So You are ok with Taking Bill Barr’s word for Gospel as to what is in the Mueller report?
There is nothing to see here don’t worry your pretty little head about such complicated things like treason, conspiracy and the 34 indictments that came out of the Muller probe.Bill Barr doesn’t know if a crime has even been committed.
“My colleagues might think it’s OK that the Russians offered dirt on the Democratic candidate for president as part of what’s described as the Russian government’s effort to help the Trump campaign. You might think that’s OK.
“My colleagues might think it’s OK that when that was offered to the son of the president, who had a pivotal role in the campaign, that the president’s son did not call the FBI; he did not adamantly refuse that foreign help – no, instead that son said that he would ‘love’ the help with the Russians.
“You might think it’s OK that he took that meeting. You might think it’s OK that Paul Manafort, the campaign chair, someone with great experience running campaigns, also took that meeting. You might think it’s OK that the president’s son-in-law also took that meeting. You might think it’s OK that they concealed it from the public. You might think it’s OK that their only disappointment after that meeting was that the dirt they received on Hillary Clinton wasn’t better. You might think that’s OK.
“You might think it’s OK that when it was discovered, a year later, that they then lied about that meeting and said that it was about adoptions. You might think that it’s OK that it was reported that the president helped dictate that lie. You might think that’s OK. I don’t.
“You might think it’s OK that the campaign chairman of a presidential campaign would offer information about that campaign to a Russian oligarch in exchange for money or debt forgiveness. You might think that’s OK, I don’t.
“You might think it’s OK that that campaign chairman offered polling data to someone linked to Russian intelligence. I don’t think that’s OK.
“You might think it’s OK that the president himself called on Russia to hack his opponent’s emails, if they were listening. You might think it’s OK that later that day, in fact, the Russians attempted to hack a server affiliated with that campaign. I don’t think that’s OK.
“You might think it’s OK that the president’s son-in-law sought to establish a secret back channel of communication with the Russians through a Russian diplomatic facility. I don’t think that’s OK.
“You might think it’s OK that an associate of the president made direct contact with the GRU through Guccifer 2.0 and WikiLeaks, that is considered a hostile intelligence agency. You might think it’s OK that a senior campaign official was instructed to reach that associate and find out what that hostile intelligence agency had to say in terms of dirt on his opponent.
“You might think it’s OK that the national security adviser designate secretly conferred with the Russian ambassador about undermining U.S. sanctions, and you might think it’s OK that he lied about it to the FBI.
“You might say that’s all OK, that’s just what you need to do to win. But I don’t think it’s OK. I don’t think it’s OK. I think it’s immoral, I think it’s unethical, I think it’s unpatriotic and, yes, I think it’s corrupt – and evidence of collusion.”
“Now I have always said that the question of whether this amounts to proof of conspiracy was another matter. Whether the special counsel could prove beyond a reasonable doubt the proof of that crime would be up to the special counsel, and I would accept his decision, and I do. He’s a good and honorable man, and he is a good prosecutor.
“But I do not think that conduct, criminal or not, is OK. And the day we do think that’s OK is the day we will look back and say that is the day that America lost its way.”
Dana, you might think it is OK. It is not. Aren’t you just a little jealous Fearless Leader will never be able to speak so well as Mr. Schiff. To show you what statesmanship looks like. There used to be some Republicans with that level of manhood. Where did they go? I know it must make you sad. Adam Schiff drove the entire Republican members into the carpet. Those who came with a letter demanding his resignation. The only thing Trump can do is act like a spoiled third grader in a schoolyard scrap, which he lost. He puts our nation to shame and you defend him? The whole body of the UN laughed at him to his face, and you defend him? He stood beside Putin and declared that he took Putin’s word over our own intelligence, and you defend him? He stood before his rally crowd last night and lied like a yellow-haired dog, and you defend him.
It is the duty of Congress to investigate and to hold check on the President, whoever that may be. Now you ridicule Adam Schiff for doing his constitutional duty. Where was this concern when Devon Nunes, committee chairman, made a fool of himself running back and forth to the Whitehouse getting his orders? Do you really think the world is so blind?

Adam Shiff’s passionate defense of Rule of Law:
