Sooooooooo................ Barr met privately with Murdoch amid impeachment scrutiny: report BY MARTY JOHNSON - 10/10/19 05:33 PM EDT Attorney General William Barr met privately Wednesday night with Rupert Murdoch, the media giant and known confidant of President Trump, at Murdoch's home in New York, The New York Times reported on Thursday. It is unclear what the two discussed, as aides of both men declined to speak with the Times. The move comes amid House Democrats' impeachment inquiry into Trump over his interactions with Ukraine, matters with which Barr played an integral role. ** Barr has also contacted multiple foreign governments asking them for assistance into the Justice Department's probe into the origins of the Russian interference investigation. ** thehill.com/homenews/media/465299-barr-met-privately-with-murdoch-amid-impeachment-scrutiny-reportOh Trump is flat PISSED at fox news, which absolutely delights me! www.bostonherald.com/2019/10/10/trump-blasts-fox-news-after-poll-shows-majority-support-for-impeachment/Trump took to Twitter Thursday to blast the news outlet, saying, “From the day I announced I was running for President, I have NEVER had a good @foxnews Poll. Whoever their Pollster is, they suck. But @foxnews is also much different than it used to be in the good old days.” He railed on several of the network’s talking heads, including anchor Shepard Smith, retired Judge Andrew Napolitano and contributor Donna Brazile, before saying Fox News “doesn’t deliver for US anymore. It is so different than it used to be. Oh well, I’m President!” and later commending the hard-right One America News Network. Frankly, I think pissing off fox is one of the best things he could possibly do for the good of the nation.

The chairmen of three House committees leading the impeachment probe said in a statement this afternoon that the Trump administration tried to block former US ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch's testimony today. “Last night, the Committees learned that the State Department, at the direction of the White House, directed Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch not to appear for her voluntary interview today," the chairmen said. The chairmen — Reps. Adam Schiff, Elijah Cummings and Eliot Engel — called the attempt to block Yovanovitch from testifying "the latest example of the Administration’s efforts to conceal the facts" and "obstruct" the impeachment inquiry. After the administration tried to stop Yovanovitch from appearing, the House Intelligence Committee issued a subpoena to compel her testimony this morning. "As is required of her, the Ambassador is now complying with the subpoena and answering questions from both Democratic and Republican Members and staff," the chairmen said. www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/impeachment-inquiry-10-11-19/index.html

I’m having some difficulty keeping up with everything Trump, Brexit, Turkey, related without spending all day online. My friend recommended Heather Cox Richardson’s FB page for very clear summaries of the daily Trump shitshow. www.facebook.com/heathercoxrichardson/OMG I just discovered her -- she's wonderful. My best friend just started a PhD program at BU and Heather Cox Richardson is going to be her thesis advisor. My friend has been linking to her FB posts for the past week, and I love them.
