A) Do they think they fooled anyone with that costly theatrical stunt? (BESIDES Trump's willfully ignorant dimwit base) It was costly if you’re a taxpayer, and I am, unlike certain slimy pieces of shit who reside in the WH.
B) AND that’s all it was. They’re trying to appear like fierce and heroic freedom fighters, bravely going after the evil Dems who want to hold the pResident accountable for just a few of the multiple, mega heinous crimes he’s committed. Ya know, they’re attempting to avoid a dictatorship and maybe save some lives. Yeah, those Dems, what monsters!
Just FYI, repubs ARE on the impeachment committee and Schiff sent out info ALL about these hearings last week. Are these play-time freedom fighters in cheap suits, like their lord and master, who MUST be protected at all costs, illiterate too? Seems so.
These are the same motherfucking shitheels who, after Obama negotiated the nuke deal with Iran, sent a letter to Iran which basically said WE’RE the REAL power in this country so don’t sign that agreement – it’ll be worthless in a couple years (once we get rid of the black dude).
Once again it’s party before country for the on-the-take piles of diseased rat shit on the right.
Adam L. Silverman over at Balloon Juice framed all this pretty damn succinctly:
️️️"These morons, in an attempt to create a spectacle that will take over the news cycle about impeachment, so that the majority of the public that isn’t paying close attention at all times just throws its hands up in disgust, didn’t just force entry into the House of Representatives’ Secure Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF), they brought their unsecured cell phones with them.
Moreover, they then took imagery with those phones – pictures and/or videos – of classified spaces and, potentially, any classified information that had been taken out in advance of the deposition and was in public view for those members of the House, Republicans and Democrats alike, who actually had the need to know to access it today. And then they started texting and tweeting and emailing that out. On unsecured devices and unsecured and non-governmental networks!
This required, as was reported, the SCIF to be closed once they finished their pizza, Chick Fil-A, their stunt and finally gave up and left, so it could be swept and re-secured before the delayed deposition could finally take place. What Congressman Gaetz, Congressman Scalise who is the #2 Republican in the House/Republican House Caucus, and their 28 or so colleagues did wasn’t just a stupid stunt, it was a major security violation.
How major? Off the top of my head the number of Federal felonies committed by Gaetz and his colleagues is:
- Forced entry into a SCIF
- Criminal trespass in a SCIF
- Bringing unsecured electronic devices into a SCIF
- Taking imagery – pictures and video – of classified spaces and materials on unsecured devices
- Transmitting imagery – pictures and video – of classified spaces and materials on unsecured devices to unsecured devices through a variety of unsecured platforms (texting, tweeting, emailing, etc)"
Go. Read the rest. It’s worth it,
Will these corrupt, deceitful and badly dressed rat fuckers be charged or jailed for the felonies they’ve committed? Will Gaetz and his crew of idiots do time? That’s probably what they want most – being martyrs (sans actual REAL punishment) for the party. I’m sure visions of fawning Fox news “blondes,” declaiming their heroics are dancing through their tiny beans. That and $$$$$ KA-CHING!
Will there be a morning after for America.
