Nunes seems like he’s in so far beyond his depth as to be comical. And his face shows it. It’s like he’s just waiting for the sweet release of death.

Nunes handed the Dems a crate full of ammunition to use over the next couple of years. Turning down Flynn’s request for immunity would usually just looks like business as usual, with Congress saying “oh screw you, you’re going down, no immunity for you”. However, after all the shady crap Nunes has done, the Dems have the chance to spin this whole thing as Flynn having information that will bring down the White House and the GOP using its majority in both houses to cover it up.
The challenge for the Democrats will be staying united and coordinated enough to take advantage of the clown fiesta they are being handed.

Don’t worry, the Chinese have his SF-86. Haha. Ugh.
Man I have watched way too much Law and Order because whenever I hear about Adam Schiff I just think of the district attorney from that show.

… these are their stories. DUN. DUN.
Terrible posture. It’s way too much and early to think it indicates defeat.

Typical Gotcha Journalism.
Yeah, can we focus on the real stuff rather than how Trump looks sad?

I enjoy the look of Sad Trump. I hope his face freezes into a permanent frownie face.
Exclusive video of Trump on the white house grounds.
Is that his “We’re gonna win so much, you’re gonna get tired of winning!” face?
If we define “winning” in the context of Charlie Sheen’s usage of the word, i.e. contracting HIV, then yes I think so.
Here’s the timestamped video of the moment.
I like the way Trump makes Pence fetch the papers for him as he leaves.
Pence probably likes his odds of sitting in the big chair sooner rather than later, so he’s grinning and bearing it.

Gay-hating farm boy, fetch my papers!
This is insane… I have seen middle school mock parliament’s run in more adult fashion than this embarrassment!

He had already ended the thing and was leaving as the question was being asked… Not sure why this is anything, beyond delighting in him looking beat down (he might need some more golf soon).
But he didn’t ‘end the thing’, this was for signing an executive order. It was sitting on the desk to our left, waiting. Trump thought he was there to support Pence’s little speech? Did he lose his patience? Had somewhere else to be?
Aftr Pence’s statement, he makes a very patronizing and very very vacuous sentence, and starts to leave as Pence puts out his hand to stop him, but is ignored. Then as he exits the door Pence catches up and they have a confused exchange. The cabinet secretaries there for the photo op are visibly unsure what is happening. Then Pence sheepishly goes back to the desk, grabs the EO, and ushers them all out. Clearly not according to the normal EO signing script, including the lack of, you know, the signing.
