Thanks for the explanations about Hillary Bigly and Hedgehog. I did wonder if it was just because she was a woman but sounds like there's a bit more to it than that.

I'm learning so much from these threads. I guess at least that's something to thank Trump for.

Trump 2020 sets one-day record for digital fundraising, $314,000. Trump to use $$ to "fight the mainstream media and the forces against him" pic.twitter.com/pD0Mf0Ee0S

So I assume this means he is publicly fundraising to pay for his solicitors for the impeachment and such?

Thanks for those links, Ginger.

Trump's tweets reflect his state of mind?

Gah, the mobile site isn't letting me post so I've had to use the app for the first time and I don't understand the editing

I thought Flynn had been subpoenaed? Isn't it a criminal offence to not follow one, or did I imagine it?

To be fair, his security people may have vetoed the cable car ride.

cavemum there are legal ramifications to not responding. I think you can be held in contempt of court?

Joe Lieberman is an avid supporter of Betsy DeVos & has even been defending Trump the past few months. Hell no to Joe for FBI! #impeachtrump

I saw somewhere contempt of court is misd, but contempt of Congress is felony? One of the legal bods or media was tossing that around on twitter.

FLAG: Daily Beast reports that Trump is telling aides he hopes Flynn can come back to a post in the White House

"But Trump doesn’t just hope that Flynn will beat the rap. Several sources close to Flynn and to the administration tell The Daily Beast that Trump has expressed his hopes that a resolution of the FBI’s investigation in Flynn’s favor might allow Flynn to rejoin the White House in some capacity—a scenario some of Trump’s closest advisers in and outside the West Wing have assured him absolutely should not happen."

....beat the rap....

I wonder if that phrase was a quote?
