“Our nation is indeed at a crossroads. Will we pursue the search for truth, or will we dodge, weave and evade the truth? ... ascertaining the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the unqualified, unevasive truth is absolutely critical.” —Sen. Mitch McConnell, February 1998

This is insane. We have seen video, documents, WhatsApp messages, witnesses, a GAO report establishing it happened. We have video of the president’s chief of staff admitting it happened. I don’t want to live in a fucking Orwellian dictatorship where those things don’t matter.
