I'm not sure if it'll work for international people but it's worth a go

Thanks, Pain.

Sorry Yates not Yeats.

Thanks for the link Pain. That’s my evenings watching sorted. May need gin for this one!

This was posted yesterday:

Brian Fallon @brianefallon

Per @axios, WH plans to smear Sally Yates tomorrow as a "Democratic operative."
She was a nonpolitical, career DOJ attorney for two decades

Thanks from me, too. Pain.

I may have to watch it with my earbuds in. DH gets so angry over the 'badgering' that the GOP Reps give witnesses that I'm afraid he may blow an artery.

I want her evidence to be damning so much that I'm afraid of watching it and being disappointed. I know I won't be able to help myself though

Me too, Pain. I hope I'm wrong but I have a feeling that her testimony will have been 'screened' for anything treasonous by Scrotus or specific members of his regime, or that may reveal classified information. The most we're going to get is broad statements and hints. I don't think there will be 'names named'.

The White House feels that they need to 'push back' against something though.

Sorry. that they might need.............

I think it may be disappointing but I am hoping that the non-answers and no comments will be made because of ongoing investigations. More reading between the lines?

I think that that's a strong possibility.

Across I miss Obama and he wasn't my president. I loved the way he spoke of Michelle at the beginning. "I love my wife" It was so natural, a fact.

I listened and thought how SCROTUS would hate every word Obama said.

A bonus

I will be listening to Sally Yates if possible.
I've listened to Comey evade answers twice - will be good to hear someone else.

Lweji that SNL sketch was excellent

Comey didn't evade answers, I think it was fairly easy to read between the lines on a fair chunk of it.

The Latest: Obama said to have warned Trump about Flynn

Bad timing issues there trumpstain, this news breaking hours after you squarely place the blame at obama's feet.

A Frenchy responses to the trump's tweet about Yates:

jordan 🌹 @JordanUhl
NBD just the official government-run POTUS account trying to influence a witness' testimony.

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
Holy smokes! Now the president has engaged in felonious witness tampering using his official government account. Someone has to stop this.

Merriam-Webster @MerriamWebster
counsel: ⚖ a lawyer appointed to advise and represent in legal matters
council: 🙋an assembly or meeting for consultation or discussion

r/esist @redditresist
Replying to @MerriamWebster
Yes, Trump is dumb. We knew that. More importantly, POTUS was intimidating a witness that was about to speak against him & associates.

A few responses, not a Frenchy responses!

@RepSwalwell
I've long thought @realDonaldTrump was incompetent in vetting of Flynn & Russia ties. It's actually simpler than that: he just didn't care.

Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
Mr. President: You failed to vet Flynn, hired him, and only fired him once his lies became public. Which part of that is Obama's fault?

NBC News @NBCNews

Trump admin official confirms Obama raised issue of Flynn, but says it seemed like the remark was made “in jest”

He's just deleted his tweets about Sally Yates. Clearly some grappled his phone off him and pointed out how bloody stupid that was.

Oh no! I've found it. It looks like he just removed one where he spelt council instead of counsel, which is way some links to it went working any more. My mistake.

I was wondering what a Frenchy response might be, Pain, especially after Macron's win yesterday.

Zut alors!
