If Joe Biden shot a man in Kiev just to watch him die, would getting Ukraine to prosecute him be a "personal political errand"? This national/personal distinction is in the eye of beholder and hinges on whether what Biden did was worthy of inquiry, no? (It was.) https://t.co/vzYbRSLT3E

Buried lede: "…acknowledgments by Ukrainian investigators that their Obama administration counterparts encouraged them to investigate Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort." So the Obama people can do it, but when Trump people do it it's "intereference" in our election. https://t.co/V5OvxZrTII

Remember, Hunter Biden might be a witness at any Senate trial. Could this come up? Well, his credibility will be an issue and he initially denied sexual relations … https://t.co/blzeuEEU4z

.@RobertWrighter on why Hunter Biden was paid so much by Burisma: "I know what he was getting paid for. He was getting paid in the hope that he could somehow get [V.P.] Biden to do something-or-other." OK! And that's a guy DEFENDING Biden. … [at 21:37] https://t.co/Lfx6tSkU7J

This is the DEMOCRATIC author of the bill, Zoe Lofgren:
" …. wages are expected to increase by another seven to eight percent next year. Under this bill, those wage increases won’t happen."
Kind of makes the "cheap labor" aspect of this more-visa-workers bill explicit, no? https://t.co/cbBxraMqL6

Assignment Desk: BATTLE OF THE GOP GHOSTS: Who is actually writing all these fabulous, deep speeches for the post-Trump GOP presidential contenders (eg Rubio, Hawley)? Why not cut out the middlemen and have the ghostwriters debate? https://t.co/cULg84ff2D

YES, THERE"S AMNESTY! "There’s More to Life Than Liberty and Robbery" Sorry. I don't care if smart people write thoughtful speeches for Rubio. He will end up promoting more wage-reducing immigration. Maybe if he started with an apology tour for Gang of 8. https://t.co/mkuoa0ZvkK

On the other hand, going through two official bureaucracies, one of them [Ukraine] famously corrupt, sounds like a recipe for nothing happening–i.e. no investigation. https://t.co/B1Zu3Sck5T

One puzzle: Does anyone think "Ukraine's investigating Biden!" would be such a devastating attack line in 2020 (compared with "Biden's son took hundreds of thousands of dollars from a corrupt gas company for … what?")? Do voters have so much respect for Ukraine's probity? https://t.co/tg5HdoQugx
