At this point the Republican party should be actively behind getting Trump impeached. Things would be "business as usual" if Pence took over. What has Trump done so far besides just create controversy and get his racist immigration bans overturned?

Anything earth shattering yet or just things we know/knew?

Comey confirmed there is an open FBI investigation into ties and possible collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign, but nothing beyond that.

They're afraid of Trump's base. Until Trump's approval numbers among Republican voters start falling, then the party is not going to abandon Trump.

Nothing earth shattering but finally confirmation there is an actual ongoing investigation into Trump and his Campaign since Comey said he won't comment on ongoing investigations.

Aside from Comey confirming an FBI investigation, I sincerely doubt we'll get anything "earth shattering". They've specifically stated they won't be discussing classified matters or anything that hasn't been reported on publicly or made part of the public record.

it's lose lose for them at this point, they're just trying to avoid the nuclear scenario.

The biggest revelation we were likely to get from this whole thing was solid confirmation from Comey that the FBI were, in fact, actively investigation Trump/Russia ties and how those may or may not have affected the election - and that's what we got :)
 
So Comey confirmed there is an investigation into Russia/Trump ties, but it's ongoing and there have been no conclusions at this time.

Aaaaaand that's it?

At this point, I really don't understand why they don't.

Well, scratch that, I do understand somewhat, but goddamn, does this party truly have zero foresight into what this is going to do to their party in the future? I mean, fuck dude, at some point you just got to walk away from the game.

You want him to bring in law enforcement and arrest people immediately?
lol
 
GOP has gotta be in the biggest rock and a hard place situation right now.

This isn't Trump boasting about sexual assault, this is fucking TREASON. They have to break ties.

Take the heat for all the trash they want rubber stamped.

They've only just begun testimony and havent even gotten to Comey/FBI. You're not getting much more juicy info if thats what youre expecting.

That's the best news we could've hoped for. The fact that he even admitted there was an ongoing investigation is big

Why didn't Comey confirm that there's no evidence to support the Obama wiretap? Or did I miss that in his statement?

Anything bigger than that is likely to be highly classified information and would not be discussed in an open hearing.
 
We also might see another knife stuck into the surveillance at the Trump Tower claim. There's not been anything officially on record from Comey denying it, just anonymous sources if I remember right.

nothing new has been said

You have the FBI director confirming he is investigation collusion between the President's campaign and Russia. The FBI doesn't investigate these things unless they have enough probable cause.

The badass looking dude in the blue suit behind Rogers who seems confused/angry 100% of the time is awesome.

The random woman with a pink phone filming/taking pics, less so.
