Jason Chaffetz on Jared Kushner Senate Interview: What About Chelsea Clinton?

[DonViejo]

by Aidan McLaughlin | 8:52 am, July 24th, 2017

Former Congressman Jason Chaffetz appeared on Fox & Friends Monday morning to discuss Jared Kushner’s interview with members of the Senate Intelligence Committee over a meeting he had with a Russian lawyer promising dirt on Hillary Clinton. And the congressman-turned-Fox talking head (who may or may not be auditioning for an anchor gig on Fox & Friends) had a pressing question: what about Chelsea Clinton?

“Republicans need to get a backbone,” Chaffetz started, defiantly. “Every time the Democrats say they need to call up Jared Kushner or Don Jr. — call up Chelsea Clinton, call up the Clintons.”

“There we have an inspector general who issues a report stating an actual crime. You have Bill Clinton, the former president, taking millions and millions of dollars from countries, that Hillary Clinton is going in and then doing business.”

“So every time a Democrat says ‘I gotta talk to Donald Trump Jr.,’ then go up and bring Chelsea Clinton in there,” the congressman continued, arguing that the former first daughter was “involved in the Benghazi situation” and the Clinton Foundation.

1. WTH did Chelsea have to do with Benghazi?

[unblock]

3. Child of political foe. You go after ivanka/kushner/eric/don jr., we go after chelsea.

[gademocrat7]

2. I despise that treason weasel.

[MineralMan]

4. Moron!

That is all.

[Chasstev365]

5. What about you, comrade?

Asshole has so many ties to Russia it's not funny!

[Proud Liberal Dem]

6. That's ludicrous

Chelsea isn't accused of ANYTHING.

[get the red out]

7. The ignorance is disgusting

As well as the ignorance they apparently know their viewers live in.

[PearliePoo2]

8. BLOTUS gets all his tweet material from watching TV. It explains his newest attack on the Clintons.

This obsessed idiot is up all night, yelling and screaming at the TV, and he's becoming more unhinged by the day.
He's consumed by losing the popular vote to Hillary and he's enraged with jealousy of Barack Obama.

As soon as the early 'Morning Shows' go live, their subject matter becomes a BLOTUS tweet within minutes.
His tweet storm yesterday started at 3:33 am!

It's obvious to me that fucking 'Fox and Friends' sets the agenda, they're in control and THEY are running the country!

We're in deep shit, folks.

[SharonClark]

9. If that doesn't work for him, he'll bring up Truman

Chaffetz is despicable.

[oasis]

10. I thought we had seen the last of that shithead weasel. nt

[Eyeball_Kid]

11. Hand-Slap Chaffetz is a Russian asset. He resigned for a reason.

[StevieM]

12. What kind of sick twist of fate put this evil bastard in the same family as a great guy

like Mike Dukakis?

[TeamPooka]

13. Republicans need to get a backbone, says the guy who just resigned his seat in Congress.

[panader0]

15. I guess that bit of irony went over his head.....sad.

[Greybnk48]

14. Fox cable "news" should lose it's lisence

for misrepresentation as a news channel, and for blatant propaganda.

[procon]

16. This is nothing more than a petty vendetta and it's more about revenge,

and the insatiable need that Republicans have to score points against their opposition, than any meaningful attempt to get at the truth.

[nolabear]

17. I see he went straight for the RWNJ market.

There's money to be made off the rubes. Congress is for suckers!

[Justice]

18. Fine. Do it. If that is what it takes to get to truth on Russia, fine.

[jalan48]

19. The strategy is to put the focus on the Clinton's and off of Trump. nt

[geek tragedy]

20. This assclown was in charge of overseeing the Tr*mp administration in the House.

What a pathetic, broken, completely meritless pile of dung the GOP is.

[gratuitous]

21. Jason Who?

Didn't he used to be someone before he tucked tail and ran? If he had evidence of "an actual crime," why didn't he do anything about it? I'll bet the Fox & Friends hosts just grilled him alive about that, right?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

22. Doesn't he have some daytime soap operas to watch now? nt
