Breaking: House KGOP just went nuclear: Urgently demanding Special Counsel #2

https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2018/03/06/politics/gowdy-goodlatte-special-counsel/index.html

See, this is how Trump will throw his political opponents in jail. His own party backs him. Appoint a second SC, bought and paid for by the Russians, to indict and throw in jail both Clintons, both Obamas, Comey, John Roberts and any other Democrat or non-fascist GOP he is afraid of or dislikes.

Remember what the nutters told us. He does what he says he will do. He said during the campaign that he would throw HRC in jail and now the fascist racist treasonous Russian-loving fat pig is going to do just that with the full support of the SS gang of treasonous thugs that run Congress these days!!

Remember he does what he said he would do and he said he’d put Hillary in jail.

This news just out is democracy shattering! If we don’t get the SC today, it WILL come if the IG report doesn’t totally enoxerate the FBI!

I initially thought the Dems and I were finally going to get what we have been screaming for...a separate, independent investigation like there was after 9/11. That would be transparent (findings open to the public), fully funded and staffed, relatively quick, and most important NON PARTISAN! The GOP couldn't derail it which is what they are doing right here with this news article.

Obama and Clinton did nothing wrong whatsoever. Nothing to investigate except the Russian treason Mueller is already investigating!

Basically caught the whole GOP colluding with Russia. The KGOP realized that is how they got caught and now they are desperately trying to destroy the process that will lead to their imprisonments and hopefully executions in some of the clear-cut treason cases.

Mueller can be fired at any time. Then what? The investigations in both chambers are partisan so they are useless. What about 15 Fem reps have already proposed in bills over the past year is a commission that is NON PARTISAN. Of course McConnell and Ryan don't want that. This type of investigation would make partisan interference impossible.

They all mouth their scripted lines, saying the dossier is unreliable, its fake news, it's a Dem hoax, etc., etc. If they actually believed that then there would be not reason to "investigate" a work of fiction, yeah?

So they must know that at least something in the Steele dossier is factual, and if it's revealed, Trump, and lots of Republicans are probably going to be indicted. What are they trying to hide?

In OUR reality, which stands up to measurable perceptions and long-standing laws and traditions, says that TrumpCo is 100% destroying our country and its democratic institutions.

In the right-wing “reality,” which demands several leaps over logic and cold facts, Hillary and Obama and Soros and “Deep State,” blah blah blah. This is an extraordinarily dangerous path to take, as it ends abruptly with full fascism, state-controlled media, etc. It MUST be rejected and turned back, or the United States is finished.

they'd whore themselves for the Russian money. they are scared that it will come down to Mueller finding them all tainted.

Waiting for the Friday Happy Hour Indictment drop.
