Salty — Weiss has said repeatedly that he will testify before congress.
But, duh obvi, he cannot testify during a pending case and an ongoing investigation.
How forking troll stupid are you dude?
Now that he is an sc, Weiss is required to deliver a report. Just like Durham and mueller. And he no doubt will testify after his report is delivered. Just like Durham and mueller.
So please just stfu, ok.
You are embarrassing and obviously drunk on the Maga Qanon kool aid.
Painfully, a lot of America is. Crazy times.
Interestingly, they
prefer crazy to reality.
They
want to believe flat out lies and self-affirming, mind-numbingly stupid conspiracies, and so they do. And no amount of facts and logic dissuade them.
I can forgive stupid, but it's those who
should know better, and perhaps really do know better deep down, who are most disturbing. They're in it for the jollies or other rewards of manipulating others.
Of course, this isn't reserved for those on the right, there are certainly those on the left who manipulate others for their gain as well. Rage and fear is profitable.
Sure. Defame the messenger & keep your head in the sand, ignoring emerging evidence, just like you did with the Steele dossier & the larger HRC/DNC/Fusion GPS Russian disinformation op. This is not simply about poor addict Hunter's mistakes. Hunter's emerging texts & emails are not fake Russian disinformation from a compromised laptop or the cloud. It's about funneling money, for years, to Pop Joe & the rest of the family without paying taxes on it or claiming it under the FARA. Show the House the money trail & the tax filings, if there's nothing to hide.
Salty, I'm 100% for accountability...if there's actual credible evidence.
And almost every piece of BS you've thrown up in defense of the suspicion of Trump campaign Russian collusion has been disproven, primarily in court.
Meanwhile, further confirmation that key members of the Trump Campaign actively colluded with Russian agents has occurred, lots within the Mueller Report and further after. There is NO DOUBT that Trump himself, as well as other members of his cohort, actively invited and welcomed Russian interference and there's likewise no doubt as to their lies about their activities, prior to, during, and after with Russians. AND there's no doubt that there was indeed an active interference campaign by the Russians, funded by the Russian government.
Now, if you want to say that there were actors who tried to get media and other attention paid to this relationship, clandestinely, I'll not argue that claim as it's immaterial to the reality.
As to the Hunter stuff, any and all information coming from the laptop is entirely compromised by chain of custody issues and the motivations of the dishonest people handling it. Which doesn't mean that there can't be hard evidence found elsewhere which could be convincing.
I've seen zero such hard evidence. And that's after 5 years of investigation, apparently.
And oh yeah, Joe Biden has produced for public scrutiny his tax filings all of his years in public life. Edit, apparently since 1998. Last 25 years.
Remember when you were defending Trump so vociferously when we were saying that it's a guilty politician who doesn't want the public to see how he earns his money, what his charitable deductions are, what his "business" deductions are, how he values or miss-values his property for tax purposes?
In one case we have a politician who I've never thought was a perfectly honest man (I recall the issue in his first Presidential campaign) and who has a son who committed crimes during his period as an addict out of control and in another we have a politician who has his entire life built around cons, scams and fraud. Cheating in personal, business, and political life. Attracting the worst of dishonest people to him, grifters, sycophants, and hangers-on. An honest statement by him is an accident, a mistake.
I simply don't see this as equivalent.
