God they're grabbing at straws. This sounds like "But Hillary's emails!" all over again.

1. Will they be televised? They are going to look like fools.

2. by "suppress" i presume they mean "didn't show up on 'trending' like we hoped it would"

8. They will need a very weird definition of suppressed

First, no private company is required to show everything even if it were news worthy, which this clearly wasn't. Note that Fox News never had a fair evaluation of John Kerry's silver star, bronze star with Valor and three purple hearts war resume. Obviously, this is different as the truth really was entirely on Kerry's side as it was the NAVY'S account. It is easier to make the case the Fox "suppressed" that as that twitter "suppressed" the Hunter Biden story. All twitter did was not allow linkage to a NY Post article. The gist of the accusations were STILL spread by hundreds of right wing accounts.

I KNOW I heard the Biden stories before the election and I would be surprised if even 10 percent of people here did not know. I assume that a very high percent of voters overall heard about Hunter's problems.

3. The propaganda campaign did not go according to the christofascists' plan dammit!

Somebody besides them has to be to blame.

4. Chairman Comer doesn't know the procedures of a hearing.

He forgot that witnesses get time for opening statements and was about to launch into the questions. Had to be reminded.

Oops.

5. I refuse to watch but keep hearing Sara Vaughn in my head "Send In the Clowns"

9. Or the Banana

Splits Theme Song by the Dickies!

6. If this gets into the "laptop"

The "chain of custody" rules regulate the admissibility and credibility of evidence during a trial to ensure evidence was not tampered with or somehow altered prior to trial.

That will be fun.

7. More like broken chain lol

Wasn't the supposed hard drive in Gaetz coat pocket for a bit? They truly are clowns, scary clowns.

10. I really hope

This nonsense backfires. It really already is. These insurrectionist mofos like Biggs and Boeberts faces make me sick. C SPAN 2. Just grotesque that frumpy is driving the clown car to this day. Garland seemed pleased last night.

11. Bob Woodward was an ass this morning on msnbc.

When everyone was talking about Joe’s home run, he kept saying that it wouldn’t last because the republican house would tear him down with Hunter investigations. And when he was ignored, he kept trying to bring it up, like a turd in a punch bowl.

12. This harkens back to some recent Breaking News I read about lately.
