Democrats love terrorists?

Who is the president that just allowed a great number of captured Isis members to escape by withdrawing from Syria?

No, not necessarily. And that's why it's behind closed doors.

During a fact-gathering process like this, much as in a grand jury proceeding, you don't want one person's testimony potentially influenced by what s/he heard someone else say. Hence closed doors.

This inquiry is vastly different from the last one, in which years (literally) of investigation--mostly behind closed doors-- had been conducted *before* Congress began to act. Congress is performing that fact-gathering function this time, and needs to do it with some secrecy to have the best chance of learning what actually happened.

I would add to your last point that with the baldface crier leading the GOP, some secrecy is also needed to prevent as much obstruction as possible. Now that key witnesses have given testimonies under oath, they won't be able to reverse when it all goes public.

How do we know that Rs have nada to defend with? As flagpole said, when facts are not on your side, you just argue against the process.

In fairness, a lot of economic schools of thought have moved away from hard-line stances on deficits and national debts, especially in the case of the US since our currency serves as the reserve currency for basically the whole world.

The mass-shooter terrorists seem to be all pale-skin Nazi types.

Yes, but GOP has loved using the fiscal conservatism argument, even when stimulus was executed to combat the recession. They have no credibility, or I guess they do with mouth breathers

My point is that the typical Trump voter that comprises his base are not likely to be knowledgeable about the issues. There are, of course, black people at all levels of acumen regarding politics.

Really? You think black people don't have the buoyancy to be good swimmers??? Ughh. Idiot.

I was joking, you moran.

Vindman arrives in full uniform & decorations to testify.

This is gonna be good!

Trump's taxes would be a lot more complicated than that.

He has income from many sources and likely carryover losses from the past.

Part of his income is taxed at a corporate level, which he conveniently lowered the rate on last year.

Trump is a transactional person.

He had to dissolve his charity (Trump Foundation in New York) because he used it to fund his campaign and other businesses.

I find it highly unlikely that he donated his presidential salary out of the goodness of his heart and not to benefit himself in some way.

The number of people corroborating is just overwhelming for any deep state accusation to actually stick. They would have to try to destroy the characters of all these patriots ---- it's always everyone else is wrong and agent orange is always right. Becoming an impossible situation to defend.

No, the benifit is for PR. $400K wouldn't cover even one month of the rock roll lifestyle he had before coming president. Melania's monthly wardrobe cost, alone, would have put a big dent in it.

A lot of people, including Sally, think not receiving a salary is evidence of his great character, but the reality is that $0 is a big overpay.

Also in fairness, Trump said during the campaign that he would wipe out the national debt in 2 terms. That right there should have showed everyone that he has no sense or grasp about anything.

Shut up, democrat piece of trash.

Ohio is Trump country. Time for you to vacate.

Agree, at Jim Jordan’s press conference this morning he was defending trump and had a yuge bulge in his pants.

The Republicans are questioning the patriotism of Vindman. Because he lived three years in Ukraine. A decorated combat veteran, recipient of the Purple Heart, who has dedicated his life to the defense of the united states. Calling him a potential spy and having dual loyalities.

I've never been angrier at the Republicans. Never. This is one of the most unamerican things I've ever seen.

Hold on, lets clarify... Because he lived in Ukraine until he was 3 years old

And in one of the stooge's tweet:

Contrast the reaction to the killing of Ben Laden. I and my fellow Republicans congratulated President Obama. Are we better than the Dems who are criticizing

@realDonaldTrump

. No,but maybe it can be a teaching moment to decent Americans to reject this pathology of political hate.
