President Trump hasn’t tried to assassinate Elmi, Comey, Swalwell, Brennan, Slotkin and the other Seditious Six, Pence, Rice, Obama, Clapper, etc.

Some people said something?
Again, the time for playing fair is over.
FR has had the hiccups for the last week or so.
Sure, if she does a Bolsanaro and leaves the country. Otherwise, no. Even her Squat-mates know they’ve got her, which is why they’re not burning any political capital to save her.
Hahahahahaha! Excellent!
It doesn’t matter. The investigation has already accomplished what it set out to do.
