Why would they care if there's nothing bad? Was somebody having an affair or something?


"Thus, Salesforce was still planning to turn over the records, according to a new filing in court on Tuesday where the RNC adds the tech company to the lawsuit."

They have to be hiding something or why else keep frustrating an investigation that is about an attack on them and the law enforcement officers that got injured/killed on that day.

"Russia, if you're listening..."

Just kidding, what kind of fascist would openly solicit Russian help in stealing emails?
this is quite the popular thread with the cult.

Didn't Pelosi claim "sovereign immunity" when she refused to turn over videos and emails in her possession, requested by the defense?

If CNN had spent 1/100 of the time on going after Hillary's emails, they could have gotten them before she deleted them.

Why is it that CNN pretends to be an investigative news organization, which they haven't been for 20 years now, only when alleged GOP-related info is involved?

Let them be in peace and allow the judge to decide. This BS House so-called investigation is nothing more than a huge fishing expedition - for over 14 months now with ≤0 results to show for $millions spent. It is getting really boring with nothing to report.

I guess since CNN and Pelosi have already declared Trump guilty, they have to now at least try to cover up and find some proof, which does not exist.

This is an investigative committe, not a criminal trial. There is no 'defense'. There are witnesses. The committee asks the questions and has subpoena power, the witnesses do not.

I remember a time, not that long ago, when an attack on America was almost universally considered a bad thing. An intolerable thing. An unacceptable thing that called for holding accountable those who perpetrated the attack.

You watched Donald Trump send a violent crowd down the street to have his political opponents murdered.

You watched the Republicans delay the impeachment trial to ensure that Trump would be out of office by then and thus "unimpeachable".

You watched the Republicans sabotage a bi-partisan commission by insisting that witnesses be on the commission. So the Dems have to do it themselves, which means useful idiots can simply dismiss it as a partisan witch hunt.

Now you're watching, yet again, Republicans stalling, delaying, and resisting the efforts to find out who was responsible for an attack on America. But the Dems are the real bad guys? Give me a freaking break.

The American system of democracy was deliberately attacked by a man who aspires to rule in the same manner as Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Il, and all you can say is "But look over there at what the Dems did!" Deplorable and pathetic to the nth degree.

JFC, many Americans have a higher favorability rating for VLADIMIR PUTIN than for Joe Biden. Think about that. Vladimir Putin. A career criminal with a well-documented history of murder and embezzlement. They trust Russian state TV more than they trust CNN or MSNBC. I guess nothing says, "Own the Libs" quite like default-hating domestic political opponents more than totalitarian dictators who throw journalists in jail and wage unprovoked wars of aggression. This is the condition of their moral compass, and they are not ashamed to show it in public. Absolutely appalling.

The Republicans are now at a point where they feel they can try and just ignore the law.
If they're subpoenaed they'll just ignore it and claim any attempt to do so is a witchhunt and if they have to turn over documents they'll claim they have immunity even when they obviously don't.
It doesn't help that many Republican voters will back them no matter how obvious the case against them and claim anyone who wants to see actual justice done is biased.

Republican lawmakers honestly feel the law no longer applies to them. Trump is the perfect example of this attitude.

Of course they're hiding something. Anyone who hasn't figured that out is too stupid to be anything other than a Trump supporter.

When insurrection is your primary political goal, the party's efforts to advance it, you can probably find evidence of it in virtually every nook and cranny of its institutions.

Why then is Pelosi holding back the video and emails that should help prove the charges?
