AL's questions regarding the process behind the report and related events were appropriate and fair imo, and directly address much of the narrative that has been pushed regarding Barr/Mueller interactions. He punted on all of them. 

He said at the outset that he had to because the president invoked executive privilege and Barr's letter this week instructed him not to answer anything of that nature.

Just to make sure I have the alternative facts straight...  Our government -- but I'm guessing only the deep state part of it --- is now guilty of torturing a poor, naive Russian exchange student who

I don't believe for a moment that any of this is entertaining to you.  I think it gives you a bit of anxiety knowing that your best weapon against a group who you despise is a bumbling fraud as a busi

One thing is becoming clear.

This isn't the end of any of this.

And A&M just runs out of time and will win the National Championship sometime this century.

I think the Dems lost the chance to make this matter when they didn't move to impeach two weeks after reading the goddamn report.

It's pretty clear they were pinning their hopes on Mueller doing their jobs for them.

I know you’re trolling and doing a bit, but the fact that the sitting President could be indicted the minute he leaves office for acts completed *while President* is a big fucking deal. 

Don’t engage that fuckstick, that phrase is posted a thousand times on this and TOS by a dozen people trolling.

I think it's going ok. Dems just getting the report on tape for the news channels to run short clips. Repubs seem a bit unhinged just yelling and pontificating.

MSNBC gets their soundbites.  Fox gets their's.  And nothing changes politically wrt impeachment.

For someone who was exonerated and did nothing wrong, Trump and the Rs sure are acting like they are defending somoene who was not exonerated.  Dems strategy through all of this has been completely fubar and that continues through this clown show.  In sum, the President attempted to obstruct justice repeatedly.  Our Congress have their heads so far up there asses, nothing will happen.

Jim Jordan is skyrocketing up my list of least favorite people in Washington.  

His culpability in the Ohio State wrestling sexual abuse scandal should be enough for him to be on the top of that list regardless of you political affiliation.  He's a regular Art Briles/Joe Paterno.

Not right now, but investigations will continue through 2019 and into 2020. Those investigations may or may not damage a sitting president up for re-election.

Seems like Jordan got under Mueller's skin a bit there at the end.  Hopefully the Republicans keep this up all day, especially that part about the impeachable conduct that was raised at the beginning.  Maybe we can get one of those Carl Lee Hailey moments out of Mueller (although I'm not holding my breath)...

Can someone explain "I take your question"  Google gives me nothing. People in the room got a good laugh out of it, but I am missing the reference. 

I could be wrong, but I took the phrase to mean, "I understand your question, though I will not be answering."  And the reason it was funny is because there was no question, just rambling, screaming pontification.   So he was mocking the questioner in the driest, most understated way possible.

I posted this ~ noon yesterday.  How close did I get?  I'm not watching today.

Well, we know Gym Jordan won't wear his sportcoat, at least for long, and he'll probably roll up his sleeves, and he'll definitely act shocked and outraged at the injustice playing out in front of him.  And then he'll ignore over a hundred young men being sexually abused by an associate.

i was only listening on npr on my way in to the office, but, to me, it sounded like mueller was about to say that "[he] took issue with your implication" or something like that, but when the gavel went down, he just prevaricated in a bit of a dry, sarcastic way, highlighting that here was no question there at all.
