That official White House X-account is really something. The utter shamelessness combined with the harrowing inhumanity would make Goebbels blush.

At the same time it is so honest and clear about the Trump administration's perspective on things it's refreshing. They don't hold back, there is no secret agenda, they just put it all out in the open for the Americans and the whole world to see. They really feel invincible.

Would be shame if someone used it as evidence in a contempt hearing or impeachment trial.

The people will have a trial if the lawyers cannot.

And if Gotham wasn't so fucking corrupt, that wouldn't of had to happen. Now it's a better city for it.

I think that judges have had enough. Boasberg of DDC has already released a criminal contempt order and by the looks of it, Xinis of Maryland district is also getting pretty pissed.

The question, though, is what the judiciary is going to do with these seemingly inevitable contempt rulings. Let's just say I'm not terribly excited about the prospect of fines unless that's just the opening salvo.
