You’re very welcome! I’m watching from in Canada, so I have a vested interest. #SuperLongBorder I know Trump hates CNN, I don’t think they were being sycophantic just trying to be super neutral seeming. A lot of these news outlets seem to think if you downplay his outrageousness that counts as evenhandedness. When of course it’s just aids him. *Please insert huge bunch of swearing here* Also, good luck Yankland. 😦

I checked to see if there was anything called "Obstruction for Dummies". Most of what I found had to with bowel problems. Which, weirdly, comes back around to Nunes being full of shit.

I am one of the smartest people I know, yet I have done some of the most head-up-my-ass dumb things imaginable. Which led me to Brown's Law: No matter how smart a human being is, at some point that person will do something spectacularly stupid. We can only await our turn, and strive not to be repetitious.

Hey, yall. I don't Twitter, but any of you who do, you might want to head over to Congressman Schiff's website and see what he's tweeting about. It looks to be hot news breaking about material misrepresentations by Nunes in the memo he sent to the WH. He appears to have made changes not approved by the Committee and unknown to them.

1.25" margins all around.

If it really is just grammatical errors, then I don't see what the big deal is. I mean, this is an administration that can't even proofread the State of the UnioM invite. What's Nunes afraid of? That we'll make fun of him?

In hindsight, its apparent that Devin recused himself from the Russia hearings to avoid work so that he could develop his fiction writing skills.

I actually had an experience with the police in Watkinsville. I was a long-haired kid of about 21 or 22, my friends were a goth chick in all black and an obviously gay man, all about the same age. They wanted to go to Athens to check out the school for possible graduate study and I tagged along because it was spring and I had nothing better to do. So, we were going to be gone for the week, we weren't going to be able to stay in a hotel every night because we were broke college kids, but I brought my tent; I figured we'd split between camps and motels during the week. Well, we get to a campground and the sign says "Camping season begins April 1." It's still late March, and we have to figure out what to do. We spy a nature preserve and decide that might be a good place to pitch the tent. About 2 in the morning a flashlight comes in, wakes us up. It's the local constable. I look at this crew--a hippie, a goth, and a...let's go with homosexual, at the mercy of a cop in the south and in my head I'm seeing the closing scene from Easy Rider. Turned out the guy was really nice! He probably dealt with college kids all the time being so close to UGA. We explained the situation, he said be out before the center opens at 8 and find somewhere else to stay tomorrow night. No problem, officer thanks very much. And PHEW.

If Nunes (prounounced; noons) has nuts, he's up to them in collusion causing cover up and obstruction with some saucy side charges also too.

May he stink up the stinkhole he is brutally tossed into.

His ignorance is hurting the less ignorant but equally guilty other members of the Vlad Pak. For fucks and their own sakes, the top tier colluder/obstructors should bum rush this fool towards the ditch, then tenderize him a bit.

It's not the first coup that's the nasty one, it's the ones that follow once the lower ranks see how easy it is.

Thank you! I didn't want to provide the wrong name. But I knew there was a Wonkette with the facts to improve my fading memory.

I remember a different version of Brown's Law. Something like if you walk around with your head up your ass your hair will turn Brown...or something. Republicans love being Law abiding.
