When he said “no quid pro quo” and released the aid, Trump knew “the whistle-blower had accused him of wrongdoing in withholding the aid and in his campaign to pressure Ukraine’s new president to conduct investigations that could benefit” his re-election. https://t.co/jEO1EchOUW

Ah the war on Xmas has now opened a Second Front against Thanksgiving, presumably because giving thanks is so un-PC. How long before an entirely new theater of operations is launched against Easter? It’s like a world war on holidays and only Trump can deliver total victory. https://t.co/iRs0GMdot3

Almost a clean sweep of the front pages in the morning for the @afneil interview with @jeremycorbyn – only pesky Daily Star swerved it I gather. Political interviews really matter and make a difference.

This has to be the product of subtle nudges & changes within government policy circles. This is not off-the-cuff.
