So an MLB umpire said he was gonna buy an AR-15 if Trump got impeached and lots of people agree.

I think these Mfers that would die for Trump getting into shootouts with cops and literally dying for Trump would be hilarious.
 
Dude said it would be nice if the people that I hire, hired people that like me. Cause I have no control over that.

Graham: I’m Not Saying Trump Is Totally Innocent, But Impeachment Is Still Bogus


Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) won’t exactly exonerate President Trump for his Ukraine quid pro quo, but that doesn’t mean he finds the House’s impeachment inquiry valid.

According to CNN, Graham expressed uncertainty over what will come out of the impeachment inquiry following a lunch at the White House Thursday.

“I don’t know what’s going to happen in terms of Ukraine,” Graham said, before airing his “own view about the letter” and railing against the House for its “dangerous” approach to the investigation.

“I’m not here to tell you that Donald Trump’s done nothing wrong,” Graham told CNN. “I’m not here to tell you anything other than that the way they’re going about it is really dangerous for the country and we need to change course while we can in the House.”

Graham then reiterated the White House’s talking point of Trump being “hounded about things he didn’t do” as far back as when he began his presidency.

“He feels like it never ends and that when it comes to Donald Trump nobody really cares if he has a fair day in court but a handful of Republicans,” Graham told CNN.

However, Graham said that Trump “was in a good mood” during his lunch with a group of GOP senators Thursday. “He appreciated the lunch,” Graham said.

Graham made his latest remarks after House Republicans’ stunt of storming the impeachment inquiry testimony of top Pentagon official Laura Cooper and career diplomat Bill Taylor’s explosive testimony that undercuts Trump’s vehement quid pro quo denials.

Earlier this week, Graham called Trump an “equal opportunity abuser of people”despite how he made a “conscious decision” to help the President “where I can.”

Pence Won’t Say If He Knew Of Trump’s Deal With Ukraine Described By Diplomats

Vice President Mike Pence refused to say on Sunday whether he knew of the deal between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that top diplomats had described in their testimonies in the House impeachment investigation.



CBS News anchor Margaret Brennan asked Pence no less than four times if he was aware that, according to the diplomats, Trump was dangled nearly $400 million in military aid to Ukraine and a White House meeting in exchange for the Ukrainian government opening investigations in 2020 candidate Joe Biden and the DNC’s server in Ukraine.

Pence refused to answer each time.

“Well, I can only tell you what I know,” he told Brennan when she first asked. “And what I know is that the transcript of the President’s call with President Zelensky shows that there was no quid pro quo. He did nothing wrong.”

“But were you aware of that deal that they are giving details of and sworn under oath existed?” Brennan asked.

“I can also tell you that all of my interactions with President Zelensky, we focused entirely on President Zelensky’s agenda to bring about reforms to end corruption in Ukraine and to bring together the European community to provide greater support for Ukraine,” Pence responded, ignoring her question and repeating Trump’s defense that Zelensky said he did not feel pressured to submit to Trump’s demands.

The CBS host tried again: “But did you have the knowledge of the deal that these U.S. officials have described under oath?”

Pence barreled over her with claims that his “interaction on this issue” with Trump and Zelensky focused on Russia’s invasion of Crimea, corruption, and the need for European countries to “step up.”

“I haven’t gotten a clear answer on that from you on that though, sir,” Brennan commented before making one last attempt to get Pence to address the question.

“But are you saying that you did not ever hear of such a deal?” she asked. “Is that what I understand you’re describing?”

“I’m telling you that all of my interactions with the president, all of my conversations with President Zelensky, were entirely focused on issues of importance to the American people, ending corruption, enlisting more European support and supporting Ukraine in a way that would restore its territorial integrity and stand by Ukraine for its sovereignty,” the vice president replied
