WTF is wrong with everyone? If this is how Bernie is going to run his campaign in the general election, good luck.

Washington (CNN)The Department of Justice revealed in a court filing late Friday that it has two dozen emails related to the President Donald Trump's involvement in the withholding of millions in security assistance to Ukraine -- a disclosure that came just hours after the Senate voted against subpoenaing additional documents and witnesses in Trump's impeachment trial, paving the way for his acquittal.

The filing, released near midnight Friday, marks the first official acknowledgment from the Trump administration that emails about the President's thinking related to the aid exist, and that he was directly involved in asking about and deciding on the aid as early as June. The administration is still blocking those emails from the public and has successfully kept them from Congress.

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib booed former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton at a Bernie Sanders event Friday in Iowa. She addressed the incident hours later, saying in a statement she let her "disappointment" with Clinton's recent comments about Sanders "get the best" of her.

Upon mentioning Clinton's remarks, Langford [Sanders Iowa 2020 chair] was interrupted by boos from the crowd. She responded: "We're not gonna boo ... we're classy here." That was when Tlaib interjected: "No, no, I'll boo."

We have a businessman in the White House who knows that the bottom line matters. Except, of course, when it doesn't. And in his way of doing business never did.

You would think there was someone among the Democrats who could raise that point and make it stick. Even if they they think the deficit doesn't "matter" in terms of being a current crisis point.

Using #dershowitzlogic it would he perfectly acceptable for a President to order the arrest of a pedophile sex trafficker, seize all his files, have him murdered, and then use the #kompromat obtained to blackmail the pedophile’s Harvard lawyer friend to argue it was all ok.

Also, earlier someone referred to Sanders as possibly being the Democrats' Trump. The Democrats' Trump is Bloomberg:

-New York billionaire
-Spotty record of party identification
-Self-financed campaign, buying way into primary with massive TV buys and little ground game
-Horrific record of behavior toward and statements about women
-Long history of racism, both in personal beliefs and in actions that actively hurt people of color
-Facile claims of being a fixer or problem solver

He's only being allowed in the debate to try and stop Sanders from possibly going three for three in Iowa, New Hampshire, and Nevada. I fully expect him to come out guns blazing against Sanders and ignore the other candidates. If he's criticized by Warren, Biden, et al, he'll probably ignore it. Stunning that the DNC thinks that changing the rules to give billionaires more representation is fully appropriate, but not people of color.
