It still amazes me how people are stupid enough to lean into "Trump asked Russia to hack HRC".
I can't wrap my brain around the stupidity required to believe his joke was a request, or the dishonesty required to peddle the argument as anything other than a joke.
Well if we apply the same standard, Hillary has asked the CCP at least 2 times that I know of to get President Trumps tax filings. Maybe she should get the same treatment.Adam Ag 98 said:

Quote:
John Bash is the husband of Zina Bash, the woman sitting behind Brett Kavanaugh during his Senate confirmation process hearing on day one.
Bash is a U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Texas. Here's what you need to know.
1. Bash Took to Twitter to Denounce Those Who Believed His Wife Had Made a White Power Sign
A few hours after Twitter went viral with questions about Bash's hand position during Kavanaugh's hearing, John Bash took to Twitter to set the record straight.
2. Bash Was Sworn in by Brett Kavanaugh in April 2018
Bash has his own connection to Kavanaugh, outside of his wife's position. He was sworn in to his official position of chief federal enforcement officer for Central and West Texas by none other than Kavanaugh himself on April 12, 2018.
3. Bash Was the Prosecutor for the Austin Bombings
Bash had only just become U.S. Attorney when he had to prosecute Austin bomber, Mark Anthony Conditt, who was allegedly responsible for the series of bombings in Austin.
4. Bash Has Served as a Special Assistant to Trump in the Past
Prior to becoming U.S. Attorney for Central and West Texas, Bash was a special assistant to Trump as well as an associate White House counsel.
Bash has argued 10 cases before the Supreme Court, and also served as a law clerk to the late Antonin Scalia.
5. Bash Was a Law Clerk for Kavanaugh, Who Described Bash as 'Brilliant'
One of Bash's first positions after graduating from Harvard Law School in 2006 was a clerkship for Kavanaugh while he served on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Of Bash, Kavanaugh has said, "He's brilliant and quick and has an extraordinary knowledge of the law."
Quote:
The committee will vote on a "motion to authorize the Chairman to issue subpoenas for records and testimony to U.S. Government agencies and to individuals relating to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Crossfire Hurricane Investigation, the DOJ Inspector General's review of that investigation, and the 'unmasking' of U.S. persons affiliated with the Trump campaign, transition teams, and Trump Administration," according to the announcement of the vote.
A spokesman for Johnson said next week's vote would not be on individual subpoenas, but on giving the GOP senator subpoena issuing authority.
Swalwell has been very consistent in his willful misrepresentation of Trump's joke. He knows his supporters lack integrity, so he is a brazen pompous lying ****bag. It's disgusting that someone can be such a small person.Adam Ag 98 said:

Why is Barr bringing a new prosecutor for unmasking so late in the process? I find it hard to believe he just learned about it? Hopefully, the investigations are largely complete and the prosecutor was brought in to prepare indictments.
Now there are discovering so much more unmasking that goes outside Russia and who knows how far back in Obummer's reign of terror that they need to set up an entirely new prosecutorial team!
The Tracy Beanz Tweet will25u shared on the last page says they aren't just starting the investigation, it's just gotten to the point where it can't be hidden anymore. Perhaps that means indictments, maybe grand jury, I don't know, but it seems it isn't just starting.Old_Ag_91 said:OPAG said:If I understand correctly Huber was Clinton Foundatin stuff.

I'm just reading and following all y'alls posts so I'm nowhere near as knowledgeable on this, but OPAGs is kind of my understanding as well. I've been reading a lot of Brian cates, John Solomon, and listening to Dan Bongino.
It seems like a lot of this has been ongoing for a while but it's time for it to become more public so Americans can start taking in what maybe they haven't been following for the past 2-3 years. Time for people to wake up and smell what's been the stench of the previous 8 year administration. Remember not a "smidgen" of scandal or corruption.. not a smidge.
Mrs. Bash is REAL solid! Damn! Top of the line brown eyes.aggiehawg said:
Bash sounds solid. Thanks for posting that.
swallows is even too stupid to be a democrat, a donkey eventually learns if you hit him in the head with a 2x4 often enough. And Grenell has been abusing him (figuratively, of course) like a rented mule.aggiehawg said:It's not like Fartwell is any smarter than Maxine Waters. He's an idiot.Adam Ag 98 said:

If you ever have some time to kill, search for the House testimony of Eric Prince when Fartwell was questioning him. Prince wipes the floor with him. It is an entertaining read.
Good questions...Stressboy said:
How is carrying on an investigation two years after enough exculpatory evidence proves the collusion allegations false not be considered prosecutorial misconduct if not itself obstruction of justice?
Are there absolutely no checks on wrongful prosecution, government harassment and what was obviously in hindsight a coverup of actual abuse of power at the very least?
All good points ... AND perhapsaggiehawg said:A couple of things to consider here.Quote:

First, unmasking in and of itself is not a crime. It is the leaking of the material that is a felony and a big one, 10 years. So Bash is looking into the sources of the leaks.
Second, Barr recommended to Trump to veto the FISA law amendment as a battle rages in Congress over parts of the FISA law being renewed. Documented evidence of how the FISA laws can and were outrageously abused would be very useful information for FISA reform. Badly needed FISA reform.
Third, this the third time Barr has gone outside the Beltway for help, meaning he still doesn't fully trust the denizens of Main Justice, nor the DC Field Office of the FBI.
Actually that's covered by the first point---leaking investigation. The higher the source of the leaks? The more Obama White House involvement.Quote:
Fourth, to gather additional evidence in support of a possible criminal conspiracy case by Durham.
And you would be correct. You've been on this thread for a long time. (Thank you for your contributions, BTW.) But you have seen me go completely ballistic and pulling my hair out over the abuses of the FBI, DOJ and Team <spit> Mueller for that same period. Sometimes I feel like Howard Beale from the movie Network.Quote:
Good questions...
IANAL, but when you can operate the levers of judicial power, and there is no one willing to question you, or you have established some traps that will incriminate people if they try to stop you, then what is to prevent an unscrupulous lawyer type, agent or director of the whole process to actuate, impose or execute a bent, twisted, warped and mutilated legal process to achieve the ends that they pursue?
That's where we are right now, at least my point of view...
Adds to the credibility he receives in his district.redline248 said:
What does Swalwell hope to accomplish by calling out Grennel?
It's clearly going to backfire on him.
Street cred with his DC cocktail circuit friends and his loony constituency. Also notice he took on Grenell as Grenell was walking out of the door. Let's see if Fartwell is equally combative with Ratcliffe.redline248 said:

Agreed, there's no way he's keeping his powder dry until after the election. He might as well shoot his wad, what are they going to do, impeach him again.
