I mean this not at all in a mom-shamey way, but in an entirely jealous way, but dc2london your DD is like 4, right? How the hell does she let you watch and live blog this??? What’s your secret?? My kids riot about “mom shows” if they are on for more than 30 minutes. She's 3 haha. She actually likes to engage in interactive play more than my other two did but she is easy to please. We played "Princess hair salon" a lot today (as she requested) where she styled my hair or I styled hers while we watched CSPAN.

There was one time that you talked about bringing her to the hill with you for *hours* and I was like........we do not have similar 3 year olds 😂

She knows I'll get her a muffin at the House or Senate cafeteria (FWIW she prefers the Senate cafeteria), let her eat it while we wait for the hearing to start, then if she sits quietly during the hearing I'll pass her the occasional M&M or fruit snack or chocolate chip. I seriously have NO idea why or how she sits through legislative hearings. But I always sit on the aisle so we can bolt out of there if she gets noisy.

She may become President one day and it's because she's been doing the work since her toddler years. I love it.

Also she is the proud owner of a copy of Kamala's children's book that Kamala personally signed for her at our request so I feel like that sets her up well to be president

Today I had to play a matching game with DD2 for like 2 hours while I watched.

I feel ya, Bunny. My kids don't let me watch or do things either. I tried canvassing with them and after three houses, they sat down and refused to walk any farther. This is my kids. They are constitutionally unable to chill in any situation where it is actually required. And my 2 yo throws short, but epic, tantrums frequently.

So to sum up yesterday evening...
Sondland worked with Rudi, who got his marching orders from Trump, to create a plan to get Ukraine to publicly announce investigation into Burisma/Biden in exchange for freeing up aid.
Now, I am supposed to believe that:
Volker was not privy to the quid pro quo even tho he was ass deep in the deal, and he only now realizes there was something more to this than a simple "we in Ukraine hate corruption" statement - and that even when 2016 and Burisma came up, he was too stupid to realize the Biden of it all.
Furthermore, Morrison went to council after the July 26 phone call - not because anything alarmed him, just because council wasn't on the call and needed to be briefed, per Morrison - and yet he believes Vinman erred in speaking to this council because two of them didn't need to waste the lawyer's time, even tho they were two conversations, one more of a "here's a summary, no worries" (Morrison) and "THIS IS WRONG" (Vindman). And, Morrison could not be bothered to take notes of a phone call between Trump and the newly elected president of a US ally, who regularly receives large sums of aid, and is in a hot war with Russia, one of our biggest competitors on the world stage (despite the 45/Putin love fest)?
Does that about sum up the bonfire of stupidity that was their testimony?
