"If the President is essentially withholding military aid at the same time that he is trying to browbeat a foreign leader into doing something illicit that is providing dirt on his opponent during a presidential campaign, then that may be the only remedy that is coequal to the evil that conduct represents," the California Democrat told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union," stopping short of calling on Congress to immediately launch proceedings.

Entertaining to watch Red regurgitate tired old "nuclear fusion will save us" memes. 

Thing is, we HAVE nuclear fusion.  A successful reactor has been running for the past five billion years, about 93 million miles away, sending us all the energy we need.
You can collect it either by harvesting mechanical energy from the air currents the reactor sets in motion("wind," they call it, except in a musical with Lee Marvin) or by directly harvesting photons in either a thermal converter or a photovoltaic one.   

All that stands in the way of fully tapping into this fusion reactor is the retarded fuckery of small and sclerotic minds.

Yeah but if you have solar energy, how you gonna make money creating entire industries to deal with nuclear waste?

As a lifetime New Yorker who spent a significant part of the eighties in Manhattan and Brooklyn I have loathed Rudy Giuliani since I first covered a presser he did with Al ‘Senator pothole’ D’Amato when they went ‘undercover’ to buy crack. It was the most ludicrous thing I’d seen up to that point until 9/11 when he became ‘America’s Mayor’ for walking the streets and being visible... he had no choice. The Emergency Command Center was supposed to be in Brooklyn but Rudy insisted it be at WTC (which had been terrorist target previously) so it got blown up.

He’s always been an asshole... I hope the New York Bar nails a stake through the Nosferatu’s fucking heart and sends his ass off to purgatory.

A 2017 investigation by Politico found that Ukrainian officials not only publicly sought to undermine Trump by questioning his fitness for office, but also worked behind the scenes to secure a Clinton victory.

Wow!  That’s big. What if they invaded voting systems, stole info from the RNC and released it publicly to give the false impression of wrongdoing while conducting a massive disinformation campaign on social media platforms, and the Clinton campaign knew of these efforts while telling no one and actively tried to coordinate with these activities while Clinton herself lied to the American public about what she knows and claims to have no business dealings in the Ukraine when in fact she does.  This could be huge. Surely you’d want some people to go to jail for that, right kiidcarter8?
