Wow,Rachel talking about how weird it was that Jason Chaffetz quit.

1. Boy when we get the full story on this

It will be one for the ages. Can't make this shit up.

[ThoughtCriminal]

12. The true, full story is probably exactly what we suspect.

- Putin owns Trump
- The tax returns would prove this and many other shocking facts about Trumps personal finances
- Putin's goons helped him get elected
- Trump and his minions were very much involved
- GOP Congressional leaders were and continue to be up to their eyeballs in a cover-up

But what gets exposed will probably fall far short of revealing even a fraction of this.

2. We're going to need a bigger boat (I mean jail).

[Tatiana]

3. There is another poster on here who is connecting the dots with Chaffetz.

He is truly an evil character and has been the ringleader of the witch-hunt against Hillary Clinton.

[SummerSnow]

4. yea, but why did he quit? Did Trump ask him to do something he felt was unethical?

[StevieM]

5. LOL, Chaffetz jumps at the chance to do unethical things, if it helps the GOP.

What kind of sick twist of fate landed this bastard in the same family as a great guy like Michael Dukakis?

[Tatiana]

13. I think he has been caught on surveillance.

Doing what, I don't know. But I think it's something that he would be ashamed of, and something that would cause him not to be re-elected.

6. Chaffetz drove the fake email scandal from beginning to end. Including the part where the FBI

was brought into the investigation. There was never any reason for that.

7. Rachel has a good show tonight

Senator Whitehouse was just on now Elijah Cummings.

[yallerdawg]

10. Sen. Whitehouse (D) said Deputy AG Rosenstein's "memo" may go down...

as one of the greatest, most passionate documents in American history!

Comey is a bad man.

Rosenstein, through Sessions and then Trump, ended a horrifying chapter in our history.

Yes, we have to be vigilant and loud about a replacement - but we can do that now that Comey is gone!!!!

[BumRushDaShow]

8. Cummings on

Called Drumpf's firing a "hocus pocus move".

(does this kind of stuff when something bad is coming down)

[gratuitous]

9. You know what else is weird?

"What the dog did in the night." "But the dog did nothing." "THAT is what is weird." Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson in the Adventure of Silver Blaze. The fact that the watchdog did not bark in the night tipped Holmes off to the identity of the villain.

Has anyone noticed what President Trump hasn't tweeted? Remember that one of his speech and tweet tics is to say that "nobody knows" what's going on about something, which almost always means that Trump doesn't know what's going on. He usually follows that up with a statement that everything needs to stop until "we figure out what's going on."

It's weird that so much is going on, but Trump hasn't tweeted that "nobody knows" what's going on, and he doesn't seem to be calling for anything to stop.

At least, I think it's weird.

11. Two days after the grand jury cases were opened/placed on the docket

The grand jury case in EDVA (that just produced subpoenas on Flynn) was filed on 4/17. If I were to wager a bet, I think that he found out about the grand jury cases and was spooked by them. He announced he was "quitting" on 4/19.

[Generic Other]

14. Maybe he thinks he will be the new head of FBI?

Him and Nunes.
