Not from the Onion but from a WH source - "Hillary Clinton purposely lost the election with the aid of Russian hacking so the Democrats could then impeach Trump"— Brian J. Karem (@BrianKarem) December 18, 2019
we need to tax investment income as regular income for those making over a certain amount. the last 2-3 years I have made 30-50k per year just in investments. Get taxed $0 until I sell. The state taxes but long term gains for a while was free federally. I mean I make good money but I am not a millionaire nor did I grow up with a trust fund. But if my investment portfolio is going up 15-20% a year can’t imagine what people making millions. It’s a giant loop whole

"This President is so embittered that he will come out and spend the rest of his time in office getting even. That's what troubles us. What kind of President will he be?" - Former presidential adviser David Gergen on President Trump's reaction to impeachment pic.twitter.com/0eGPb77J9H— Anderson Cooper 360° (@AC360) December 19, 2019
Some Clowns should read this editorial... Is scatting... https://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/december-web-only/trump-should-be-removed-from-office.html But the facts in this instance are unambiguous: The president of the United States attempted to use his political power to coerce a foreign leader to harass and discredit one of the president’s political opponents. That is not only a violation of the Constitution; more importantly, it is profoundly immoral. The reason many are not shocked about this is that this president has dumbed down the idea of morality in his administration. He has hired and fired a number of people who are now convicted criminals. He himself has admitted to immoral actions in business and his relationship with women, about which he remains proud. His Twitter feed alone—with its habitual string of mischaracterizations, lies, and slanders—is a near perfect example of a human being who is morally lost and confused. Trump’s evangelical supporters have pointed to his Supreme Court nominees, his defense of religious liberty, and his stewardship of the economy, among other things, as achievements that justify their support of the president. We believe the impeachment hearings have made it absolutely clear, in a way the Mueller investigation did not, that President Trump has abused his authority for personal gain and betrayed his constitutional oath. The impeachment hearings have illuminated the president’s moral deficiencies for all to see. This damages the institution of the presidency, damages the reputation of our country, and damages both the spirit and the future of our people. None of the president’s positives can balance the moral and political danger we face under a leader of such grossly immoral character. This concern for the character of our national leader is not new in CT. In 1998, we wrote this: The President's failure to tell the truth—even when cornered—rips at the fabric of the nation. This is not a private affair. For above all, social intercourse is built on a presumption of trust: trust that the milk your grocer sells you is wholesome and pure; trust that the money you put in your bank can be taken out of the bank; trust that your babysitter, firefighters, clergy, and ambulance drivers will all do their best. And while politicians are notorious for breaking campaign promises, while in office they have a fundamental obligation to uphold our trust in them and to live by the law. And this: Unsavory dealings and immoral acts by the President and those close to him have rendered this administration morally unable to lead. Unfortunately, the words that we applied to Mr. Clinton 20 years ago apply almost perfectly to our current president. Whether Mr. Trump should be removed from office by the Senate or by popular vote next election—that is a matter of prudential judgment. That he should be removed, we believe, is not a matter of partisan loyalties but loyalty to the Creator of the Ten Commandments.

President Trump and Republicans campaigned hard on their 2017 tax bill helping working people.But a new analysis finds that two years later, more than 60% of the tax savings went to people in the top 20% of the income ladder. https://t.co/lGjkj6uaIJ— NPR Politics (@nprpolitics) December 20, 2019
