Blogging, one learns weird things -- like that a suburban newspaper reprints Washington Post (style section, no less) articles, and gets credit for them on Google.
I was taken by the article's effective summing-up of the week's impeachment news: "...The Constitution is made of words and ideals but, in practice, it is quorums and points of order. It is stacks of paper, Diet Cokes, stifled bladders, metaphorical drug deals, actual antitank missiles, and bureaucrats who tolerate partisans who disdain bureaucrats."
"Impeachapalooza" ain't bad, either! Whatever it takes to get the word out about Trump's outrages...
