Trump’s impeachment barricade crumbles
Politico by KYLE CHENEY and ANDREW DESIDERIO

Donald Trump's impeachment blockade has collapsed.
The president's former top Russia adviser, Fiona Hill — the first White House official to cooperate in Democrats' investigation of the Ukraine scandal — has detailed for lawmakers a trail of alleged corruption that extends from Kiev to the West Wing. In dramatic testimony on Monday, she roped in some of Trump's top advisers as witnesses to the unfolding controversy.

CBS News poll: Most Americans favor a national health plan
CBC New by Fred Backus and Jennifer De Pinto

With 12 Democratic candidates lined up for Tuesday's debate, Americans who tune in are likely to witness another spirited debate on health care — at least if previous debates can be any predictor. A majority of Americans agree with many of the Democratic presidential candidates in favoring some type of national health insurance plan, though most Americans still like the health insurance they currently have and do not want private insurance to be replaced by a public option.

Trump Suspects a Spiteful John Bolton Is Behind Some of the Ukraine Leaks
thedailybeast.com by Asawin Suebsaeng & Sam Stein

In the course of casual conversations with advisers and friends, President Trump has privately raised suspicions that a spiteful John Bolton, his notoriously hawkish former national security adviser, could be one of the sources behind the flood of leaks against him, three people familiar with the comments said.

Sondland Long Coveted an Ambassadorship
The Washington Post

For more than a decade, Sondland’s home in Portland, Ore., had been a fundraising outpost for establishment Republicans, candidates he hoped would one day recognize his work corralling wealthy West Coast donors and reward him with a high-profile appointment — preferably, he told friends, an ambassadorship.

英语政治和媒体词典 Dictionary of Politics & Media

最近北美很热闹,加拿大忙于联邦换届大选,投票昨晚9点全部结束;10月21日就是加拿大第43个联邦大选日,将选出新的执政党和总理 ;美国忙于2020总统大选, 今晚8点十二位民主党总统候选人将在在俄亥俄州韦斯特维尔进行民主党候选人的第四次辩论。一场场候选人辩论或单独站台,如同一场场用语言和手势为武器的拳击赛, 看着过瘾。

如何机敏的回答;巧妙的应对,成为每个候选人事后被点评的重点。我留意了记者报道大选和候选人时使用的“如何应对 ”等相关的英文单词或词组。归纳如下:

clapback 怒对,机智应对 (noun)
Millennials viewers perked up when they heard Singh get colloquial in a clapback.

“I’mma give you some advice here — pro tip, don’t double down on that,” Singh shot back at Scheer, who was criticizing the NDPs’ pharmacare plan by arguing that the vast majority of Canadians are already eligible for prescription coverage, and the focus should be on those who “fall through the cracks”.

one liner 俏皮话,打趣话;小笑话 (noun phrase)
While the winners and losers of the night will be debated in the days to come, here's a selection of some of the night's best one-liners.

"Step one is, appoint a secretary of education who actually believes in public education," said Buttegieg.

riposte 机敏的回答 (noun)
As former Congressman John Delaney and other of the lesser-known centrists continued to knock her big-ticket progressive plans, Warren was ready with the riposte.

wisecrack 妙语 (noun & verb)
By Louisiana standards, the race could almost be considered a bit of a snoozer, without the prostitution scandals, corruption allegations and wisecracking characters of prior elections.

comeback 巧妙回答 (noun & verb)
Biden’s comeback: “I stand with Barack Obama all eight years -- good, bad and indifferent.” Although intramural friction flared, more of the night's vitriol was aimed at Trump.

zinger 机智的言论或反驳 (noun)
New York Times: “Catchy debate lines alone rarely determine the outcome of a race. But there is a skill to landing the perfect zinger, the kind of quick remark that can reinvigorate a campaign, boost fund-raising, allay concerns about a candidate or even sink an opponent.”

rejoinder 反驳 (noun)
Trudeau had no particular rejoinder to fight fire with fire. All night he had trouble being the prime minister. He has a hesitant speaking style when he’s thinking aloud, and that never helps when opponents take a nanosecond to interrupt. He looked a bit diminished, mostly like a candidate for the office, not the occupant of it.

repartee 机敏巧妙的回答 (noun)
What else could one expect from a format that offered up witless repartee as “rebuttals” — and a long segment with no questions at all?

down pat 对…烂熟于心,对…了如指掌 (adv)
Unlike the vast majority of his rivals in Detroit, the 37-year-old McKinsey alum had his lines down pat. Buttigieg had a clear, confident answer to (almost) every question he fielded, and proved particularly adept at making the case for his unique strengths in a general-election campaign against Trump.
