As of now, cnn/msnbc aren't even discussing flynn! how long before they ramp

[Gabi Hayes]

up the usual suspects to spin themselves under the table, trying to justify this very likely fatal blow (PLEASE!) to this most tainted ever ''presidency''

this is going to be perhaps the most riveting couple of hours I've ever seen

and I wallowed in watergate

ever since HST started covering nixon I've been hooked

been trying to stay away from this....had been from election night to a month or so ago, but this is too compelling to ignore

[malaise]

1. Tweety will probably toouch it but I expect details from Chris Hayes, Rachel and Lawrence

Can't wait

[Gabi Hayes]

3. time to get the drink on....don't have any of that other thing

was gonna go out, but this is groundbreaking on the level of alexander butterfield

maybe too early for an explosion, but unless the msm just lies down flatter than they did for the Iraq War, how can it NOT be this:

[malaise]

5. I'm peeling some

ortaniques and chilling them - and drinking coconut water

[Gabi Hayes]

6. OK....ortaniques....tiny what? I refuuuuuze to google. they count my keystrokes

some of the good bourbon for myself, methinks

[tblue37]

9. I think that is the brand name for a

hybrid between tangerine and sweet orange--also (generically?) called a tangor.

[Gabi Hayes]

11. cool! I have a bag of two month old limes in the fridge.

how does that sound?

and some month old strawberries......

[malaise]

12. It's our fruit

http://www.genealogy.com/forum/regional/countries/topics/jamaica/6738/
The ORTANIQUE PLANT AND FRUIT was developed by a Jamaican, DAVID DANIEL PHILLIPS, JP, of Davyton District in the parish of Manchester,Jamaica, and later of the Blue Mountain District in the same parish. The area is about ten miles from Mandeville, the capital of the parish; five miles from Williamsfield, and two miles from Bellefield. The parish of Manchester's most famous product is the ortanique. The ortanique is also one of Jamaica's most important money-earners.

The name of this seedless, extremely juicy fruit was coined by combining the words "orange, tangerine and unique" by D.D. Phillips, who had previously created the "Ugli" plant and fruit. The ortanique fruit was created specially for export by years of experimentation by D. D. Phillips.

-------------------------
A gorgeous fruit - best citrus ever

[Gabi Hayes]

13. definitely going to look for those, but I don't think we have him up here. closest

we have is clementines, and they aren't even in the ballpark. for us, they're the equivalent of grape tomatoes/tomatoes to our mostly awful oranges

[malaise]

15. I love clementines but they're not the same

These are much bigger with a different taste - same color though.

[Gabi Hayes]

16. can you tweet me some of those ortaniques?

if you do, I'll tell you where my trumpenstein pic is.....it's FAB!

[malaise]

18. Hehehehehhehe

Wish I could pack some and mail them to you, but they're tough on Agricultural products

[madokie]

25. You have my mouth watering

I'm sure that wasn't your intent but there it is

[malaise]

28. Wish I could send some to you and wifey

[shraby]

26. Tweety touched on it, Hayes is covering it on his show. I spect Rachel will too.

[Gabi Hayes]

2. any predictions as to how this is going to shake out tonight?

is this the deathknell for these monsters?

and monsters, they assuredly are

KGOP HQ:

[Gabi Hayes]

4. still ignoring....will they go to it heavily at 6PM?

how can they not?

then again, on a more micro level how could they NOT discuss the risk corridors?

[Gabi Hayes]

7. WTF? are they wired into the schedule tonight? just gathering whatever they gather

til they have a filled out segment lineup

how can this NOT blow everything else out of the water?

too soon, it must be, yes

[flamingdem]

8. Tweety just reported it but he was kinda

blase. Meanwhile we're partying over here

[a kennedy]

10. AND nothing on the CNN website at all. eom

[Gabi Hayes]

14. WHAT?????? you can't be series!1!!1! this should be the hughest story of the year!

now that is worrisome

is your cnn from the oort cloud, or something?

[a kennedy]

21. Nope, just checked again, and now headline is "a portion of I 85 in Atlanta has collapsed in flames.

I'm talking about their website: http://www.cnn.com.

[Gabi Hayes]

23. that's SAD! SAD! msnbc just showed what will be the most infamous blooper of the next few months:

very angry/crazed flynn asserting that if one axes for immunity, he/she probably committed a crime!

how are those tasty words going down right about now, you venal, treasonous nutbag?

[wishstar]

17. But Tweety's show is good tonight with Sen.Warner, Clint Watts (Senate hearing) on fire

Lots of details about how the Russian hacking went down and how Trump and his campaign helped spread the fake news, how Russian disinformation and even some direct financial help is currently being used to swayl European elections

[Gabi Hayes]

19. yep.....switching back and forth. erin burnett asks angus king about flynn, and he

won't bite

they immediately stop talking about it

baby steps, I guess

[Gabi Hayes]

20. going with flynn right now...david ignatius, who usually seems to know what's what.

in like flynn?

in the slam?

[malaise]

22. Chris Hayes starts with it n/t

[Gabi Hayes]

24. CNN going with it now....J Toobin explaining how immunity works, says Flynn

is taking the 5th, until he gets immunity

on to how North's immunity before congress "destroyd" the feds' case against him, and got his conviction overturned

NO IMMUNITY!

[Gabi Hayes]

27. that was the best segment on flynn so far....he's in for some schadenfreudenly awesome fun!

getting just what he deserves

LOCK

HIM

UP!

[redstatebluegirl]

29. Time to break out the 14 year old scotch.....

[Gabi Hayes]

30. what're you, a one percenter?

what kind?

never had any of that

[redstatebluegirl]

31. Nope a gift from my husband's boss.

It has been in the cabinet for 5 years for a special occasion.

[Gabi Hayes]

32. hope that wasn't dickish sounding.....green tinge to my fingers, I note as I type

you didn't say what it is.....

please, he importuned......

[redstatebluegirl]

33. No but do not assume like that. We could never afford that on our salary.

It has been sitting waiting for the right time.
