I don't care if he did,he in my President,I am proud of him,the SOB on the left would not be satisfied with the front seat in hell so screw the SOB and the deep state along with the rhino bastards.
My hope is after the mid terns we have enough senators to take control and he then can fire mr mcgoo and rhay and rosenstine.

Just think President Hillary Clinton and imagine how everything good that is happening would never have occurred if she occupied the White House and was naming justices to the Supreme Court.

This is why I voted for Trump. Not because I liked him, although I've grown to really like and admire the man, but because I couldn't fathom the idea of a corrupt felon occupying the Oval Office.

Yep. Ever since Hillary handed him his ass in her 2015 hearing, I've known that he is all show and no action.

Got a clip of that by any chance? I don't recall anyone ever besting the man during questioning.

Yep, about 11 hours of it. For all of his barking, he never laid a glove on her. Or did I miss some punishment or consequence coming out of the Behghazi hearings?

What is your understanding of the purposes and powers of the Congressional committee in holding hearings?

I get it, you don't like Gowdy for whatever reason. But sayin that Hillary "handed him his ass" is a ridiculous comment.

Anyone find it odd that Brennan tweeted "Republican patriots, where are you?" I saw a couple of similar statements on CNN too.
Then suddenly several Republican lawmakers come out and publicly condemn Trump for his meeting with Putin? They literally played right into it.

It sure looks like the anti-Trumpers plan from the start was to peel off Repub support from Trump. Divide and conquer. Weaken Trump going into the Supreme nominee fight, maybe peel off some confirmation votes?

You are assuming that the only reason he clarified his wording was because of the fallout. Maybe he clarified it because it was really what he meant to say and because he values honesty. It isn't backtracking if he honestly meant to say wouldn't and not would. I know it is hard to imagine anyone in politics just being honest regardless of the consequences but if anyone is going to be then it is certainly President Trump.

A normal politician takes bad advice from his communications staff. President Trump is not a normal politician.

Among other things, they are SUPPOSED to expose the truth, but such is rarely the case. In recent history they appear to provide a platform for swamp creatures on both sides to pontificate endlessly, while barely squeezing a question into their allotted time. The ultimate goal of every Congressional swamp creature seems to be to say something so outlandish that you garner a soundbite on all the cable fake news channels.

I have trouble blaming Russia for breaking into the DNC Server and utilizing the password that Podesta so easily provided.

Should not the blame be placed on Hillary, the DNC, and Podesta?

Were not they responsible for information security?

The Democrats have been very effective in refocusing the publics attention.

Russia, Russia, Russia, I honestly struggle with believing any of it anymore.

After seeing how deep the Deep State is, I find it easier to believe Putin than our Intelligence Community. Not that I believe Putin, but I do wonder if he lies less than many in our Government agencies.

I take no offense to Russian spies as they are doing their job, as I would expect our spies to be doing likewise.

I take great offense to the actions of our FBI, DOJ, and Intelligence Agencies as it seems they were not doing their job. In fact they seemed (seem) to be betraying our country.

Russia is not our Allie, expecting them to behave as such is naive.

That is a novel and imaginative purpose alright, but no, the purpose is to assist and inform Congressmen in fashioning legislation. The oversight function is to help determine whether the government is performing correctly, funding, etc.

Truth can be hard to find, especially when ambiguous, disputed, and might not be easily recognized, or even appreciated in some quarters.

Punishment is beyond the powers of Congress, thankfully.

If you thought Gowdy would interrogate Clinton who would then be marched off to the Stony Lonesome, you were destined to be disappointed, but not because of any fault or failing of Gowdy or wickedness of Clinton. Her punishment or consequence could only come from an indictment backed by proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Consequence is a bit more flexible. I think the Benghazi questioning led to the e-mails debacle which, while not satisfactorily resolved so far, certainly cast an aura of doubt or uncertainty about her soundness. This was additive to other scandals, none of which took her out of the race but cumulatively raised enough flags to give Trump a chance.

Everyone needs to sit back, relax, and smile about today being the 616th day of the best Doritos flavor ever:

Strzok and his bias must have felt right at home in the FBI

^^^^^
Sure, whatever you say, Jim.

Isn't there a cell down in Gitmo for the likes of Comey and Brennan? Maybe a little recreational water boarding?

More proof of Comey's bias

Reminds me of Baghdad Bob.

Comey and Brennan better be careful what they wish for with their "republican patriots" rhetoric. Eventually real patriots will have had enough and when they "rise up" those two will find themselves dancing at the end of a rope.
