PROGRESSIVE DISCUSSION - THURSDAY 6/8

Good morning! Woke up this morning to sunshine! Yay!!!

So yesterday's hearings were a total waste of time as far as actually giving any information. Hoping today's will be better.

Yesterday I saw a TV ad similar to what would normally be considered a campaign ad touting the JA. What the heck is up with that? Now I hear that an ad smearing Comey is coming out today. So clearly there are people who are truly worried about what is coming and what the consequences will be to their own pocketbooks who are putting out these ads and trying to sway the minds of the American people. The scary thing is that we've learned there are a lot of people out there whose limited minds can be easily swayed to believe whatever narrative they are told. Brainwashing really. These ads are just examples of how far down the wrong path we have gone.

Check back later!

I think the hearing will be interesting, but I think the Republicans will still show how spineless they still are. They could care less what JA said or meant. They will use the scorched Earth approach to try to smear Comey & his reputation ( even if they believe he is telling the truth) ....just so they can "try" & get their agendas passed before 2018. Like Comey or not, I think he does have a truthful story to tell, but I doubt it will make one iota of difference. We will wake up tomorrow & JA will be tweeting how innocent he is in all things, the Republicans will be pushing their ."sick" health care bill thru the senate & life in the swamp will be business as usual. I sure hope in some way, somehow the Democrats have enough will to push thru the garbage & get JA out of office. I hope the Press keeps digging. I'm more than discouraged by all this!

He is my Senator and I agree with this completely. He wasn't the only one focused on Hillary. Republicans say Democrats needs to let "this Russia thing" go - well I say the Republicans need to let that Hillary thing go already. SHE LOST THE ELECTION. MOVE ON NOW. 

My opinion is that the hearing did not give definitive evidence of obstruction of justice. Impeachment proceedings will not be starting any time soon. Was Trump acting shady? Yes, but there will be really nothing that comes of this unfortunately. Personally, I am really sick of all of this. We will probably be stuck with this bottom feeder for three more years. 

So, Comey testifies under oath..Even volunteers info that probably doesn't put him in the best of light but still being totally honest, & this is what JA's peeps will cling to too saying, " see he's a leaker, blah, blah, blah....and JA in Chief's lawyer comes out & calls Comey a liar, without evidence, just because JA says so, & it boils down to a he said, he said ....the Republicans are circling the JA wagon, the press is still getting bashed, the WH won't confirm or deny a tape recording system, or anything else for that matter, & on & on & on....I just feel honesty is getting trampled on by lies & no one cares ..I just can't believe this will be the new norm...Either Comey is lying or the JA in Chief is & my bet is its JA...but even so, nothing will happen because the Republicans are too spineless to do anything, the deplorables don't give a damn one way or another & the Democrats don't have the votes to impeach...YET! ...So, I can totally see being stuck with this JA in the Oval Office for next 3 years...my only hope is Mueller has or finds enough on JA to throw his sorry behind in jail. But how long will that take. UGH!

It's incomprehensible how Republicans can go along with this even when at least the leaders in Washington KNOW they are selling their souls to the devil. And for what?!

I'm no Comey fan. If it were not for him, I really believe Hillary would be sitting in the Oval right this minute. So certainly Comey is not a Democratic pawn. But Republicans refuse to accept the facts. They want to just sweep this all under the rug. So what if Comey leaked the memos deliberately? Is there anyone who did not already believe that was likely true? There is just no understanding what is going on within the Republican party. I am truly baffled by them. Evidently they no longer have any love or loyalty to the country as a whole at all. It is all about the party, and that's all they care about.

I find it interesting that Spicer is no where to be found today on what is probably the most important press day of the administration. Think he is goners for sure. Buh bye Shouty Spice. Can't say I'll miss you at all. Having said that, I really CAN NOT STAND Huckabee. When asked again if there is a recording of the conversation (that would prove Comey the liar they say he is - which he is not) she said she would "check under the couch." Ugh. I hate smug people! YOUR boss brought up the whole "tapes" thing in the first place. This is not from some secret source or fake news. HE ACTUALLY INFERRED THE EXISTENCE OF TAPES HIMSELF! If you want to get pissy with someone get pissy with Trump.

All of these Trump supporters saying, "Why didn't Comey tell the President that what was happening was inappropriate?" Ummmmm, why are you more upset with Comey for not speaking up than you are with the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES doing something inappropriate in the first place?!?! I can not believe these people
