The political theater continues:
- “Giuliani says documents (files on the Bidens) to be released ‘if I disappear’ ” (Bloomberg).
- “President Donald Trump dismissed House Democrats’ decision to launch an impeachment inquiry as ‘witch hunt garbage’ ... “ (USA Today).
- “Democrats on this committee read out a purely fictitious rendition of the president’s phone call” (Devin Nunes).
- “People don’t want to be informed. They want to feel informed” (Roger Ailes).
This has been the long-term strategy of conservative leadership since Mr. Ailes started his “everything wrong in your life today is a result of the Democrats and liberals” meme.
Echoed by conservative talk radio and the GOP, this scapegoating was strong enough to turn the frustration with, and hatred of, government into the election of Donald Trump; thus dousing the “light upon the hill.”
There is now a sinister aura of darkness shrouding all of Mr. Trump’s present actions. Christian scripture states, “But men loved the darkness rather than the Light, because their deeds were evil” (John 3:19).
The light of truth in the Ukraine affair was revealed by professional diplomats and military professionals during two weeks of House testimony.
Will evil men prevail, or will American eyes be opened by the light of truth and support impeachment?

Be afwaid, be vewy afwaid.....pwesident Twump mwust bwe impweached...Jwan Dwickey inswists.
Imbus, you and Myles have an excuse for everything concerning your beloved republican party. A little research, however, debunks most all of it.
I see Don Edwards makes a lot of ignorant assumptions here. I don't have a "beloved Republican party," as I'm not a Registered Republican!
He has a serious case of TDS.
Tom Imbus, If your are not a registered republican, you should be. If you would do a little research, you would see that my assumptions are true.
Let those who be without sin cast the first stone.
Lies, innuendo and hate for this President have failed to bring him down. Trump 2020
I'm hoping that lies, innuendo, and hatred BY this president will succeed in bringing him down.
Oh so true, John! And nowhere was this contrast of light vs. darkness more pronounced I thought than in the impeachment hearings where one dignified, calm state department after another gave us the clarify of non-conflicting facts vs. the slimy, conspiracy theorizing of the Nunes/Jordan monologues.
Another contrast is the hours long testimony of all those subpoena'd by the committees investigating Bengazi, including Hillary herself, plus all of the documents, and then all of the Republicans who refused to answer the subpoenas and testify. Lightness....darkness.
When has the MSM ever told the truth to the American people?
Trump has managed one single piece of legislation, his tax break for the wealthy and corporations. The rest of his accomplishments are standard republican playbook: grotesque military expenditures (where is my peace dividend? Why do we need to spend a trillion a year on the Pentagon?), eliminating environmental regulation (air quality is rapidly diminishing, 9,500 additional deaths since 2016; look it up, losers; and you old people who post here, Greg, Tom, Frances, you're the ones who are most susceptible); slashing the safety net, several million about to be kicked off food support. And those Trump election promises of better healthcare cheaper? No, stupid, you get worse healthcare more expensively. Boost in manufacturing jobs? Haha, stupid chump. Higher taxes on the wealthy (yes, that was a Trump campaign promise), and I don't need to tell you how that worked out. Every day I come here and give you the truth, Greg, Frances, Tom and Myles. And every day you ignore the facts and wallow in your stupid. Pathetic.
mama always says stupid is as stupid does.... exactly how proud are you that you are smarter than most ?
Yes, s.j., you bring the distorted socialist view of alleged truth. Our own little high school communist.
The truly terrifying part, S.J., is that Greg, Francis, Tom, & Myles had rather destroy the constitution than admit trump is corrupt.
Long list of Trump accomplishments as of 3/2019 for your enlightenment, sj. Imagine what we could have done on infrastructure, healthcare, prescription drug prices, etc. if the House had worked with the Senate and the Administration rather than waste time and taxpayer dollars on the effort to overturn the election results in any way possible.
