@shannonrwatts What is getting in the power women's tea this week? "Don't mess with me when it comes to words like that," scolds Pelosi, on heels of Stanford professor schooling Collins, Fiona Hill schooling Nunez. More like this, ladies.

3/Sekulow: argues that Trump should know who whistleblower is, that person may have agenda, ulterior motive. That’s it folks, that’s the prez’s defense this morning.

This is enraging. @MayorOfLA what are you going to do about this? Reporter exercising 1st amendment right, doing dangerous and essential job, not disturbing police in their duties. Treated brutally, no respect - and arrested? I've been in war zones and treated better.

Somehow I was able to start a new video right away. You see my phone clatter to the ground and I start shouting “I’m a reporter...I’m with KPCC.” I scream for help from the TV reporters I know are around the corner doing their 11 p.m. live hits

2/Sekulow: the president was denied “due process” in the House. 10 minutes of gymnastics over why the “due process” offered was not appropriate, enough. concludes w admitting that president turned down Dems’ offer for to participate in own defense.

Let's take a moment & pay tribute to the genius of Marvin Gaye. 50 years today he released a masterpiece of poetry and prophecy, "What's Going On." Incredible, the music & lyrics are still fresh, potent, moving. An enduring gift from an artist who held up a mirror to our world.

On May 21, 1971, Marvin Gaye addressed addiction, police brutality, and ecological disaster in a landmark release: 50 years later, 'What’s Going On' is as relevant as ever. Tune in today as we celebrate a half-century of the classic release with a day of on air programming.

1/So let me boil down the impeachment defense by Jay Sekulow this am for you, save you some time: the White House refused to comply with subpoenas because the House never passed a general resolution to start impeachment inquiry. Last sentence notes this is based on “precedent.”
