I watched about 60% of the spectacle, and can say that there has to be some celebrating going on in the WH tonight.

If the dims try for impeachment/conviction based on this CF?  The whole lot of them are as stupid as AOC and SJL.

And the Dim congresscritters were just peachy-keen widdat. No threats of jail time for not testifying,not time-outs with fines,etc,etc,etc.

Who knew the Dims could be so understanding?

Adam Schiff's mother should be beaten and put in prison for not drowning that slimeball at birth.

Schiff was the inspiration for twin beds.

The news reports in New York have begun the shift to a new Russian narrative (no doubt as a result of this mornings testimony). It’s subtle, but unmistakable. Since the Mueller report found no collusion, news announcers instead are saying Trump “welcomed” Russian help during the 2016 election. No more of this overused and impotent “collusion” language. They’ll get Trump on welcoming Russian help.

I wonder what it will get called when the IG points out that the Democrats paid for help from foreign nationals to try to sink a presidential campaign.

The whole "didn't exonerate" line of questioning is absolutely maddening.  It is absolutely impossible for a prosecutorial investigation in a society without 1984-level surveillance to exonerate anyone of having at some point in a long span to time committed any instance of a specified crime.  How, for instance, with today's level of surveillance, could a prosecutor prove that any particular poster to this board did not commit petty theft sometime in the past two years?  Simply put they couldn't.

It won't be called anything.  It will be send down the memory hole.

That's what has happened so far.  When the IG report is issued, and the Senate (in all likelihood) has hearings, it's going to get more publicity than the left would like.

That's one of the many reasons I can't imagine they would really go for impeachment.  All that stuff will come out publicly if they do.  But, then they don't appear to be too bright...

I’m not sure it would, since the democrats would be in charge of the impeachment process since they control the House.  With control of the process comes control over what comes in as evidence.

I'm still holding out some hope, that beyond the IG report, we actually see some indictments of key figures by Barr-Durham.  That will certainly be difficult to hide.

I believe that it was Nunes that tried to get Mueller to comment on Mifsud....  very interesting fellow:

  Interesting indeed! And I'm pretty sure I know why the swamp doesn't want us to become too familiar with him.

He knows where the bodies are buried, just like any given Clinton.  Let's hope Nunes opened a door about Mueller's Weismann's selective outrage at being lied to.

If we learnt one new thing in yesterday's hearing, it was the fact that Mueller was not in charge of the investigation, because he was thoroughly unfamiliar with the contents of the report bearing his name.

That is VERY true @Cyber Liberty.  I like what former congressman Gowdy had to say about that.  "The guy who learned the most about the Mueller report today (now yesterday) was Robert Mueller."

A basic tenet of logic states that a negative cannot be proven.  But then we are dealing with liberals here, so logic is useless.

THIS is the smoking collusion gun.  Democrats colluded with the Russians, and agan with the Ukrainians.
