Ah crap, had to go to a meeting and missed this!

Oh Turner, this will not go well for you.

Basically. That Trump started talking about other things means the thing he just talked about didn’t count.

“Look no one knows what reality is.”

Turner’s position.

Jordan is also there because nobody else wants to be the GOP name attached to this fiasco. Nunes has no choice as ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee, and even if he did he’s too stupid to realize how damaging this is going to be to him politically. Jordan doesn’t realize it either, but the GOP likely figures he’s an acceptable loss since his district is so gerrymandered that it will elect a Republican no matter who they put up, and there’s probably a line of candidates just as repugnant waiting to replace him.

The GOP is not stupid, they know whomever is the Republican face of these hearings is going to look foolish trying to defend an obviously indefensible position, so Nunes and Jordan, both probably about as safe as any Republican can get in terms of re-election, and both already pegged as being pretty out there even for Republicans, are good safe bets. They are in turn doing their part by living up to expectations. The rest of the GOP House and Senate can sit back safely and wait for their respective impeachment votes, to which they will undoubtedly vote NO, then explain their vote with “Mistakes were made, and rogue diplomacy happened and will be dealt with, but was it all an impeachable offense in the end? I thought Democrats failed to make that case.”

And he didn’t even ask a question.

Of course not, they’d have answered.

Nice, showing sympathy for Stefanik. Hill is a total class act. It will be fun to watch Stefanik try to smear her now.

Of course it appears they are scared of her so Stefanik will probably just rant during her time and ask no questions like Turner.

Schiff: “Oh by the by Ratcliffe is full of shit and lying.”

Wenstrup not going to ask a question.

“I accept our system, but not the part of the system where a corrupt president can be impeached.”

Also one dude said something on Twitter once, so this proves it’s all fake.

I’m not sure if any of them are going to ask questions at this point. To their credit it does show they can learn.

Hill is not having this shit.

I’m smiling.

I want to marry her.

Stewart outright admitting he has no questions and will just rant.

Finally some honesty.
