I've heard some chatter that the White House fed Gowdy questions when the House Oversight Committee grilled Rosenstein under oath. Has anyone else heard this? Just twitter nonsense? Yes, there are allegations to this effect, but it doesn't appear that Gowdy actually asked those questions

I was coming out of a NyQuil fog but seeing Rep Schiff's tweet on my alerts woke me right up.
Your move, Speaker Ryan

Fuck Engler. I don't understand wtf the board was thinking making him interim president. He was a terrible governor.
I'm pretty much done with MSU. We're moving to Ann arbor this spring anyway so I might as well convert to a wolverine, right? Things I never thought I'd say.

A bright spot: “San Francisco will retroactively apply California’s marijuana-legalization laws to past criminal cases, District Attorney George Gascón said Wednesday — expunging or reducing misdemeanor and felony convictions going back decades. The district attorney said his office will dismiss and seal more than 3,000 misdemeanor marijuana convictions in San Francisco dating back to 1975. Prosecutors will also review and, if necessary, re-sentence 4,940 felony marijuana cases, Gascón said.“ m.sfgate.com/news/article/SF-will-wipe-thousands-of-marijuana-convictions-12540550.phpThis is great and it needs to be the norm.

I'm a bit overwhelmed by everything posted since I went to bed. Shit. This news cycle is so crazy. If I don't check the news/Twitter for a few hours I feel totally lost.

I’d be more upset about the Nunes news if I thought anyone in Republican leadership would do anything about it. But they won’t, they’ll release it anyway and it won’t matter what anyone else says to counteract it (or what solid evidence it’s bullshit exists), Trumps base will take it and run with it and use it as an excuse to stop the investigations.
Clearly I am feeling very cynical this morning. Time for baby snuggles to help me feel better.
Edited for spelling fails.

Right? I’m hoping other places in CA follow suit and then it becomes the norm when a state legalizes. We spend too much money prosecuting these b.s. charges. Not to mention that the arrests and convictions are disproportionately African Americans.

If Trump releases that memo, I think shit is going to hit the fan very, very soon. In a variety of ways.
Since it's pretty apparent that he will, I am ready for shit to hit the fan.

With so much going on, these aren't making huge headlines, but DT has slashed (practically to the point of gutting) clean energy research funding and the EPA has blocked clean water legislation.

He mangled the public schools in Michigan by basically declaring war on them. It was awful. And who was right there pushing the "school choice" agenda? The DeVos family.

And if you google the guy that @heartbot has in her tweet there is a quote from the head of an anti immigration group going on about marriage fraud. The man in question has been dating his wife since 2010, got married in 2016 and they have a 5 year old son. All indicators absolutely point to marriage fraud 🙄🙄🙄

Sexual harassment in my small corner of the world. I shared on FB: I’ve been asked out, ogled, followed into the stacks and touched, given gifts of a romantic/sexual nature, and even had someone attempt to lure me to his car and another to his “secluded” home. We may joke about it and give you nicknames like “creepy descriptor guy”, but it’s not ok. Why is that so hard to understand? www.shondaland.com/act/a15876574/timesup-on-harassing-your-public-librarian/

SHS says Trump offered a bipartisan solution for Dems w/ the SOTU: either do what we want or you hate America. I was trying to find a gif with Bertram from Jessie doing the 'its so far' reach thing. But I can't. He BARELY looked at the dems but whatever.

Glad to see there's at least one Republican with some sense and concern for nat'l security. My prediction: the WH will release/leak it anyway.
