". . . The fate of Trump's presidency, his re-election hopes, the makeup of the next Congress and the ability of the three branches of government to check and balance power under the Constitution all hang in the balance as the Judiciary Committee opens its first hearing Wednesday. . ."

Stakes . . .

(from Joseph and His Brothers by Thomas Mann, translations by John E. Woods)
". . . Jacob's son was almost as weary from standing before Pharoah as he had once been when he had had to play the mute servant  for the old couple in the garden cottage. But young Pharaoh - despite all his tender feelings for gnats, chicks, the little mouse, and the son of the worm - apparently had no sense of this particular problem, for his was a royal and rather forgetful tenderness.  Neither he nor the Mother-Goddess on her high throne even considered - were in fact probably incapable of considering - asking him to take a seat, however much his legs might feel like it and despite several charmingly inviting taborets with which the Cretan loggia was furnished.  It was taxing, but when one knows what is at stake, one gladly puts of with a good many things and stands one's ground - a phrase that has rarely or perhaps never been more apt than on this long-ago occasion. . .

When I see that look. . .

. . . upon your face

I know that I've been dealt an
Ace of hearts
Something starts.
Pulse is pounding like a conga drum
The blood goes rushing to and from
My head
Turns my face to red

So ante-up and hit me once then hit me twice
The stakes are high you know I've got to keep as cool as ice
This game we're in together
Could end as quickly as it starts
But I'll just take my chances
I'll just take my chances
'Cause I know that I'm have you and you're my
Ace of hearts my Ace of hearts
I know that I have you and you're my ace of hearts

Deal me in I'm staying for the course
And if I lose don't feel remorse for me
You will always be
In my every breath and in my soul
When chips are down you take
Control and then
Bring me back again

So ante-up and hit me once then hit me twice
The stakes are high you know I've got to keep as cool as ice
This game we're in together
Could end as quickly as it starts
But I'll just take my chances
I'll just take my chances
'Cause I know that I'm have you and you're my
Ace of hearts my Ace of hearts
I know that I have you and you're my ace of hearts
