Couple days for the Manafort indictment, within a couple days. I think I picked Halloween, I believe he was arrested on the 29th or 30th. I believe we will see an arrest on the hill before May, who knows Trump himself could be gone by then. (Of course so could we by then unfortunately).

“There’s two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump,” McCarthy (R-Calif.) said, according to a recording of the June 15, 2016, exchange, which was listened to and verified by The Washington Post. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher is a Californian Republican known in Congress as a fervent defender of Putin and Russia.

House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) immediately interjected, stopping the conversation from further exploring McCarthy’s assertion, and swore the Republicans present to secrecy.

and then there's the one who refused to have a hearing for Obama's Supreme Court nominee. His wife just happened to receive a Cabinet position. He also refused a bipartisan approach to Russian meddling.

I say LOCK THEM ALL THE FUCK UP!

Fall is coming and lots of folks will be falling from their perches.

If the shoe were on the other foot.... Just imagine Fox and and their cultclan going with this relentlessly,the way they did Benghaziemailckintonfoundationwiener, with the rest of the libmed slavishly following suit

Why are there no dems who just refuse to let this die, or is it just that the libmed has su+h a cap on stories like this, there’s no way for it to get out

How come there’s no coverage on MSNBC, at the very least? When’s the last time it was discussed? Fox would NEVER let this go

Just imagine....change a few names:

House speaker Pelosi immediately interjected, stopping the conversation from further exploring Wiener’s assertion, and swore the Democrats present to secrecy.

What better way to strike fear into the hearts of those in positions of authority than to go after their underlings? That would instill more fear into the hearts of the lead traitors and cause them to make very public mistakes. It also helps convince those avoiding reality that this is real and pervasive. It changes public perception and promotes a groundswell of opposition among those who have been avoiding reality.
