I suspect that many of the people defending the press conference performance did not watch it in its entirety—or at all. If they had, they would know that it didn’t achieve the desired effect of bringing America and Russia closer; in fact, it did just the opposite.

Worse yet, thanks to the press conference, we’re likely to see more ineffectual sanctions bills and resolutions of condemnation against Russia, which will serve primarily to stunt further efforts at diplomacy and dialogue.

We libertarians need to be smarter and more effective in our approach. Acting like partisans—pushing demagoguery and tribalism—is a self-defeating proposition. Stand strong on your principles; you’ll find most Americans standing with you.

Big statement that attempts to have it both ways. Ultimately you said the president behaved strangely but we should do nothing. When our president stood on a stage with Putin and agreed that Russia didn’t interfere with our election you can no longer have it both ways.

Ty for mentioning this. The intelligence agencies have been rogue for quite some time and don’t need Pom Pom cheerleaders from your colleagues. Trump is tearing them down for the wrong reason but they don’t need cheerleaders

You may want to remind your colleagues that there is a document that starts with the words We the People, which means that the FBI works for us, not the other way around.

Anything to embarrass the president and protect the swamp.

Right? The president is more than capable of embarrassing himself, thank you very much. As for the swamp, Pruitt says the water’s warm.

You know there are other Amendments right? Like the 1st, which the leader of your party assaults almost daily. You seem to think the Constitution is a buffet where you can pick and choose what Amendments matter.

Except for your fellow libertarian, Rand Paul, who sounded like he could give Trump's anti-IC stance a run for the money.

Rand Paul did exactly what Justin suggested...do you lack reading comprehension?

I think it is you who lack reading comprehension. Amash: "The widespread reaction on Capitol Hill, for example, has been to rally around the intelligence community." Me: "Except for Rand Paul."

Your're in a dilemma! I'm for the 4th Amendment. However, if you Senators blow it, we'll all lose. Our President and half the Country will find ourselves under a Socialistic regime. You Senators are playing with our lives!

Ah yes, ripping on the FBI without any specifics. Welcome to MAGA land. I noticed Paul and Meadows toeing the line recently. You must've got the memo.

My only pushback sir is that it is ongoing cyberattacks that is threatening our democracy, this is war and we need to pull together to support intelligence services know to defend the Republic. Comey and Mueller both refused to let Ashcroft sign off on worst behaviors ....
