Prosecution is difficult.

Documents Provide New Details of Trump’s Pressure Campaign on Ukraine

The dozens of pages of notes, text messages and other records lay out work conducted by Rudolph W. Giuliani and an associate on behalf of the president.

Prosecution is difficult.

Trump’s Impeachment Trial a Perilous Duty for Chief Justice

Chief Justice John Roberts’s role at an impeachment trial may be mostly ceremonial, but signs of partisanship could damage the Supreme Court.

Chief Justice Rehenquist ruled the senate a court.
Courts are composed of judges.
Judges rule on matters of law.
Juries are called to rule on matters of fact.
The house has established the facts. The facts are not in question.

Trump should be removed.
Giuliani should go to prison.
He should have company there.

6 Takeaways From the January 2020 Democratic Debate

While sparks didn’t really fly, Warren and Sanders had a tense moment. Klobuchar was the only one to throw punches in the debate, and Biden largely escaped attacks from his rivals.

Debate is the wrong format in an election.

Cory Booker’s Exit From 2020 Race Ends a Once-Promising Political Chapter

The New Jersey senator, who built his campaign around a message of unity, was unable to catch on with substantial numbers of voters and ended his quest before voting began.

I am not sorry to see him end his national effort.

The 10 Most Checked-Out Books in N.Y. Public Library History

More than half are children’s books, but “1984,” “To Kill a Mockingbird” and “Fahrenheit 451” also made the list.

There is so much that could be known.
This is not part of it.

How Tiffany Moved 114,000 Gems Without Getting Robbed

It took dozens of security officers, hundreds of cameras and a vow of secrecy for the storied jeweler to move to temporary quarters as it renovates its flagship store on Fifth Avenue.

Not of much interest to me.
