1. Gees. They were all in it together.

This just gets worse and worse.

[CrispyQ]

3. Oh man!

Can you imagine if the entire upper echelon of repub leadership were taken down? ~swoon

If you're going to dream, dream bigly!

[LiberalLovinLug]

18. I suspected this all along

That the whole GOP top leadership is involved.

[calimary]

24. Wouldn't surprise me. And that Zippy the Pinhead was part of it doesn't surprise me either.

I suspect he's the one who was trying to plant stories with Michael S. Schmidt of the New York Times - about Hillary facing a CRIMINAL investigation (which DIDN'T exist). And of course Schmidt, thinking he had a fabulous inside "source" ran with it, and it made the front page, and he was invited onto all kinds of news shows to talk it up. Only to have it all fall apart within the next couple of days.

And little ol' Michael S. Schmidt didn't show his face - OR his byline - for awhile.

I've seen him resurface, with two other reporters, in front page stories that haven't been as friendly to Gowdy's pals. Maybe he learned his lesson? MAYBE. He was hungry to make the front page. Visions of Pulitzers probably danced in his head, along with his own show on some cable network or something, and the fame and fortune and book deals and bragging rights and pecking order and all that.

FAIL. He trusted Gowdy, and it smacked him in the ass.

26. And how silly are we to know the Russians and GOP conspire, current and in the case of Russia

for decades, spending billions getting agents in place all over the country in the media, sitting politicians, talk show hosts, election precinct captains, and we sit here and think the Russians did all that for all those years and then left it up to the American voter?




Dont be silly.

27. france

How much are the Russians working with LePen to do the same thing in France?

[Alice11111]

29. I've heard tbey are...how much? Germany too

Hope the voters learned something from our fiasco.

[2naSalit]

5. I have been saying that

they are ALL dirty as dirt in this. The entire line of succession for the abrupt departure of the president will probably be obliterated.

I hope the current SCOTUS will find reason to nullify the election.

[Alice11111]

30. They can't do it without a case in contrversy before them, supported by legal, not factual, argunent

I'm not saying it can't be done, but it's a huge deal. It woild need an AG or the ACLU do have a chance.

[2naSalit]

35. Perhaps...

there is someone waiting for an appropriate time to approach the SCOTUS and go public. Today was such a whirlwind, I can hardly wait to see what happens tomorrow.

Never a dull moment with this sh*tshow.

[Alice11111]

36. You can't just go the the sup crt, you must start w a

Lower court and move up. There has the be a real case.
Established procedure law.

[Tatiana]

23. They had to be in it together, otherwise it could not have worked.

I can't wait for Republican leadership to be taken out. These people are traitors.

[Cha]

2. GO DEMS!

[Demsrule86]

4. The GOP stole the election.

We will have to be very vigilant...they will try it again in the coming years.

[Tanuki]

8. Filling a stolen seat on the Supreme Court with a right wing ringer will make it easier.

The only acceptable replacement for Scalia's seat is Merrick Garland.

[uponit7771]

15. +1

[Alice11111]

31. Yeah, even when we win, we will lose at the sup crt if another RW is appointed.

[Moostache]

16. What do you mean "try"?

They DID it before....in Florida recount 2000....in Ohio voting machines 2004...in PA and OH and MI and WI in 2016.

Go back even further....in '80 with the Iranian Hostage crisis and making sure they were not released until AFTER Carter left office (that was a huge campaign issue too)...in '72? Watergate still rings a few bells...

Damn near EVERY election won by republicans since I was born in 1971 - '72, '80, '84, '88, '00, '04 and '16 - has had something odd or unlawful or both attached to it in some manner...

'72 - Watergate
'80 - Hostages (plus holding or hindering their release out of spite)
'84 - well, this one was the exception to the rule, we got slapped around pretty badly here...anyone got an election scandal here?
'88 - Iran-Contra
'00 - Florida
'04 - Ohio
'16 - Comey's October Surprise / Intentional sabotage + Russian collusion

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

19. I keep pointing that out in discussions...

... Prescott Bush Sr pushed Nixon upon Ike for his running mate. The rest is... history. It has gradually made a significant portion of the voting age populace numb to hijinx and dirty campaigning. And they have gotten worse with each election cycle. Look where we find ourselves now.

[Demsrule86]

22. You have a point but now they have Russian help and will destroy our candidates and

steal our votes...usually they can steal only close elections...not sure this is still true.

[KPN]

25. THIS

[Alice11111]

32. Good review!

[NewRedDawn]

33. 1968 too

Nixon thru Kissinger telling North Vietnam to not deal with Johnson. That he would end the war with better terms for NV. 5 yrs more of death on both sides & loss of treasury from Tricky dick. And the rubes voted for him twice.

[gademocrat7]

6. Good news!

Gowdy is such a slime ball.

[Scarsdale]

20. Banjoes

getting louder. Bet he is really glistening now!!

[rockfordfile]

7. Yes he did

[randome]

9. Trey, your next course of action is obvious: start hearings to learn who leaked about your payoffs.

10. Howdy Doody Gowdy

A proud son of the southlands boy, A heir to the confederacy.

[Alice11111]

34. A stomach turning vile liar, who would as soon kill people,

Than deign to understand the facts. Agressively obtuse.

Not that it should matter, but God, is he ugly and evil looking. I would run if I saw him on the street. Skinny snashed in, longgg head, beady eyes. Like from a horror movie. So, his looks fit his heart.

[retrowire]

11. Nice. Nt

[spanone]

12. K&R...

[gopiscrap]

13. Nail that slimy fucker

[coco22]

14. Sounds good to me..

Lock himup! Lock him up!

[lisvard2]

17. Why are the Dems even taking part?

In these hearings!?!? Will they vote to confirm him?

[Friend or Foe]

21. Boy, you'd think that Gowdy, with those microwave radio ears

would have heard this coming

[LeftInTX]
