Not getting as much attention as it might deserve: high-ranking Hungarian officials seemingly meeting with Boris Johnson this morning (same building, same time – it's a *very* small world). All BJ needs is one EU country to veto an Article 50 extension… https://t.co/sxlOwEfKXp

"Why do you keep having a go at Boris Johnson? We just want Brexit done!"

Indeed. Being reminded that Boris Johnson is a shameless liar without a single scruple would mean having to consider that the Brexit dream he sold you was a total con.#bbcqtpic.twitter.com/UlGkTlWwpD

For anyone on fence about impeachment, Trump’s request to China should settle it:to protect the sanctity of elections from foreign interference&have a President who doesn’t break the law,impeachment is necessary

Pence knew exactly what he was doing.

I looked at the timeline.

Giuliani repeatedly said *in public* that he wanted Ukraine to investigate Biden for Trump — well in *advance* of Pence nixing trip to Ukraine and telling Zelensky aid wasn't happening:https://t.co/ZcoxgA2Mt7
