Our favorite congressman, Devin “Anal Leakage” Nunes!

The NYC office of FBI nuts were the group I believe Comey was talking to when he announced that HRC had committed no crime but was a REALLY, REALLY, REALLY bad and reckless person. This group had WAY too much power and sway. This is what happens when those who repeatedly need discipline and over time get so much power/sway it becomes the tail wagging the dog thing. (see Koch brothers)

Oops. Thanks! I'll try and remember that next time the topic comes up. Now I have to go out and yell at the cloud over my lawn.

Great quote! Sessions was never a righteous man though. He was always evil. I think this applies more to the press enabling Trump, and the supine, versus actively conspiring, GOP members of Congress.

Was it Lynch discussing it, and Comey sitting there not caring?

No penis.

Also if chronazoan says is accurate they’re just pathetic bullies and people like that want someone to hate-on in a self-righteous manner. So over 20 years of smears against the Clintons would make them feel oh wow this is a good target.

All signs pointed in the direction of a rogue cohort of FBI agents in the New York field office -- Alex Jones types who probably aren't qualified to be working at the FBI, we are just saying! -- who were just GRRRRR REAL MAD their bosses in Washington weren't giving them much support for their investigation into the Clinton Foundation based on lies from the book Clinton CashAnd why the hell aren't we all clucking over their emails now?

Sweet Jane, I wish puzzles and kittens were the answer. I work with a lot of conservative Christians and it's a full time job just to keep my mouth shut and not go stark raving crazy on them.

Puzzles! I can barely believe it. I just did a 1000 piece puzzle.

"streamlining" what? "the final solution"?

Was the New York office in charge of analysing Weiner's laptop? Were they the originators of that BS "worked day and night for SIX DAYS to read all those emails" story that Comey used to justify giving Trump something like SIX DAYS to rant 24/7 to full media coverage about something that turned out to be nothing at all? Many people are saying ( yes, I borrowed that) that it shouldn't have taken an agency with the resources of the FBI more than a day to filter out and read a few additional new emails on a hard drive when they already had copies of the older emails. Did the Hillary hating agents in New York do this (to a clueless Comey), knowing that each additional day they gifted Trump with an opportunity to rile up the knuckle draggers at his Klan rallies would damage Mrs. Clinton's prospects, or was Comey in on the plan with Giuliani all along?

Uh, there were at least 3 million voters in the primary that preferred her over Bernie (whom I voted for). And three million in the general who preferred Mrs. Clinton to The Don.

So to all you moralistic types that sat it out -- the folks you profess to care for are getting screwed. Is that worth the warm glow of your probity?

Turns out, there was more than "a dimes worth of difference" between the two. At least 1 trillion in tax cuts for the 1 pct., for a start....

Who knew!

This likely relates to the fact that they are not the majority in Congress.

But we can fix that, ya know.

That's the worst joke I ever herd.
