Hot Topic What Democrat Will Get the Rosehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPWOZTFBt2ohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jqv2kJAmh24No one watched the last debate. [People were overwhelmed with Impeachment Hearings]. 50% of American men will not vote for a female candidate. Abby asks who would be her dream candidate – Joy says Oprah. Says no one wants a statesmen, they want a celebrity. Wonders if we just want a figurehead and someone else makes the decision. Ana says the question gets asked again, black man (already Obama), woman (Hillary got 3M more votes). Abby brings up Pelosi, the most powerful woman in DC, mentions Klobuchar moment mentioning Pelosi at debate. Sunny talks about the efficiency of female legislators, lists all the reasons females in Congress are better. Joy brings up Fiona Hill testimony re/female behavior. Plays clip. Joy mentions the hypocrisy. Yovanovitch and Hill were fabulous, the [GOP] men were shouty emotional crazy pants. Meghan says blah blah. Joy brings up Nikki Haley and her awful T45 support.
Abby says she doesn’t know Fiona Hill politics, but she’d vote for her. Abby says her dad knows her, she’s great. Tells the pigtail on fire story. Meghan says blah blah. Ana doesn’t like calling it gender identity politics. But it matters to see women standing up there running for President.
Hot Topic Marie Kondo Sparks More Joyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6j3PKk2j90gJoy explains Marie Kondo phenomenon. Now Kondo has an online store of knick-knacks. Ana asks about a tuning fork. Sunny says she wants to make money. Abby says her house is a junkyard, Marie can come over any time. Abby says she has children and animals, found something on her floor that you don’t want to find on your floor. Ana makes joke about 3 kids it obviously wasn’t a used condom. Everyone laughs.

She doesn't speak anymore this clip or the next segment.Joy says more people are listening to x-rated podcasts than ever before. Joy starts telling joke. Meghan interrupts.

Ana thinks Abby and Sunny have sexy voices, they’ve done this before. Abby says she’s had people in her life who had a p0rn addiction, talks about that. So, if people need this in their life, maybe this is a better option. Sunny says kids are watching p0rn as early as 13 yrs old. Ana wonders if they’re sitting next to her (listening to podcast p0rn) while on the plane.
Hot Topic Women Moneymakershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue5f-7HRZxIJoy says survey of 6,000 American couples, men stress out if the woman is the breadwinner. [She forgets to say what %]. Says most of her g/f make more money than the men in their life. The money is coming in, what do they care. Abby says she dated a guy once, who said if they married, she wouldn’t work. Expands on that. Ana just wants a man who can pay for dinner when he takes her out on a date. Sunny says the money goes in the same pot. Ana is like Nooo, you guys got married young, but when you get married older, there’s a difference. Sunny has money for her shoe account.
Bonus Recap Impeachment Hearings Day 5Icymi the hearings yesterday, Fiona Hill was scorched earth in the most glorious way.
. Fiona Hill is my new favorite person. She eviscerated everyone who crossed her, particularly the GOP committee. When it got to member questioning, several just filibustered their 5 minutes rather than ask her (or Holmes) an actual question. She did all of this in a pleasant, calm, articulate manner with her lovely British accent.
. Conaway [do you know I’m in the military] was very preachy and accusing [note, I think it was him], so Schiff allowed Hill to respond to his remarks. This was a masterclass in why she’s a diplomat. She managed to make her point, defend her character, clarify his inaccurate claims, while at the same time making him think he was being complimented. Looool. Later a Dem committee member even called out how Hill had to tolerate so much mansplaining.
. Hill confirmed everything we knew already but suffered no fools while she was at it. She implicated Bolton many times as one of the -good guys- who held firm that what T45, Mulvaney, Giuliani, Sondland were doing was wrong and would have no part in it. Bolton was also the one who recommended she speak to NSC counsel pronto.
. Hill knocked down GOP attempts to disparage Lt Col Vindman, saying he was an expert on foreign policy but not experienced in how the situation had become so politicized. It wasn't a reflection of her opinion on his overall competence or employee performance.
. Hill addressed the abomination of smearing Marie Yovanovitch’s character and service. She said it’s fine if any potus wants to replace an Ambassador, but it was unacceptable that T45 and his cronies smeared MV for no reason. They could’ve replaced her without doing that. It clearly drew the conclusion that MV was attacked because she’s a woman and to proactively threaten her from speaking out.
. In very specific detail, Hill outlined all the conversations that led her to meet with NSC lawyers and then subsequently resign. She never let herself get caught up in speculation outside her purview.
. Her expressions at times worthy gif-worthy, hopefully we'll see those pop up.
. Holmes remembered the restaurant conversation like it was yesterday, which was the crux of his testimony. How the lunch came to be, who was present, where people sat, the table arrangement. Aside from repeating what was already public (that T45 asked about investigations and Sondland’s response), the call also included conversation about A$AP Rocky, playing the race card, and the Kardashians, so that happened.
. Sidebar but Bolton quit-was-fired in a curious manner on 10 Sept. The military aid to Ukraine was released on 11 Sept, ostensibly by this fallout. Either by Bolton getting it initiated the day before, going around T45, or by T45 realizing he's toast because of whistleblower fallout. Bolton was against their shenanigans on this topic. But he has not agreed to testify to the House, and has a book deal in the works, and [today] he just re-joined Twitter. Because of course.
. Meanwhile Pouty McFussypants called in /this morning/ to Faux & Enemies for a rambling eleventy billion lie rant about everything and everybody. @ddale8 has a fact check.
