"We went from 'I can't vote for that lady because she once used a private email server' to ..."

Except they didn't use the word "lady."

We went from “I can’t vote for that lady because she once used a private email server” to “literally everyone in this administration has illegally deleted their official texts” in four short years

…this is just RichWhiteGuysCanDoAnything, version 1,456,789 (and counting).

Different crime. Same outcome.

HRC’s “crime” wasn’t the emails…it was thinking she could enjoy the rights and privileges afforded to a few select guys.

Imagine..the gall.

Every stinking one. Nothing was deleted or held back except for a few private, family-related matters. And it wasn't just a couple of days' emails either. She turned over 4 years' worth of stuff.

Who among Chump's employees or partners-in-crime can say the same?

deleters: Drag them all in for fifteen hearings apiece to explain their deleted text messages and emails.

Remember the attacks on Hillary's emails. This asshole used private emails to conduct government business and has refused to turn these emails over to the US Government. This is an actual violation of the record keeping law that is also a criminal offense.

I do not want to hear any crap about Hillary's emails from any TFG idiot supporter



https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2022/08/03/navarro-emails-lawsuit/


Peter Navarro, the oft-combative former Trump adviser already facing a fall trial on charges of contempt of Congress, was sued by the government Wednesday over his refusal to turn over private emails he allegedly used to conduct White House business during the Trump administration.

Navarro, according to the court papers filed by the Justice Department on behalf of the National Archives, “has refused to return any Presidential records that he retained absent a grant of immunity for the act of returning such documents.”

The lawsuit charges the economic adviser “is wrongfully retaining Presidential records that are the property of the United States, and which constitute part of the permanent historical record of the prior administration.”

A lawyer for Navarro did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

He’s WAY too slick and cocky, and he’s basically little more than a high-level hanger-on.

From the first time I saw him blabbering his bullshit on TV, I knew he was sleazy. Sleazy people tend to gravitate toward the donald, it seems. Like attracts like.

It's like Michael Moore once said: "They are like sharks. They never sleep." And H was right, it has been a "VAST right wing conspiracy." And yes, "deplorables" was being polite. Take the gloves off Dems. All those subpoenaed by the 1/6 Commission are hard-core GOP or they wouldn't have been in the Orange Chosen One's admin.
The MSM and "both sider-isms" have contributed mightily after being branded the "liberal media". They adjusted to the lie. We can't "adjust" anymore. We need to keep HAMMERING the truth, wherever and whenever and to whoever we can.

"which she set up as her predecessor SOS Colin Powell advised her to do (just like he did)." They never knew what to say. Probably voted for TFG anyway.

I was so proud of my child, who told me after the election, "I voted for Hillary and my dick didn't fall off."
