Bravo to @SecPompeo for his clarity on @foxandfriends . No apologies. No regrets. Astonishing that some in the American political elite are forgetting that Solemeini was a war criminal, the man who directed Assad’s genocide. @realDonaldTrump acted and what he did was righteous.

Professor Karlan’s non-apology (the what-about-the-president-not-apologizing part) just dug the hole deeper, igniting a third, fourth and fifth round of scrutiny and guaranteeing her long career will be remembered for an outburst of metaphorically bared teeth and snarling eyes.

70K OD deaths in U.S. last year. Say 1/2 were using drugs from Mexico. Say 1/10 of those drugs entered via non port-of-entry illegal shipment over the border. That’s 3500 dead Americans on low ball numbers. What body count is it going to take to make this a non-political issue?

This isn’t a debate, or an argument. It’s a fact: @chuckschumer closed the government b/c he would not allow $5 billion of the $4 trillion the federal govt spends annually to be spent on border barriers. It’s an absurd, political stunt. By @chuckschumer . It is his shutdown.

This is the Democratic Party's doing, and their campaign platform is a promise of more and more of the mob. Hoping the video shows up in ads across the country. This has to be not merely defeated but utterly repudiated.

Pretty wild scene as anti-Kavanaugh protesters push past a police line and are now at the doors of the Supreme Court -->

"Send her back" is a nativist, terrible chant. Also electoral suicide. There're more than 400,000 naturalized residents in PA, w/ 200,000 more in Michigan. @realdonaldTrump won PA by and MI by 11K, PA by 44K. #VoteHerOut --fine. #SendHerBack --nativist. Catholics, btw, remember.

There is furious blowback growing against participants in this McCarthyite smear of #JudgeKavanaugh . Talk radio beats the #BlueBubbles here. We hear from people across the country, this morning limited to women, and all of them are furious and disgusted. All of them v. Ds.

So much news and info in Dr. Fauci interview. I hesitate to point to one thing but his clear indeed adamant statement that CDC testing delay was nobody’s fault and certainly not the fault of @realDonaldTrump is probably the key headline.

Just now @bensasse declined to rule out impeachment and removal of President Trump, instead reserving judgment as to what would be in the best interests of the Constitution long term. He also believes the Republican National Committee to be deeply broken.
