I don’t blame her. The Republicans will simply use the opportunity to try to shift the discussion to a completely irrelevant topic that may please Brietbart and the White House, but won’t add anything to what we know about what happened vis a vis the election meddling.
Now, Sally Yates, on the other hand…
Lawmakers from both sides of the aisle who have viewed classified documents pertaining to the Russia investigation say they have yet to see evidence that Rice did anything unusual.
But if they keep this BS up long enough many will believe SOMETHING must be there.
Graham told CNN earlier this week that he wanted to question Rice in order to determine if the Obama administration “tried to politicize intelligence.”
McConnell (In September): “something,something,something, if you guys go public, then im going to head to the press and accuse Obama of playing favorites, something,something…”
Trump: As I have maintained, Rice is the real mole. She is the one who worked with Russia to have me elected, knowing fully well that I am really incompetent.
Still too busy being not ashamed over how they treated Barry to do their jobs.
“Former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper will testify Monday.”
Maybe
The Republicans on this committee are as serious at getting at the truth of whether Trump operatives were complicit with Russia in influencing the election as they were about Benghazi. Any distraction will do, especially Rice because the GOP base especially hates all Obama administration African-American officials.
Thinking out loud: Rice wouldn’t be able to reveal any information, classified or otherwise, that was provided to the FISA court regarding the unmasking of anyone, right? So, for Graham to want to bring her forward for questioning, seemingly to try to determine if the Obama administration ‘tried to politicize intelligence,’ would be only for show and to score political points.
politicize
Well, Lindsey showed his lack of seriousness today and I must say the Senator, physically, looked bad, as if something’s seriously amiss inside aside from the obvious.
Why would any American, anywhere, want to be in government anymore?
The avoidance of government service by talented individuals, owing to the disrespect and punishment given to government employees by politicians and yowling conservatives who hate government, leads to a growing spiral of incompetence in the administration as morale weakens, workers get fed up and competent employees seek work elsewhere, leaving the incompetent to populate the system.
Looting.
My take-away from today’s Senate hearing?
No spousal photocopying…
Why would any decent American want to do anything to help a treasonous self serving conservative? Screw 'em.
Miss Lyndsey should be investigating the Trumpanzees and the head Bonobo for their selling America out to the lowest bidder.

All you need to do is look at the Trump Mafia Grift-O-Rama
It appears Rice doesn’t want to watch Miss Lindsey clutch his pearls and do some political grandstanding so she decided to stay home and “wash out a few things.” Good for her.
He was at McCain’s last night and it was a hard day’s felch.
So Trump/GOP simultaneously vomit up that the Obama administration should have gone public min 2016, and that somehow Rice did something wrong even though nothing was leaked or went public.
Ain’t doublethink grand?
have you stopped beating your wife? dilemma. If she comes, they ask a million nonsensical questions insinuating something nefarious. If she doesn’t come, they make a million non-sensical sound bites insinuating something nefarious.
For Lindsey to want to find out if someone is “politicizing” anything is the height of irony - the kind of irony that makes me want to “Gork” (throw up in the back of my throat)
