Trump is a member of the elites and his head would be the first to roll.

I don’t see the problem with arresting them. That is blatantly violating the rules which they certainly all must know. It’s anarchy.

Hahahahahahahahahaha

Charge them and arrest when Congress is not in session.

McCarthy and Trump knew about it before it happened. McConnell was probably in on it, too.

I cannot fathom that members of Congress really think this is okay.

Who’s your congressman? First step in the process of elimination would be to see if he’s on the Intelligence, Foreign Affairs or Oversight Committees. If he is, then he’s participating in the hearings and therefore not part of this stunt.


David Joyce. I don’t believe he sits on any of those committees. I have always considered him somewhat reasonable, and would be very disappointed if he participated in this.


Is this him? Hard to tell...

Taking bets on whether they hid a recording device. Seems like a pretty quick sweep to secure the place.

Oh my gosh, they have lost their ever lovin' minds.

Yesterday the outrage was about Trump using the term lynching with regard to impeachment and then it turned out that several Democrats used the same term to describe the Clinton impeachment including Biden!

Such a lot of phony outrage!


Something is wrong with you that you are not outraged.

This is the important word in your sentence. There's no "thinking" there.

There are 40 GOP reps in the room as well as several GOP committee attorneys. They are using the same rules that, for example, the Benghazi committee used. Why was it okay then, but not now? I never saw the dems illegally storming the SCIF in protest.

Ironically, there are, I think, 10 GOP reps who are on those committees who participated in the Trump sanctioned stunt.

Phony like our constitution.


Like I said, a constant state of outrage causes legitimate outrage to be dismissed.

Remember the boy who cried wolf .........


Again I ask you. Is this a legitimate outrage being obfuscated by excessive outrage or is this part of the outrage cloud of nonsense you are trying to denounce?


Of course, there are things that warrant outrage. I think Trump's putting the Kurds at risk is just terrible and inexcusable. But like I said Democrats go into a fit of outrage over anything and everything that Trump and the Republicans do. The net effect is that one gets desensitized to it.

BTW, i am not a Trump supporter. i did not vote for him but I know quite a few who have - some reluctantly - and trust me when I say they just ignore most of this faux outrage.


Why is this question so hard for you? Is tweeting from inside the SCIF outrage worthy or not?


I answered the question ..... it was not an answer that you liked. If national security was jeopardized it is a concern otherwise it is a procedural violation but hardly anything to get hysterical about.

Anyway, come tomorrow, this will recede into the background and we will have the next faux outrage of the day.


It is actually a Federal crime and is more egregious than anything Hillary did.
