Shepard Smith re-emerged on the pubic stage last night where he took some veiled shots at Donald Trump and, possibly, Fox News – then pledged $500,000 to the Committee to Protect Journalists.

Donald Trump renewed his attacks on former Ukraine Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch, this time arguing she deserved to be removed from her post because she refused to hang a photo of him in the embassy. Not one of the three Fox & Friends cohosts indicated any concern over such outlandishness.

Oopsie, while chatting with his Fox Friends this morning, Donald Trump said about accusations he had engaged in a “quid pro quo” with Ukraine, “I do want always corruption. Say that to anybody.”

On Sunday, Whiner in Chief Donald Trump attacked Fox News host Chris Wallace on Twitter over his contentious interview with Rep. Steve Scalise. On Monday, Neil Cavuto was a mensch and stood up for his colleague.

When Fox News can’t directly spin the Trump impeachment hearing, it puts banners on the screen to do the propagandizing.

Today's testimony from Fiona Hill and David Holmes may be the most damning to Trump yet. We've got it live streaming after the jump, via The Washington Post. Share your thoughts and observations on the proceedings in our open thread.

Ten Democratic candidates for president will debate tonight at 9 PM ET in Atlanta, Georgia. I'll have information on how to watch, who will be debating and who's moderating after the jump.

A lawyer for Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, a decorated war veteran who was born in Ukraine, asked Fox News to retract the baseless smears that he is a traitor with a warning that a lawsuit may follow if Fox fails to do the right thing.

Since I can't watch and write blog posts at the same time, I thought screen grabs of the impeachment hearting testimony of Gordon Sondland would prove instructive. I will update the post as the hearing proceeds.

If the gang at Morning Joe going over Gordon Sondland's opening statement is any guide, today's testimony is going to be bombshell. You can watch it here, after the jump. 5:30 PM Update: two more witnesses, Laura Cooper, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense, and David Hale, undersecretary of state for political affairs at the State Department, are due to begin their testimony.
