I watch for the same reason I always have:
“Know your enemy”.
Yeah, his breathless agenda made me turn off the rest of his show. What a creep. Where is any explanation of what was discussed at that 20 min meeting and why it is nothing. She is likely a Dem plant who was at the meeting to justify getting wiretaps on the Trump campaign.
The Lynch JD most likely knew about it and issued wiretaps and is who leaked the meeting.
I think appointment of a SC was inevitable, there is and was a need to dispose of the investigations that Comey revealed to the public on March 20th. Trump appointees would not be trusted by the press, to deal with those. The SC has to run its course. The thing to push for is speedy resolution, and the more people working on the project, the faster it is wrapped up.
Trump has consistently said he wants the investigation, it is the only way he can clear the accusation by innuendo.
If he fires Mueller, the "guilty" and "hiding something" accusations goe up by a factor of 100.
After voting numerous times to vote down/repeal obamacare and then putting up something completely different Ryan has successfully screwed us over meeting the mandates of his Deep State roots.
Bottom line for Rand Paul he has no answers and his DNA being as defective as it is will mandate he vote "no".
There are two pience of that. A claim by one of the Russians that Clinton dirt was provided, some sort of file folder or binder of information. That claim is disputed, but it taken as factual by the press.
The other part is DJT, Jr.'s description of what went on. That description is dismissed, by the press, as contentions made by a liar.
There is no good HC bill. You are going to have a bad bill or a worse one. Make it as good as you can and move forward. The Dems broke the insurance industry and like Humpty Dumpty there is no fixing it.

Jay Sekulow on Russia meeting: If this was nefarious, why'd the Secret Service allow these people in? http://abcn.ws/2tYOdH0 #ThisWeek
Yet whatever comes out of Hillary or Obama’s mouths is considered gospel. Looks like Fox is following the CNN Russia, Russia, Russia model. Should work equally as well since they have become unwatchable.
You are probably right but if anyone could get away with it Trump would be the one.
Then again it could be tough for the hard left world of driveby journalism to fight for following the letter of the law with their track record.
The alternative is let 15 others all who want his demise to decide what will be researched and what will be submitted as a final verdict by the special prosecutor in Oct. of next year which is more likely than in a few months.
I still say Ryan has purposely sabotaged us for years and at this point I don't see any way out of a bad situation.
Britt Hume makes a great case! He says “are you going to cast a vote to leave obamacare free in place or not”?
Excellent point of what the choices are.
Rhambo’s brother “Zeke” now BSing like mad to Wall ass.
I guess McNuts, with his recent, Senate vote-stopping surgery, won’t be on the tube today.
As slimy and dishonest as Schiff is, the media had to use him versus someone like Kaine babbling about treason. They are walking that back. Schiff is forced to talk about Trump's asking Russia for the 33k emails (it was a joke, but the media lost their sense of humor long ago) because that is all he's got. He says Trump Jr is a criminal but the only crime he can name is solicitation of a foreign campaign contribution.
In an objective evaluation, the approach from the Russians was an offer, but Trump Jr did not solicit. Schiff keeps hinting about the classified briefings he was privy to, but listening to him carefully on C-SPAN I have to conclude there was nothing extra in those briefings.
Let’s make it so easy even Chris Wallace can understand it. A Russian adoption attorney who was given special entrance by Lynch used the Clinton crime story as bait to pitch her adoption sanctions being lifted request.
She may have been there to help Comey get FISA to allow taps on the Trump campaign, but most likely it was this woman wanting to get the adoption sanctions lifted if Trump won.
BTW, thanks for watching and summarizing the swill so I don’t have to watch.
I too am frustrated about the inability of the RINOs to repeal Obamacare.
But blaming/disparaging a politician whom you do not vote for in your local elections it totally inappropriate.
who is your local U.S. Rep., Florida has Maro Rubio (recently re-elected) and the Democrat who is up for re-elections in 2018.
Ask not what your country can do for you, but get out there and champion someone who believes and will vote for a LIMITED FEDERAL G'ment in your LOCAL Elections
Makes sense from her perspective, she is all about making and keeping those contacts to push her issues. Hard to imagine it is more than that.
And to get to that point, you have to take Goldstone's characterizations (purpose of meeting and sentiment of Russian government) as truthful and accurate.
Goldstone's characterizations are treated as an article of faith, by the press. They are true because they are in the email, I guess.
-- Schiff keeps hinting about the classified briefings he was privy to, but listening to him carefully on C-SPAN I have to conclude there was nothing extra in those briefings. --
it's the same old insinuation by omission that has been used for ages. Comey used it to cast shade on Trump. "Can't tell you in public" naturally leads to a leap that what is there, is bad. Congressional Committees deliberately use this technique to slime Trump, and they hide behind "no negative inference should be taken," then go out in public for the purpose of cultivating negative inference.
The President should start off with issuing directives to Mueller. Such as any and all immunity deals must be made public and approved by the DOJ and no secret deliberations allowed.
Sessions could help but he is starting to seem like a self serving swamp creature.
