House Speaker Paul D. Ryan on Wednesday called WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange a “sycophant for Russia,” as Mr. Assange reiterated this week that Russia was not the source for internal communications from Democratic officials during the presidential campaign.

Mr. Ryan told radio host Hugh Hewitt that he really has no opinion on Mr. Assange, “other than I think the guy is a sycophant for Russia.”

This Guy has to Go

[9YearLurker]

I despise Paul Ryan.

[MamaDearest]

Paul Ryan = wannabe Democrat Party Leadership

[jiggyboy]

This is why we can’t yet trust the new Congress to work with Trump. Isn’t this the same kind of accusation without facts that we’ve been seeing from the leftists for six weeks?

[Jack Hammer]

Paul Ryan is clearly an utter mediocrity - is this guy the best we can do?

[jospehm20]

Paul Ryan encapsulates everything that is wrong with the GOP establishment in one sleazy package.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Pauly RINO is a stooge for the Cheap Labor Express

[silverleaf]

Assange is a hero
Something of which Ryan has no personal experience

Suppose just for a moment that the source of the leaked e mails was a US government employee. That employee just might be working for a security agency that was thought to be secure and controlled by Obama commissars.

Was Ryan involved in the attempt to abolish that independent agency? Even if he wasn't, it might be even worse because he didn't have the ability to stop it. I'm glad DJT called him out.

Ryan isn't going to come around. He's a globalist sellout and totally bought and paid for by that agenda. I'm glad DJT isn't making nice when Ryan isn't providing proper leadership to promote DJT's priorities.

[knarf]

Why is he even there ?

[Louis Foxwell]

Ryan is an Obama sycophant+, marginally worse.

[Redleg Duke]

I suppose that is the DC UniParty position.

[Diogenesis]

The new GOP chose this POS, who helps
ISIS and al Qaeda over real conservatives.

Why?

Because they are stupid, stupid, stupid.

[ManHunter]

Every time Ryan opens his pie-hole, I hate him a little bit more. I’m at the point now where I wouldn’t piss on him if he were on fire.

[MNJohnnie]

I think Mr Ryan is showing himself another wholly owned subsidiary of the Saudis propaganda machine like McCain and Graham.

[goodnesswins]

Did Ryan say ANYTHING when the CHINESE stole thousands of US Government employee (former/current) Files in past year or so???? HHHMMMMMM

[MinuteGal]

As Speaker, was Ryan the one who allowed the aborted "ethics" bill to be presented at the utterly wrong time to embarass PE Trump and make the GOP house members look like asses at the same time?

As much as I dislike Ryan, I have to wonder: has Wikileaks ever published any information damaging to Russia? They seem to focus primarily on the United States.
