I hate them for playing the long game so well and screwing us all over. How Gerrymandering and Voter Suppression Paved the Way for Abortion Bans www.motherjones.com/politics/2019/05/gerrymandering-voter-suppression-abortion-heartbeat-bills/"A 2016 analysis by Rewire News found that 22 states had passed new restrictions on both voting and abortion since the 2010 election, which pro-choice advocates don’t believe is a coincidence. Many of the constituencies that strongly support abortion rights—such as women, young people, and voters of color—are among the most likely to be impacted by tactics such as gerrymandering and voter suppression." Plus their focus on conservative (but also politically partisan) judges, which has been pretty successful. It's very depressing.

Nadler is not a happy man.
Also the RNC has given McGahns law firm somewhere around 4 million dollars.

I don't know why I thought McGahn might actually show up.

I just want somebody to restore a sliver of patriotism here.

he's no patriot. He cooperated bc he's smart enough to know that's the only way he avoids legal exposure.

I will admit I *am* annoyed that Nadler apparently has not read the "less redacted" Mueller report that is available to him. It seems like pointless digging in.

Collins is going to continue his practice of bitching about the last hearing, I see. They do this bc they know the facts and the law are not on their side.
Nadler, for what it's worth, looks like he's ready to slap Collins.

Congress is so interesting. Nadler and Collins just went to the mat but now they are talking and laughing together.

lord jesus they are bad at this. Seriously, FIRE. WEIDEFELD. They have to actually try to be this incompetent. And on this note, I am so scared for next week. There was a disabled car on the WW Bridge last night and my normal 25-30 minute drive to get DD2 was 70 minutes. I was like great, a preview of next Monday!
