IOKIYA Repuglinazi, only.

I remember when they screamed and cried about Obama's 'tyranny'.

but somehow any democrat, even if a democratic president, is a criminal and a tyrant for even opening their mouth.

They call for his resignation for lying and leaking - not even 3 months into the job - and all he's been doing is his job truthfully.

But they don't say a thing about Nunes leaking or lying.

These GOPers behave like juveniles. It's disgraceful.

But the end of their time is coming.

They behave like people who only recognize their party as legitimate.
It is why they refer to the Democratic Party as Democrat party - they will not even use the correct title of the party. They are all authoritarians who support one party rule.
The Constitution and rule of law do not apply to them.

They can't touch Schiff - they have no fucking power.

Want to bet they try to restrict it's removal by an incoming Democratic President? The next real President should also use executive power to declare illegal all these protest-breaker goon squads of mercenaries the energy companies have hired. And why stop there? Nothing to stop a Democratic President from declaring all Republican-passed voter disenfranchisement laws illegal.
