Top Judiciary Republican @RepDougCollins sends a letter to Nadler warning Dems ahead of next week's hearing not to violate the rules of the House to impugn other lawmakers (or the President). Letter is here (link: https://gallery.mailchimp.com/0275399506e2bdd8fe2012b77/files/06bc5c9c-c5c6-4ca8-b767-3b7bec29897e/06.07.19_DAC_Nadler.01.pdf?utm_source=Collins+Judiciary+Press+List&utm_campaign=261336858e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_06_07_03_35&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ff92df788e-261336858e-169041401) gallery.mailchimp.com/0275399506e2bd…

1. Republicans sending warnings?

Who knew. They are a bunch of reactionaries. Fuck them.

Go forth grasshopper.

[DeminPennswoods]

2. Nadler should read the letter aloud at the start of

the hearing just so everyone knows what words not to use when describing Trump.

[Miles Archer]

4. The letter is pretty brutal

It basically says that anything short of calling Trump "Glorious Leader" is forbidden.

[RainCaster]

10. They left out "motherfucker" and "Pervert One"

So the committee can use that all they like.

[panader0]

5. That seems like great idea to me!

[malaise]

12. Ditto

I hope he reads it out loud

[DeminPennswoods]

18. Might be funnier if Nadler asks Collins to read it

nt

[Progressive Jones]

14. Absolutely. Put it into the Congressional Record. nt

[triron]

3. Screw him.

[dmr]

6. Their arrogance ...

I am speechless ...

I'm also sick of this bullshit.

[bmpbmp]

7. Trying to remember...

Who is the guy incessently attacking Nadler and all the Dems on the committee?

Whoever that was broke a ton of these rules. Maybe Collins should attack THAT guy!

[cwydro]

8. We keep giving them inches, and they keep leaping ahead by miles.

I wish Nadler would read that aloud. I also hope it gets some media attention.

This is fucking outrageous.

[CanonRay]

9. Don't give them shit.Ever.

[shanti]

11. Kick n/t

[kentuck]

13. Yeah, don't say anything about a blue dress?

Or what the children might think?

[dalton99a]

15. Democrats should tell Doug Collins to go fuck himself.

[malaise]

19. Elections have no meaning to these fascists

He thinks they're still in charge

[Wounded Bear]

16. The really funny part of this...

is that, by and large, the Repubs are much more likely to use that kind of language than Dems.

After all, Dems normally conform to norms and rules of polite behavior, unlike their "friends" across the aisle.

Except that it really isn't funny. It's more projection on their part, and the bullshit demand that others follow rules that they don't.

[trev]

17. The fear has infected all of them.

They are definitely scrambling.

[DFW]

20. To emulate their AG, I will hereby provide the condensed version of Collins' letter

"Dear Jerry,

If you guys keep pointing out what an incompetent lying sleazeball Trump is, we are going to got our asses handed to us next year unless you initiate impeachment proceedings prematurely. So back off and cut us a little slack, will ya? We're desperate here!"
