Pretty sure that, given Burr’s history of running to the WH with info, Mark Warner would be raising a red flag. This might be legit or.
Near the conclusion of “Howards End”, Forster comments on Leonard’s sorry state:
“Society is based on the family, and the clever wastrel can exploit this indefinitely.”
I don’t know of a single sentence that more accurately describes each and every Trump that ever lived.
I don’t keep close tabs on Burr, but he seems to have been at least going through the motions of investigating. Even while Nunes in the House was releasing his sham memo, declaring the investigation kaput, Burr was still calling in witnesses and requesting documents. Sen. Mark Warner, the ranking member of the committee, seems to be more on board with Burr’s actions than Rep. Adam Schiff ever was with Nunes’ nonsense.
This might be a first .
Trump Jr. being called to testify in front of an Intelligence Committee.
He,Trump Jr. knows nothing about intelligence.
This may be OT, but as long as we’re talking about a moron, we may as well have a laugh at two of his brothers-in-arms:
Yes, Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman held their long-awaited, earth-shattering press conference, and they got drowned out by sanitation workers, who forgot to haul their skanky asses away along with the trash cans by the curb.
The good news…
The word “Russia” appeared in the headline.
The bad news
The words “subpoena” and “Trump Jr” also appear
I mean, what is the point here? What new information do they expect to get from Jr? Do they really even expect him to turn up? is this all just political theater?

It’ll be an Executive Privilege claim, for sure, due to anything involving Jr. acting on behalf of his dad…
[/quote]Which makes perfect sense when Jr. was not and is not a government employee or advisor in any governmental capacity, and the Trump Tower deal was completely private and had nothing to do with government business. But a corrupt con-man has gotta do what he’s gotta do to try to protect himself.
Bullshit. The Trump Tower deal was explicitly government business. A direct exchange for the lifting of government sanctions.
And all of this shit happened BEFORE he was elected, so how does privilege even enter the picture?
I’m going to put on my tin-foil conspiracy hat here, and suggest that Trump Sr. wanted Junior subpoenaed so that there are more stories about more subpoenas and more sternly worded letters and more threats of contempt of congress…
because Sr doesn’t want us talking about the Russia attack coverup
odds of lying? bigly
odds of being to stupid not to lie? bigly big
odds of being led down the yellow brick road by the deplorable’s? bigly big huge
he probably already has the questions and answers as this gop setup was realized.
McConnell will name him the “termination kid”. as in, There is nothing more, lets move on.
Just a reminder that Burr was the Devin Nunes in the senate per Mueller Report!
That said, did DJTJ refused to go back to “clarify” his previous congressional statement?
And will DJT aka Individual1 instruct his son to ignore the subpoena?
Or will DJTJ plead the fifth?
If it’s what the senate intelligence committee says, I love it!
Sing with ABBA to get the connection…
Russia, change your mind. I’ll be more than kind,
You’ll be sanctions-free,
Take a chance on me.
You’ll make lots and lots of dough with me by your side.
Russian oil and gas will flow, selling far and wide.
Don’t be all alone, just pick up that special phone,
Call across the sea,
Take a chance on me.
Anything you wish is swell, whether big or small,
I just want a Trump Hotel in your capital.
Take a chance on me,
(that’s all I ask of you, Putin)
Take a chance on me.
If he does show up, which I doubt, since he is a coward like his father, and the hearing is public, which I doubt, for the same aforementioned reason (and you know the GOP is going to go out of their way not to offend the Trump Spawn), I can already imagine the first question out of the drooling lips of the Dowager Empress of South Carolina:
“My dear Mr. Trump, could you please tell this committee how wonderful it is to be the son of our lovely and talented President?!”
A good backgrounder on Jr.
JR will sAy numBer 5 aNd LibTards will cry LibTard tears beCaUse your aLLsnowfLake cucks.
Their aim is to show that our entire intelligence system is against the law.
Because it catches Republicans scheming with criminals far, far too often. It’s ruining their reputation.
The lyrics are fine.
But now you’ve put a fucking ABBA song melody in my head and it will take several drinks to purge it.
No balloon for you, junior!
