Remember that Pompeo went after Hillary for the Benghazi “cover up”
WASHINGTON — As a member of Congress, Mike Pompeo drove the Republican inquiry into the killing of a United States ambassador in Benghazi, Libya, and made clear there was no place for politics in American diplomacy. Nor, he said, would he tolerate “dithering” by an Obama administration State Department that he called “deeply obstructive of getting the American people the facts that they needed.”
And it is crystal clear that Ukraine knew that a WH visit was conditional on releasing a press release that they would investigate Biden. Complete quid pro quo.
I’m listening to Preet’s latest podcast where Caller #2 asks “why don’t we just lock these fuckers up for contempt of Congress?” and the answer is maddening. “There is technically an option for that spelled out in the law but it would cause a big headache and would be divisive and might even cause drama and no one even knows where we would house them.”
I’m now officially on Team We Are All Fucked until further notice, man. Turbo-fucked. There are zero mechanisms in place to stop subpoenaed witnesses like Rudy from dropping trou, farting into the mike and walking out the door. Literally, if this happens they don’t have any kind of process in place, they don’t have a clue where they would even house an uncooperative witness. Like I guess it hasn’t occurred to the Sergeant-At-Arms that this sort of thing might actually happen and we should be ready for it. At the end of the call, Preet mentions that this sort of thing may have happened in the past but he isn’t familiar with it BECAUSE HE HASN’T BOTHERED TO EVEN LOOK IT UP. He knows this is a theoretical exercise and not a thing that will actually happen.
These ghouls are going to lie to Congress and they will tell Pelosi to go fuck herself and none of them will be held accountable.There isn’t even a jail. No one has even thought about the possibility that we might need a jail.
Seriously, download the latest episode of Stay Tuned With Preet and listen from 3:00-7:00. Preet talks about the option to lock these fools up for contempt in the same way I hear researchers talk about the Majorana fermion: interesting to think about in a very abstract, theoretical way, but lol we’re not ever going to see it, that would be absurd.
one of my favorite parts of reading the mueller report were all the footnotes at the bottom of evidence from text exchanges like “tell your friend that I talked to T about more black caviar opportunities” that explain multiple people testified under oath that they all understood they were talking about a Ukrainian oligarch, trump, and illegal cash payments
Welcome, but it’s team Hyper Turbo fucked now. Like, last rebuy level, 4 bullets in, should leave to beat traffic but don’t because lol degen, shove 80% of range, hyper turbo fucked.
