> scene after scene after scene
Rewind to this time last year:
Jul/Aug - DNC claims their system was hacked. “This is an attack on our democracy etc”. But NO YOU CAN’T INVESTIGATE IT, JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT. We say “it’s the Russians and Trump colluded with them” (zero evidence of Trump involvement, but it’s the seriousness of the charge) - Just take our word for it.
Sep - DNI Clapper takes their word for it. He takes a report produced by a Democrat connected company, dresses it up, and persuades Comey and Jeh Johnson to sign on to it. Disregard the fact that other vendors disputed the reports conclusions.
Nov/Dec - Clapper’s report is reissued with little new info just more terse language.
Dec - bogus dirty dossier released by DNC connected company
Jan-May Continuous Democrat caterwauling about “our democracy”, Russia Russia Russia, Trump collusion. Continuous CNN/WaPo/NYT smears
Mar - Crowdstrike retracts a large part of the report DNI relied upon
May/Jun - Comey fired, testifies there was a counterintelligence investigation and that Trump is not being investigated
Jun/Jul - Rosenstein appoints special council, special council investigates Trumps business deals and taxes from ten years ago, conducts taxpayer funded oppo research for Democrats (recall how during the campaign they repeatedly demanded to see his taxes because well Russia Russia Russia... without a shred of evidence, but we need to see those taxes so we can go fishing)
The script writers have spun this up out of nothing.
IF their system was hacked then an investigation MUST be allowed - otherwise the accusation is campaign rhetoric. Democrats can’t have it both ways, either “this is an attack on our democracy” which warrants investigation or it’s partisan accusations. They have refused investigation, which leaves only partisan rhetoric. Oh, and let’s not overlook the Awan gang, who very well may be the source of wikileak’s email, let’s not overlook DWS stonewalling, threats, and thwarting of that investigation.
Yes. Scene after scene after scene will be played out. The narrative will be maintained.
Boy, these guys really believe their little speeches are important, don’t they?
Pathetic.
Not to worry though, the Senate is taking August off. But just to stick it to Trump they will be in Session every three days. Can’t have Trump making any recess appointments. Oh and those 100 nominees... that can wait.
The Republican party... there are no words for these degenerates.
Aug 3 - Now Mueller will have the power to issue subpoenas for documents — the president’s long-withheld tax returns, for instance
