    Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior White House adviser, Jared Kushner, tried to persuade the publisher of the Washington Post to fire its
    editor over coverage of the Russia investigation, that editor, Marty
    Baron, writes in a new book.

    “With no delay and without pause during his four years as president,”
    Baron writes, “Trump and his team would go after the Post and everyone
    else in the media who didn’t bend to his wishes.

    “In December 2019, Kushner would lean on [Fred] Ryan to withdraw support
    for me and our Russia investigation.

    “… ‘He aims to get me fired,’ I told Ryan.”

    End quote.

    Fulfilling a campaign promise?

    Today's impeachment hearing was also an exercise in irony, what with
    Trump's valuation based his 'brand' way overshadowing Hunter's
    relatively modest worth.

    I'd like to see you riding a unicycle with those big floppy shoes
    while juggling five cream pies. Credit where it's due.

    I didn't see all of it. Did MTG get Hunter's nude pics up again?
