Vindman is gaining confidence - and I don't know what the hell Castor is doing.

Neither does he. 

[Hiphopopotamos 20865]

Castor now going through the R's talking points about 'concerns' that WH staff had with Vindmann's competence.

If Hunter or Joe did something illegal, it would seem likely that the DOJ would actually decide to investigate them. You know the dept that Trump has some ability to control. Of course, I imagine that even Barr has turned down this request from Trump. "We can't just investigate your opponents because you want them to be investigated. Gotta give me something.  Something that isn't sourced from Alex Jones or Rudy."

 

Again, this needs to become a bigger talking point:

 

[SuingToGetAMessageBoard? 3861]

Adding to the never ending few good men parallels, we even have an “i’d appreciate if he addressed me as colonel or sir.”

We won't do that because the ruling class will think they are joined by the other 98% in the belief that men like these, men of such background (and color) aren't really, really criminals like the faceless people we throw in the slammer everyday to be raped and forced into committing prison crimes.

 

This punchable-faced Frenchman and his friends once thought the same thing. Shit can go real south, real fast. 

[Captainant 27403]

Lmao Vindman telling castor to his face that it's laughable that he would leave US service. He even chuckled as he said it. Get fucked, you fucking shit heel republicans for trying to tarnish an honorable man

That seems risky to do. The truth is something Vindman has on his side. 

[WhatTheBuck 28703]

How is it an indictment of Vindman that the Ukrainians like him?

[WhatTheBuck 28703]

No, Castor, he didn't agree to your "not too outlandish" characterization. You're dissembling. 

[Mrs Whiggins 13049]

Republicans have the Van Drew statement on their posters today. They better be thankful that the Democrats haven’t returned the favor but then the Democrats are taking this inquiry seriously.

Wasn’t The House a Republican majority the last 5 or 6 years? Why didn’t the investigate the Bidens?

Hey CBS News -- replace the toner cartridge in your copy machine.

They were to busy approving and passing funding for the President's border wall.

Because they think he's really a white nationalist.

Yep, and actually it should be noted that the US policy isn't about announcing investigations on CNN, it's about actually wanting an investigation to occur. By the way, if Joe Biden did something wrong, I'm 100% behind going after him. However it's not a crime if his adult son took a job in Ukraine, even if the optics are horrible. By the way if Don Jr. took a job with a foreign company, I would say the same.

[Chad Fuck 17548]

Haha.  Fuck you Gym Jordan.  Go get a gottdam jacket before you talk to Vindman. 

[Doc Sam Beckett 5782]

Lulz Vindman dunking on Gym. I have to hand it to Jordan, he gets posterized over and over again and keeps coming back for more... 

[Chad Fuck 17548]

At least on NPR I get the see the blondie behind Jordan while his insipid questioning is occurring.

[Biff Tannen 45491]

Lol, Jordan is such a maroon.

[WhatTheBuck 28703]

How can you be worried about a perfect call being leaked?

[HenryJames 65884]

 

[Mrs Whiggins 13049]

Jordan belongs in a box he is such a tool. 

[TexEx15 17456]

Holy shit that was great. “Well let me just read my most recent evaluation...”. 

[Longhornfan1024 1707]

I keep on seeing posts about this hot blonde, but have yet to see any pics.  The fuck is wrong with you, surl?

[Mrs Whiggins 13049]

Himes strengthening witness character. Good. 

[WhatTheBuck 28703]

Bring it, Himes. 

[Vito Andolini 9098]

Gym was injured in duty as well, twisting his ankle as he ran from accusations he knew about kid diddling

[Doc Sam Beckett 5782]

Got damn Himes

Gotta watch NPR while Gym Jordan is on.

It's a great sacrifice, but I made it.

 

[GopherRock 1765]

Mike Conaway yields to John Ratcliffe...

[Mrs Whiggins 13049]

RATcliffe from Texas going with the media angle.

And the explicit ‘bribery,’ angle. Coaching by the mob is effective...

[Longhorn_Fan68 33831]

haha, wtf is Ratcliffe doing?

[WhatTheBuck 28703]

Ratcliffe responding to Pelosi's branding of Trump's corruption as bribery by getting witnesses to admit the word "bribery" was never used. 

[Vito Andolini 9098]

If Ratcliffe does a good job, he may get a cabinet appointment. Wait, what’s that?

[Dahobbs 17420]

Apparently we should have been asking for legal conclusions from fact witnesses. Weird.  Also, quid pro quo is different from bribery or extortion for some reason that I don't really understand. Quid pro quo is generally an element of both bribery and extortion..

Edited November 19, 2019 by Dahobbs

[SmokeyTheBear 5562]

This argument is a joke. "No one said the word bribery, so there is no case!"

[Longhorn_Fan68 33831]

so far he hasn't asked a single question. this is just grandstanding

[Homercles 10205]

No collusion bribery!

[GopherRock 1765]

The last time a Republican member of an impeachment inquiry swam in transcripts, it only served to prove the point that the evidence against the President was overwhelming.

[Biff Tannen 45491]

I'll take synonyms for $500 Alex.

[Vito Andolini 9098]

Witnesses are all, “If you’re just gonna make a speech, do we need to be here?”

[Mrs Whiggins 13049]

No way Ratcliffe wrote that. 

[Horn Dog 9671]

Ratcliffe-  Sure there was an offer of exchange of something of value in exchange for something else, but bribery?  Come on!

[kevwun 15608]

According to Republican logic, you can kill someone as long as you don't refer to it as murder.

That’s de-lifeing....totally different,  and also not illegal since the term “de-lifeing” is not in the constitution.

[Guest Lobo]

So they’re pro-delife?
