we are more or less at a standstill.
If FOX decides it is worth reporting, then all hell will break loose. It will be all over talk radio and it will be over for this nest of spies.
Once again, Republicans have screwed our country, bigly. They refuse to defend our country from foreign and domestic enemies.
They are either extremely naive or they are outward traitors?

<snip>
Republicans on Monday blocked Democrats attempt to obtain President Trumps tax returns.
House Republicans won a procedural vote, 229-185, that called for his IRS returns. The Wall Street Journal reported that all Democrats were in favor of the release.
If theres nothing there, then what are Republicans afraid of? Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said. She reportedly said Republicans made themselves accomplices to Trump in hiding his financial affairs.
Trumps refusal to disclose his tax returns is a break with presidential tradition. He has said he would be happy to release them after the completion of an IRS audit.
Two weeks ago, House Republicans blocked an attempt by Democrats to use an obscure law to obtain the tax returns from the IRS. Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee tried to frame the issue as a matter of national security, questioning whether Trump has any investments in Russia.

Movies, TV , sports music, etc. Let them try to live in abubble universe of Fox, Breitbart, and talk radio. We, the majority majority, are the backbone of this shindig. We can no longer act like we aren't.

(5,829 posts)What I want to see is more reporting not just on Sessions and Kislyak, but details of Sessions and his staffers having close connections during campaign to Flynn, Carter Page, and others with direct Russian ties. There have been several earlier articles about these interactions. At the least Sessions must recuse himself
