"the shouty half-dressed degenerate wrestling coach pantsed himself on live television for like the eleventy-millionth time." This is just ONE of the reasons I come here. 😂 The Democrats beat up Hur and his crony Repubs... (YAY Adam Schiff and Ted Lieu-and Mad Dean is my REP!) a beautiful thing to watch. Yet, how sad it is that our government is so fucked up that taxpayers have to pay for this kind of crap. What is the GOP doing to enhance the lives of ordinary Americans? Not one fucking thing. I hate them all.
Here's a suggestion, though historical. In all the hubub over the Biden memory lapse fabrifukincation, there is NO mention of what was going on in world on the day of the interview that POTUS made time for while he was on the phone with all the heads of our military, State Dept and world leaders dealing with trying to keep a handle on Neddie the YAHOO and preventing the obliteration of the Palestinian people. while at the same time asserting the US commitment to the defense of Israel. He made time to be interviewed by that muthrfukinasswipe while doing ALL that SIMILFUKINTANIOUSLY!!!!! It wasn't even brought up by Dems during the hearing.
Yep, he can do the job and campaign for the next 4 years while DOING the job! Certainly by now, some folk must realize Biden is the best decision going forward and may vote Blue, or just NOT vote for him and encourage others to skip it.
You can't do much with a solid 30-35% cult base when the guy leading the party is a criminal and mentally impaired with severe personality disorders like Malignant Narcissism and probably a level of psychopathology. At least half the cult can't recognize it, or worse, applaud it and or have their own impairments also. Talk about the dumbing down of the citizenry...so, oh well...there's that!
Thank you for including the innocent Israelis who were slaughtered, raped, tortured, beheaded. Somewhere this gets lost in the “Palestinian” people who allowed Hamas to live under their roofs and used (use) them as human shields.
Ezra Klein deserves it most. It took Jeff, The Atlantic, The New Yorker to bitch slap the NY Times to get some accountability. I've noticed a slight shift in their reporting of late. A little more balanced.
Don’t forget Eric Swalwell, the bane of the House GOP.
From the Daily Kos:
Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell used his time during the hearing to point out the discrepancies in special counsel Robert Hur’s strangely worded report on Biden’s handling of classified documents. After noting that in the transcript of his interview with Biden, Hur remarked that the chief executive had “a photographic understanding” of things (language Hur conveniently left off his final report), Swalwell introduced a stellar supercut of Donald Trump being anything but “photographic” in his recall of … anything.
He was raised in a Republican family. Most of the men are police officers. He’s our guy from CA and believe me, he, Lieu, Schiff, Lee, and Porter are adored.
To Victoria Hochman; Yes, many agree that was an unfortunate contest.
KATIE PORTER v ADAM SCHIFF… Katie’s time for senate could come in the future. She had ‘learned the house’ quickly and used that knowledge with great results.
People everywhere appreciate her unrefutable whiteboard numbers and logic. She should stay where she shines rather than leave her spot to a new person (hopefully another Dem) who would have to learn where all the minefields are all over again. Did Katie’s advisors give her the same advice?
….Maybe they didn’t because perhaps they wanted to follow her into the senate?
…. Maybe they did encourage her to stay in the House but she ignored their advice?
As of Dec 31,2023 in California there were 40 Democrats and 11 GOP reps in the House. Of the 40 Dems, only 7 were elected since 2019. 33 Dems have way more experience working as reps than those 7 relative newcomers, of which Katie is one.
Adam Schiff has served admirably in the House for 23 years gaining invaluable experience before making a bid for a Senate seat in the U.S Congress.
Well, that was apparently how many California voters saw the situation. Mr. Schiff was successful and Katie lost. They liked Katie’s style of representation in the House and it was too soon for her to make that ambitious senate bid.
I’m not a CA voter, but I really love Katie Porter. She was so effective in the House, I so wish she hadn’t chosen to run against Schiff. imo, that was just getting too ambitious a bit too soon.
What made her think she could beat Schiff, with his 23 yrs experience & his probable greater fundraising muscle?
Now we Dems have emptied 3 House seats, when it should have been only 1
Are there some strong Dems ready to run to fill those 3 seats? I sure hope so
When I was watching the insurrection live on TV I wanted all of them dead. I’ve had it with their bullshit on every level. From spreading COVID, harassment of teachers, school board members, health care workers, poll workers, racism, inciting violence and intimidation, too many to list here.
We are all hoping Trump just wanders off the mortal coil. And considering his mental health-THAT might actually happen. Sundowner Grandpa wondering into the sprinkler system on lawn again. Maybe he will head into traffic...
4 years ago Covid came to a hospital near you. The political question has been are better today than you were 4 years ago. Another of people would say no but there are perhaps half of those in online discussions saying, everything is worse now.
I guess we could be better if Trump in his. " I don't need no stinking mask" would have just wandered off the mortal coil once he got to Walter Reed...but alas, that lucky SOB has more luck than his bad decision making would typically provide. Oh, well fingers crossed.
My father taught me at a young age to not hate anyone or anything. I am thankful he is no longer alive to see this circus/fucked-up clown show because as you, Susan, I indeed hate every single one of them, including the fucked up regime of greg abbott, dan patrick and ken paxton in Texas.
Fundie Mom Katie wants you to know - "We see you; we hear you, we stand over your bed watching you when you sleep at night...”
Will we ever tire of the never-ending saga of Katie Britt, “Americas Mom”. “Democrat’s Secret Weapon!” This is Katie’s “Jesus in a Tornado story”. “The Britts moved back to Tuscaloosa when disaster struck in 2011. Unrelenting tornadoes ripped through the state, and the Britts’ home was destroyed. It was weeks later while driving in the car with her daughter during the cleanup when her daughter asked Britt where Jesus was.”
"I pulled over to the side of the road and I'm shaking, and I said, 'Baby, did you see Jesus?' She said, 'Yes, Mama, He was with me and Roro (brother?) during the 'ro-nato,' her version of tornado. And she said He's been with me, but He just left, and I want Him to come back, 'Mama tell Him to come back.' And it just clicked, here we thought we had done such a good job, we were singing, we were praying. But He was literally with us, and I think a lot of times we need the faith of a child, and she said very direct words 'Mama, doesn't God call you to do hard things?' and I said, 'Yes, sweetheart, yes He does.”
Katie, God is calling on you to do the right thing and denounce the convicted rapist and fraudster for your daughter’s sake. If not for yourself, then for your daughter’s salvation. That is what Jesus would truly want. Do this and I promise I will never even think of you again much less mock and ridicule a willing target.
There's a big difference between the real Jesus and the Republican Jesus that Katie and the rest of the phony GOP zealots subscribe to. They will do all of the usual bullshit to worship and praise the Jesus that the phony orange skid mark uses for political gain. Never in modern times has the separation of church and state been in such danger and it's basically up to us to vote out the Christo-fascist movement.
"the real Jesus"...for some of us, that right there is an oxymoron, but that's another topic for another time...either way, the vile ignorant orange slob is literally the antichrist...he is the exact opposite of everything "the real Jesus" is about, but rebubliKKKans have somehow found "loopholes" in the word of god...you just can't make this shit up
Well that Jesus was with my brother and I comment might have freaked me out. As I remember that when shipping a shitload of papers and stuff from the port in Oakland to home in Europe I noticed when it arrived that it had all been placed on the cargo ship by Jesus. It is a common Latino name.
Funny, that all seeing God that had favorites and where he didn't make it 3/4 of the earth, so sorry folks, you are SOL. At 6 years old I saw the flaw in "the program " and really pissed off the nuns in my school. Losing my religion but fortunately gaining public school the following year!
I watched Aaron Rupar’s video thread on this yesterday. After picking my jaw up off the floor at some of Hur’s testimony, I got a huge bowl of popcorn and watched the Dems pulverize him. The resulting goo belongs in a hazmat bin.
Hur really was a “bitchy” witness. He will make a perfect supreme court justice along with aileen cannon if dump is coronated. There are some real heroes like Raskin, Schiff and Swalwell that absolutely blister Hurs ass. This is must see tv on youtube “Hearing on the Report of Special Counsel robert hur. Skip the repugs word salad diatribe, get a bag of popcorn and listen to all Democrats.
Well said Kay-El! That was the best damn team of Democratic lawmakers I have ever seen, It was a pure joy watching what anyone would have thought of as being pretty boring event turn into a bonfire of republican garbage.
Take the fucking gloves off and start swinging!!! Don’t stop until well after the November elections— and then some. It doesn’t pay to “play nice” when the retrumplicans will stab you in the back every fucking chance they get!!!
Mr Hur not only exposed himself as a fucken lying republican hack ,but he unfortunately has smeared the Asian American population! The racist people of this country won’t hesitate to attack all people of Asian ancestry for any reason real or imagined .This shit head just by being involved in controversy on TV has made every Asian American fair game for the klannies ,Nazis and every other racist asshole in the country ,doesn’t matter if the racist bastards are repugnantcans or just our own homegrown imbeciles they’re going to be drawn to it like a fly to Shitlers ass ! Good work Robert you lying fuck !
I love to watch anything with Schiff, Swalwell, and Lieu. Hur is another one of those MAGA hacks. He "won't rule out" a position in a possible Authoritarian (read...Trump) Administration.. Is he showing what a 'loyal' AG he could be?
Wasn’t it rich? I loved watching the Dems work their usual magic with facts and preparation under their belts one would think(maybe that’s the problem to start with)that the Jims would know what to expect from our great people by now and stop banging their heads into our preparation wall. But they’re magats so, like their leader, they keep doing the same things expecting different results.
Thank you for this Jeff. First, you know Robert Hur is a Trump appointee. Integrity and Trump appointees go together like, I don't know, James Comer and intellectual capacity? Aaron Rodgers and science? Rick Perry and the ability to recall three Federal agencies? Opposition to the murderous thug Putin and tall buildings with open windows?
WHY do people keep giving Merrick Garland benefit of doubt? For what reason? He’s shown us over and over again who he is by what he does. Why won’t anyone believe it? For the sake of pure reason, Democrats, get a grip.
Did not know that but it sure explains things. Didn't somebody once say "justice delayed is justice denied?" Sure seems he's good at that. Is it just me or have others found Garland to be mealy-mouthed? Is that the right description?
He's far beyond just mealy-mouthed. He dragged his feet on prosecuting Trump for 1/6 until embarrassed into it by the 1/6 Committee. He appointed Hur as Special Counsel, read and approved Hur's outrageous report, and then waited until just before Hur's appearance at yesterday's hearing to release the transcript. Garland is in the tank for the fascists and should resign. If he doesn't, Biden should fire him for dereliction of duty.
No he's a decent man. Too decent. That's the problem. He bends too far backwards to prove he's non partisan. He doesn't understand that the playbook has changed. Dems cannot play fair any longer.
Appointing Hur to begin with, approving Hur's report and allowing it to be issued, and waiting to release the transcript are not the acts of a decent man. He looks like a partisan Republican, and to me the appearance of bias is overwhelming.
Garland is like a dog with his tail between his legs. He appears to be always looking over his shoulder and fearing MAGA retaliation rather than taking action during these dangerous, uncertain times.
"Why do people say grow some balls? Balls are weak and sensitive. If you really want to get tough, grow a vagina. Those things take a pounding!" -- Unconfirmed, but often attributed to the late, great Betty White
It has occurred to me that Biden gave Garland the benefit of the doubt by appointing him. Now Garland has turned around and stabbed him in the back. Garland had to know that Hur is a Republican stooge and that his report was intended to do damage, but approved and released the report anyway. I believe his action was deliberate and intended to do the maximum amount of harm to Biden. Garland must go.
In my opinion, in the end, it worked to our advantage … a perfect opportunity for the Dems to incinerate Hur. If done differently, well we wouldn’t be reading this historic take-down. I’d much rather have an AG who does his best to be fair and the FACT that it, once again shows how trump will arrogantly follow the carrot for his own ends… and to his own end. Dems won that round for sure. I would never prefer Dems to resort to following the low road. Truth will win the end. while we may wonder at the how it comes about, we need to remember some person’s historic words:
“…. because yesterday, the shouty half-dressed degenerate wrestling coach pantsed himself on live television for like the eleventy-millionth time.” Jeff I laughed out loud through your entire excellently written piece. In these intense and stressful times, I look so forward to reading your articles, it’s such a release!! Please don’t stop.
Yes, that’s just gross & rude. I can tell you my son died in Jan 2008, but I never remember the date. My baby sister does & always texts me to tell me she’s thinking of him. Sometimes our brains block out painful things
He is, without a doubt, in WAAAY over his head and has no political instincts. Or the ability to gauge the future based on present-day data and conclusions. He really couldn't have seen this coming?
I don’t think you can be a member of the Federalist Society without being pretty damned conservative & and
“originalist” in your interpretation of the Constitution. I don’t think I will ever trust a jurist that belongs to that group after learning about Leonard Leo, who was a top dog there for 30 yrs, & all of the horrible judges (& AGs, DAs, etc) that he has shepherded into position.
Could be that all the senility talk might have been misdirected and Garland is the drooling idiot in the room ! Either that or he’s just a rat bastard!
Or get so pissed off by what they are sure they know about President Biden's views on the extremely simple situation that is Israel-Palestine-Hamas-Iran-Saudi-Houthis-Hezbollah-Turkey-Lebanon-et al that they "own" us all by voting OPP - Other Putin Party. You really think Putin put all his eggs in one basket? LOL. He's not stupid.
Who knows ducking out like he did ,perhaps the slime ball is a target 🎯 for his own party because he fucked up ,and didn’t give them the dirt they expected? They twist everything they come into contact with to make it seem that they’re doing something right!
Just as Tiedrich and others have said, that it doesn’t work for the AG to pick a Repugnantcan to investigate a Democrat and it will NEVER work. The lying, fascist, mother f*cking GOP will accuse a democrat who is the investigator of partisanship, but they will, of course, accuse a known and appointed Repugnantcan of being a democratic partisan if they don’t like the answers their getting. This goes on the long list of things that don’t work with an immoral and completely dead GOP.
My question is how was it appropriate in an interview about documents to ask Biden when his son died? Was the knife so dull that he had to go there? Yep, Hur is a sack of hot garbage who witnessed his own career die yesterday. Once again, repeat after me, whatever tffg touches dies.
Judge Cannon, trumps handpicked, paid for judge in Florida is deciding whether to release the witness list to the maga crime organization on the “Stolen Documents Case”. She seems to be unaware of one of Mob Boss trumps m.o.’s, which is to entice the crazies to constantly make death threats. The protection business used to be a mob only activity. Now with trump’s stochastic form of terrorism, thousands of people have had to hire guards for their family’s protection. Donnie Jr. plans to set up a new protection business called “WE KEEP YOU ALIVE” to help out and keep safe his father’s ‘friends’.
She's perfectly aware of what will happen to the witnesses, and she doesn't give a damn. Time to go to the 11th Circuit and get her booted off the case for her brazen and blatant bias.
I think Loose Canon is obviously getting some help from judges who are smarter than she is. Some of the things she done has walked right up to the line & put her toe right at it, & made decisions that are negative for us, causing delays; & yet not truly enough for Smith to be positive he can get her removed. That crap of her refusing to decide on the Motion to Dismiss, & instead leaving it there for trump to pull out of the hat later; even after the trial has started & arguments made. She isn’t smart enough to figure that out by herself: dismiss it outright now & give Smith cause to remove her or kick it down the road & then dismiss it after trial begins when Smith would have no recourse; case over, Trump goes free & there’s nothing we can do about it!!! Someone is feeding her that shit!!
When facts can be "alternative" there's no truth, so there's no tangled web for them. They can say whatever they want, whatever fits the moment. Because there 's no reasoning, accountability, or hypocrisy for them. And it all leads directly to no rule of law. It's how they operate and it's exactly what drives us nuts. That's how I see it anyway.
Tiffany is SO proud he's able to use "Praetorian Guard".., no doubt he's been beating that special sausage for decades. Wotta putz. And that's the most charitable thing I can say about all this.
I wondered why Hur so often replied with statements like “that word does appear on page 47 of the transcript” when asked to confirm things he supposedly had heard and recorded. Lead me to wonder if perhaps he had a ghost writer.
"the shouty half-dressed degenerate wrestling coach pantsed himself on live television for like the eleventy-millionth time." This is just ONE of the reasons I come here. 😂 The Democrats beat up Hur and his crony Repubs... (YAY Adam Schiff and Ted Lieu-and Mad Dean is my REP!) a beautiful thing to watch. Yet, how sad it is that our government is so fucked up that taxpayers have to pay for this kind of crap. What is the GOP doing to enhance the lives of ordinary Americans? Not one fucking thing. I hate them all.
Thanks Jeff, you have slapped the shit out of Katie Britt and Ezra Klein and Robert Hur, can you give us a hint as to who is up next?
I dunno. what I write tomorrow will be based on what happens today — and today has barely gotten started
Here's a suggestion, though historical. In all the hubub over the Biden memory lapse fabrifukincation, there is NO mention of what was going on in world on the day of the interview that POTUS made time for while he was on the phone with all the heads of our military, State Dept and world leaders dealing with trying to keep a handle on Neddie the YAHOO and preventing the obliteration of the Palestinian people. while at the same time asserting the US commitment to the defense of Israel. He made time to be interviewed by that muthrfukinasswipe while doing ALL that SIMILFUKINTANIOUSLY!!!!! It wasn't even brought up by Dems during the hearing.
Yep, he can do the job and campaign for the next 4 years while DOING the job! Certainly by now, some folk must realize Biden is the best decision going forward and may vote Blue, or just NOT vote for him and encourage others to skip it.
You can't do much with a solid 30-35% cult base when the guy leading the party is a criminal and mentally impaired with severe personality disorders like Malignant Narcissism and probably a level of psychopathology. At least half the cult can't recognize it, or worse, applaud it and or have their own impairments also. Talk about the dumbing down of the citizenry...so, oh well...there's that!
NOT the “obliterating “ of the Palestinians! The response to horrific torture and murder of innocent Israeli people!!!
Thank you for including the innocent Israelis who were slaughtered, raped, tortured, beheaded. Somewhere this gets lost in the “Palestinian” people who allowed Hamas to live under their roofs and used (use) them as human shields.
You are so right. * sigh. People dont get that part. But the whole thing is such a mess. I have no answers...
I don't know how you do it but you do it.
Or, now for all our proofreading folk... you be doing it good, REAL, real good!
Bitch slap 'em, baby!
Here's another suggestion: cite quotes from the transcript of the five hours Trump sat down with Jack Smith. Wait, wut? No transcript? What about the transcript of him taking the fifth 450 times? Or the video: https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/31/politics/trump-deposition-video-letitia-james/index.html
Great question...but he has so many to choose from! 😂😂
Eenie meenie miney mo…..catch a liar by the toe
FYI, nice Substack you got there, baby!
Hey thank you kindly!!!💙
Fyi, female and 69 on sat. Just reading that note and considering tone in an ambiguous format.
You're only slightly ahead of me! Just turned 68 in September! Keep on rockin'! 😁
Ezra Klein deserves it most. It took Jeff, The Atlantic, The New Yorker to bitch slap the NY Times to get some accountability. I've noticed a slight shift in their reporting of late. A little more balanced.
I hope so.
Maybe all the people on this stack saying they cancelled & told them why
Don’t forget Eric Swalwell, the bane of the House GOP.

Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell used his time during the hearing to point out the discrepancies in special counsel Robert Hur’s strangely worded report on Biden’s handling of classified documents. After noting that in the transcript of his interview with Biden, Hur remarked that the chief executive had “a photographic understanding” of things (language Hur conveniently left off his final report), Swalwell introduced a stellar supercut of Donald Trump being anything but “photographic” in his recall of … anything.
True enough! Swalwell is smart as a whip!
MAGATs attack him constantly with threats. 🤬
These people are dangerous and primitive 🙄
Lizard brains.
I'm only sorry that he and Porter were pitted against each other. She was the best!
He was raised in a Republican family. Most of the men are police officers. He’s our guy from CA and believe me, he, Lieu, Schiff, Lee, and Porter are adored.
To Victoria Hochman; Yes, many agree that was an unfortunate contest.
KATIE PORTER v ADAM SCHIFF… Katie’s time for senate could come in the future. She had ‘learned the house’ quickly and used that knowledge with great results.

Now we Dems have emptied 3 House seats, when it should have been only 1
Are there some strong Dems ready to run to fill those 3 seats? I sure hope so
I hate them too and wish their dear leader would drop DEAD.
Remember when we kept thoughts like these to ourselves? No more and it feels fucking good. 😁
When I was watching the insurrection live on TV I wanted all of them dead. I’ve had it with their bullshit on every level. From spreading COVID, harassment of teachers, school board members, health care workers, poll workers, racism, inciting violence and intimidation, too many to list here.
I am with you 100%! I was horrified and than I was incensed with anger.
By 1/6, that is.
We are all hoping Trump just wanders off the mortal coil. And considering his mental health-THAT might actually happen. Sundowner Grandpa wondering into the sprinkler system on lawn again. Maybe he will head into traffic...
He’s quite the rake stepper.
Oh, yes he is. Such an AssClown how is he anyone's candidate?
4 years ago Covid came to a hospital near you. The political question has been are better today than you were 4 years ago. Another of people would say no but there are perhaps half of those in online discussions saying, everything is worse now.
I guess we could be better if Trump in his. " I don't need no stinking mask" would have just wandered off the mortal coil once he got to Walter Reed...but alas, that lucky SOB has more luck than his bad decision making would typically provide. Oh, well fingers crossed.
It is very freeing. And I have no second thoughts about any of my comments. ✌️💙
Amen!
I’m right there with you
My father taught me at a young age to not hate anyone or anything. I am thankful he is no longer alive to see this circus/fucked-up clown show because as you, Susan, I indeed hate every single one of them, including the fucked up regime of greg abbott, dan patrick and ken paxton in Texas.
Yup. It's just a shameful time in our history. 🤦♀️
Yay Susan! Let them have it!

I believe without a doubt that he is the antichrist. And the maga hats are the sign of the beast.
Totally I have said repeatedly that he is the antiChrist
All. Of. This.
Amen!
If Katie Britt was my mother I would have had crib death.
Well that Jesus was with my brother and I comment might have freaked me out. As I remember that when shipping a shitload of papers and stuff from the port in Oakland to home in Europe I noticed when it arrived that it had all been placed on the cargo ship by Jesus. It is a common Latino name.
A good neighbor ?
I live in Mexico and there’s thousands of Jesus’s down here. Pretty common name.
Delightful
Funny, that all seeing God that had favorites and where he didn't make it 3/4 of the earth, so sorry folks, you are SOL. At 6 years old I saw the flaw in "the program " and really pissed off the nuns in my school. Losing my religion but fortunately gaining public school the following year!

I thought Madeline Dean having Hur read his own words was epic. He tried to slither out of it but she wasn’t having any of his bullshit.
Well said Kay-El! That was the best damn team of Democratic lawmakers I have ever seen, It was a pure joy watching what anyone would have thought of as being pretty boring event turn into a bonfire of republican garbage.
Democrats finally growing spines. It's fucking about time.
Take the fucking gloves off and start swinging!!! Don’t stop until well after the November elections— and then some. It doesn’t pay to “play nice” when the retrumplicans will stab you in the back every fucking chance they get!!!
Mr Hur not only exposed himself as a fucken lying republican hack ,but he unfortunately has smeared the Asian American population!

Good work Robert you lying fuck !
Hur probably thinks that suckling up to the fascists will make him some kind of honorary white man. He has a big surprise coming.
She's a boss...
Truly one of the best.
I love to watch anything with Schiff, Swalwell, and Lieu. Hur is another one of those MAGA hacks. He "won't rule out" a position in a possible Authoritarian (read...Trump) Administration.. Is he showing what a 'loyal' AG he could be?
I’m sure Hur needed butt balm after the Dems got done with him. What an arrogant mofo.
Wasn’t it rich? I loved watching the Dems work their usual magic with facts and preparation under their belts one would think(maybe that’s the problem to start with)that the Jims would know what to expect from our great people by now and stop banging their heads into our preparation wall. But they’re magats so, like their leader, they keep doing the same things expecting different results.
😂😂😂
And the dust bin of history and we’re gonna need a bigger bin. Hopefully
Agreed, though I’m not sure there’s a bin large enough. Might have to make several trips.
Thank you for this Jeff. First, you know Robert Hur is a Trump appointee. Integrity and Trump appointees go together like, I don't know, James Comer and intellectual capacity? Aaron Rodgers and science? Rick Perry and the ability to recall three Federal agencies? Opposition to the murderous thug Putin and tall buildings with open windows?
"Democrats used Hur for a chew toy and it was glorious to behold." Jeff T
From now on, if someone calls me old -I'm going to break into song:
"Do you really want to Hur me?"
Great comment! Lol
I can't help it. I'm a laugh riot. :)
OMG 😂🤣😂
Now I having an ear worm attack 😂😂😂😂.
My work is done here. 🤓

We're going to need to start CPR over here. And we might need Miracle Max.
Oh that’s good! 🤣🤣
brilliant!
WHY do people keep giving Merrick Garland benefit of doubt? For what reason? He’s shown us over and over again who he is by what he does. Why won’t anyone believe it? For the sake of pure reason, Democrats, get a grip.
It's increasingly obvious that Garland is also a MAGA stooge. If he had any decency he'd resign today.
I don’t know about MAGA, I doubt it - but he’s certainly no hero of democracy.
Garland is Federalist Society.
Did not know that but it sure explains things. Didn't somebody once say "justice delayed is justice denied?" Sure seems he's good at that. Is it just me or have others found Garland to be mealy-mouthed? Is that the right description?
He's far beyond just mealy-mouthed. He dragged his feet on prosecuting Trump for 1/6 until embarrassed into it by the 1/6 Committee. He appointed Hur as Special Counsel, read and approved Hur's outrageous report, and then waited until just before Hur's appearance at yesterday's hearing to release the transcript. Garland is in the tank for the fascists and should resign. If he doesn't, Biden should fire him for dereliction of duty.
No he's a decent man. Too decent. That's the problem. He bends too far backwards to prove he's non partisan. He doesn't understand that the playbook has changed. Dems cannot play fair any longer.
Appointing Hur to begin with, approving Hur's report and allowing it to be issued, and waiting to release the transcript are not the acts of a decent man. He looks like a partisan Republican, and to me the appearance of bias is overwhelming.
Garland is like a dog with his tail between his legs. He appears to be always looking over his shoulder and fearing MAGA retaliation rather than taking action during these dangerous, uncertain times.
No spine and no balls

I will agree with you Mary. At 71 I hope to see a female president before I kick off.
Right behind you sistah!
Back at you Mary.
👏👏👏👏
Excellent point
He's a regular Caspar Milquetoast.
It has occurred to me that Biden gave Garland the benefit of the doubt by appointing him. Now Garland has turned around and stabbed him in the back. Garland had to know that Hur is a Republican stooge and that his report was intended to do damage, but approved and released the report anyway. I believe his action was deliberate and intended to do the maximum amount of harm to Biden. Garland must go.
In my opinion, in the end, it worked to our advantage … a perfect opportunity for the Dems to incinerate Hur. If done differently, well we wouldn’t be reading this historic take-down. I’d much rather have an AG who does his best to be fair and the FACT that it, once again shows how trump will arrogantly follow the carrot for his own ends… and to his own end. Dems won that round for sure. I would never prefer Dems to resort to following the low road. Truth will win the end. while we may wonder at the how it comes about, we need to remember some person’s historic words:
THE WHEELS OF JUSTICE GRIND SLOWLY…

“…. because yesterday, the shouty half-dressed degenerate wrestling coach pantsed himself on live television for like the eleventy-millionth time.” Jeff I laughed out loud through your entire excellently written piece. In these intense and stressful times, I look so forward to reading your articles, it’s such a release!! Please don’t stop.
Lately Jeff has even taken to writing on Sundays! (What would Katie Britt think about THAT abomination?)
I want Jeff eight days a week.
Me too!!! I love Jeff’s writing!!
What kind of heartless savage asks a parent if they remember the date their child died? Oh, never mind...
A Republican.
Yes, that’s just gross & rude. I can tell you my son died in Jan 2008, but I never remember the date. My baby sister does & always texts me to tell me she’s thinking of him. Sometimes our brains block out painful things
every day goes by Garland is worse. it hardly seems possible but...
He is, without a doubt, in WAAAY over his head and has no political instincts. Or the ability to gauge the future based on present-day data and conclusions. He really couldn't have seen this coming?
He is owned by the Republicans. Biden got snookered into appointing him and should fire him, now, before he does any more damage.
Google can’t say if he’s gop or not, so I assume he is. if he was a Democrat we’d know right?
I understand Garland is a member of the Federalist Society, so the math adds up
This is what I found.
https://lawprofessors.typepad.com/civpro/2016/03/judge-merrick-garland-was-a-repeat-moderator-for-federalist-society-events.html
Yep
of course...
I don’t think you can be a member of the Federalist Society without being pretty damned conservative & and
“originalist” in your interpretation of the Constitution. I don’t think I will ever trust a jurist that belongs to that group after learning about Leonard Leo, who was a top dog there for 30 yrs, & all of the horrible judges (& AGs, DAs, etc) that he has shepherded into position.
Could be that all the senility talk might have been misdirected and Garland is the drooling idiot in the room ! Either that or he’s just a rat bastard!
or both!
Special Counsel Hur jumped ship just before he testified. He resigned from the DOJ before the shit was scheduled to hit the fan.
Who wants to be a Republican when they grow up? Being a trash collector can get you more respect.
Guess he wanted to keep his pension before being tossed out as the f'n liar he is.
Yep, no future for him at the DOJ after that debacle.
Maybe the next DOJ, if voters stay home
Or get so pissed off by what they are sure they know about President Biden's views on the extremely simple situation that is Israel-Palestine-Hamas-Iran-Saudi-Houthis-Hezbollah-Turkey-Lebanon-et al that they "own" us all by voting OPP - Other Putin Party. You really think Putin put all his eggs in one basket? LOL. He's not stupid.
Who knows ducking out like he did ,perhaps the slime ball is a target 🎯 for his own party because he fucked up ,and didn’t give them the dirt they expected? They twist everything they come into contact with to make it seem that they’re doing something right!
I think he’s made enemies on both sides, from the GOP as you indicated, and from Dems because of his partisan bs.
Thanks for that. I had no clue.
VALID!!!
Just as Tiedrich and others have said, that it doesn’t work for the AG to pick a Repugnantcan to investigate a Democrat and it will NEVER work. The lying, fascist, mother f*cking GOP will accuse a democrat who is the investigator of partisanship, but they will, of course, accuse a known and appointed Repugnantcan of being a democratic partisan if they don’t like the answers their getting. This goes on the long list of things that don’t work with an immoral and completely dead GOP.
My question is how was it appropriate in an interview about documents to ask Biden when his son died? Was the knife so dull that he had to go there? Yep, Hur is a sack of hot garbage who witnessed his own career die yesterday. Once again, repeat after me, whatever tffg touches dies.
Hur should be disbarred.
Or at least investigated and dragged in public
Yer getting awfully close to Rick Wilson’s trademark: ETTD
Exactly the same truth…ETTD
Hur, Comer & Jordan aka The Three Stooges aka Trump's Chumps
One question, which one of them is Moe?
Hur's got the hair, ha ha
And he's smarter than the other two.
Judge Cannon, trumps handpicked, paid for judge in Florida is deciding whether to release the witness list to the maga crime organization on the “Stolen Documents Case”. She seems to be unaware of one of Mob Boss trumps m.o.’s, which is to entice the crazies to constantly make death threats. The protection business used to be a mob only activity. Now with trump’s stochastic form of terrorism, thousands of people have had to hire guards for their family’s protection. Donnie Jr. plans to set up a new protection business called “WE KEEP YOU ALIVE” to help out and keep safe his father’s ‘friends’.
She's perfectly aware of what will happen to the witnesses, and she doesn't give a damn. Time to go to the 11th Circuit and get her booted off the case for her brazen and blatant bias.
I agree 100%!! Cannon is WAY out of her league and doesn’t seem to understand that. She’s going to lose her job, and she seems oblivious about it.
She Just wants to acquit Donnie boy at any cost. Can’t wait for Smith to go to the 11th circuit!!
She probably thinks Trump will appoint her to the Supremes. Talk about delusional ....
We already have a half dozen fucknuts on the SCOTUS. Certainly don’t need another…….
I think Loose Canon is obviously getting some help from judges who are smarter than she is. Some of the things she done has walked right up to the line & put her toe right at it, & made decisions that are negative for us, causing delays; & yet not truly enough for Smith to be positive he can get her removed. That crap of her refusing to decide on the Motion to Dismiss, & instead leaving it there for trump to pull out of the hat later; even after the trial has started & arguments made. She isn’t smart enough to figure that out by herself: dismiss it outright now & give Smith cause to remove her or kick it down the road & then dismiss it after trial begins when Smith would have no recourse; case over, Trump goes free & there’s nothing we can do about it!!! Someone is feeding her that shit!!
Time to deport her back to Colombia.
I’m kinda surprised that Jack Smith hasn’t moved on that yet.
Gee, Hur, I would've thought during your upbringing you might've heard these words at SOME point:
- Cheaters never prosper
- Liar, liar, pants on fire
- Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.
Dems: Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.
Repugs: But when we’ve practiced quite a while, how vastly we improve our style.
When facts can be "alternative" there's no truth, so there's no tangled web for them. They can say whatever they want, whatever fits the moment. Because there 's no reasoning, accountability, or hypocrisy for them. And it all leads directly to no rule of law. It's how they operate and it's exactly what drives us nuts. That's how I see it anyway.
Tiffany is SO proud he's able to use "Praetorian Guard".., no doubt he's been beating that special sausage for decades. Wotta putz. And that's the most charitable thing I can say about all this.
Meanwhile, which president was it, again, who tried to replace all the Joint Chiefs with "acting" nominees just before 1/6?
Hell, half of Shitler's cabinet were "acting" which meant they didn't need to have Senate approval for the job.
Ironically, none of his voters and very few of his House Repub colleagues have any idea what he's referring to. 'Praetorian Guard' - Sheesh.
They dumb. So he uses terms like that so they think he smart. But he also dumb. Also, I think he gets a boner when he says it. That’s just science.
You just made me laugh out loud. Channelling Uncle Jeff?
I wish. That boy got talent.
I laughed hard at that one. Isn’t he part of the elite? Keep shooting at your own foot, sir.
I wondered why Hur so often replied with statements like “that word does appear on page 47 of the transcript” when asked to confirm things he supposedly had heard and recorded. Lead me to wonder if perhaps he had a ghost writer.
He was trying to distance himself from the report. He wants us to think those words magically appeared without his participation.😜
Distancing himself from HIS OWN report, lol.
Hur also used those practiced statements when asked specifically to answer "yes" or "no".
That was particularly obnoxious.
Wonder no more. He IS a lawyer. A Republican lawyer.
