Bomb Shells. Yawn....

[Ouchthatonehurt]

More shell than bomb.

I think the media has a pile of October surprises they’ve been building up, and will let some loose as needed.

As will Trump.
The media is nowhere near as powerful as they think they are.
Proof? The relentless almost 100% vicious attacks against President Trump for three straight years, only for President Trump to have his highest approval ratings ever just this past week.

[jazzlite]

The Dems played their cards in the House and in the impeachment charges they sent to the Senate. They could have called Bolton and other witnesses during that process. They chose not to. Now, this whole fake set up to stop this President from doing his work and from winning again, needs to be dismissed for the sake of the survival of this nation. An election will take place in 9 months which will determine which President our people want in office. Please, Senator McConnell, do not allow this to go on longer. Take the vote and be done with this vile episode in our history. As far as the four Senators who are holding out for more of this travesty, the one I am most hurt for is Senator Collins. I remember when she stepped up to the plate and gave an awesome address during the crooked, fake situations drummed up against Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh. She restored my faith in my country at that moment. God, please help her to do it again.

I heard a rumor the Aswan dam is leaking. I wonder if the rat 🐀 bastards think 🤔 it’s Trump’s fault? 👎

So true... thank you for pointing this out.

Felt broke so many laws, zero accountability

[trebb]

Dershowitz poured so much cold water on the “Bolton bombshell”, his book will tank and his testicles will take a month to drop back down...

[Caipirabob]

Awww, poor lefties...

[C19fan]

I do not know whose idea was to bring Bolton into the White House. Given Bolton’s background as a Grade A War Monger and on the Board of the Neo-Con Bombs Away Corporation I know that was a horrible move. I wonder if this whole thing was a setup. This a true stabbed in the back moment.

[laconic]

And after it came out that Felt was “Deep Throat”, his execrable daughter and grandson went on tv to demand compensation for his treachery. I have thirty pieces of silver for them and for Bolton.

[C19fan]

The Purer than White Bolton claimed he was uncomfortable with Trump trying to make nice with the leaders of Turkey and China by throwing them some bones. AS IF that has never happened before. Good God I hate these so called Republican Do-Gooders like Romney and Bolton who have not spent one dat in the real world.

The reviewers received 1 copy on Dec 30th. Let's say 2 days to read.

Could that be the delay with getting the impeachment papers to the Senate?

I'm reading Vindman's twin as being one of the reviewers but don't know if it is true.

If it were me, I'd check the manuscript for fingerprints......to start.

Obvious, there's a traitor in the Whitehouse. Friggin' unbelievable.

I do NOT believe Bolton wrote what they're saying. It's Fake News.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

The facts are that the aid was sent to Ukraine, and they didn’t have to investigate Biden or even announce an investigation to get it. Unless Bolton can offer testimony that refutes those facts, he has nothing to offer.

[Sacajaweau]

I've been saying right along....the Dems do NOT want witnesses. They're just playing a game...If you don't call witnesses...it's a cover up.

Nitty gritty....when voting for witnesses, I believe Dems are already designated to cross over so that it doesn't happen.

BECAUSE....we will call the Whistle Blower. He does NOT have absolute anonymity.

[McGavin999]

So.....Bolton was a confidential council to the president and he is going to tell all? What a disgusting creep. Move that damn NSC out of the White House now. Disband it completely. It’s a den of vipers and Bolton appears to be King Cobra. What a POS

[DarthVader]

This is what they hope for and have not prepared for their worst nightmare scenario which is what they are going to get.

[Sacajaweau]

I think you’re right. Bet Schitt has a copy, too....cuz I think he’s been silent.

[CatOwner]

A swift acquittal of Trump is their worst nightmare.

They have nothing to worry about because their won't be a swift acquittal.

[Sacajaweau]

No such thing as “Private” in the Barr world. You put it in writing or it doesn’t mean a thing. He’ll read it and then you can talk privately.
