A bit O/T but take a look at this chilling threat against anyone who might step forward with information regarding collusion:
Comey gave separate briefings to the House and to the Senate committee members. The House didnât go into the Cone of Silence, so the Senate hearings are where the real action is going to be.
Nunes should recuse himself, the asshole. But at least Schiff isnât sitting around silently letting him set the stage.
How would you know? Youâve been dragging your feet about any investigation. Try connecting the dots.
I wonât hold my breath.
Nunes doesnât know only in the sense that he hasnât been told, which is because ⌠well âŚ
Yea I just said that.
I see it now!
We appreciate her efforts.
Maybe Rob Reiner can hide Tim in his attic.
Despite Schiffâs saying thereâs circumstantial evidence of collusion, which is undeniable given what we in the public already know, I imagine rabid partisans such as Nunes and most of the others could feel comfortable saying thereâs no evidence and mean no direct, irrefutable evidence. But I also imagine they would straight-up lie in any forum where thatâs not illegal and also likely to come to light. Weâre at a place now where 99.99 percent of prominent GOP people would see talking to the media as a thing you do to advance the partyâs goals, not to inform the public, and lying is part of the program.
The more Nunes obstructs, the more suspicious we all get. Nunes knows damned well the truth will come out eventually â his actions clearly are meant to stall and obfuscate while they push through the most radical right wing agenda this country has ever seen. His behavior is so transparent â and points to the obvious conclusion that he knows damned well there was collusion â he himself may even be involved in the activity â and surely is involved in a cover up. If he believed in Trumpâs innocence he would be eager to clear his name.
Interesting note on Ms. Cribb.
You one upped me totally by posting the link.
I donât care cause itâs important.
I somehow missed that Comey came to the Hill to brief select members of both chambers. Nunes is doing a PeePee - claim in advance that there is nothing to see, no truth to any negative conjectures. Same as he did with the CBO before they scored his dreadful budget and what he and his meat puppet Lil Spice do with âfake newsâ.
Since Nunes says thereâs no evidence, it would seem that there is a mountain of evidence.
Very possible. That way he can keep excusing for doing little and thereby shielding Trump. Meanwhile the FBI/IC might have withheld critical information from him as well â that would be like draining the water through the colander straight down to the sink of the White House.
I would put it this way. Schiff is correct. Nunes is a liar by hard evidence and circumstantially appears to be a traitor.
Why is this guy so particularly hellbent on preventing what may be treasonous activity from coming to light? Is it as simple as blind partisanship or worry he will be punished politically if he doesnât circle the wagons with the reset of the GOP enablers? Or is he more deeply involved in possible crimes as part of Trump;s transition team? I really donât know that much about this joker â he wasnât on my radar at all until he positioned himself as the defender of Trump. Anyone here seen any good articles referencing Nunesâ role, not only in the Trump campaign and transition, but any dealings with Trump prior to his candidacy?
I wish I could say that there is âno evidenceâ of collusion between the White House and Nunes on coordinating a response about Russia allegations. This is only true in the sense that the White House made no secret of giving marching orders to Nunes; in that sense, there was no collusion, which needs to be hidden.
Come to think of it, could this be Nunesâ out? It was so obvious that it wasnât collusion? When Trump publicly asked Russia to hack Hillary, e.g.
I was too busy congratulating myself for successfully copying a link on my phone (definitely at the outer reaches of my technical capabilities ⌠some day I hope to figure out the âconferenceâ button on my phone) to notice you got there first.
No one-upping intended ⌠or, in your case, possible.
Because the GOP is not in power legitimately. If the election wasnât a free and fair election, their wins arenât free and fair.
