Well, last night's news was that when Adam Schiff, in yet another speech that will be cited as a monument of greatness for as long as American democracy exists, cited a news report that one of Trump's henchmen said that Repubican Senators who didn't vote to let Trump off would have their heads on a pike that Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski and the other phony "moderate" Republicans were SHOCKED! and indignant that he would point out that was exactly what you'd expect from a monarch.
Now, this is all an act on the part of Susan and Lisa and Mitt and Cory in which anything and everything will be grasped on to as an excuse when they do what everyone knows they want to do, let Donald Trump get away with whatever crime he wants to commit, so that's about as surprising as a second ticking on a clock. And it's also unsurprising that NPR, PBS, CNN, etc. will echo the talking points against the spectacularly good and competent and honest job the House Managers have done under the impediments that Trump and his rent-boy, Mitch McConnell have put in their way. The corporate media are an integral part of this corruption, from FOX to CNN, NPR, The Nazional Review and The NYT. And the pathetic excuse for a left media will probably carp at Schiff, Nadler, Pelosi, etc. as well. The Nation will probably have the owner's hubby carrying Putin's water, The Young Turks and The Majority Report and the rest of the Bernie Bot bullshit media will attack "the Dems" as well. I wouldn't be surprised if Cenk and Ana, Sam and Michael aren't attacking Nadler and Schiff for the same things that Susan Collins sent up a note to the teacher to tattle about before next week is over.
The corruption that got us deep in Trump is too big to have been just the Republicans in the Senate and House and on the Courts, the media was what got us them, the corporate media that sold them, the play-lefty media that supported the Greens and Bernie Sanders, attacking the one and only person who stood between us and Trump, in the end. And they're set up to do it all over again this year.
