DL Open Thread: Wed., Nov. 13, 2019

‘Get Your Impeachment Hearing Scorecard Right Here!’.  Provided to you in the blandly-neutral manner NPR favors. My question: When do we see the staged Rethug theatrics?  When the facts aren’t on your side, time to give ’em the ol’ razzle dazzle. Here’s a less leggy preview of the first day, and what D’s need.

Carl Bernstein: America Is ‘In The Middle Of A Cold Civil War’.   Hadn’t heard it put that way before, but, you know, I think he’s correct.

Will The D’s ‘Impeachment Lite’ Strategy Work?  Maybe, but I agree it’s risky.  The sheer magnitude of Trump’s corruption is unrivaled in American politics. If he skates on this, there are no do-overs.

‘Credible Fear’ No Longer A Pathway To The US.  That’s the first step in seeking to enter the US. 97% used to meet that threshold. It’s now below 10%:

This unprecedented drop in approved interviews comes without any public regulations, directives or guidance about changes to what is known as the “credible fear” interview process. Would-be immigrants must pass the credible fear interview to present their asylum case in immigration court.

Dreamers Dreams Dashed?  Starting to look that way. Trump’s cruelty will likely meet judicial approval. Helps to have a fellow rapist on the Supreme Court.

Houston Astros Illegally Stole Signs To Win 2017 World Series.  Hey, the Patriots have been doing it for years…

Gordon Boondoggle Comes Home To Roost.  Looks like the best that NCC can do is to collateralize the loan through company stock, which could soon be worthless. Remember, folks, Mike Ramone was neck-deep in this scheme.
