Well, that's one way to screw the Kings even more.  Now Blake has to make the correct choice that isn't going to get criticized for the next 5 years.  

Blake with the safe choice Turcotte

Byram to Colorado. Hmmph.

Dach off the board to Chitown

Nancy in full delay mode. It's bad enough one party has completely sold out...

We're in DC for the next couple days. I'm astounded by all the MAGA hats ... worn by boys who look to be elementary and middle school aged.

I didn't know Trump was so popular with little boys.

My son did his middle school DC trip last year. A bunch of the other boys wore MAGA hats. He thought they were trying to be edgy. 

I get the feeling ignoring Congressional subpoenas is going to be routine in our new dysfunctional existence.

It’s also illegal to ignore a subpoena.  Which doesn’t need to be proved.  He’s doing it. 

I'm not sure that'd get much traction

for those advocating impeachment, what would the charges be? has to be high crimes, misdemeanors, or treason.

Obstruction of justice would seem the easiest to prove.

I don't think I've spoken to any Righty  who agrees with:

Abortion after birth

Medicare 4 all

We're doomed in 12 yrs because of global warming

Free college for everybody!

Checks for $1000 for everybody.

Open borders.

It's still a two-party system.

The correlation between what each party promises its respective base and the subsequent actions of the parties is at best extremely tenuous.

Geoff, you are incredibly disingenuous. 

If he is, he is really going out of his way to be so.

Ive completely given up on the idea that “leftists” and “liberals” will ever coalesce.  The 2 party system is unworkable in the mass information environment.  Something eventually is going to have to give. 

I wasn’t a fan of the two party system until we switched to a one party system.

Pelosi is a worthless, spineless piece of garbage but impeachment is a dead end. 

She has demonstrated over and over to be complicit with the corrupt administration.

Before the Watergate scandal, Teapot Dome was regarded as the "greatest and most sensational scandal in the history of American politics".^[1] It damaged the reputation of the Harding administration, which was already severely diminished by its controversial handling of the Great Railroad Strike of 1922 and Harding's veto of the Bonus Bill in 1922.^[2] Congress subsequently passed legislation, enduring to this day, giving subpœna power to House and Senate for review of tax records of any US citizen without regard to elected or appointed position, nor subject to White House interference.^[3]

Grant's Whiskey Ring probably was probably worse.  Maybe the corrupt bargain.

Helpful as always.  Isn't it time for bed?

Nope. No complicity here by the  "opposition"

“Based on what we have seen to date, going forward on impeachment is not worthwhile at this point. Very frankly, there is an election in 18 months and the American people will make a judgement,” House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer told @DanaBashCNN .

He's a president with a mob boss mentality that appeals to some pretty awful qualities in many people and benefits from a seemingly incompetent and unpalatable (to many) opposition.

It's pretty clear that he obstructed justice to me.

Furthermore, AG Barr is a bald-faced liar.

Well that about sums it up,

And yes

Here is another name that the Kings probably should look at.  Although I might agree on the overrated part.  But I think better than McLellan.

NHL Rumors: Toronto Maple Leafs – Nazem Kadri And Mike Babcock’s Future In Doubt?

The Kings couldn't overpay Babcock enough to tackle this dumpster fire.

Even though the Leafs are playing as well as they have in many years, since at least the early 2000s?

Supposed tension between Babcock and the Toronto GM. But swallowing the four remaining years on the contract would be difficult, even for Toronto.

so anything official yet?

Todd McLellan, in Buffalo to watch son Tyson in the Frozen Four, will have meetings with Jason Botterill and the Sabres. He met with LA’s Luc Robitaille in Vancouver on Monday.
