This is all incredible and is going to make a blockbuster movie one day.
Is the American government doing anything other than weaving and dodging through the various Trump controversies? I mean aside from providing the world with what amounts to the most watched soap opera on tv at the moment, this administration has been rendered completely ineffective. I'd be curious to understand the backlog of actual "work" piling up.
Paul Ryan still rejecting calls for a special prosecutor. How long before the GOP establishment continue to put their necks on the line for the WH dumpster fire? When will they cave to pressure. Maybe the rumors are true and Ryan/McConnell are funneling money from Russia into GOP coffers? Given the source of this knew about the subpeonas and grand jury summons over two weeks prior to when they actually happened I hope this is true. Hopefully the FBI raids on the GOP offices will show results

House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) on Wednesday rejected calls for an independent commission and special prosecutor to handle ongoing investigations into alleged ties between the Trump campaign and Russia, saying doing so could "compromise" U.S. intelligence gathering.
"I don’t think that’s a good idea. I think, first of all, we have three investigations going on right now," Ryan said on Fox News. "We have a House investigation by our Intelligence Committee, which is the appropriate to do that, I believe. And we have a Senate Intelligence Committee ... doing an investigation. And you have the FBI investigating all things Russia.
"I think the intelligence committees are the ones that should do this, because, don’t forget that the methods and sources of our intelligence gathering are also at play here, and we have to be very sensitive so that we don’t compromise that information as well."
In the wake of President Trump's abrupt decision to fire FBI Director James Comey Tuesday night, Democratic lawmakers, joined by some Republicans, amped up calls for a independent commission to probe Trump and his associates' ties with Moscow.

Trump Interview With Lester Holt: President Asked Comey If He Was Under Investigation

The president also reiterated his claim that he had been planning to fire Comey even before he received Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein's recommendation to do so.
I'm just waiting to see the leaked footage of Trump throwing a tantrum in the Oval Office.
And then everyone starts to gather around this maniac crying and laughing and yelling. Then they slowly realize he's a god damn lunatic and psychopath.

It'll be more like Scarface. You know that's what Mar-a-Lago looks like. Him facedown in a mountain of KFC as the FBI closes in.

Huckabee just said that the White House would have to "agree to disagree" with acting FBI director McCabe's assessment that Comey had the confidence of FBI agents. Wtf?
