Is something big about to drop?

The right seems to be going especially hard at this bogus ‘Hillary hacked the White House’ nonsense. They are trying to turn this nothing burger into something… It reeks of desperation and attempted distraction. It could just be to distract from the steady drip drip drip of damning shit coming out about Dear Leader but… For some reason it’s making me feel like something seriously big is about to hit.

Meh… We will see.

The only thing that’s gonna work is indictments and arrests

And it will happen. There is no doubt.

The Dems know it's coming. GOPers know it's coming. It's the eerie DOJ silence. It's the dearth of sound waves just before the big shoe drops.

There's a kind of poetry to it all. There was so much crime, so much planning for the crime. So much deception. So much evil.

It's all going to bubble to the surface. The GOP will have no escape route.

It rather feels like the moments before the dike gives way and the flood waters rush in. I agree the DOJ silence is very eerie and for many republicans probably unnerving.

Forgive the right wing link but they are the one pushing this nonsense. Looking at google news, YouTube and social media this morning it appears to me that they are really trying to turn this into something.

He's colluding with RW media to holler and shout, but he knows that there's nothing behind his "investigations." It's all outrage and... commercial breaks.

I heard this morning was that Putin just wants the Ukraine to say they won’t join NATO. They were not being invited any way. And the Russian Ambassador told Putin to keep negotiating.

And Democrats in Ohio have presented a Districting map!

But I assume it means the GOP have hacked something, and it's about to come out - maybe an indictment or something.

Any time they accuse somebody of something, they are projecting.

The filing was about a possible conflict of one of the attorneys. There was no reason to include this other than to whip up the "frothy right.". The statute of limitations ran last week for any "possible" criminal conduct it regurgitated.

Nonsense. They whip up the base whenever they have an opportunity.

Their entire existence is based on victimhood. I was pointing out how the information was dropped, and that if there really was a crime, they let the statute of limitations run without charging it.

Trying to provide cover for the bald faced hypocrisy on display by the GOP completely ignoring reports that Trump was ferrying top secret documents around the country in a u-haul and storing them in his walk in closet for the maids to dust off for the past year after they previously made "but her emails" the central plank of their election platform in 2016.
