Perhaps Donald Trump has done something that’s ground for impeachment, maybe he hasn’t. I don’t know and nor do you.
One thing’s for certain, our generation’s Woodward and Bernstein are unlikely to be currently writing listicles for Buzzfeed.
A report in BuzzFeed alleges that Donald Trump instructed his former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen to mislead Congress about his plans to build a Trump Tower in Moscow, a claim that has been denied by Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani.
Got any documents or other evidence to support that then?
The latest developments have stunned the political class in Washington D.C and provoked broad agreement that this is one of the biggest and most damaging news stories for Trump since Mueller’s investigation began.
Well, that’s not a high hurdle to leap, is it? Meuller has been dry-humping this investigation for longer than some of Trump’s marriages and has so far failed to find a smoking gun, or even a gun that’s recently given up smoking and is now weaning itself off vaping.
In a story attributing its reporting to two unnamed law enforcement officials, BuzzFeed reported late on Thursday night local time that Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress about the Trump Tower Moscow negotiations.
The authors of the story have broken some of the most significant stories on the Trump-Russia beat, and their reporting has later been backed up by the courts.
Right, and those stories amounted to what, exactly? Excuse our cynicism but the Russia collusion story hasn’t rocked the world yet has it?
If the BuzzFeed story is correct, we are not only at another level, we are at impeachment.
The word “if” seems to be doing all the hard work there.
Bill’s Opinion
Trump may be guilty of something illegal.
Evidence would be nice though. You know, how investigative journalism used to work.
UPDATE: The impeachment excitement barely lasted half a day this time before being extinguished.
Is there a single journalist alive today who can describe the meaning of “confirmation bias”? Anyone?
Wake up. Shake sleep from eyes. Drink coffee. Nibble biscuit. Read in newspaper of explosive new evidence against Trump that hasn’t before surfaced during the 2 years of presidency nor 1 year of campaign. Read that Trump will be impeached/imprisoned by week’s end. Yawn. Have shower. Get dressed. Go to work.
This is not a typical morning for me. It is EVERY morning.
Have you enjoyed this yet?

This is a thing of beauty, if they gave out Pulitzer’s for for witty barbs this one should be in the running, but I wouldn’t want to taint you with a prize that useful idiot Duranty won.
Thanks, much appreciate.
Did you know that Durranty’s Pulitzer still stands?
