Rep Adam Schiff on Andrea Mitchell

[Satch59]

Speaking the truth... Conway was just on bloviating about the left being sore losers and politicizing the Russian hacking... Mitchell pushed back a bit, saying that numerous agencies have confirmed this and why is Trump dissing them... Conway of course pivoting to say he's not dissing the CIA (oh yeah???) but saying the sources are unnamed and blaming WAPO, NY times and saying of course he respects the CIA...

Schiff comes on and takes apart every talking point from Conway, saying her points are non points because she's not really talking about the real issue. Schiff basically saying Trump doesn't understand how Intel works and is in over his head. Says this needs to be investigated fully.

1. He poked a thousand holes in her sack of lying shit

She is disgusting! Schiff is incredibly articulate and I hope we see much more of him

[Wellstone ruled]

2. The more this Interference Story

goes forward,the more it exposes the real players and motives. This is a Constitutional Crisis. Each time one of the so called spokes persons for Trump opens their collective mouths,more and more of the real story emerges. We just witnessed a Coup by Corporate America and the Mutli-National Corporations. Again it is our Oil like the Con Job said.

[Cosmocat]

4. Yes, it is a crisis

not sure if it is technically a "constitutional" crisis, but for the first time in our history our elections were actively manipulated by another country, and either way we elected a complete buffoon/meglomaniac.

However, the problem is that we are democracy, and the "we elected" him part is game, set, match.

And, further, the country really doesn't seem to care much about it.

[Wellstone ruled]

6. As soon as Congress recieves Conformation of a

Foreign Government has purposely caused a change for their gain,you have tripped the switch. Coup by any name is the same.

[Cosmocat]

16. Through most of our history

Yeah, Congress might have acted.

In the year 2016/17, with complete Republican control, there is zero chance the do anything about it.

[Wellstone ruled]

19. With the complete

capitulation of the Democratic Party Leadership in both Houses. They had the Facts and failed to act in a timely manner. I guess they figured,well I got mine,and it does not effect me,carry on.

[Cosmocat]

21. Oh yeah

The ds are the Washington generals to the Rs Harlem globetrotters.

[Wellstone ruled]

22. These types of issues are well known

to the Leadership. Thinks do not happen in a vacuum in Washington. The Leadership and their top Aides are updated daily on these matters,collegiality controls the leaking of certain info.

[bdamomma]

9. denial is a bitch huh

anyone who has a brain has to know how serious this is.

[Cosmocat]

17. Yeah

"Anyone with a brain wouldn't vote for any of the current asshat Republicans for Congress much less Trump for POTUS in the first place, but here we are.

[whathehell]

11. I think it's too early to draw a conclusion

on how the country feels about this..My bet is that they will soon be showing signs of caring a lot.

[Cosmocat]

20. Nothing we are hearing about now

Wasn't pdf obvious on November 8, let people voted to have majority r rule in contact with congress and to make this pos POTUS ...

[padfun]

14. We're not a democracy.

In a democracy, Hillary won.
In a Representative Republic, Trump won.

[SticksnStones]

3. "He's in over his head."

That's the part that just knocks the wind out of me.

He expects to be able to run this country like the CEO of a privately held company.

Checks and balances? Transparency? Realizing the potential global effect of every tweet?

Completely lost on him.

[Mr.Bill]

7. But as soon as the missiles are launched against us,

I'm sure Trump will be able to make a great deal for us. A deal so great you've never seen anything like it.

Believe me.

[Hortensis]

13. It wouldn't be missiles, almost certainly it'd be cyber war,

though of course nukes could be used that way. A report prepared for Congress a few years ago said that if the power grid for the entire nation were brought down, not just a city or region, mortality would be an estimated 90% after a year.

How many days' food and water does the typical household have stocked? If an attack came this afternoon, how long until supermarkets in our towns were basically emptied out? Two days? Three?

President Obama developed national emergency plans, including giving local governments the right to confiscate and control anything needed to keep their populations alive. How strong and well functioning are each of our own state and county governments after years of "trimming the waste," and in way too many electing clueless fools? Can they maintain order? Did they maintain the backup water pumps?

I personally would feel a lot more comfortable in a blue state instead of this deep red one.

[Mr.Bill]

5. Conway should be

on the Home Shopping Network selling potato peelers.

[bdamomma]

8. Keep on your Congress People

keep on calling our representatives and senators and don't let this go and keep on fighting back.

[Paladin]

10. Get them, Rep. Schiff. No mercy, no quarter. (nt)

[Lucinda]

12. KNR

[tenorly]

15. CONway and King Con himself both deserve to be in prison.

I hear Siberia's nice this time of year.

[spanone]

18. go mr. schiff
