Right?
Grassley admits that he (and implicitly admits that Graham) have been using giving covering fire to people accused of what is, at least morally, treason by smearing the witnesses–people who put themselves on the line purely because they didn’t want to see the US governed by Russian puppets–in the expectation of receiving political support for domestic legislation? And the scandal is that the traitors backstabbed them?
So the quid didn’t meet the pro quo?
That is what happens when crooked people makes deals with each other.
Also…"“I’ve got people in the White House sympathetic to it but feel corralled by Sessions and a president that hasn’t dug into it,” Grassley said.
Chucky…if it has taken you a full YEAR to realize that your Dear Leader doesn’t “dig in” to legislation, or quite frankly ANYTHING given to him for deliberation, you are as big a dolt and hypocrite as he is. It has been obvious well before Donnie even managed to get elected with Russian help.
You are supporting a President who once again issued an empty Tweet of “prayers and condolences” following yet another horrific school shooting in Florida - the 18th this year alone. You are supporting the same President who approved gutting an Obama era rule making it hard for mentally ill people to get guns, even as that same President this morning urged Americans to report mentally ill people. And you are supporting a President who will shortly be handed a new bill, pushed through Congress by the GOP and NRA that will force every state in the nation to accept people carrying concealed weapons, even if their home state bars it under dubious “reciprocity.” YOUR PARTY Chucky…YOU own it.
So frankly for you and Rick Scott and Marco Rubio and Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell and the NRA and the 20 top members of Congress who are the top recipients of NRA blood money (gee all of them are Republicans) issuing their own meaningless prayers and condolences even as they say it is “too early” to talk about effective gun controls, or it all needs more study, here’s a hearty and sincere
F…K You.
Quid pro quo is the grease that makes democracy work. Hell, it’s the grease that makes every form of government work. But you don’t do quid pro quo’s when the trade is covering the asses of people who are selling us out to a hostile foreign power! How completely jaded and lost to any sense of decency do you have to be not to see that?
Yeah, both of these bills they were doing the ass covering for were worthy domestic legislation–immigration reform/Dreamers and rearranging boxes on the DoJ T.O. But they smeared decent people to protect traitors!
You have to wonder how much of this is posturing (for Trump) to try to force Sessions out.
They wanted to call him back every other day for additional hearings about his Russian connection, and I shut them off of that
One would think it would be important to Sen. Grassley to determine how deep a potential Attorney General is engrossed into the stealing of an election by a foreign government.
Grassley: “I gamed the system to get that little racist bastard confirmed, and this is the thanks I get?!?”
One would think but obviously that isn’t the priority.
How stupid is Grassley for admitting this?
It’s difficult for Sessions to speak coherently with Drumpf’s nutsack in his mouth…
After reading this, I was left with a question. Is Grassley incensed? I couldn’t quit tell…
Yesterday the DOJ and Sessions in particular piss off Sen Grassley so much that he rants about it on Twitter - and then to reporters.
Today - its DHS pissing off Sen Lindsey Graham. (Click the tweet to see Graham’s Press Release)
BFD. Retired old man yells at clouds.
Grassley further added, “You bet I’m pissed. I mean, here’s the quid - where’s the goddamn quo?”
“…hearings about his Russian connection, and I shut them off of that…” Yeah, so Grassley covered Jefferson Beauregard’s ass on Russia, so he owes him. That’s the way it works, right?
Oh, Sweet Baby Jesus of the Blind Fury, stand back, childrens! At this rate, Grassley will start having Very Serious Concerns any day now, and then look out, Brother Sessions!
Come on, that would just be icing on the cake. One thing we know about Sessions is that he isn’t into white supremacy just for money or political expediency. It’s core.
Two ancient crocodiles viciously fighting each other.
Just nothing like building your first go-cart …
Down the hill ya go ! … Wweeeeeeeee ----
And not until you reach the bottom …
Do you understand the need for ’ brakes ’ —
Umm, when will Grassley stop his violent rhetoric and support a complete and total ban on possession of semi-automatic guns by anyone other than law enforcement and military forces?
When will Grassley do the right thing?
Lock them all up!
It is grand entertainment
