Adam Schiff tweets out the many ways that the Majority members of the Committee have obstructed the Russia investigation and are now rushing to close it down altogether.

Jessica Anderson reports on the particulars in the Baltimore Sun.

Given how fast, furious, and reckless are the smears leveled by Braying Battleaxe Pirro, this might well turn into a class action. In fact, given her attacks on American democracy, perhaps the state’s AGs should join the suit on behalf of the millions of citizens whose rights are being abrogated by Totalitarian Shill Pirro.

We’ve been down this disastrous route so many times before.

Will it ever end–or not before we blow up the entire planet?

There she was, Mme. tin pot Ambassadress, claiming this, that and the other thing against Iran.  It was show and tell that critics compared to Colin Powell’s fateful, ruinous game of charades at the UN in 2003.

The Trump administration degrades our national security on a daily basis, and all Haley can do is try to divert our attention with more exhortations to perpetual war.

The con reminds me of that scene with Maggie Smith as music hall star mustering up the mesmerized, baffled recruits in Oh, What a Lovely War!, except that Smith has great talent while Haley is a wannabee.

We know that Haley’s boss has been itching for a war with Iran, and betcha it’s got nothing at all to do with his frantic hunt for any distraction from Mueller…

Agit Pai puts on Santa drag for a preposterous piece of anti-democracy video agit-prop.

Not only is he a corporate cut-out, Pai is a buffoon who mocks the population he is abusing.

One more shameful day in Trump’s America.

Ted Lieu read out in yesterday’s hearing the substantial financial contributions made to the GOP by FBI officials, thus driving home the fact that

1. The FBI is GOP-dominated.
2. There is no direct corollary between political donations and bias.

Yesterday’s House Judiciary Committee’s show trial will be broadcast alongside Joe McCarthy’s.  Two of the lowest points in our history, two the most nakedly authoritarian, directly indebted to the playbook of dictators everywhere.

As Rep. Schiff tweeted after yesterday’s debacle,

“Today’s hearing, in which the President’s allies sought to put Mueller, the FBI and DOJ on trial, again demonstrates that the greatest threat to our democracy is from within. Russia cannot tear down our institutions — only we can do that.”

is, like everyone serving the interests of White House, Inc., a travesty of a public servant.

Pai is actively guilty of obstruction of justice in his refusal to cooperate with NY Attorney General Schneiderman as he attempts to investigate the tsunami of fake email comments submitted to the FCC.

Pai is also an avid promoter of the most tyrannical, anti-democracy corporate monopolization of our media and our Internet commons. He is a shameless liar, aggressively selling a bill of bogus goods via hackneyed, meaningless, deceptive hooey promoting his sell-out of the Internret.

A Trumpster through and through.

The GOP  House Judiciary Committee members will seemingly leave no threshold of bad acting uncrossed as they employ the histrionics of coordinated show trial in their “oversight” hearing against Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein. Sound and fury signifiying only the GOP’s relinquishing of all ethics when it comes to sandbagging Mueller’s investigation.

Why does Fox “News,” which is actively working to overthrow democracy in the United States, get to use our airwaves for free?

Oh, now it’s  big bad Mitch McConnell’s fault that Hannity’s preferred pedophile lost in Alabama.

Love how the GOP gang is so big on taking personal responsibility.
