Rep. Jerry Nadler: "The president and the attorney general have systematically lied to the American people about what was in that [#Mueller] report. They've said no obstruction, no collusion, he was totally exonerated. All of those 3 statements are not true." pic.twitter.com/r6iVa2K4Rz

Mueller’s testimony would be consequential no matter what.
But it shouldn’t be make or break.
Shouldn’t be the first in months.
Shouldn’t be the last on the horizon.
This moment has taken on an urgency only because Speaker Pelosi has prevented the House from doing its duty.

President Trump on Boris Johnson: "They call him 'Britain Trump,' and people are saying that's a good thing. They like me over there. That's what they wanted. That's what they need." https://t.co/Ch1mMkQwO5 pic.twitter.com/1KumCBQbRd

"My worry about Boris Johnson is he seems to have inhaled his own legend before he's created it. He's shown levels of narcissism which worry me" — Peter Hennessy pic.twitter.com/66rM6gbCTi

A measure of #TheresaMay’s Premiership is that she has been PM for only 36 months! For most of us it feels like 36 years. A more unimaginative, life-sapping, dull & dishonest tenure could not be imagined. Destined to be a store detective in Wilko’s but ended up PM. Surreal. pic.twitter.com/9qdtNZLlUY

errrr… really?
Like President Trump, Boris Johnson is a larger-than-life populist who has focused on controlling immigration and restoring his nation's standing in the world. https://t.co/agcbt2P3Zv

When was the last time someone got Mitch McConnell to dance to a tune he didn’t set himself? It’s been years, but it happened today, and a construction worker and 9/11 responder from Long Island was at the center of it.https://t.co/d8vxMYHGQX

Something that got a little lost yesterday was Trump's endorsement of China's handling of demonstrations in Hong Kong–after pro-regime thugs beat people with iron bars. A Washpost editorial says Trump gave Xi Jinping license for more repression. https://t.co/EVzXybuzd7
