say. And don’t even get me started on Don Junior earnestly telling Sean Hannity he wishes he was Hunter Biden and could profit off his dad’s presidency.
Imagine how pissed elephant murderer Donald Jr is that his Biden equivalent’s name is Hunter…
And how insulting to Mr. McCloughan who actually got the medal for his service in Vietnam while that piece of garbage was having a bad bit of bone spurs. He’s insulting dogs and the vets he claim to love so much. I don’t get how anyone who’s in the army or loves someone in the army could support this breathing, walking orange trash.
I’m a combat vet and I loath him. This is so incredibly disrespectful to Medal of Honor recipients : /
I know he claims otherwise, but I believe he hates veterans. He’s jealous they get attention for their service and he’s not seen in the same light.
I’m also a vet and I haven’t met any other vets who support this idiot we have in the WH.
I have been authorized to speak on behalf of all dogs. They hate him, too, and just wanted to make that clear.
I suspect they do. Dogs are a good judge of character…and I’m guessing he’s been barked and snarled at a few times by good pups just protecting their beloved humans.
I hope the dog bites him. Or pees on his shoe. On camera.
I would pay a million dog biscuits for Conan to pee on #45’s leg. On camera.
Hehe, trump would pee himself if that happened. Unfortunately the poor dog would have to go into hiding when the maggats hunted him down and billy barr ordered an investigation of him.
No, This dog is a noble creature and would be much more well behaved in the white house than any of its current two-legged occupants.
Preach! My dog says that he would like to bite the man who has caused me so much stress. He also said that he heard that Trump has a nauseating odor of rotting pork. Makes sense.
Dump is pathetic.
I have to say, one of my new fav vids is this one that was posted in my Twitter feed yesterday. As we dog lovers, know: Dogs TOTALLY know sh!t when they see it! Check these two out:

I tweeted back that I’d like to shake their paws and buy ’em a bone!
That’s great!
My old cat used to stop what she was doing and watch whenever Hillary Clinton was on TV.
I hope if they bring that poor dog to the White House, it attacks him like the bald eagle did (with no repercussions for the dog of course).
The photoshopped dog photo is SO embarrassing.
I had to Google the bald eagle attack you referenced I forgot about that lol
What a great dog! He is so well trained at detecting a rabid animal that he can tell through the television.
Thank you for that uplifting post! I think that we can all agree that not only 2 legged creatures hate him, so do 2 legged ones as well.
In other disgusting news, I was appalled by the attacks placed upon Lt. Col. Vindman who is being attacked by the repuliCAN’TS labeling him as a never Trumpster and their vicious attempts to be him to disclose the identity of the whistleblower.
I don’t think I have been so embarrassed by the way that those up on Capital Hill are behaving. The republiCAN’TS love to tear people down should they disobey their loyalty to this Toddler-in-Chief. I hope they all burn in Hell.
LOL, this is actually kind of funny. It’s just so poorly done – that was the kind of photoshop quality I was churning out when I was a YOUNG teenager ahhaha.
I mean, it’s all completely disingenuous but compared to all of the other horrific things this man says and does, I can at least laugh at this one. Not laughing WITH, laughing AT.
I think with almost anyone else it would be cute and funny because it’s so poorly done. He just doesn’t engender any of those feelings in me or any other reasonable human because we know what a monster he is. Obama would have actually put a real medal on the real dog and we’d have great shots. This? This garbage is the best that they’ve got? H*ckin’ sad
Oh god, yes. And it’d have been ADORABLE if Obama did it. As it stands, it’s really just funny in a sad way, I guess?
Never Trumper now and forever.
Dogs probably cannot go near him as they can smell the drugs and decay seeping out of his pores and would likely react and alert.
He’s got his priorities set. He’s a fuckin joke!
The dog image is likely to counter how he repeatedly uses “dog” as a very negative term.
The daily distractions are becoming easier to tune out as more come forward to confirm what has *already been admitted* by Orange and Company.
The career people who are stepping forward to testify, even if it means resigning, deserve applause. The bigger figures, like Bolton and Mikey P, are likely going to hide out as long as they can. The real heroes are those who make far less, are not public figures and are willing to stand up for what is right.
Yes I agree
Definitely.
John Oliver did a funny bit about that canine that Trump calls a dog. Worth checking out.
My first response was “hey, this is the fake news they are alway complaining about”…not to take anything away from the amazing dog…
Does he know the dog is actually female? He hates females right?
Those dog’s eyes say everything, like who the heck is this guy and why does he want to strangle me with this blue thing.
Congrats to the Nationals on their win. And to the fans who were there for Game 5, you warmed my cold, black heart that evening and I so happy for you all.
If the Nats refuse to go to the WH that would be the topper.
Why doesn’t he just resign? I would respect him a whole lot more if he did that. He’s the textbook definition of a narcissist though so I’m sure he’s too arrogant to do that. It’s a shame and what baffles me if a Democrat did even remotely close to what Trump has done republicans would have a field day..not even day it would be a field decade where they would continually bring it up for all of history. Hypocrisy at its best.
Also, I loathe Lindsay Graham. My husband thought SC was beautiful and asked about relocating there. I’m like as long as Lindsay Graham is on Congress we’re going nowhere
Because the New York state investigation and subsequent charges are waiting for him. AG James is not messing around.
