I think we have our new “Benghazi!”
Why do Republicans hate America so much?
Didn’t know that supporting Russkie Commies was only considered a crime if you’re a Democrat.
Lol @ the FBI. They go pretty much all in to elect Trump only to have the Republicans pick the Russians over them.
Sadly I expect the effect will likely be the decent FBI employees getting purged, only to be replaced by authoritarian asses.
I certainly hope they weed out all those partisan Republican agents who were unfairly after Hillary nonstop. What? Not looking for corruption on that side of things, too? I am shocked.
officials at the Justice Department and FBI worked to hurt President Donald Trump or help his Democratic opponent in 2016, Hillary Clinton,
Hillary: LMAO.
Comey: I think its other way around.
Couple of thoughts.
Yeah, this star chamber is not good.
Upside, Nunes seems to be heading it up.
Upside again, yeah Devin is heading it up.
Need I say it again?
Added note: Is Nunes doing this for his masters or for himself? Moving to this extent, considering the controversy he is under is provocative. He might be even deeper into things than we realize. He is now literally putting himself up against the DOJ and FBI. Hmm. Pretty heavy lifting for a person who operates like a water boy. Wonder if he gets the towels for the House Republicans when they hit the sauna. Another thought is this is pretty paranoid across the board.
In recent weeks, has there been a single act on the Republican side that would be logical in questioning the processes that actually deals with procedure or law? Is there any actual refutation that is geared in fact?
No. Not a one I can think of.
Right out of the Roy Cohn playbook.
This craziness is how democracy dies.
I know I’m a debbie downer but this shit is bumming me out big time.
When I saw the headline, I was cheered. Who of us does not want to root out corruption?
But then I discovered that it’s just a Republican witch hunt.
Democracy dies when people don’t fight back. So…
FIGHT BACK!
Many more people in Trump’s circle may get ensnared in Mueller’s investigation and suffer criminal charges against them. Trump himself may suffer varying degrees of political damage. However, I wouldn’t pin any hopes on the probe resulting in Trump’s expulsion from office or criminal charges against him. There is no consensus regarding filing a criminal indictment against a sitting President, although it seems most legal experts lean toward the opinion it can’t be done, or would be exceedingly difficult to do so successfully. So, impeachment becomes the only option. This Congress is not impeaching Trump. A Dem Congress post midterms might impeach if a Dem House majority exists, but the subsequent trial phase in the Senate will not convict. There will never be sufficient numbers of Republicans joining Dems to attain the 67 votes to remove Trump. This is not hyperbole, Trump could murder a child in the driveway of the White House, in front of witnesses, and 34 Republican Senators could be found to vote to against impeachment and allow him to finish his term while the murder trial was conducted (if one was conducted. It might be delayed until his term was completed).
Secret meetings. A cabal of ideological hard liners bent on taking down the government.
Make America America Again!
Run for office- the 2018 elections are less than a year away! And if Trump and Louie Gohmert can get elected what’s to stop a qualified candidate?
Become a Precinct Committee Officer, sometimes it’s a Ward officer. You’ll meet with neighborhood Dems and get out the vote. Find good citizens willing to run for office.
Register people to vote. If you need to help people overcome the GOP-led Voter run-around help them do that.
Run for School Board. Make sure Civics is being properly taught. Think a majority of America knows how government works? Just 26% of eligible voters in America voted for Trump and half of eligible voters stayed home last November. Today’s 12-year olds will be voting for President in 8 years.
Run for Mayor, City Council, County Commissioner, Borough Assembly.
Get appointed to your Planning Commission. Know everything going on in your community.
Run for State Legislature or Congress. The next census is in 2020, just over 2 years from now, when we redraw Congressional Districts.
And get rid of GERRYMANDERING! Safe GOP seats gave us such intellectual giants as Louie Gohmert and Steve King. In most cases it’s the state Legislature that draws Congressional boundaries. Make it FAIR, OPEN and HONEST! We can do this!
Overturn Citizens United. Money is NOT speech and Corporations are NOT people- at least not until Texas executes one, and overturn any voter ID laws that are clearly an attempt to disenfranchise the poor and people of color.

And now this
jebus fucking tapdancing Christ

Nunes better hurry up his pasty white ass because he won’t be head of any committees in 12 months and 2 weeks. My hope is that he won’t even be in the next congress.
And fuck the Editors’ Blog for featuring more ramblings by John Judis. If I wanted to read his shit, I’d visit TPM’s Cafe.
The band of Republicans are concerned that officials at the Justice Department and FBI worked to hurt President Donald Trump or help his Democratic opponent in 2016, Hillary Clinton, according to Politico.
Up is down, bad is good, night is day.
I want to laugh. I can’t.
Some people read George Orwell as a cautionary tale.
Others read it as a manual.
Ya man
I fail to see the humor
They are trying to make our world in the Image of the reality that lives in Faux Nooze land
I believe you are correct here, I also think that the GOP, writ large is (has been) complicit in Russian assistance -(IE. Roherbacher). When Mueller presents indisputable evidence of conspiracy, watch what the repugs do.
Protect America, or commit treason…It really is that simple.
Maybe they’re hiding in the mansion!
