Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) demanded Saturday that President Trump tell Russian President Vladimir Putin to "butt out" of U.S. elections.
"The next time President Trump that you talk to Putin tell him to butt out of our elections quit the cyber warfare interference in our democracy," Grassley wrote on Twitter.

Grassley's tweet came after special counsel Robert Mueller unsealed indictments against 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities on Friday for their roles in an effort to disrupt and influence the 2016 presidential election.
The indictments were the first in Mueller's investigation regarding Russia's role in the election an investigation that Trump has rebuked as a "witch hunt" and a "hoax."

And yesterday, oh hell or today, H.R. McMaster told an international audience that the evidence of Russian meddling in the 2016 American election is beyond dispute.
So uh, okay then.

He was back thinking of ways to obstruct Mueller's investigation and deport more PoC.
Shameless and useless.

(24,735 posts)1) you have voted affirmative for everyone his choices to be judges, and in his traitorous cabinet
2) you have the gavel to call this traitor and everyone involved into the committee to answer questions, and not behind closed doors , and not have "five" minute question period starters ..................
3) you are worthless, you and your side kick graham, have attacked the FBI and the DOJ, when it came to the Steele dossier, and now that Mueller has now basically confirmed that there have been fucking spies involved in the attack on this republic, what the fuck did you do for over a fucking year, I know what you did, you stuck your fucking finger in the air, to see what kind of bull shit the wind was blowing to provide fucking "cover" for your malignant sociopath traitor, who is a sexual predator, that has over 130 individuals that have no fucking security clearance-------------but you asshole was and have been running interference to protect and project the Fox News propaganda shit, and your fucking leader with the orange hair.................................
So in closing in this rant------------------FUCK YOU-----------your a fucking disgrace, and I hope that when you show up for your town halls this coming week, your constituents tell you that, and how much you are a fucking right wing fascists and a disgrace.
And if you were running today, that your would not be elected and should behind bars in your dereliction to the Constitution, after all you fucked the America people when you and the turtle fucked a former president (OBAMA) and the citizens of this republic, to have his Constitutional right to the rule of law when it came to the advise and consent section of the Constitution......................
So FUCK YOU.................you tell Putin to butt out..................and do something about it..............that's your fucking job asshole, your "leader " isn't going to do shit.................or haven't you figured that out...............
And finally Chuck..................you have the means and the power to do something about the up coming election's why haven't you, because Chuck your an enabler and full of the proverbial shit------------you can call a hearing next week.............
I have a suggestion........................why not paper ballots to protect this up coming and mid terms and the presidential, that would be a start asshole ......................
November 2018 cannot get here fast enough

(24,735 posts)I don't like him he is a total failure, he has not done his elected job to protect and defend the Constitution, none of the republicans in my opinion have done this------------they are enablers to treason, they are more concerned about party power, than the republic and the greed associated with it, they don't care.
Then he runs around with that "oh shucks mentality", the facade, that he portrays, he is dangerous, and he is a right wing fascists ideologue.
He (Chuck) has the power to have this traitor and his "crew" brought before a hearing and have it go live, because back in the day, all hearings were live, and there was no time limit..............to have people answer questions, and they have the right to plead the fifth.
We are not getting this, you and I and everyone else that sees what is transpiring knows how this going to end, but the damage to the rule of law will take a very long time to mend itself, because the republicans have, what is no better word for it "bastardized" the rule of law, for a very long time to maintain power.
This needs to be laid right at the republican leadership feet , everyday, they have the "power" to demand these hearings, and seek and find answers, they have failed, this 240 year old democracy is under attack, and these enablers of the deplorable's are really doing nothing, Paul "ayn rand" Ryan knew that Nunes was going over to the white house to deflect and subvert the process and he, Paul "ayn rand" Ryan approved the use of money from foreign entities agents (Russia) to be used in ads in the Florida congressional election, this in my opinion says everything about Paul "ayn rand " Ryan and how he is a traitor and the republicans are in lock step with treason.
And there is this information on what Joy Reid and her guest Natasha Bertrand, says about Paul Ryan the republicans and what happened in Florida..............and the Russian hacking, because Ryan is second in command of the RNC and the election committees for that party, they used weaponize hacks from a FSB agent.............that in my opinion is treason.
I can still remember getting the "Trump is God" message when I opened DU on election day, and from that moment forward I had a feeling that the election had been compromised, more than you and I and everyone else on this site knew, and I look at it from the stand point that this malignant narcissistic sexual predator and his traitorous team knew, and where high fiveing each other that they thought they pulled it off, and now we are seeing the result in a senate that confirms people that have no business being on the bench, or in any public service role or job.......................
There are more of US than them......................and we will win, they just haven't figured out what is hitting them right now, we have flipped over 36 seats, and more is to come , we need to get out and vote, this republic and its form of 240 year old democracy depends on even with all of its flaws

I have all this bottled up inside of me.. Yes, I knew on Nov 8th when DU went down that we were screwed. This election was stolen and the GOP is nothing less than the American Nazi party.
Thank you for putting it all into words for me. There are more of us than them.. my mantra everyday.
