Everyone's asking where the Impeachment will go next. Here's a couple guesses from Politico and Vox or you could just randomly click on any major news site and your bound to hit another piece written by someone who thinks they know what will happen. [Politico] [Vox]

The Trump White House is full of people who no longer want to work there but can't quit because they need the unemployment check because no one will hire them. How do I know this? Trump was allowed to ramble on for almost an hour on a call to Fox and Friends. He made random attacks, spread conspiracy theories and confessed to everything he is being impeached for and not one person cut him off. [Business Insider]


Trump Administration no longer cares about looking guilty and will likely cast out Vindman and Taylor. Mulvaney should be worried. (Pompeo may flee to the Senate) [CNN]


Republican Senators and the White House are strategizing ahead of a likely Trial. Don't expect it to be fair. Republicans are very bitter that Schiff enforced the rules. [NPR]

We have so many guns and so much ammo that there's plenty available for a thirteen year old kid to try to shoot up a school. This time the kid was stopped. [CNN]


Indiana University confuses itself for a branch of the federal government. Refuses to fire a Professor for being a bigot. Someone in the PoliSci department should let them know that the First Amendment does not require you to give a paycheck to someone who works to harm students of color, women and LGBTQetc. people. He can say what ever he wants but not at the expense of the University or its students. [NBC}


And while we're there: the Trump Administration has been much worse for LGBTQetc. rights than you suspected. Here's an accounting. [ProPublica]
