    Oh look, now we have an idea for why the House Intelligence Committee meeting for this week was cancelled. Yet another effort by the Trump Administration to cover up any effort to investigate anything related to Russia.

    But...but...HILLARY'S EMAILS!!!!

    "Executive privilege"?

    Trump is sounding more like Nixon every day.

    Do you have a reason? Or is it just because you distrust any source that publishes a negative story about Trump?

    True.
    When I hear "Law and Order" from Trump, I am reminded of Sickie Dickie - and both share paranoia!
    I only hope Trumps resigns quicker.

    Because the statements from this White House are totally trustworthy. But let's take them at their word, does that mean that you expect Sally Yates to testify at the next hearing?

    Like a Dog around a Squirrel.

    Trump and his White House regularly deny the truth, even at its most easily verifiable, so the fact they deny it means absolutely nothing.

    Yes, I still stand by the argument that part of the reason that the House Intelligence Committee shut down its hearings is because of Sally Yates and her willingness to testify. The White House claims that it did nothing to stop her and that it will not do anything to stop her. As such, I expect Sally Yates will be testifying soon.
