Whistleblower

Democrats' response I want to see: :"Mr President, the nation's intelligence agencies have determined that opposing nations have been and are interfering with America's elections and thus our democracy. The y have received a report duly filed under our whistleblower procedures which the Inspector General has affirmed is both credible and urgent, yet the Director of National Intelligence has refused to cooperate with the legal requirement to turn said complaint over to Congress. Indications are that the complaint involves an attempt to coerce the Ukrainian government to interfere with our 2020 election - an act which Mr Giulianni has admitted to. It appears evident that the sole reason for blocking this complaint would be to cover up an illegal act or acts,, We do not regard the Department of Justice opinion that a sitting president may not be investigated as binding in any way. Therefore, we, the House Intelligence Committee, the House of Representatives and the people of the United States DEMAND that you have the full and unredacted complaint given to the Congress immediately, as the law requires, that we may ascertain the innocence of all involved, or failing that, that you step down from the office of President of the United States."
If Ukraine is not confirmed, that sentence can bee omitted.
The Democrats must stop bringing a knife to a gunfight. Republicans are playing hardball. We need to bring on an Endgame.

The Multiverse Trope

I'm hoping the Multiverse in Doctor Strange isn't what we expect. I was fine back in the 60s with Earth-1 and Earth-2 but now it's (a) complicated beyond belief ~ how many offspring of Scott and Jean of the X-Men from different timelines are there? (b) overused ~ it seems that's all comics are about now (c) cheapens the whole concept ~ crossing the multiverse should not be as easy as crossing the street.

The multiverse theory is being disputed now in favor of one universe with patches where different laws apply, expanding too fast for us ever reaching another patch; and different laws does not mean alternate universe counterparts, it means different laws, like molecules not able to form, no gravity, or enough lethal radiation to kill any living organism. Feige was very specific about time travel not affecting the timeline (EG Tony Stark's daughter not erased.) Loki in Endgame doesn't appear to have stepped out of the timeline to create a new one; since his TV series will take place in history he is just time traveling. He could still end up back where he started. In Doctor Strange the extradimensional worlds seemed to fit the different laws theory ~ worlds so different that Dormammu could exist. I'm hoping the Multiverse of Madness means universes maddeningly different from ours, not just the tired old alternate universes trope.
