    My guess is that they're just nibbling around the edges as to not interfere with Durham, and have been advised of such.

    That's what the senate should be doing, they have the power to amend bills. If they dont like all the pork in Pelosis bill cut it out..... DOA isn't an answer to me

    Everyone knows Hunter had some wild party days. I mean we aren’t exactly breaking any new ground here.

    The impeachment hearings will begin on 1/20/21, if Biden is elected.

    What comes around goes around.

    Battleship’s only have four spaces — can’t even do sarcasm right
    Smh

    Strange that all of this is happening all so close to the election but I love the precedent it is setting!

    There is very little chance of a Republican take over of the house so...
    I wouldn’t make any bets on your opinion, or maybe do...

    I do look forward to the many many investigations that are coming though!

    This isn't about November. This is about if this man(Joe Biden) improperly pulled strings to protect or even advance his son's career or not. And at large, the activities of the previous regime which culminated into us chasing invisible Russians. Due to their lies, it took 3 years but now they get to enjoy the same activities they subjugated others to. Subponea's and documents and records.

    It's a tragedy that it takes this, since they had any avenue in 3 years to tell the truth about related incidences. Obviously the need for subpoena's is highlighted in the lack of cooperation.

    This has EVERYTHING to do with the election. LOL

    Since they knew the information they have now for as long as they did, why may I ask did they decide NOW to make this announcement? LOL

    ANYTHING to distract people from how much of an idiot our POTUS is, huh?

    If you didn’t realize we’re in the general election cycle, you know now. The Senate is going to be tossing the kitchen sink at us with subpoenas and hearings.

    I’d suggest Biden and whomever take utilize the same tact of compliance as Trump or at least respond, “We’ll respond as soon as the President does.” Play offense.

    Because a good deal of the information was CLASSIFIED and until Ric Grenell(who doesn't give a **** and we should be thankful every day of his position), the DNI didn't respond even though Trump gave them the authority to declassify as early as LAST YEAR(IE: One year before the election.)

    That's why they are agreeing to Ratcliff, they now see him as the "lesser of two evils" as they consider transparency "political" ROFL. Let's talk about that sadness for a second. It's OUR GOVERNMENT, supposed to act on our BEHALF. Transparency(to the extent it doesn't reveal "sources and methods") should be paramount. After all, even Obama bragged about it(at least as a political canard stick before being more secretive than Bush.)

    But now, it's "political" and even "sources and methods" are now questionable as under the redactions aren't sources and methods, but stuff like $70,000 for office chairs for the FBI. Our federal government is clearly corrupt, furthermore this corruption goes as far back as the Obama Administration, maybe even farther back.

    Now more then ever, we need to drain the swamp and remove those who would abuse their offices from power. And no, abusing your office isn't engaging an in inquiry that any decent person would ask given the publicly available information. Abusing your office is banning sunflower seeds, in America!

    If I were asked about our freedom index rating, I'd bring it down to Ukrainian levels. I do not trust our Congress or our government, in fact what Burr has shown us is that insider trading is STILL a thing even after Obama outlawed it.

    So yes, Mr. McConnell, for the sake of the country I love I will be very political for transparency. Because those in high office, even under oath cannot be trusted to tell us the truth. They utter "in an unclassified setting" or "sources or methods" and when that doesn't work, they betray the oath and lie openly in public.

    So yes, no confidence is the perfect description of my feelings. As is the NCAA's statement "Lack of Institutional Control."

    Just a big nothingburger.

    That said, when they bring an indictment feel free to get back to me.

    Until then? :bored:

    There is always impeachment. And obstructionism.. especially where supreme court justices are concerned

    Tell the House to impeach or RGB will not be replaced, period.

    If Joe won't debate Trump he's lost already.

    You think Trump is going to debate?

    "President Trump, 6 months you said we have 14 Corona cases which would pretty soon be zero, today we have 400,000 dead Americans. Do you still "not take any responsibility at all"?

    yah right... hahaha
