    1. @SK name one…just one…what? One moral, informed, well-read AND honest Republican in Congress who will stand up do the right thing and tell the truth? Omg You’re right, I cant even name one!

    1. Goes for the throat when the throat is talkin smack. Nice to see an American with Irish blood doing the right thing…been too many like Mulvaney who should have their surnames revoked.

    2. @Ephesians 6:12 “product of the modern American school system”
      you should vote to further de-fund that system. bc … reasons.

    3. @efs 1066
      Everything is genetics my friend. In fact, the best part of you ran down your momma’s leg. Right after I gave a fiver. Ahh…you gotta admit: the free market is awesome. Capitalism at it’s best.

    1. @walter weddle I saw your post about, Trump and Barr, shortly after I ate dinner. I will be forwarding you the emergency room bill.

    1. As long as Sondland decided to tell the truth, he can be as smug as he wants. Plus who wouldn’t smirk listening to Shouty Jim Jordan? I loved Sondland bursting into laughter when Jordan asked him who went to the meeting that never happened. 😂

    2. Sondland look smug in beginning like he was having. We’ll see during sentencing how much fun he has. Because trump is going to be the last one trowing everyone under the bus. Wouldn’t want to be guiliani or Mulvaney,Pompeo

  1. Does the Secret Service know that there was an escaped inmate from an insane asylum on the White House lawn today screaming at reporters?😂

  2. Call it Quid Pro Quo But it’s also Called Bribery and Extortion, So stop trying too sugar coat it ! 😖

    1. @ma,ma gee’s gospel I’m not trying to bait you, I really am curious why it’s ok for Joe Biden to extort and bribe the Ukraine for financial gain, but it’s a treasonous high crime with Trump. I don’t mind putting the president on trial but double standards make me sick. I honestly wonder why Biden’s admitted videotaped extortion since we’re calling it that, isn’t even investigated…he openly bragged about it. Isn’t that also bribery and quid pro quo (basic mafia arm twisting)???

    2. @Matt McDonald YOU KNOW D*M WELL THAT’S NOT THE SAME THING, EVERYTIME YOUR CRIMINALLY, INSANE PRESIDENT BREAKS THE LAW, AND PEOPLE TRY TO HOLD, HIM ACCOUNTABLE, YOU GUYS START TRYING TOO MAKE UP, SOME BULL SH*T ON SOME ONE ELSE, TO DEFLECT IT OFF TRUMP, AND IT’S NOT GOING TO, WORK THIS TIME, WHY CAN’T YA’LL GET TRUMP, TO STOP COMMITTING CRIMES D*M, FAST AS THEY GET HIM OUT, OF ONE CRIME HE’S IN ANOTHER, HE’S NOTHING MORE, THAN A CAREER CRIMINAL, AND IF YOU HAVEN’T NOTICED, BIDEN IS NOT PRESIDENT, NEITHER IS HIS SON, YA’LL NEED TO WORRY ABOUT TRUMP’S, KIDS AND SON IN LAW, MAKING ALL KINDS OF ILLEGAL DEALS, WITH FOREIGN LEADERS, SO YA’LL NEED TO WORRY, ABOUT THAT ! 🤔👍🏻

    1. generationofswine couldn’t be more explicit nicely, written and as you said not many actually know because most of his followers and those that voted for him only Think and Believe that they know…cherry picking bits and pieces rather than reading and get the full package of what you have nicely expressed. Thanks for that spot on…

    2. Crabby Appleseed And by the sound of it he is not American so maybe that is the answer, not being influenced by the medias and actually for the same reason know more about what history is made of, educational wise he is right the US have to broaden views and understanding the why’s and the how’s as they are more to it than just “we” as it should be about “we all” !

  3. whao….Hands down Maloney is savage.. Don’t try getting sassy or lying to him.. he will rip your 5 new ones..Bravo!!

    1. As focused as Speaker Pelosi, Mr Nadler, Mr Schiff and the late Mr Cummings. The are doing their jobs! Not only the seniors.. Everyone.. The House of Cards is crumbling and tumbling downnnn.

    2. Left to him, Trump and Gulianni would still being committing International crime. He needs to ask questions THAT’S HIS JOB. His opinion and statements about Gordon hold NO value at this IMPEACHMENT HEARING. FACTS!

    3. @CeCe Crow Pelosi is a weak link.. she is doing all she can to delay this oaf being impeached focused on her donors… if it was up to her it would never happen..

    1. Not really, he was coached to leave out solid confirmations after he said everyone was in the loop. He deflected, answered that he had no opinions. Probably the White House lawyers.

    1. jacq danieles That turned out to be false. You obviously didn’t watch all of his testimony and CNN certainly isn’t going to tell you the truth.

    1. David Devin I know many that donate their time and money to the sick, hungry, and those in jail. I have two friends who spend their weekends doing jail ministries. Maybe you need to meet some better people.

    2. Every person I’ve ever known who made sure I knew right off the bat that they were a ‘good Christian’ was a hypocrite.

    3. Doak 1948 christmas is a pagan holiday Jesus never instructed his followers to celebrate it… Jesus wasn’t even born in december.

    4. b spoon I know. Some say probably in April. We have really screwed up the way we celebrate His birth but much is done for the poor and hungry then too so it’s not all bad. I like Thanksgiving and Easter better.

    1. Jim Alley we only watched the hearings and it is clear: Trump is corrupt and the people around him are scoundrels looking out for themselves.
      America is brought to its knees by Putin and his greedy marionettes. What kind of patriot are you?
      Long live our true America! Down with the criminals that do not respect the Rule of Law and the Constitution.

    2. he did, however, Sondland really fell into his hand there. I really think that what went down with Maloney and Sondland was kind of by chance. I think Maloney would say the same thing. Sondland was being really smug, and feeling a bit too comfortable after being given the soft had of the GOP. I’m glad that Maloney gave him a two piece and a biscuit right there.

  4. We don’t see enough of Maloney, every time he speaks he is right on the money and tells it like it is. He is a top gun.

    1. qoddoss matin He is I think. He and his husband Randy Florke have been married for over 10 years. He worked very closely with Bill Clinton.

    2. He should run for president!!!!!!!!!!!! We Love Maloney👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💞🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

  5. Maloney is a great Dem. to be proud of, honest,to the point, tough. Between him and Shift, they are not letting these guys off the hook.

  6. Let’s NOT forget Rick Perry who’s been lining his pockets and those of his friends in Texas w the oil scandal in UKRAINE.
