Will the media remember that there were no Democrats invited or participating in the meeting? Or will they once again fail the American people and feign puzzlement along with the White House as to who the leaker could possibly be???

Claims of a “deep state” out to frame tRump, etc. etc.

With no Dems at the meeting, and given that the material is confidential there will be no one to contradict that narrative.

How can the ranking minority member be excluded from a House Committee meeting?

Schiff should show up with Nunes and Gowdy and demand entry. On-camera. Make Security stop him.

He said there should be a Dem rep for every GOP rep. At least he tried...what else can they do? It is so frustrating for all of us.

He's nothing but a piece of amphibian shit.

You know that broken clock on the wall that is right only twice a day (once if digital with an AM/PM designator)?

I fucking hate that clock. I never forget how fucked up it is 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds of the day. It gets no credit for accidentally being correct once.

The only thing to do with that clock is to throw it in the shit can and replace it.

in today's climate...if it has an "R" after the name the only thing that needs to be done is to kick the ever loving shit out of them.

None of these Retrumplican shits deserve credit for pointing out the obvious shit show this White House is.

Retrumplicans wouldn't even give President Obama credit for nailing the bastard that killed 5,000 Americans on 9/11. We surely don't need to give them credit for "gently" chastising the orange shitgibbon.

Remember, the Russians were let into the Oval Office without Secret Service supervision. The White House is now buggier than one of Fred Trump's tenements.
