Joni Ernst: People investigating Trump are just like cop who killed George Floyd

[progressoid]

'We're trying to ferret those people out.'

Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) compared the police officer who killed George Floyd to the Justice Department officials investigating Donald Trump, during an interview with a local radio station earlier this month.

"The example of George Floyd, you know, that was a bad actor, a bad policeman. We do have bad actors at the FBI and Justice Department as well," Ernst told KXEL, an Iowa talk radio station, on July 3 referring to investigations into Trump prior to the 2016 election.

"And so we're trying to ferret those people out," she continued. "We want to know how far this goes. Is it from just some bad actors in a basement somewhere at DOJ and FBI, or does that rise all the way to the top to President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden?"

4. Keep clinging to the Titanic, Joni

I'm sure eventually it will stop sinking, just like it did in real life.

[IADEMO2004]

20. She did say "Deep Dive into the Situation" in the audio link.

[Champp]

5. Bwaaa ha ha ha. Looonacy.

Stop chomping on the hog nuts, Joni. They have addled curdled your tragically short supply of brain cells.

[LakeArenal]

6. She does resemble a ferret.

[rurallib]

7. Thanks for this little nugget

Shows Joni's sympathy lies with a dictatorship of the Trump

[madaboutharry]

8. Joni Ernst is a blithering idiot.

She is dumb. Plain. Ol'. Fashioned. Dumb.

How do these vapid people get so far in politics? It perplexes me.

12. Money

And I'll scratch your back if you'll scratch mine,and lies.

[Hassler]

9. Phony Joni is full of baloney.. Do right in November, Iowa

[Me.]

10. Hello Lincoln Project?

[Wellstone ruled]

11. Senator Bread Wrappers

just admitted she is a Racist thru and thru. Kind of fits in the Red Oak area.

[progressoid]

13. Hey now...

I don't live too far from Red Oak so...oh...never mind. Yeah, it is kind of racist.

[Wellstone ruled]

14. Sorry,

got some rellies in that area and quit communicating a couple decades ago. Can only tolerate their crap just so long,can not choose your Rellies. BTW,they are members of the hard core wing nut Lutherans in that area.

[progressoid]

15. Not as bad as NW Iowa though.

That's were I have some family (and business contacts).

I only interact with a handful of people in that area. It's fucking scary up there.

[Wellstone ruled]

16. Oh how I agree,

have not had to interact with any Business in that area since 02'. It was bad then and that cult like garbage extends along the Western Minnesota border to just south of Marshall.

[47of74]

18. Every time she or Kimmy pipe up I have to force the bile back down in to my stomach AND...

...fight the urge to move out of Iowa. Iowa might lose that battle since I'm looking at jobs in Minnesota now since I've had some bad job related news.

[progressoid]

19. Hope things work out for you.

We have been trying to get our house ready for sale for the last 1-2 years with the hope of getting out of here too. Of course with the Trump economy, selling now might not be a good idea. We might have to wait a year of so longer until the economy improves.

[IADEMO2004]

21. I had a scheduled Dr's visit after a Joni town hall meeting and my BP so high I couldn't leave

until it went down. I never have high blood pressure and haven't since. This was a few months after my wife died of cancer. We had Obamacare and thank heaven we did. Ernst is such a sack of bullshit. She is the perfect GOP senator no inquisitiveness, no interest in facts, truth, Iowa, or Iowans. Dollars from Donors is her only game.

She went to high school in Stanton. Welcome sign used to have the phrase "Little White City" (the house paint).

I shit you not.

[progressoid]

23. It's infuriating.

All the wonderful leadership from our senators, governor, and the white house is not helping my blood pressure one bit. I've been taking BP meds for most of the last 4 years.

So sorry about your wife.

[IADEMO2004]

22. Going after those liberal deep state GOP members of The Senate Intelligence Committee too.

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/21/senate-intel-report-confirms-russia-aimed-to-help-trump-in-2016-198171


Tuesday's bipartisan report, from a panel chaired by North Carolina Republican Richard Burr, undercuts Trump's years of efforts to portray allegations of Kremlin assistance to his campaign as a "hoax," driven by Democrats and a “deep state” embedded within the government bureaucracy.

.......................

“The fact that you have a committee with members that range from John Cornyn and Tom Cotton to Dianne Feinstein and Ron Wyden coming to a unanimous conclusion that that report was correct and was soundly based, I think is very significant in light of the continuing questions about what did the Russians do and how did they do it,” Sen. Angus King (I-Maine), a member of the intelligence panel, said in an interview.

“This puts it to rest,” he added.

Ernst's Senate office is some kind of information black hole that prevents her knowing anything about everything.
