Don't let the Impeachment Inquiry lull you into believing that that's all that's wrong with Trump's behavior. An Appellate Judge in New York denied a motion to dismiss Summer Zervos' defamation suit which means Trump could be under oath in court soon. Zervos is one of the many, many women who have accused Trump of sexual assault. [CNN]

Speaking of sexual assault, Jim Jordan is one of the Republican leads in the Impeachment. His sins at Ohio State University have followed him in the form of a television/van bankrolled by Republican activists [NBC]
We live blogged the Impeachment hearings all day today (and we'll be back for more. If you missed it here you go. Rather read some stories? Here's the morning and then here's the afternoon into evening. [WOT&PC] [Politico] [Politico]
What's the big deal about the delay in aid to Ukraine if Ukraine got it anyway? (Lots and lots of reasons why it's a big deal.) Maybe we should be asking why 35 million dollars of allocated aid is still sitting in the US. [Axios]

Trump didn't just screw over the Kurds when he pulled us out of Syria. Trump screwed up the whole Middle East and brought back ISIS. [Politico]
Remember how Trump is screwing up the trade war with China? He's screwing up real war too. He pissed off South Korea (again) by demanding that South Korea pay five times as much as they currently do for US military presence. This right when China and South Korea sign a defense agreement. [The Telegraph]
The House has passed a bill to delay a government shutdown. The Senate will pass it just in time. The White House claims to favor it but let's wait and see what Fox and Friends have to say that morning. [Politico]
Epstein's guards are being prosecuted. I'm sure this will stop all those pesky conspiracy theories. Was there a pizza parlor in the basement below Epstein's cell and what was Hillary Clinton doing there? (Note: We frown on conspiracy theories here.) [Reuters]

Politics Corner has a full dance card this week: We have three days of open Impeachment hearings and live blogs for each.
Tuesday morning is in the history books.
Gordon Sondland will be on the hot seat on Wednesday morning followed by Laura Cooper and David Hale.
Thursday morning Fiona Hill will be taking the questions. US Embassy in Ukraine Official David Holmes will also Testify.
But wait, there's more! Politics Corner will post early Tomorrow (Wednesday, November 20th) to live blog Tyler Perry's Democratic Presidential Debate at Tyler Perry's Studios. The Democrats have wisely scaled back the...what's that? They what?! Let's start over. The Democrats removed only ONE candidate since the last Debate and one candidate removed himself. So there will be ten candidates shouting over each other this time. At least the two NEW candidates can't qualify until at least December.
There will be regular Politics Corner threads every night except Wednesday when Tyler Perry Presents the Live Blog of Tyler Perry's Democratic Debate will replace the regular Politics Corner.
