Those interested in what Ray has been writing/saying over the past year about impeachment may wish to click on some of the links below, which we posted earlier as part of:

Impeachment For Cognoscenti, Dummies, and Those In Between

“We took some time today [Dec. 1, 2019] to search raymcgovern.com for some of the key articles on impeachment posted since Jan. 2019. We will group links to these articles chronologically under List A. Then we will compile a shorter (chronological) List B with links to postings of background related to impeachment, for those who may have missed key articles when they were posted here or elsewhere during 2019. You may prefer to go through List A, and List B as well, from the bottom up rather than top-down.”

Doubly interesting in retrospect. Who knows what happened to the Nunes referrals? Will William Barr and John Durham be able to put some spine into the president and persuade him to let it happen this time? Will Establishment media be able to keep pros like Professor Johnathan Turley and former NSA Technical Director William Binney off the TV screen?
