Something is happening behind the scenes while everyone is focussed on Trump's failure to concede: he's gutting our career civil service and replacing them with loyalists:

During the biggest health crisis of this generation, @realDonaldTrump asked his officials to slow down the one thing that could keep us safe: testing.
How many families suffered and lives were lost because of his gross criminality? #AmericaOrTrump
"These moves by the president during the past few weeks are precisely the type of power the founders feared a tyrannical president may attempt to accrue to himself." #pardons

Trump really learned that lesson: Trump is discussing firing Michael Atkinson, the inspector general of the intelligence community, w/advisors. Why? Trump is upset he let the whistleblower complaint get to Congress-in other words, that he followed the law. washingtonpost.com/politics/…
Questions for Senators to ask in the #ImpeachmentTrial this week:
1/ No president in US history has ever publicly investigated his political rival. And no president has ever asked a foreign country to investigate his political rival. What evidence have you seen to justify...
2/ ...President Trump taking these unprecedented steps. Why didn't he first submit that evidence to the FBI? Isn't that the appropriate way to open an investigation of a US citizen? Isn't that something...
3/ ...that should be kept completely quiet, the way neither Obama or Hillary leaked the fact that Trump's campaign was under FBI investigation during the 2016 election? @RepAdamSchiff @RepSylviaGarcia @RepJerryNadler @RepJeffries @RepZoeLofgren @RepJasonCrow @RepValDemings

@AdamSchiff @JerryNadler @RepZoeLofgren @RepJeffries @RepValDemings I didn't see this evidence in your Trial Memorandum... seems like an important tidbit to use this week, if possible #ImpeachmentTrial

WATCH: @EamonJavers: "Have you asked foreign leaders for any corruption investigations that don't involve your political opponents?"
President Trump: “You know, we would have to look"

Schiff is actually offering the only real defense: Trump was nuts and believed whatever Putin told him
Unless President Trump answers this question as "Yes!" and provides supporting evidence, he is guilty and should be removed from office. #ImpeachmentInquiry

The Constitution is clear: the President cannot accept gifts or payments from foreign governments. No one is above the law. #EmolumentsClause

MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The DNI of the United States—Whose Only Direct Superior Is the President of the United States—Is Now Telling Congress a "Higher Authority" Told Him to Keep From Congress an IC Whistleblower Whose Intelligence the IC Inspector General Has Confirmed Is "Urgent"
This is really something.
@RepAdamSchiff said on CBS today that the Director of National Intelligence has told the Intel Committee that he was instructed not to turn over the whistleblower's complaint by a "higher authority":
