You snark, but I’m guessing that this attitude is going to be precisely the “strategy” the WH/Admin/Orange Anus is going to use as a “defense” once the impeachment resolution goes to the Senate*.
Something along the lines of “this is a political, not a legal proceeding, so whatever political pressure we can use to deflect these [hysterical witch-hunt/Deep-State coup/illegal persecution] charges is a legitimate course of action”. And never mind the overheated bloviations about “process”…

“a man can get away with it” because other men let them
Katie Hill could get away with it too if she chose to. Short of a 2/3rds vote of congress she can’t be removed until the next election. Steve King was censured and removed from all of his committees and still brazenly refuses to resign and may well get re-elected. Most people in Duncan Hunters position would have resigned already, but if he refuses to the mechanisms for removal, before some sort of trial and conviction are just not there.

i agree and i think she should have unresigned when the story came out:
“Conservative websites soon revealed that they had obtained some of Hill’s private texts and nude photos of her, including one with a campaign aide. The main authors of the articles, it turns out, were former campaign advisors to Steve Knight, the Republican congressman ousted by Hill a year ago.”

We live in a townhouse complex, so families drive in to trick or treat. Our puppy isn’t happy and we’re trying to keep her calm after the heart worm diagnosis (we turned down the lights and put the treats out on the porch). It’s a shame because I love seeing the kids’ costumes.
Interesting Halloween story: Last year my wife and I were New Orleans on 10/31 for an Ed Sheeran concert.
The concert didn’t end until around 10:15 by which point Bourbon Street was packed with costumed revelers. Some really good stuff too.
One of my personal favorites was three guys dressed as Johnny Depp from Pirates, Johnny Depp as Mad Hatter and Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka.
I’ve noticed this the past couple of years:
Do kids even say “Trick or treat” anymore??? I answer the door, waiting for it, and they just stare at me like, “Are you going to give me any candy, lady?” And then it gets awkward so *I* say “Trick or treat!” which is not the way it’s supposed to work and it makes me mad 👿 pic.twitter.com/nRkKKL2xaB

Conservative Columnist Urges the GOP to Abandon the Rule of Law
by Nancy LeTourneau
Mollie Hemingway (how dare she have the same name as our Molly Ivins??) writes in The Federalist, and she got LeTourneau mad enough to write about what will happen if DT loses in 2020 and refuses to concede.
Hemingway just set the stage for Republicans to claim that the 2020 election was stolen if Trump loses, all without providing a shred of evidence. Her remedy is to abandon the rule of law and engage mobs in an effort to intimidate their opponents. To the extent that the Federalist is representative of “establishment Republicans,” it is impossible to capture the danger of what is being proposed.
During Trump’s presidency we’ve seen a lot of references to a “constitutional crisis.” But nothing we’ve witnessed so far compares to what Hemingway is suggesting. The true test of whether Majority Leader McConnell and his Republican colleagues in congress are able to put country over party will come if Trump and his supporters take her advice. Our democratic republic will be on the line, with no one but them to save it.
