The 45th POTUS - Donald J. Trump

[bune]

Basically they went from participating in the event to protesting it. And bringing in people who were not vetted. And used expired press credentials for some.

serious question: who do you fine more repugnant and dangerous, donald trump or mitch mcconnell?

Repugnant, Trump. Dangerous, McConnell.

I think even the most squirrel brained of them can go ahead and admit that is/was/has always been about Clinton and not secure data.

*a woman

And especially a woman with the last name of Clinton.

substantial speculation on twitter that everyone who stormed the SCIF yesterday won't ever pass clearance for higher levels of security access

13 of those dumb motherfuckers already had access to the proceedings, and I'd be shocked if they don't remain on committee. This was a pizza party with no consequences.

Can you elaborate on "they already had access"?

My understanding is some of the idiots at the pizza party yesterday were members of the committee or at least had access to the content of the testimony. It's a bipartisan process. Republicans have representation in the process.

You captured it. 13 of the 41 Republicans who righteously chanted “let us in” and stormed the SCIF are on committees that give them the right to sit in on any and all of these testimonies. It was purely about interrupting testimony and trying to create a Brooks Brothers Riot-slash-Justice Kavanaugh rallying point to help their dismal election standing.

BREAKING: The U.S. deficit hit $984 billion in 2019, soaring during Trump era

“This is the first time in our history that we are seeing a boom in the economy at the same time deficits are rapidly rising. It’s alarming,” said Marc Goldwein, senior policy director of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, which supports reducing the deficit.

Trump. Your CONSERVATIVE President.

I'd prefer the corn stalk as president.

This would have been a great way to reveal Palpatine in the new movie

Rudy Giuliani's butt isnt the hero we need, but it is the hero we deserve.

hmm...any chance the sale of the hotel is related to their needing money?

Yer a wizard Rudy

“And the Ukraine, they’re investigating him and they blocked it twice. So what the president was [unintelligible word], ‘You can’t keep doing this. You have to investigate this.’ And they say it will affect the 2020 election.”

[McParadigm]

This is why you might choose disrupt hearings and prevent testimony, rather than try to win on merit:

WASHINGTON — Grilled under oath for dozens of hours on Capitol Hill, at least three current and former U.S. officials have all made the same startling admission: a coveted White House visit for the new Ukrainian leader had been explicitly conditioned on his agreeing to investigations that could have helped President Donald Trump’s re-election.

And when Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, was asked point blank, under oath, whether that constituted a "quid pro quo," he did not dispute it, people with knowledge of his testimony said.

A portrait is emerging of a quid pro quo that evolved over time, with the president progressively upping the ante when his demands were not met.

What started as a bid to leverage Zelenskiy’s hopes for a White House meeting took on added dimensions as the Ukrainian leader mentioned his desire to buy Javelin missiles from the United States and Trump, in a separate move, put $391 million in military aid on hold.

Both acting U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bill Taylor and former White House official Fiona Hill testified that by early July, the Ukrainians had learned from Trump’s emissaries that Zelenskiy wouldn’t get a White House visit unless he agreed to Giuliani’s demand that he publicly commit to investigate supposed Ukrainian interference in the 2016 election and Burisma, the natural gas company tied to former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter.

Zelenskiy never did commit to the investigations, and wasn’t granted his White House visit.
