GOP leaders say the vote was needed to counter White House stonewalling of requests for information. But even some Republicans say there’s no evidence so far of presidential wrongdoing.

Corruption? I wouldn’t be very much surprised, simply because rich people in positions of power are like that.

The part about the informant reminded me of another informant that swore up and down that Saddam Hussein had huge stockpiles of “weapons of mass destruction” -remember that? There weren’t any.

By a trick of memory, I am also reminded of the previous Gulf war, and the harrowing testimony before Congress of a 15 year old girl about witnessing Iraqi soldiers emptying and taking incubators from a Kuwaiti hospital and leaving Kuwaiti babies to die on the cold hard floor. This also turned out to be a completely fictional story, told by (it was later revealed) the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador, that had been coached by a public relations firm called Hill & Knowlton, that was at the time contracted by the Kuwaiti government.

So I guess you can’t always trust informants or evidence produced by republican activity.

    The evidence has been validated.

    You have a cite that it’s false? It’s dkim signed.

    You’re the first person I’ve heard claim it’s false.

      It’s quite the bubble you live in if this is the first time you’ve heard it.

      As I said there is a clear pattern of behaviour and there is zero reason to expect differently this time.

      Oh and a neat factor may be that Im a cyber security expert, and I can tell you that laptop is worse than worthless.

      For 7 years Republicans have been screeching about Hunter and… nothing.

      Meanwhile Trumps maga insurrectionists are all going to jail.

          I love how it was so obvious to anyone with more than two braincells to rub together.

          The informant being charged for lying is just perfect.

          Then the informant being paid by a Trump owned proxy…. Ahh it’s just too easy.

        Once again did you have a cite? Or are you going to keep lying? The laptop has confirmed to be true.

        And no you’re not a cybersecurity expert. lol. Jesus.

              Winter, can you at least bother with an argument?

              Pizza, please stop replying when you’ve reported a comment.

              Starting to feel like I should make that a rule.

                Pizza, please stop replying when you’ve reported a comment.

                When you fail to act on a report, I’m left with the conclusion that you believe a given comment to be civil enough. At that point you have no argument. Either act on reports or quit complaining that things turn into slap fights. Fuck around enough and have fun getting the community banned.

                Look at his bad faith comment and you’ll see why I responded the way I did. It’s pizza trolling again.
