Oh hey, they're even pretending to have shame this time.
Liberals don't have shame. See Matt Lauer Al Franken etc etc. They just apologize and hope things go away.
Conservatives have no shame* either. They refuse to apologize and get reelected anyway. Too many to name.

*Except for the ones who are caught playing with boys. Those slink quietly into the night.

Still no evidence on Roy Moore. Just a yearbook that no one is allowed to inspect but his accuser’s partisan feminist lawyer.

Mueller hires a bunch of Democrat donors, and he's worried about one being openly biased? That doesn't make a lot of sense, but okay, sure. Fire away.

So they really aren't getting the location of Trumps secret villain hideout? Who would of thought a biased liberal reporter would deliberately lie and mislead the public on a federal investigation.

Those damn emails...

https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/12/02/us/russia-mcfarland-flynn-trump-emails.html?_r=0&referer=

Quote:
On Dec. 29, a transition adviser to Mr. Trump, K. T. McFarland, wrote in an email to a colleague that sanctions announced hours before by the Obama administration in retaliation for Russian election meddling were aimed at discrediting Mr. Trump’s victory. The sanctions could also make it much harder for Mr. Trump to ease tensions with Russia, “which has just thrown the U.S.A. election to him,” she wrote in the emails obtained by The Times

They knew. Not only did he know, but they knew they were proactively working for them. It’s in writing.

Mildly interesting, strange wording, and the typical dumpster load of speculation and wishful thinking.

In short, this is not the Drumpf is done that you're looking for.

They don't need proof, it's obvious Trump should be replaced with a more liberal President who will assist in pushing through the liberal ideology.

What’s it like convincing yourselves “there’s no there, there?”

Everytime someone posts an article your reactions have been “oh it’s nothing, don’t get excited” or “they all want liberal only government”. When in reality the information has been frayed threads that are unraveling quite the tapestry; as expected for something of this nature.

For the last year you guys have been full on with the right wing spin in the denying and the downplaying. All the while the truth comes out drip by drip with each drip getting louder and louder.

That being said, your reactions are half the fun.

If either of the two who flipped has any dirt on anyone.
There's no reason to cut a deal with either if they didn't have any info on someone higher up and/or info on a bigger crime. The indictments come off as slaps on the wrists so far. It has to be because of an exchange.

Plea bargains are often ways to avoid trials. Plead guilty to a charge and other charges are dropped.
This doesn't explain why he is still cooperating with the investigation. There's still more to be done.

Trumps still President, Hilary still lost and there has yet to be a single iota of evidence that candidate Trump haa done anything illegal much less impeachable over.

Being a Republican is not a crime regardless of how the liberals want it to be.

We don't even know what they are after anymore. Nothing short of a voice recording if canidate Trump ordering Putin to hack the election would be applicable and even then he wouldn't get impeached. This started as a hail mary in the hopes of finding anything Obama era Washington Democrats could use against the outsider sitting in her majestys chair. Now it's a monster all it's own.

Every time someone posts an article of conjecture with nothing that directly implicates Trump, you guys lose your minds. It's been well over a year and you're not even close, doesn't it get old?

For the last year you guys have been full on with the left wing spin in the baseless speculation and the exaggerating. Each drip gets us closer and closer to indicting the exact same people we knew would be indicted forever ago. There are news articles that literally just reveal the next step in the investigative process and everyone freaks out like it's some kind of surprise revelation (including the idiot journalists).

Team trump has clear evidence for an argument that Mueller’s team is not impartial.

Bonus fact. This guy was also on the team investigating Hillary’s Emails so they've got and argument to dive back into that too.

I would suggest you read Flynn’s statement regarding his plea. They do not let you make that kind of statement if you’re about to legitimize some kind of grand conspiracy.

Sorry to be a Debbie Downer.
