      The OTHER shitshow thing abt this exchange--which is priceless--is part of the FlynnSpiracy Theory is that FBI Agents' judgement that Mike Flynn didn't lie was abt body language.https://twitter.com/LittelSea/status/1017544109156917248 …

      Does Andy Biggs know that Trump tweets even more--and in more incriminating fashion--than Peter Strzok does?

      Is Grothman actually treating Trump's promise to #DrainTheSwamp as good faith here?

      Incidentally one of these frothy Republicans clarified there were no informants used against Trump before the investigation opened.

      9 hours in Handel worries about someone being blackmailed. But she's worried about Strzok not Trump.

          Goodlatte: This hearing isn't stupid. It's a much bigger matter. A larger global and existential issue of equality under the law. Denigrates core of our system of justice. Most Americans don't consider fair and unbiased investigations as stupid.

          The hubris lies with her. She destroyed the reputation of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation by diverting $ to her favorite conservatives and away from places like Johns Hopkins. I'm a breast cancer survivor and I'll never forgive her.

          And she's got the brass to accuse Strzok of denialism. I'm not sure she's ever been introduced to reality, but it's easy to see they're not on speaking terms.

          This is such a terrible way for them to attack this. And it's not just because of Trump's own affairs, but because we know that large sums of money were going to cover them up. Even "playing to the base" doesn't explain why anyone thought this was a good idea.
