Of course.

Ambassador to the European Union, Gordon Sondland, testified before the House Intelligence Committee in what many saw as a damning testimony against President Donald Trump.

After further confirming there was, in fact, a quid pro quo instructed from the President through his personal lawyer and unofficial Ukraine diplomat Rudy Giuliani, Sondland also testified that those in the highest levels of Trump's administration, Vice President Mike Pence and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, knew of his efforts.


The one piece of evidence Republicans are using in their favor is Sondland's testimony that the President told him in a September 9 phone conversation that he wanted "no quid pro quo" and "nothing" from Ukraine, only for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to "do the right thing."

The New York Times article first reporting on the link between investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden and Ukrainian aid withheld by the White House just happened to be published the same day of that call.

Never one to forego a chance at misleading the public, Trump trotted onto the White House Lawn regurgitating that defense to reporters.

That was when a picture of Trump's handwritten notes went viral.

The notes read:

"I WANT NOTHING

I WANT NOTHING

I WANT NO QUID PRO QUO. TELL ZELLINSKY [sic] TO DO THE RIGHT THING.

THIS IS THE FINAL WORD FROM THE PRES OF THE U.S."

The all-caps notes, which misspelled the name of the foreign leader who's one of the key players in the scandal, drew widespread ridicule across the internet.

They couldn't believe it was real.

What does it say about both Trump's mental capacity and innocence if he needs to remember the so-called facts he's claimed all along?

As "I WANT NOTHING" began to trend on Twitter, others again pointed out the odd timing of the call Trump quoted.

The hold on aid was released two days after the call and report.

Iranian state media and health officials said the strike occurred early Saturday morning in Minab, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province. Journalists from international news organizations have not been granted access to independently verify the reported death toll or the circumstances surrounding the strike.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

TikToker Secretly Records Unhinged Spectrum Employee Screaming At Her For Trying To Cancel Her Service

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
