Holy shit, Paul Ryan just said he wants the memo.

I dream of an Ossoff win. But I'm not yet ready to start hoping for one. This news cycle is sure as shit going to help him though. I'll probably throw some more money his way next payday.

If this was actually serious, this whole set of shenanigans should not have been allowed to progress as far as it has.

As a non-American, I cannot grasp how something could be this fucked up, and still carry on, and get worse.

Because our "checks and balances" are corrupt, cowardly, treasonous pieces of shit.
 
25th Amendment being invoked? Resignation? Impeachment?

Place your bets now!

I've said it before and I'll say it again: thank god for Trump's ego which will inevitably prevent him from resigning. It's the only way anyone this guilty would get the full court public lashing and humiliation would deserve. Trump will be taken from the White House in cuffs if he doesn't try to flee the country first.
 
they needed like a bunch of bombshells at once rather than the usual one bombshell that would decimate any other politican, i guess trump really was the final boss

I tuned in and it was Brit Hume and Tucker attacking some anchor for defending anonymous sources against a shill

"we don't know if she bit him during the break"

oh, and the chyron was LIBERALS IN MELTDOWN MODE or something
I think that Tucker image was from yesterday. Or at least I first saw that image yesterday.
 
Both the WaPo and the NYT are on a fucking mission to shut up Trump lol

They're doing great but this administration also has a record number of leaker and the intelligence community is completely against Trump now. You don't fucking go up against your own intelligence agencies for no reason at all.

And you better be squeaky clean if you are up against intelligence.

Yeah. I don't think Trump's stupidity could continually be permitted to occur in any Western European nation... I cannot see any realistic solution to solving the hyper-partisan political atmosphere in the US right now.

His family will convince him to when it gets even closer to inevitable ... sadly.

This is all I can think of, I think we have actually hit the tipping point where he can't come back, because he just can't keep his mouth shut.

Yeah, if they lose Montana and Georgia, and if they keep getting angry donor calls, something might actually happen here.
 
This is a really bad timeline for Trump:

1. Meets with Comey, along with Pence and Sessions.
2. Tells Sessions and Pence to leave him alone with Comey.
3. Asks Comey to drop the FBI Investigation against Flynn, without Sessions or Pence in the room.
4. Fires Comey when Comey asks for more resources to continue with the investigation.
5. Threatens Comey not to release any tapes of their conversations.
6. Comey confirms Trump asked him to drop the FBI investigation.

=Obstruction of mutherfucking Justice in a hand basket.

---

NOW, Trump's potential defenses:

1. He said/He said. His words vs. mine. No actual recordings of the conversations.
2. Why did Comey wait until after he was fired to release his Memos? Why not bring this up to the Senate in February right after it happened? Why did he sit on this all this time?

-Ok, GAF - how will this all play out?

Will Republicans actually put Trump under the microscope? Or will they simply try to discredit Comey and bury the whole thing again?
