Trump: Its about time that some Muslims attack us. I could really use it.
Ryan: If they dont, I will take away the Social Security. That will change the focus in a hurry.

ISIS should attack the Social Security Administration building. It’s a twofer.

Not a fan of Blunt’s, and don’t expect much more than white washing. That said, he is asking aloud what bluntly needs to be asked.

repubes need to be called out for their shit endlessly

blunt is so full of crap in his statements, being on the intel committee he had access to all sorts of classified briefings regarding this, so to act like he is not aware of what he already knows is so disingenuous makes me want to kick his balls up into his throat. every time they behave like this makes them even more complicit in treason

this needs to stain repubes for the remainder of time, fucking traitors

Too soon. Besides, we need to look into that matter of George Soros paying demonstrators to disrupt Republican town hall meetings. After that, we need to look into Benghazi, and then a further investigation into why people aren’t buying Ivanka’s stuff is probably in order.

It’s all about priorities.

Before anyone gets the misguided notion that Blunt’s spine has gone from limp to semi-flaccid here…

“For all of us, finding out if there’s a problem or not, sooner rather than later, is the right thing to do.”

By “all of us”, he means the GOP.

He’d rather not see his party go down in utter flames along with the Trumpenburg.

And take his sorry tuches with it.

“We should look into it exhaustively.”
– Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO)

“I would think that we should talk to Gen. Flynn very soon and that should answer a lot of questions,” [Sen. Blunt] continued. “What did he know? What did he do? And is there any reason to believe that anybody else knew that and didn’t take the kind of action they should have taken?”

Under oath, Sen. Blunt. You must only “talk to Gen. Flynn” under oath. Anything else is just partisan bullshit under the guise of a legitimate “investigation”.

Bannon and Flynn were simpatico on the clash of civilizations world view and Russia being the center of white nationalism. When does Bannon’s name get dragged into this?

When does Bannon’s name get dragged into this?

As soon as someone else in the WH does NOT agree to fall on their sword for Bannon and Trump, as Flynn is attempting to do. In other words, very soon – the only thing Republicans do better than lying is pointing the finger elsewhere to cover their own asses. I give it no more than two weeks before “Trump and Bannon knew” is splashed across the headlines.

McConnell thought he had a headache with the Puzder confirmation. Life comes at you fast.

@doremus_jessup He’s got Breitbart, InfoWars, Fox News, and (sadly) the WSJ working overtime trying to turn this into an ‘Obama admin illegally eavesdropped on Flynn’s calls’ story.

The New York Times reported Monday night that Flynn had been asked to resign by President Donald Trump’s chief strategist, Steve Bannon.

President Bannon is trying to limit the damage. It’s not going to work.

The Justice Department (FBI Counter espionage unit) knew enough about the content of the call to be concerned that Flynn could be leveraged. They have some sort of signal intercept, right?

The Russians tape the phone calls and know everything that was said, too.

The big question is still “why did Flynn tell the Russians not to react to US sanctions for interfering with the election?” How could he have made that assurance unless he had discussed it with Trump.

OFM. "Own Force Monitoring" is a tool to catch American spies communicating w/our enemies. Seems we caught one. https://t.co/WKbL0zpHoi
