Dems mock Trump Jr with giant Time cover on the House floor and read his emails into the Congressional Record

Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) and Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) on Friday read the full contents of Donald Trump Jr.s email chain on the House Floor, accompanied by a print of TIME magazines most recent cover, a photo of Trumps eldest son superimposed with the words, Red Handed.
Don. Jr.s emails are a smoking gun, Gallego told his colleagues at the House of Representatives. They prove that the Trump campaign was not only aware of the Russian governments efforts to meddle in our elections, they were enthusiastic about accepting Russian support.
Gallegos said the emails paint a disturbing picture of a campaign and now an administration willing to break the law and sell out to an adversary of the United States in order to advance their own petty interests.
Reading out Trump Jr.s statement which accompanied the email, Gallegos noted that despite the presidents sons assurance that he was publishing the emails in the interest of transparency, he wasnt even in this email. Recent reports indicate as many as eight people were present at the June 2016 meeting, though Trump Jr. originally indicated it was only himself, former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, Trumps son-in-law Jared Kushner and a Russian lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya.

That is how Ds can "legally" get rid of the foreign agents "colluding" with the Republican Party.

(58,374 posts)Reprinting the cover of Time? It is a good jab, but we are being way too kind.
How about a depiction of Trump in a Russian hotel room? Or Trump rolling in money he's making off the presidency? Or Trump pushing granny out of the nursing home and onto the street with Trumpcare?
