You guys feed on lies. You don't even care about the truth. Right wing media takes a shit in your mouth and you spit it in other people's faces and tell them it smells so, so good.


Your demented fantasies are not an argument.

Schiff claimed to have personal knowledge of Trump-Russian collusion, right up until it was revealed he didn't, and you promptly forget he said anything at all.

A notorious leaker complaining about some Congressman storming a hearing is beyond ironic.

I'm no legal expert, but my 2-cents...

I think they should be allowed to access the facility anytime without authorization since they are top representatives of the states/districts constituents who have empowered them.

The security clearance negligence is very sad to see, but a strong precedence has already been set around having lax security practices defying policy/law... so like you said I don't think any of them will see repercussions.

Adam Schiff is a bad actor running secret impeachment hearings after repeatedly lying about classified information to the American public, lying about his relationship with the whistleblower, and cherry picking information to leak, all to push his partisan agenda to unseat the president.

These secret hearings should not be supported. People standing up against these secret sham hearings should be commended, not removed from office.

Pretending this is somehow a super extreme-right or bad position to hold is illegitimate and inaccurate.


What secret impeachment

Its on the news all the time

give one branch unrestricted access to another isn't a check and balance. that's a hierarchy where the legislature rules over the executive branch.

the legislature has checks on the executive branch, but the layers of clearances and such stop it from getting out of hand. they're cumbersome and in some cases nefarious, but they do also serve a purpose.

I mean elected officials can claim unsubstantiated BS about someone for years and even after it's proven to be BS nothing happens.

Pretty crazy how you can call the president a Russian asset for years lobby for an investigation costing millions and throw the country in a partisan tailspin citing unverified fanfic as proof and walking away without any charges/ramifications.

So with that considered, lawmakers trolling these same disinformation peddlers is appropriate and laudable.

which national security breaches did the democrats commit while exercising their freedom of speech during the Mueller phase of Trump's presidency.

basically what you just said boils down to "last time we played you used that lame strategy that the rules shouldn't allow (but do) so this game i'm breaking the rules".

Two wrongs don't make a right. Did they not teach you that?

Anyway, have you read any of the testimony that's been released by the committees? Do you not see any problems with it?
