preservation notices, document requests and the coming storm.
The link to the above quote: https://news.yahoo.com/kevin-mccarthy-vows-punish-democrats-154146029.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall
Whether democrats and their subservient media want to believe it or not, the House of Representatives will be in Republican hands next year. There will be a new round of investigations and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has already encouraged top Republicans to issue preservation notices and document requests. Thus far as many as 500 have been issued. The executive branch hasn't been cooperating, though they have been hiring lawyers. Those to be placed under congressional investigation are obvious to all but those on the far left.
The most import at the current time:
1) Hunter Biden.
Influence peddler, drug & sex addict and dilettante, Biden is supposedly under investigation for among other things: influence peddling, money laundering and tax evasion. There has been a tight lid on these investigations and the left wing media has shown little interest in reporting on them. The untrustworthy FBI can't seem to locate the Hunter Biden laptop that was in their custody. Recently Mark Zuckerberg said that the FBI warned him of a "Russian Disinformation" dump shortly before the Biden laptop story broke. Hunter Biden’s financial arrangement with CEFC China Energy show that the Chinese energy conglomerate paid $4.8 million to entities controlled by Hunter Biden and his uncle. The CCP is America's # 1 enemy.
2) Attorney General Merrick Garland
Garland has tried to intimidate American parents who confront radical school board members. It was Garland who directed the FBI to combat ‘threats of violence’ against administrators. Of course, the truth of the matter is that the administrators want to teach American children CRT and gender studies. It had a chilling effect on the free speech of parents and all but ended the resolve of parents to protect their children. Most recently, he infuriated many Americans with an audacious raid on the home of a former President. From top to bottom, Garland's DOJ is staffed with the most extreme elements of the radical left.
3) Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
There is already a resolution to impeach him on a charge of failing to secure the border. Under his direction, the border crisis hit a new record this past May which saw the largest number of illegal border crossers along our southern border since CBP began keeping track in 2000. Communities along the southern border have been overwhelmed. The border patrol has encountered more than 1.8 million illegals in 2022, and there are still two months left to go in the fiscal year. Fentanyl is also flowing across the southern border at an alarming rate. All of this by design.
4) NIAID Director Anthony Fauci
This is the man who virtually directed the pandemic response in it's early days. The man who recommended that the economy be shut down. The man who ignored naturally acquired immunity. The man who recommended school closures. The man who once argued that conducting experiments on contagious viruses to increase their potency was worth the risk, even if the work could accidentally lead to a pandemic. And there is some evidence that the Wuhan Lab was funded by the NIH. Gain-of-function experiments are the sort of work that was being conducted at the Wuhan Institute of Virology when the COVID-19 pandemic hit China sometime in late 2019. Dr Fauci has tried to redefine what "Gain of Function" means when confronted by Sen Paul. Fauci has also used politics to protect himself by bootlicking democrats and the media.
5) The FBI
The FBI that Barack Obama politicized & weaponized. We need an in-depth accounting of why Wray never cleaned up the Bureau.
In addition to the above, the Jan 6th Committee may be resumed under Republican leadership. It won't look anything like what we have been subjected to should McCarthy decide to continue with it.
Expect the democrats to use their usual projection when it comes time for them to become the hunted.

Let's just call it a start!
I'd rather be more accurate and call your seed delusional.
In what way?
In every way.
All of them in every way.
I never trolled your seeds
You dont pay any any attention to the truth. Why not have fun !
Ask Liz Cheney what being a Republican is worth. Then ask Joe Manchin what being a Democrat is worth.
Then don't complain about trolling.
An image that points out that the FBI is a conservative, not liberal, institution is not trolling, it is reality.
It is a flat out lie.
Performance and the facts tell us what the FBI is, not some leftist picture.
Didn't Comey set the standard for taking classified documents:
"From the group of 30,000 emails returned to the State Department, 110 emails in 52 email chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information at the time they were sent or received. Eight of those chains contained information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent; 36 chains contained Secret information at the time; and eight contained Confidential information, which is the lowest level of classification. Separate from those, about 2,000 additional emails were “up-classified” to make them Confidential; the information in those had not been classified at the time the emails were sent.
The FBI also discovered several thousand work-related emails that were not in the group of 30,000 that were returned by Secretary Clinton to State in 2014. We found those additional emails in a variety of ways. Some had been deleted over the years and we found traces of them on devices that supported or were connected to the private email domain. Others we found by reviewing the archived government email accounts of people who had been government employees at the same time as Secretary Clinton, including high-ranking officials at other agencies, people with whom a Secretary of State might naturally correspond.
This helped us recover work-related emails that were not among the 30,000 produced to State. Still others we recovered from the laborious review of the millions of email fragments dumped into the slack space of the server decommissioned in 2013.
With respect to the thousands of emails we found that were not among those produced to State, agencies have concluded that three of those were classified at the time they were sent or received, one at the Secret level and two at the Confidential level. There were no additional Top Secret emails found. Finally, none of those we found have since been “up-classified.”
I should add here that we found no evidence that any of the additional work-related emails were intentionally deleted in an effort to conceal them. Our assessment is that, like many email users, Secretary Clinton periodically deleted emails or emails were purged from the system when devices were changed. Because she was not using a government account — or even a commercial account like Gmail — there was no archiving at all of her emails, so it is not surprising that we discovered emails that were not on Secretary Clinton’s system in 2014, when she produced the 30,000 emails to the State Department.
It could also be that some of the additional work-related emails we recovered were among those deleted as “personal” by Secretary Clinton’s lawyers when they reviewed and sorted her emails for production in 2014.
The lawyers doing the sorting for Secretary Clinton in 2014 did not individually read the content of all of her emails, as we did for those available to us; instead, they relied on header information and used search terms to try to find all work-related emails among the reportedly more than 60,000 total emails remaining on Secretary Clinton’s personal system in 2014. It is highly likely their search terms missed some work-related emails, and that we later found them, for example, in the mailboxes of other officials or in the slack space of a server.
It is also likely that there are other work-related emails that they did not produce to State and that we did not find elsewhere, and that are now gone because they deleted all emails they did not return to State, and the lawyers cleaned their devices in such a way as to preclude complete forensic recovery.
We have conducted interviews and done technical examination to attempt to understand how that sorting was done by her attorneys. Although we do not have complete visibility because we are not able to fully reconstruct the electronic record of that sorting, we believe our investigation has been sufficient to give us reasonable confidence there was no intentional misconduct in connection with that sorting effort.
And, of course, in addition to our technical work, we interviewed many people, from those involved in setting up and maintaining the various iterations of Secretary Clinton’s personal server, to staff members with whom she corresponded on email, to those involved in the email production to State, and finally, Secretary Clinton herself.
Last, we have done extensive work to understand what indications there might be of compromise by hostile actors in connection with the personal email operation.
That’s what we have done. Now let me tell you what we found:
Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.
For example, seven email chains concern matters that were classified at the Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending emails about those matters and receiving emails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also found information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S. Intelligence Community at the time it was discussed on email (that is, excluding the later “up-classified” emails).
None of these emails should have been on any kind of unclassified system, but their presence is especially concerning because all of these emails were housed on unclassified personal servers not even supported by full-time security staff, like those found at Departments and Agencies of the U.S. Government — or even with a commercial service like Gmail.
Separately, it is important to say something about the marking of classified information. Only a very small number of the emails containing classified information bore markings indicating the presence of classified information. But even if information is not marked “classified” in an email, participants who know or should know that the subject matter is classified are still obligated to protect it.
While not the focus of our investigation, we also developed evidence that the security culture of the State Department in general, and with respect to use of unclassified email systems in particular, was generally lacking in the kind of care for classified information found elsewhere in the government.
With respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors, we did not find direct evidence that Secretary Clinton’s personal email domain, in its various configurations since 2009, was successfully hacked. But, given the nature of the system and of the actors potentially involved, we assess that we would be unlikely to see such direct evidence. We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the private commercial email accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in regular contact from her personal account. We also assess that Secretary Clinton’s use of a personal email domain was both known by a large number of people and readily apparent. She also used her personal email extensively while outside the United States, including sending and receiving work-related emails in the territory of sophisticated adversaries. Given that combination of factors, we assess it is possible that hostile actors gained access to Secretary Clinton’s personal email account.
So that’s what we found. Finally, with respect to our recommendation to the Department of Justice:
In our system, the prosecutors make the decisions about whether charges are appropriate based on evidence the FBI has helped collect. Although we don’t normally make public our recommendations to the prosecutors, we frequently make recommendations and engage in productive conversations with prosecutors about what resolution may be appropriate, given the evidence. In this case, given the importance of the matter, I think unusual transparency is in order.
Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. Prosecutors necessarily weigh a number of factors before bringing charges. There are obvious considerations, like the strength of the evidence, especially regarding intent. Responsible decisions also consider the context of a person’s actions, and how similar situations have been handled in the past.
In looking back at our investigations into mishandling or removal of classified information, we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts. All the cases prosecuted involved some combination of: clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information; or vast quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of intentional misconduct; or indications of disloyalty to the United States; or efforts to obstruct justice. We do not see those things here.
To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences. To the contrary, those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions. But that is not what we are deciding now.
As a result, although the Department of Justice makes final decisions on matters like this, we are expressing to Justice our view that no charges are appropriate in this case.
I know there will be intense public debate in the wake of this recommendation, as there was throughout this investigation. What I can assure the American people is that this investigation was done competently, honestly, and independently. No outside influence of any kind was brought to bear.
I know there were many opinions expressed by people who were not part of the investigation — including people in government — but none of that mattered to us. Opinions are irrelevant, and they were all uninformed by insight into our investigation, because we did the investigation the right way. Only facts matter, and the FBI found them here in an entirely apolitical and professional way. I couldn’t be prouder to be part of this organization."
That comment simply outlines how deluded some on the left actually are.

We'll have to put in on a board and call it "TDS for dummies."
I find it hilarious that you highlighted that in bold yet don't seem to understand what it MEANS.
I posit that there IS clear evidence that Donald J. Trump INTENDED to violate the laws governing the handling of classified information AND there is overwhelming evidence that Donald J. Trump was extremely careless in his handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.
PROVE IT
That would require you to READ the documents Vic. All of them are readily available online.
READ the NARA letters to Trump.
READ the warrant.
Oh and here's one for you to READ:
That document proves that all the bullshit from Kash Patel are lies.
When you're done, THEN maybe we can have a cogent discussion about their content.
I don't think so. This was an issue between the bureaucrats at the National Archives and the Trump people. The FBI should never have been involved in this. You want me to read something that is so overly redacted that it can't be read. We now know that privileged attorney/client documents were taken. You can bet that anything derogatory in there will be leaked just as Kash Patel's name was left unredacted. That is why you needed an independent examiner should have been apointed immediately.
Two notes:
1) The documentcloud you does not prove what you claimed and the warrant that I read is a clear violation of the 4th Amendment..NO GENERAL WARRANTS!!!
2) The line I boldened, which you found so "hilarious" was highlighted to point out that Comey disregared the law, which said that NEGLIGENCE was in itself a violation. Comey not only had to rewrite his statement to replace negligence with carelessness (as if there is a difference) only shows that Clinton violated the law and Comey let her get away with it. Not only that, but he set a new standard - one that required INTENT, which is very hard to prove.
18 U.S. Code § 793 - Gathering, transmitting or losing defense information
(f)
Whoever, being entrusted with or having lawful possession or control of any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, note, or information, relating to the national defense, (1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of his trust, or to be lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, or (2) having knowledge that the same has been illegally removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of its trust, or lost, or stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, and fails to make prompt report of such loss, theft, abstraction, or destruction to his superior officer—
Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both.
I don't care.
Bullshit Vic. The NARA has MANDATES set by the Congress. Again, you'd have to READ to know that.
The NARA doesn't have a criminal division Vic. When they uncover a crime, they call the DOJ. The DOJ assigned the FBI [it's in their name].
There is plenty to read in the warrant Vic. If it takes you a couple of days, I'll wait...
So what? If you READ the warrant, they were prepared for that.
See, if you had READ the documents, you would know that the DOJ is REQUIRED to include exculpatory information Vic. Kash Patel put his own ass on the line. He has been on RW media spewing bullshit for MONTHS. The DOJ included his statement as possible exculpatory evidence. Get educated.
Then WTF took Trump so long to file that request?
Note that NO request was filed for the 15 boxes that Trump released. Hilariously, his lawyer requested to review the contents of those boxes AFTER they were returned to the NARA. READING the documents just reiterates the incompetence of Trump and his minions.
The documents show that it took the FBI about 8 days to go through the 15 boxes Trump returned to the NARA. It's been 21 DAYS. The FBI has undoubtedly gone through everything they retrieved through the warrant.
In short, if your nightmare scenario were true, it could have and should have happened already.
I guess the FBI 'Villains, Thieves, and Scoundrels Union' is slipping.../s
Are you calling John a liar Vic?
trump's willful retention of classified documents. why didn't the dumb ass give it all back when he was first asked? why is it so hard for him to understand? he screwed up, deal with it.
A Judge found that there was probable cause for the search Vic.
Oh, and WTF is a 'GENERAL WARRANT'?
Well gee Vic, the definition of negligence and carelessness are different so there MUST be a difference. Negligence is a legal term, carelessness, not so much.
Compare that to 'conspiracy' and 'collusion'.
Now Vic, apply that statute to what Trump did.
Should the DOJ let him 'get away with it'?
Joe Manchin is a corrupt DINO.
Dr. Oz Claims That Eating Classified Documents Was Essential to Trump’s Healthy Diet
By Andy Borowitz
Oz, the longtime television host and, more recently, Pennsylvania’s G.O.P. nominee for the U.S. Senate, said that “classified documents, including the nuclear codes, provided the roughage necessary to keep President Trump’s digestive system humming along at the highest possible level.”
Speaking at a campaign stop in Pittsburgh, Oz said that Trump’s diet consisted of “the four food groups: the hamburger group, the ketchup group, the Coca-Cola group, and the classified-documents group.”
“Looking at President Trump, you might wonder what miracle diet made him such a fine physical specimen,” Oz said. “It turns out that national-security documents are not only loaded with secrets—they’re chock-full of fibre.”
As some of you used to tell a deeply religious human being, "we want to here from you" "give us your thoughts!"
To soon be replaced by a fully functioning Republican.
Feel better?
I note that you refrained from asking me to prove that.
Does that mean that you agree?
no such thing...
Only to Prozac pill popping, wack-a-doodle worker drone liberals.
Coo coo ka choo
Did you READ the documents I cited dennis?
If NOT, why would you presume they don't include proof?
If you did, how the fuck could you deny that they include a plethora of proof that Trump INTENDED to break the law?
Mark Meadows interpretation of Donald Trump's interpretation of documents???
If NOT, why would you presume they don't include proof?
I did and they fail the Comey standard of intent. If the prosecutors believed it they'd be prosecuting. You and Comey were better off with the law as it was written and then you could easily indict Trump for "gross negligence." The only problem with that is you'd have to indict Hillary for the same thing.
That could very well be true. The problem is that Comey changed the legal standard to save Hillary's rotten ass.
You mean the magistrate that once recused himself from a Trump case because he hates Trump? Did the DOJ go judge shopping yet again?
Oh, and WTF is a 'GENERAL WARRANT'?
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Well gee Vic, the definition of negligence and carelessness are different so there MUST be a difference. Negligence is a legal term, carelessness, not so much.
Well gee Dulay, that must be the reason that Comey changed it after he accidently called it negligence. Then he inserted carelessness for all the dear lefties that he serves. Even after that he raised the standard to the extremely high standard of intent. Isn't that now the standard?
Now Vic, apply that statute to what Trump did.
We would have to see what he did. It is hard to believe that an opposition candidate's partisan DOJ would not indict if that were true....especially with DC juries foaming at the mouth to get at the man they hate. What say you to that, Dulay?
No, Mark Meadows declaration, made under penalty of perjury, that despite Kash Patel's claim, Trump's tweet did NOT declassify documents.
Then I can only conclude that you have an issue with comprehending the documents.
The affidavit documents that the NARA first contacted Trump in May 2021 to inform him that they KNEW that he had failed to turn over Presidential papers.
ANY Presidential papers held by Trump after that date was INTENTIONAL.
Trump did not turn over any documents until Jan. 2022, a year after he left office. Trump's lawyer alleges that they don't even know WTF was in those 15 boxes. The NARA and FBI confirm that there were Presidential papers and classified documents in those boxes.
In June 2022, Trump's lawyers showed Jay Bratt an unsecured room with boxes of documents. Trump's lawyers were told to gather all the documents and properly secure the room. Trump's lawyers also signed a document that swore that there were no more Presidential or classified documents at Mar-a-Lago. There is overwhelming evidence that they lied.
Hense, NO thinking person can claim that Trump did not have the INTENT to retain documents in violation of the PRA.
Trump's incessant claim that he declassified any documents he brought to Mar-a-Lago also proves that he had the INTENT to remove classified documents and take them to his unsecured resort.
Oh, and BTFW, it's still unknown whether either of Trump's lawyers has the classified status to view the documents they were entrusted with. It is a known FACT that Trump does NOT and is NOT authorized to review the classified documents that he had or has.
Do you have a link to support that allegation Vic?
Non-responsive.
BTFW, the warrant qualifies. Why pretend it doesn't?
Perhaps it as simple as the fact that he couldn't PROVE 'negligence', just like Mueller couldn't prove 'conspiracy'.
The statute is predicated by intent Vic. Comey didn't 'raise' the standard, he followed it.
You need only base your position on what Trump has already admitted to doing Vic.
It's a crap load of argle-bargle.
During which time Trump was in charge of the DOJ.
Nope, the evidence is that Trump broke the law WITH intent.
Your comment illustrates that.
Of course I do:
How could you not know?
Non-responsive.
BTFW, the warrant qualifies. Why pretend it doesn't?
I highlighted the section that the warrant violates. BTW they also violated attorney / client privilege
Perhaps it as simple as the fact that he couldn't PROVE 'negligence', just like Mueller couldn't prove 'conspiracy'.
Negligence is not a hard thing to prove.
The statute is predicated by intent Vic.
I gave you the statute and highlighted the "gross negligence standard.. Why do you pretend clear language means something else?
You need only base your position on what Trump has already admitted to doing Vic.
I would need criminality and obviously Garland hasn't found any.
It's a crap load of argle-bargle.
The FBI can indict a ham sandwich. Where Oh where is the indictment?
He didn't have charge of a special prosecutor. Funny how that only happens when the dems are on the sidelines.
Nope, the evidence is that Trump broke the law WITH intent.
There is no evidence and I suspect that there never will an indictment....just salacious leaks. It sounds so oddly familiar!
The defenses of Trump about these things always comes down to a version of - he's a strange, ignorant person who has no clue what is going on, even when he is in the middle of it. Voting for him are ya?
All that tells me is that there are about 18 of you here who seem to be in favor of a KGB style government police force that either tries to prosecute or slander or intimidate it's political opponents.
Voting for him are ya?
I'm actually hoping that he is indicted (preferably via dishonest means.) However, if it comes down to him vs another term of this far left dictatorship, I'd not only vote for him but a lot of people who would really scare ya.
Joe Biden went on the offensive today attacking Republicans who say they are pro law enforcement but wont denounce the Jan 6 rioters. Enjoy the next 3 months of this.
He's come along way from the campaign when he told us that he would "unite" the country. Now he says pick sides.
Enjoy the next 3 months of this.
I'll be here all night on November 8th. See you then.
I would question who has divided the country more, President Biden, or the leader of the Republican Party who posts QAnon messages on his social media.
I'm putting my money on the tool that claims that a Recession isn't really a Recession, the border is secure, the pandemic was one of the unvaccinated and wants to tell us how terrible the American people are.
He's is quite selective when it comes to denouncing violence, isn't he?
Of course your link doesn't support your claim and in fact states:
Of course, that supposes one can apply logic.
That's bullshit Vic. Stop gaslighting your readers.
No again. Just stop.
Actually, it is Vic. It's that whole intent thingy that you hate so much.
First of all Vic, you hang your hat on Comey changing the wording from negligence to carelessness.
Are you NOW claiming that Comey actually started out claiming GROSS NEGLIGENCE'?
If that is your claim, PROVE that shit Vic.
Secondly, you cited ONLY section F of the statute. Here is a summary of the preceding sections:
18 U.S. Code § 793. Gathering, transmitting or losing defense information
(a) Whoever, for the purpose of obtaining information respecting the national defense with
intent or reason to believe that the information is to be used to the injury of the United States,
or to the advantage of any foreign nation...
(b) Whoever, for the purpose aforesaid, and with like intent or reason to believe...
(c) Whoever, for the purpose aforesaid... willfully communicates...
(d) Whoever, lawfully having possession of, access to, control over, or being entrusted with any
document... willfully communicates...
(e) Whoever having unauthorized possession of, access to, or control over any document... willfully
communicates,
THAT is what I mean by PREDICATED Vic.
That's the most delusional shit you have said in this discussion so far Vic. You're all about 18 U.S. Code § 793. Gathering, transmitting or losing defense information. Here's the full text of section (e):
Still unable to understand big bold facts? It says right there in the piece you pulled out that he previously recused himself in a case involving Trump, yet took on this one. Why do you not get it?
First of all Vic, you hang your hat on Comey changing the wording from negligence to carelessness.
Are you NOW claiming that Comey actually started out claiming GROSS NEGLIGENCE'?
Another easy one:
I can't believe you lived through all of this. Are you putting us on? Or do you just want to see if I can still find it? Links everyday for you...all of it common knowledge!
Secondly, you cited ONLY section F of the statute.
Well gee Dulay, section F is the one that lists "Gross Negligence." No other section contradicts it. Read it upside down if you like.
They gave Trump dead to rights.
Thus far Biden's hack says otherwise.
Let us know when you have an indictment
Oh, I get it Vic. You believe that you can take one fact and extrapolate an unsupported conclusion to support your agenda.
Grassley?
Again, the statute is predicated by INTENT. Nothing in section F or anything YOU have said refutes that.
Who?
'Us' who Vic.
Oh but he WAS Vic. Since you insist that Biden is 'in charge' and responsible for the actions of the DOJ now, you can't credibly claim that Trump wasn't 'in charge' and responsible for the DOJ's actions during his term.
Trump is responsible for the actions of Mueller and Durham while he was in office.
There is a plethora of evidence, much of which Trump has provided by flapping his gums on his media forum and to his chosen talking heads. Oh, and let's not forget about the 'leaks' from John Solomon and Trump's lawyers. Can't wait for Alina Habba to be deposed.
Oh, and I'm still waiting for your proof that Garland leaked Vic.
Let's just call it a start!
... the start of another insurrection attempt.
it's hilarious watching the trumpsters bluster and threaten at the idea of their demigod doing a perp walk. looks like not getting re-elected has consequences too. let's list the potential crimes that trumpsters think that former republican presidents shouldn't be held accountable for....
But there won't be an indictment, will there?
Highly doubtful...
And those were scorched-earth investigations by real haters. Yet as you say, they came up empty. Many in the FBI faced no accountability.
Who and accountability for what? Be specific.
"Typically when a person avoids answering a question, that question was posed by another person in a debate or discussion. In such cases, the person is not only evincing flawed reasoning but also violating basic principles of discussion."

I'm going to ask NBC to bring back the Quiz Shows so you can ask all the questions.
I'm going to continue to post YOUR characterization of those who don't answer questions to call out the hypocrisy.
Enjoy.
If the Senate remains under Democrat control the House will have nothing better to do than out Democrats and their minions for everything they have been doing. It will never go beyond that in the Senate. Don't expect impeachments; cooperation; or even the slightest bit of caring.
Stagnation is better than the Democrat shit bills being passed now.
Expect the divide in this country to grow even wider over the next two years with Democrats screaming about Republican investigations; and Republicans screaming about Democrats turning the IRS, DOJ, and FBI into arms of the Democrat Party. 2024 won't see the end of it either. No matter who wins the White House the lines will have already been drawn. Impeachment will be the opposition's party only word.
Anything is better. This is authoritarian rule.

Graham predicts "riots in the streets" if Trump prosecuted over classified docs
https:// trib.al/ije73Jm
Violence? Like on January 6th? A terroristic threat!
Graham is being harshly criticized for what he said.
I think he means the kind of hellish violence we saw in blue cities during 2020.
So, are the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and White Nationalists only going to burn down FBI Field Offices in our blue states?
You should have seen Twitter this morning. All those little shaking space shots who are still living at home with Mommy, were outraged. Their fingers racing to hit the keys!
this is what happens to anti-law enforcement trumpsters...
tsk, tsk, tsk, too bad...
my opportunities to defend america from trump's domestic terrorists seems to be getting better every day.
Don't ruin their dreams. We both know they don't have anything more than that.
I can wait until it's legal, and that probably won't be too much longer.
And liberals like Camel Toe said they should not stop and they won't stop.
For the sake of the thimble full of credibility you have left, I hope this is a bigger "storm" than the one you predicted the Durham investigation would produce. I have the feeling the FBI, Fauci, Biden , etc are not shaking in their boots over threats from the clownish Kevin McCarthy.

Wrong again! Americans are suffering but that is different from the article, which is about who will be investigated by the House next year.
Try not to conflate the two.
Wait WHAT?
You start with:
Then you state:
I conflated nothing. I replied to your comments Vic. Just stop.
Peter Stroz and Andy McCabe have television gigs.
The FBI and CIA could not help but notice when Trump and Co sought out, met with and established long term relationships with dozens of clandestine agents of Russian State Intelligence Services in the leadup to the 2016 Presidential election. Beginning by at least 2014 and continuing right up to election day in 2016 Trump was in constant secret negotiations with Vladimir Putin to build a Trump Tower in Moscow, even going so far as to offer Putin a luxury penthouse as a bribe. Every professional Intelligence agency in the world including MI6, the GRU and Interpol were aware Trump was colluding with Russia.
It ain't going to work. The dems are in for a good beating in November!
Oh it's picture taunting time!
I see Ron Johnson and Marco Rubio are in trouble now.
Going Down like Hershel Walker, Dr Oz and J D Vance...
Okla nominated Mark Wayne Mullin for the U.S. Senate.
What is up with the gop nominating unelectable scum?
Is that like the Ace of Diamonds?
LMAO! Where do you get it?
I don't know about those other races, but Marco Rubio is virtually unbeatable in Florida.
Would you like to make a wager?
Yes! Those are the ones who think you won't take the time.
A bet that the gop does not win back control of the Senate?
Do you not know how poorly Dr Oz is doing in Pennsylvania?
My offer is clear: I have Rubio to win. You have him to lose.
The loser suspends himself from here for a month.
What do you say?
I thought they were still tough in the Bronx.
Like the lil fairy once said "Times are a changin'."
I think you may be on to something there.
I can almost visualize a bar in the Bronx with a few guys thinking of what they can do to amuse themselves without a car.
No, bet would be on the gop actually gaining control of the Senate. Equivocation noted...
That is not what it was about. Bull Shit noted...
BTW you can tell your neighbor that I intend to fill your articles will bull shit cartoons like you do.
Gas prices have dropped 70 days in a row!
Who do you think you convinced?
So exactly how will Democrats gaining Senate seats be a beating for Democrats? If the gop does not win back control of the Senate then you will self ban? Isn't that the bet you made?
So you are down to hoping they hold the Senate. That's possible this year. The Republicans have to defend way too many seats, but there is the Biden performance factor that still may deliver even the Senate to the GOP.
Back to Rubio....You want no part of that bet in hindsight?
I tell ya, it's not the same anymore!
Worker drones will do that ......
Gas prices still nearly double what they were when Joe took office, after dropping 70 days in a row ...... amazing!
Oh shit up! Gas Buddy is only advertised prices and does not always get it exactly right. I just filled up for $3.54 at Sunoco in The Bronx. It was $5.59 on June firstmm.

Rubio is up 5 points in Florida polls.
Just depends on what pictures of gas station signs they post.

Actually..they've appeared to bottom out
So is that why it appears Biden interfered with an FBI investigation and Fauci childishly lashed out on national TV when questioned about his participation in the Gain of Function research? The FBI, they've proven themselves to be the pathetic version of the Keystone Cops. Fumbling all over themselves to cover their asses.
We're still waiting on those indictments of the entire Obama administration!!!!!!!!!
So you say. Why didn't Clinesmith get real jail time for lying on a FISA application? The very thing you people on the left said was impossible.
Remember?
Unvaxxed Coast Guard cadets given 24 hours to vacate campus, can’t go to class, change job
no room in the service for those that can't take an order. too bad.
"Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is getting credit for a mea culpa for saying what seems obvious: “For 75 years, the CDC and public health have been preparing for COVID-19, and in our big moment, our performance did not reliably meet expectations,”
This is a classic act of contrition theater, in which Walensky avoids taking any responsibility for the agency’s failure to understand the threat the nation faced or the CDC’s unfounded “guidance” regarding how to slow the spread of COVID, measures that the agency now acknowledges are flawed."
And the American government that has been going gangbuster bashing and demonizing China and trying its damnedest to provoke it into starting WW3 is China's # 1 enemy, notwithstanding the huge amount of trade between the two countries.
Good morning, Vic, and good night to me.
You have a good night sir.
Thanks, I did. It finally got cool, and it's finally raining.
In the morning maybe we can talk about setting up a vote on NASA's next mission.
I thought you wanted to talk about the future of NT. Sure, we can talk about NASA's next mission, but using PNs. The font for Chat is too small for my waning vision. By a vote, do you mean a poll?
We can discuss both.
I'd like to set up a poll to see how many think NASA going back to another manned moon voyage is worth it?
Appropriate venues:
Americana for the Poll?
Metafield for the future of NT?
Okay, but PN discussion first.
The Beige Suit of The Apocalypse!
What nonsense. We voted for Joe, not Hunter
You did vote for Joe....and it involves Joe.
Why all the coverup by the media and the FBI?
Had nothing to do with President Joe Biden.
There was no cover up by the media and the FBI
Hunter paid some of Joe's expenses:
"Text messages reportedly retrieved from Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop indicate that Joe Biden personally benefitted financially from his son’s business dealings, including while the elder Biden was serving as vice president.
“I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years,” Hunter Biden wrote to his daughter Naomi in January 2019, the New York Post reported over the weekend."
There was no cover up by the media and the FBI
"It’s now clear that the Hunter Biden story was real, with Hunter himself acknowledging a federal probe into his taxes — one that reportedly began in 2018. Really, it was always clear. Yet when the New York Post broke the details , virtually the entire journalistic establishment and left-wing punditsphere defamed the newspaper, claiming it was passing on Russian “disinformation” or partisan fabrications."
"T he FBI slow-walked its investigation into Hunter Biden’s laptop, including telling some bureau employees not to look at the hard drive belonging to President Joe Biden’s son, according to reported whistleblower disclosures made public by a top Senate Republican."
"Twitter exploded after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg claimed in a Thursday podcast appearance the FBI warned Facebook about "Russian propaganda" before the Hunter Biden laptop story dropped in 2020."
I don't know where you've been?
Yet, Joe Biden's tax returns have been made public going back to at least 1992, or for thirty years. So, if you had any proof that Joe Biden ever personally gained financially from Hunter's business dealings and he did not report it, then you have proof Biden committed crimes.
But, you don't. You have baseless accusations!
But again, Hunter admitted he gave money to his father
and BTW
Why else would China give all that money to Hunter. It isn't Hunter who can make US policy.
Perhaps for the same reason they fast tracked Ivanka's trademarks.
No Dulay, business investments and influence peddling are much different. You know it too.
Is it your ridiculous posit that the Chinese merely 'invested' in Ivanka?
Oh that's right, Ivanka wasn't making business investments, it was China/ s.
You have to be putting us on. Nobody gets everything backwards!
Hey Vic, where is your clarion call for exposure of the identity of this plethora of alleged whistleblowers? I mean it seems that half of the GOP has cited whistleblowers yet not a peep out of you and yours for 'transparency'.

'Weingarten is now trying to rewrite history to absolve the union of responsibility for what it did to children and families during the pandemic.'
What that bastard has done to American kids!
She cares nothing about the kids welfare but only about consolidating her power.
She is a true piece of shit.
Many caught the odor.
Where to start....
Baseless assertion. What he really meant to say was that Big Tech put out algorithms to help tamp down bald faced lies... The one above is just too general. No specifics. No details. Just "The FBI" (the new boogey man of Trump and his enabling liars) and "Big Tech" aka, any company that has banned "The Donald" and Co. for their untruths, distortions (see above statement) and just plain made up shitstorms in their coffee mugs. If you are practicing you NewSpeak, that statement right there has all the elements.
The rest of the article.. Ah "Hunter Biden", a man who holds no political office but does happen to be the son of the president.
As I am sure that Trump and company will point out, if there is no law against it, pay no mind. Unethical? Immoral? Do it anyway, we will strangle it in the court system and deny we did anything wrong. Doesn't Trump's daughter, who was actually in the government, do business with China?
Prove that the Federal Government is directly involved (that is what "by design" means) in both the number of people trying to gain access to the country AND the flow of fentanyl into the country.
No. Garland has sought to protect school board members who are confronted by radical, misinformed and/or persistently stupid parents. The overwhelming majority of parents, btw, are content with the education that their children are receiving.
For persuasive vigor, you paper gets an A. For intellectual rigor, an F. Try coming out of the rabbit hole instead of going more deeply in.
Toodles!
But the truth was tamped down.
Ah "Hunter Biden", a man who holds no political office but does happen to be the son of the president.
He's more than that. He made dad rich.
if there is no law against it,
Oh but there is...Article III, section 3 of the US Constitution.
Prove that the Federal Government is directly involved
And of course any rational human being can see the border is wide open.
Toodles!
The outhouse is that way.
Joe and Jill Biden's taxes for the last fifteen years are available to scrutinize. If Joe "Got Rich" off of anything related to Hunter's business there is no evidence of it. You are make unfounded wild irresponsible accusations with zero evidence to support them. Do you have any evidence Biden committed tax fraud? No! If you do show it now!
Or daddy's involvement in it all.
Who is scrutinizing anything that has anything to do with Joe Biden?
If Joe "Got Rich"
As recently as November 2009, Joe Biden's net worth was less than $30,000, according to CBS , but life post-vice presidency has been quite lucrative for President Obama's former number two. When Biden released his financial disclosures in July of 2019, they showed that he and his wife Jill had earned more than $15 million in 2017 and 2018.
HUNTER Biden said he had to give half his salary to Joe and paid thousands for repairs at his father's home, according to leaked emails.
Do you have any evidence Biden committed tax fraud? No! If you do show it now!
Just like you showed us that Trump was a traitor?
Sam Harris and a few others were able to admit it:
"Sam Harris, a prominent atheist and liberal podcaster, defended Twitter's censorship of the New York Post's Hunter Biden laptop report just weeks before the 2020 presidential election. He admitted the censorship "absolutely" was a "conspiracy" to prevent Donald Trump from winning re-election, but argued it was justified during an interview on the Triggernometry podcast Wednesday."
"The Big Guy."
Nobody wants to know.
The FBI even lost the laptop
That’s because they’ve been on the government dole the last 50 years. Not much to see there.
Never created anything, only sucked off the government teat ..... until of course his unclaimed side deals Hunter made for him. I wonder how many mansions shotgun Joe will buy when he’s done. One each next door to Obama, plus maybe one more ...... just because.
All on a government salary ....... impressive ......
And then there was Bill Maher:
Real Time" host Bill Maher blasted the widespread suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story during the 2020 presidential election.
During Friday night's panel discussion, Maher highlighted the controversial comments made by liberal podcaster Sam Harris, who openly approved of the "conspiracy" to bury the brewing scandal that implicated then-candidate Joe Biden in order to defeat President Trump on Election Day.
"Is it okay to have a conspiracy to get rid of Trump?" Maher began. "They were talking about Hunter Biden's laptop, which was a story and now all the mainstream press has finally admitted it was a real story. It was a real laptop."
He was a hack all his life and in 2 years became a millionaire. As we can all see, he had a beautiful mind /s.
Not his whole life, he kicked corn-pops ass ......
Then he got on a plane and went to jail defending Nelson Mandela.
It's so true. There is nothing quite like that little space where they get to spew nasty jokes. For some reason it allows them to finally go to sleep.
Yep, ass-clowns like Colbert and such.
That was after he & Hillary called them "Super Predators." I guess Jim Clyburn forgot all that when he instructed all those black South Carolinians to march down to the polls and vote for Joe Biden.
It is odd that the laptop is lost but we are to believe they are objective and non-partisan when it comes to other particular "investigations"
care to remind everyone who appointed the last FBI director? oh yeah...
Was that before or after he was appointed to the Naval Academy?
Hi, Vic!
Ooohhhhhkaaaaaayyyyy.... just wtf do you mean? Your non sequitur is too broad. This was your response to my
Are you intimating that (choose one: Joe,Donald) has managed to give sufficient cause to warrant a Treason charge?
Assuming you are being straight, this would mean that somehow Biden has done something akin to
I think that you're straining credulity. Hell, no! You've gone and broke it!
Your link to vote was insufficient to prove that
You made the claim
You have not shown, by posting a link from the early days of the administration, that the Biden administration is responsible for both the number of immigrants AND the flow of fentanyl into the country.. You are the person who claimed it was "by design". So it is up to you to demonstrate just how this is occurring.
The truth was not tamped down, just a lot of bogus, Sucker like Carlson, BS .
Why, thank you so much. I somehow feel the urge....
Good point.
How cute. You think that matters.
That I am!
Only thing I don’t like about this is the people’s work won’t get done. Still.
We are all getting ripped off. It’s just that some are too stupid to see it.
Well isn't this special...............
