but I think it's also to pull attention away from the Gorsuch hearing that isn't going all that well.

But then, I also suspect, in lieu of my speculation above, that it is evidence of collusion and that the rat trap may have just snapped shut with Nunes going to WH and blabbing in public about classified info.. which should ultimately hang him. And maybe he's made a deal w/Comey to "out" the cheato squad for a lighter sentence.

Maybe one or more of those things are why Lindsey Graham is so uncontrollably wiggly squiggly.

I feel obligated to bear witness at this time.

a friend's house the past few evenings to watch, but I have been listening live on NPR. Last night I saw him all wiggly and giddy about Gorsuch and he sounded the same today so I'd imagine he is.

I think he's giddy to get cheato out of office and sees Gorsuch as a "sign-on" to impeachment and thwarting subsequent legal attacks from cheato after the fact.

It's just a weird clusterfuck of a story that I think is getting away from both Trump and the Republicans.

They know the GOP will be branded as failures tomorrow. Nunes thought he would do the team a solid but the exact opposite is the result.
