Canadian CEO suggests Trump is responsible for the death of his employee and family on that airliner shot down by the government of Iran.

Kinda like you take your family to visit a known violent criminal and as you are leaving he shoots you and your family in the back as you are leaving because it’s dark outside and on the TV, the news says the police are looking for him. Your friends blame the police and the maker of the guns the police carry.

No mention of the thousands of families that lost loved ones to the brutal terrorist that was killed, and takes over the company twitter account for his rant, because McCain “felt the tragedy warranted his response.”

...but the narcissist is in Washington? :headscratch

I wonder if the Iranians purposely shot the airliner down expecting a response from the US and were going to blame the United States for shooting it down. Then when Trump didn't ok a response, the Iranians were caught with their pants down.
In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

NYT says video shows two missiles hitting the plane about 30 seconds apart. Why the plane had time to turn around as initially reported.

You need two missiles to shoot down a cruise missile?

Van Jones- nothing I saw at the debate would be able to take out Trump in 2020.

It will be Michelle or Hillary or both in 2020.

Pelosi introduces House Impeachment Managers, same old two weird guys, Nader and Schiff plus some 10 minutes of fame people.

House votes to send articles of impeachment TODAY.

Wonder if from now on, if the House is one party and the President is another, this will be the norm?

Trump officially impeached yesterday with an official walk from one side to the other with the documents. Apparently some new Representative from Houston is one of the 8 impeachment managers. Took Gene Greens spot.

Trump signed the China trade deal while the autographed gold Pelosi pen Impeachment signing paper walk took place. Note an angry African American woman heads the March carrying the papers.

Illegal immigrant crossings fall 78% and once overcrowded cells are empty
First is daily apprehensions, a number that hit 4,600 at the height of the latest crisis in May. That has now dropped to 1,300.
What’s more, he [U.S. Customs and Border Protection commissioner Mark A. Morgan] said, the 21-daily average is below 1,000, a 78% cut. “That’s a dramatic reduction,” he said, in updating the numbers released last week.



Then there are the numbers of illegal immigrants “in custody.” That was a horrific 20,000 in May for an agency that has just 4,000 beds.
Now a quarter of those beds are unused.



Noting that Congress has done little to change outdated immigration laws, he said that Trump took action and built relationships with Mexico and other Central American nations that now hold immigrants seeking to come into the U.S. until the government gives them the green light.
