    GOP Senators know Trump's claims about Biden in Ukraine are lies. Here's proof. In a 2016 hearing, numerous GOP Senators were briefed on the *Obama administration policy* of pursuing Shokin's ouster. There was zero controversy. I have new details here:

    I would have paid good money to watch Trump's handlers becoming aware of the "Kansas" tweet last night. They're at upscale SB parties. The game is over, the fun is winding down, everybody's not quite as drunk as they were at halftime, but still 1/4 in the bag.

    Today's my birthday! I've spent a decade hiding my age; for this birthday, I'm letting that go. I wrote about why. It might be the hardest thing I've ever written, but it feels good as hell to have done it.
