Just one day after President Donald Trump's lawyers insisted during his Senate impeachment trial that the President did nothing wrong, reporting from the New York Times made the job of defending Trump even more difficult.

The Times reported on the upcoming memoir from Trump's former National Security Advisor John Bolton, which asserts that President Trump sought to withhold $391 million in congressionally approved aid from Ukraine until its President announced an investigation into his potential 2020 rival, former Vice President Joe Biden.

If true, Bolton's assertion would confirm previous second-hand testimony regarding the existence of a quid pro quo in Trump's dealings with Ukraine.

The revelations further amplified calls for four Republican Senators to break with their party and vote in favor of subpoenaing witnesses, many of whom were withheld by the Trump administration from testifying in the House impeachment inquiry.

Trump and other White House officials completely deny the allegations in Bolton's book, leading others to challenge both Trump and Bolton to testify under oath before the Senate to prove the veracity of the allegation and the subsequent denial.

Meanwhile, one of Trump's favorite networks—Fox News—insists there's no "there" there.

Fox host Steve Hilton insisted that Biden's allegations don't change anything.

Hilton said:

"I've read the full report and it seems to me that it doesn't change anything of substance, but you can be sure this is the story that impeachment fanatics on establishment state TV will be obsessed with tomorrow."

Hilton's dismissal in defense of Trump frustrated people, to say the least.







One of Trump's and other Republicans' previous defenses was that no firsthand witnesses to Trump's orders on Ukraine testified before the House committees overseeing the process. This is because the White House withheld these witnesses from testifying.

A vote for hearing more witnesses could send the administration's bulwark against further testimony crumbling.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
