Seems to me if one loses their star witness it either shows incompetence on the part of the Republicans especially when they go on tv and admit they lost their witness or the star witness was a fake and was pulling the Republican’s leg. In either case what we have now is a keystone cop majority in the House. My thoughts as well especially when you have others saying they may never have hard evidence or that the claims may or may not be true. MTG is saying it isn’t true and that they haven’t lost anyone but time will tell where this goes. After all these years hearing about Hunter I would think it’s just them yelling to get the attention of their followers. I wish that they would get in trouble for slander at this point.

So not only did the Keystone Cops aka House Republicans lose one whistleblower but it seems they lost several whistleblowers.

I just looked on MTG Twitter page and she says their whistleblower is safe but in fear for their life so if he/she goes “missing” I guess they want to be able to say who knocked them off.
I don’t believe anything she says but it sounds like they are setting things up for when they don’t find anything they can prove. If course she is at the treasury looking through thousands of pages 🤦♀️

So now we have the Republicans losing whistleblowers and admitting accusing or suggesting wrongdoing by individual is all you need to be convinced of their guilt. In other words who needs any stinkin facts.

Apparently she’s pretty stupid. Well she didn’t graduate from high school but now wondering how she passed the GRE. The slide must have confused her since it shows the latest day on top not the bottom? I know people that were concerned to be going to Texas for vacation because it was so hyped about the thousands of migrants that were going to be pouring over the border. I’m hoping the numbers continue to go down.

I like this guy McGovern. He pointed out the Mueller Investigation generated several indictments while this Durham Investigation came up with very little. I think three. Two were found not guilty and one I believe ended up with the guy on probation.

I didn’t think I could get any more disgusted with Guiloni but these revelations just totally turned my stomach. Then add in the pardon for cash and man I really hope they get nailed.

The lack of evidence is actually evidence of his crime. You can’t get any crazier than this. Well never say never.

Not according to the spin from the Republicans.
IMO the FBI would have been negligent if they hadn’t investigated trump. There were enough oddities involving trump and the Russians that would warrant an investigation of a man running for president. As it is we still don’t know the whole story because the Mueller Team was specifically told not to follow the money. And in investigation 101 one of the first things done in this type of investigation is to follow the money. And trump was in and out of money problems for years.

The case of the missing whistleblower or blowers…
And you wonder why I refer to the House Republicans as the Keystone Cops.

Barb McQuade about Durham’s report
1 Durham Report is in. After four years, review of 1 million documents, 490 interviews, his conclusion is that FBI should have opened a preliminary investigation (PI) instead of a full investigation (FI) in 2016. THREAD
2 The only difference between FI and PI is the duration and the authorities that may be used. This is a hairsplitting quibble, and one on which FBI officials routinely disagree.
3 Durham also minimizes the reasons FBI was alarmed enough to open a FI in 2016 based on information received from Australian diplomats about Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos.
4 According to Aussies, Papadopoulos said, “Trump team had received some kind of suggestion from Russia that it could assist this process with the anonymous release of information during the campaign that would be damaging to Mrs Clinton.”
5 Papadopoulos’s statement came right after the DNC hack. FBI was properly concerned about Russia’s efforts to influence the presidential election. This was an investigation into RUSSIA.
6 Trump had other concerning ties to Russians: real estate deals, Miss Universe Pageant, loans from Russian lenders, Trump Tower Moscow project. Campaign Chairman Paul Manafort had lobbied for pro-Russian oligarchs.
7 Trump campaign members also had ties to Russia. Mike Flynn was paid $45,000 by Russia Today in 2015 for a speech he gave at a banquet where he sat next to Putin. He later lied to FBI about his calls with the Russian ambassador about sanctions during the transition.
8 Carter Page had been seen meeting with Russian intel officers. It now appears that he was unaware that they were trying to recruit him. Papadopoulos worked to set up a meeting with Putin.
9 Durham criticizes the FBI for relying on the Steele Dossier for the Carter Page FISA. Steele Dossier was not the basis for opening the investigation, but it makes for a useful scapegoat to blur that fact.
10 We now know FBI was unable to corroborate the Steele Dossier, which contained explosive details about Russian kompromat on Trump. That’s 20/20 hindsight. And, importantly, Durham never says the information in it was false, just unconfirmed.
11 In fact, some aspects of Steele Dossier were confirmed by Mueller and DNI: Putin favored Trump and was working to influence the election in Trump’s favor and against Clinton. It also contained unconfirmed information that could have seriously compromised Trump as president.
12 Failing to investigate these ties would have been a breach of duty by FBI. This was an investigation into RUSSIA. Russia was the threat and the focus. Trump was just Russia’s useful idiot.
13 Page FISA also was based on an e-mail altered by an FBI lawyer. That lawyer was identified by IG, not Durham, and he was properly convicted for making false statements. Mueller disregarded all aspects of Page FISA.
14 In addition to criticizing the FBI for opening a FI instead of a PI, Durham also ignores other facts and helps advance the narrative that the Russia investigation was a hoax.
15 Like Barr, Durham says Mueller found no conspiracy between Trump and Russia but fails to mention the 2016 Trump Tower meeting to receive dirt on Clinton, sharing of polling data with Russian intel officer Konstantin Kilimnik, and coordinating of messaging with Wikileaks.
16 Durham also ignores Trump’s public statement, “Russia, if you’re listening …” asking them to find Clinton’s missing emails, and the subsequent release of hacked emails hours after the release of the Access Hollywood tape.
17 The result of Durham’s four-year investigation is two failed prosecutions of bit players outside of government and a recommendation for FBI to hire someone to oversee their FISA work.
18 But the Durham Report provides fuel for the false claim that the Russia probe was a hoax. Don’t fall for it. While Mueller found no conspiracy, he concluded that Russia worked to help Trump become president.
19 And rather than report Russia’s overtures to FBI, Trump’s campaign was willing to accept the help.
20 The only winner here is Russia, which succeeded in its mission to get its favored candidate elected, sow discord in the United States, and undermine public trust in American institutions.

They have no proof of any wrongdoing and lost or misplaced their whistleblowers so what’s should be illegal?

My question is why do they think they need all those flags? Does that make them think they are more American than those who stand in front of one or two flags?
