    Telling that he thinks the problem is that it's too "tough," not that it's batshit crazy.

    That is a fair question, specially in light of his shit shows today. That was disturbing. It may get worse later since during his press conference. I felt sorry for the Finland president sitting next to him.

    The House and Senate Intelligence Committees will be briefed Wednesday by the State Department Inspector General on potential retaliation against State Department witnesses for cooperating with Congress, PBS and Reuters reported.
    The request Tuesday by the inspector general for a briefing suggested it was an incredibly important matter, given that both chambers of Congress are currently on recess.

    Giuliani is talking about a lawsuit against Schiff.

    What a transparently empty bluff. If I were Schiff, I would mock Trump and poke him and goad him and see if he loses his mind and does it. Why? 4 syllables.

    My thought exactly.

    I really want Trump to file one of the many lawsuits he has threatened.

    Why aren't more people simply pointing to this Wall Street Journal article on the reason for the firing of Mr. Shokin?

    WSJ article

    Mr. Shorkin was fired cause he was soft on corporations like the one Hunter Biden was a board member of. Why is a stupid pothead in the middle of the country more aware of this than GOP members in the House and Senate or media?

    First of all, stories coming out of Ukraine have very little credibility for me. But this is opposite of the story GOP want to tell. They say Biden got Shokin fired because he wasn't doing anything about corruption. The GOP narrative is that Biden got Shokin fired because he was investigating corruption (on the part of little Biden's company).

    Are you saying you don't believe the account from the UK and other Western diplomats complaints about Mr. Shokin because it deals with the Ukraine?

    edit to add: as for the GOP, I know for them it's just a game and I'm just frustrated

    I don't know enough about Ukraine (basically nothing) to make a judgment on who (in Ukraine) to believe. The story that other governments wanted this guy fired is credible (no other countries have denied it) - but it still goes against the narrative that this was something Biden did to stop an investigation of his son (who apparently was not under investigation anyway).

    Basically none of the GOP arguments make sense to me, but I'm just a stoner in the bottom of the country. :cool:
