The Major Takeaway from Yates' Testimony is....

[ProudLib72]

Repukes could give a shit about Russian collusion. Their main objective is impugning Democrats and those who uphold the Constitution.

1. My takeaway...

Trump, Pence, Flynn, Jared, Bannon, and most of the other WH staff members are active Russian operatives or compromised tools and fools and Republican senators don't care and are, in fact, assisting in a cover up.

2. I do believe you

Are correct!

[ProudLib72]

3. Yes, and it's surprising

how many are involved. There must have been a memo about it to every GOP congressman. Now if that would just get leaked...

[0rganism]

8. i wonder how hard it would be for a leaky staffer to get access to that memo

that would make for a few interesting news cycles

[FuzzyRabbit]

6. You are absolutely correct!

Anyone paying even a little attention can come only to this conclusion.

12. I do believe you are exactly right. . . n/t

4. It is stunning that the "patriotic party" does not mind Russia takeover of our government.

When not wearing an American flag pin is almost grounds for impeachment of President Obama and Trump selling his soul and the nation to Russia is seemingly ok, something is wrong.

When being more worried about how the media came to know about a Russian agent among the new administration that worrying about the agent himself and the COVER UP of his existence is the focus of the GOP questioning, something is VERY wrong.

5. And Sally Yates spoke the truth to them ...

...they had no response.

7. They know that their e-mails have been hacked too and they dare not

say anything or do anything that would risk retaliation by Cozy Bear et al. They know how bad it could get and are effectively being blackmailed into submission.

9. We already knew that. :(

10. I guess we need to rethink that video of Feinstein and Grassley

You know the one....after a closed door session with James Comey, they both came out looking grim and shaken.

We now know that DF was likely upset to the core about the influence of a hostile foreign country on American politics and politicians.

Meanwhile, Grassley was obviously concerned that the meeting with Comey even happened, exposing Republicans as the traitors to their country that they personify. That's why he looked so pale and wan...that, and Hillary's emails were no longer the hot button topic they'd pretended it was for months.

Republicans politicize everything...including national security, apparently.

[Horse with no Name]

11. Or grassley was afraid people were going to find find out

They have no allegiance to this country. Only to themselves.
