  1. The President is being dishonest? Are his lips moving?

  2. We groundlings can point out that this is obvious and a huge understatement. But this is a Congressional leader who’s in a position to know calling the president of the United States a liar about a matter of life, death, and international relations. It’s like asking a loudmouth in a bar to step outside if he wants to do something about it, a challenge and an expression of contempt. I also think he’s saying they don’t intend to let this one go. I read somewhere recently that we could certainly sanction MBS appropriately without some huge economic sacrifice, and that Trump isn’t protecting him, he’s protecting himself. There’s always a reason for it when he does something sickening like this.

  4. Schiff says Trump’s modus operandi “cannot be the guiding principle behind our foreign policy.”

    Someone should ask him what is.
