                A Scott Adams tweet via Althouse: 
" How would it be possible for a Ukraine investigation into Biden to be good for Trump politically unless it was also the kind of thing that voters in the United States would care about?" 
"There were two potential outcomes of the requested Ukraine investigation on Biden. Either they would find nothing, or they would find behavior that voters in the United States need to know. Which of those two outcomes is the impeachable one?"

Why did the FBI etc take all the trouble to entrap, or whatever, the patriot Flynn, and destroy his life?  That's my question. Gen. Flynn has been a better American than any of those dirty SOBs who wanted a scalp, any scalp connected to Trump.
 
If Powell is doing this work pro bono, God bless her. I believe Flynn had to sell his house to cover legal defence over a year ago. The General is broke.

He is not a Conservative, more of a free-thinker (claims to be a Bernie guy) who does the news and loves to think outside the box. Engaging fellow, smarter than me, and relentlessly happy. Here's today's.   He might become a daily habit for me because he lights up my brain with cleverness and humor. Can find humor in anything, which is a good attitude.
 
Too bad he's on California time, because he'd be good with my morning coffees.

Even when Dems were for something just a few years ago in Obama times. Suddenly, the NYT and the Dems have pivoted towards hawkish in the Middle East. Suddenly, illegal immigration is desirable. Israel is now evil. Our  energy independence is bad.  And so on. You can fill in further examples in our comments. Here's the guiding principle, as best as I can tell:
