These comments coming from the GOPers like McCarthy and Graham are shameful and dangerous.

[Samrob]

They are all trying to stop the NY AG from going further with the investigation of Trump. They are also trying to scare the jury members and their families. It's a type of obstruction of justice preemptively. I just hope Fani throws a wrench into all of this by indicting Trump by Wednesday.

Kevin and folks like MTG are holding the entire US justice system hostage with their lies and threats. I hope the Special Counsel has charges against all the Congress critters including Kevin and MTG who took part in attempts to obstruct justice and any crimes they are guilty of concerning J6.

1. The kompromat on these guys must be horrific

They’re sticking close to #Traitor

MTG is just fucking nuts

[Irish_Dem]

8. They are probably on the Putin payroll.

They are more afraid of Putin than Trump.

[KPN]

10. That's certainly likely from the standpoint of a logical

rationale for their extreme behavior relative to all the ethical and criminal inquiries into Trump since his election … and maybe before when I consider McConnell’s response to Obama admin on intelligence agency reports about Russian interference in the final stretch of the 2016 election.

They are all compromised directly or indirectly.

[Irish_Dem]

13. Yes. They are not taking all these risks for Trump.

No way Trump is worth it.
He is a liability. And they know it.

They are fighting for something else.
And typically GOP leaders fright for themselves and those paying them.

[Straw Man]

19. Yup.

They secretly hope Trump goes away forever. What they're doing is pandering to his followers, the MAGAT base, hoping to keep their votes.

[Irish_Dem]

20. Yes, and MTG hopes to be his VP.

So it is all political stunts and theater.

[Beachnutt]

2. They're shaking in their boots right now

as they know trump will sing like an opera singer on them all.

[Emile]

21. That's it!

[ColinC]

3. It is absolutely obstruction of justice

Something I imagine they can easily get in hot water with quickly if they piss off the right judge.

[hippywife]

4. While all of them would be good...

I'd be more than happy to see Gym Jordan, Bobert, Margerine Trailer Grease and McCarthy all in prison, along with a few others. But aside from the former Oaf of Office, those are my top choices. Especially #1 and #3 on that list.

[Samrob]

5. If they haven't attempted to obstruct justice before, they have now with these statements.

Jury tampering, witness tampering, attempted obstruction of justice, and possibly some kind of infraction of House ethics rules?

[Samrob]

6. Were McCarthy or MTG ever called to testify in any investigation? Graham was. nt

[Beartracks]

7. "Shameful" and "dangerous" are Republicans' stock in trade. n/t

[FakeNoose]

9. Why does Putin even care that Chump is finally being indicted?

I really don't think these directives are coming from Putin. It has to be the dark money people and the right-wing extremist groups, they have a lot more to lose when Chump finally goes down.

[Turbineguy]

11. Maybe they should go to Russia too.

[Evolve Dammit]

12. They are all working for the crime boss. All sold their souls to the Orange Chosen One. F 'em. nt

[Rebl2]

14. Better yet

Indict him Sunday.

[DallasNE]

15. Michael Cohen Served Time

For this same transaction and he was only following orders. Giving the orders should be worth double the prison time.

Plus, the judicial system is already stressed by the uneven justice.

[hurple]

16. What comments?

Context is nice to have...

[aka-chmeee]

17. It's amazing

The people screaming "Lock her Up!" over emails apparently cannot conceive of any circumstance which justifies even charging or trying a serial criminal.

[elias7]

18. It's not like haven't actively investigated their political opponents for years

Damn utter hypocrites
