Revenge prosecutions are SO Trumpy.

Actually, they're a hallmark of authoritarianism.

Something the anti-gubmint right should be against but will cheer because they were never actually anti-government, just anti-government doing anything to control or regulate what they want to do.

Considering your complete lack of understanding of the topic is based on the Trump fed talking points you believe uncritically, I'll take this post with a metric ton of salt.

The statute of limitations for his lies to congress has expired. So, they must be looking at his interview with Durham or his 2023 congressional testimony. I am referring to Brennan.

Brennen and Comey followed the Evidence and the Law... two things that Traitor Trump and his sycophants here have no use for in American anymore.

Almost all their witnesses were Trumpers testifying under Oath. And Trump's Campaign Manager was a Russian asset, according to the Republican-led Congressional Committee Report.

Yup, and that like you cite shows at.

But as your comment states, following the law seems to be something that Pres Trump and his cult have no use for anymore. Now it all seems to be about unfettered adulation of the cult leader, Pres Trump.


Obey or be subject to a primary challenge.

You really should cite your source. www.lawfaremedia.org

Btw, the "report" and this "investigation" are but another example of the Buffoon Buffooning. www.lawfaremedia.org

Well then game on, now no concerns over prosecutions of Ice Barbie, Hoebag, Google Eyed Kash, and Mediocre Goebbels and others for numerous civil rights violations, kidnapping, and human trafficking.

#14. Brennan lied to Congress on at least 3 occasions. I already pointed out that he's fortunate the statute of limitations for perjury expired for those lies.

#16. To Congress. But it doesn't matter now as those lies have exceeded the statute of limitations.

@#19 ... Gutes Deutsch....

Interesting that you seem to note that Deutsch is neuter, and provide the proper preceding adjective.

I don't see that often.
