Too bad that doesn't matter. The House Intelligence Committee is comprised of Republicans and Democrats. The majority party has more members. Elections have consequences, right Obama? The Committee voted and the result of the vote is their official findings and verdict.

The dims would be happy to continue to waste hundreds of thousands more of our tax dollars to sniff TRUMP's every fart until one smells a little different than the others.

Game over. Move on to your next strategy.

The Dems on the committee didn't even know this afternoon that there weren't going to be any more witnesses much less participate in any committee conclusions. Congressional committees investigating foreign attacks on the U.S. (9/11 Commission, Congressional committees reviewing Pearl Harbor, etc.), didn't formulate partisan reports dismissing the very nature of the attacks as this report did, refusing to even acknowledge Russian interference (even Trump himself did better!).

It's a farce and a disgrace.

If the minority on the committee doesn’t agree, they should issue a memo.......

In the court of what?

Because in actual Court, the charges and verdict will be from Mueller's investigation, not this one.

You know, Mueller's investigation...where they actually subpoena witnesses and ask for documents to review...

How much do you know about the United States House of Representatives.

That's a pretty good characterization of the body in general. Manage your expectations when they're actually asked to do something difficult.

Watching you desperately hope while Mueller gives you blue balls is going to be so worth it

Wrong. Mueller will pass his findings on to Congress. The House will do nothing with them.

Why would I listen to her. I don't follow the musings of random congresspersons. Only you guys do that. He'll it's all I can do to stay engaged with my own congressman and senators.

If that's on your calendar I'm going to politely suggest that you consider getting a hobby.

Dams have plenty of "say", thanks to the MSM. What they don't have, is evidence; at least evidence that don't incriminate THEM.

Always good advice.

Still, I can't think of anything this brazen that these Congress critters have done in a national security investigation. These guys are going all in. I imagine they're reading polls at least as harsh as those that are publicly available and are throwing a hail mary.

Mine are Cornyn and Cruz, so they get their mugs on TV all the time. My congressman, though, is a little known doctor named Michael Burgess who chairs the Congressional Health Care Caucus. Don't hear a lot from him.

Schiff had his say, but he was creeping everyone else out.

Every meeting was like...

C'mon, now. Wouldn't you prefer Linsey to ol' Michael as your Congressperson?

Nope. Dems are the only ones that vote based on looks and skin color.
