  1. The ๐Ÿ‘ถ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿ’ฉ has never settled for anything but absolute authority in any position he’s been in. He won’t stop until he turns America into a dictatorship. Impeach him and toss him in prison for his crimes!

    1. Pelosi is playing chess not checkers!! She knows the senate Republicans will not support impeachment, no matter the damage to our constitutional norms. Since impeachment can’t get done, the house won’t ratify it, thus preventing any chance of double jeopardy, when Trump is out of office!! The lottery card is ready to scratch and win. If you want to see this scum pay. Vote him out and “Lock HIM up!!!

    2. Dan Cogswell You statement is absolutely true and frightening. He has been given too much benefit of the doubt and should have been removed when our government had the intelligence information about Russia.

    3. I would love to strip him and dump him on top of a land fill. That would give him a little bit of perspective about his place in the universe.

    4. @Alex Anderson We all know that the republican controlled Senate will vote against trumps impeachment – thanks to the spineless and traitorous republicans. Nevertheless, Congress has to send a strong signal to the Nation that it is willing to hold this corrupt president accountable for all his misdeeds. Such signal will also help to remind voters to sack this corrupt fake president in 2020.

    1. I brought a Great Character to Audition for the 1st Season (before it even had a Title, ABC Loved his “Biz Solutions”, but the network couldn’t cast anyone with “Felony Record” for the Show. ironic?

    1. @Burn Notice We’ve heard of the failed back channel attempts. Must be others working huh? Intelligence has been gutted. Coincidence?

    2. Trump is an American embarrassment. They will cheat him into the White House again. If they plan to utilize minority voter suppression there will be a major problem, possibly even a conflict. Moscow Mitch is making sure that Putin can cheat us again, traitors should be lynched! The next year is going to be ugly!

    1. @Tessa Rossa What’s ‘ironic’ about what I said…??? I’m comparing the Trump administration to the Politburo. That’s not irony.
      Buy a dictionary & get back to me when you’ve learnt some new words.

  2. Does anyone else think that Ratty Cliff sounds a lot like another whiny, white privileged Trump appointee: “I Like Beer” Brett Kavanaugh?

    1. Yes, you are right, I give this puppet appointed under TRAMP ADMINISTRATION about 3 months then he’ll get that famous line TRAMP loves so much in saying to people. YOUR FIRED!! IM GOING TO LOVE IT WHEN THEY TELL TRUMP HE’S FIRED. THE LOOK ON HIS MUG WOULD BE PRICELESS.

    2. @Alicia no * They better kiss Trump’s a– until it’s shiny like a mirror! Or else they will experience an extremely, embarrassing, public termination.

    1. @Sneeze Saw : ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง I heard a Congressman saying he was unlikely to be approved so I assume He Needs Approval. Unless of course Trump makes him Acting.

    2. Andy Zeno
      Stop listening to totally negative people!
      ๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽˆ

    1. SRY, RUDE DUDE, you are at the top of the heap, so my outrageous red-pill screed must be up here. Nothing personal!

    1. Especially that fat incompetent pig Hermann Goering. He played right into the hands of the RAF in 1940 and then the Luftwaffe got ripped to shreds come 1944.

  3. Holy crap! Are you kidding me? He’s not qualified! He’s not credible! He’s a partison hack who should not be making decisions about the security of this nation. This is a DISASTER!

    1. @zevi kramer Let us all hope so …….. Trump could rule almost completely unchecked if that would be the case . All would lay in the hands of the Supreme Court for any kind of checks on the Prez .

  4. Republicans no longer feel the need to remain loyal to our country! donnie and Moscow Mitch are removing sanctions from russia. Not imposing them!

    1. @Speak only facts Horowitz said maybe late September. It was already supposed to have been dropped but as he gets closer to the truth more and more people have been coming forward to sell each other out and avoid prosecution. The truth isn’t somewhere in the middle though. Knowing the truth would mean indictment for a lot of high profile democrats including Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Jim Comey, John Brennan, Loretta Lynch, James Clapper and many more. This Spygate scandal is going to come out as the biggest political scandal EVER. Watergate was a traffic ticket compared to the political weaponization of the FBI, CIA and who knows how many other intelligence agencies.

    2. @Mahande The Dems got away with weaponizing of the IRS, FBI and ATF back in 2014/2015. Hard drives galore failed back then if I recall? Bleach Bit used? I’ll keep my eyes and ears open for sure. Deep state stuff? I never say never now. Open to the possibilities right now.

  5. That guys is irrelevant to the position as we many know Trump gets INTEL from Fox News ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

  6. The Trump White House is one of his Reality TV Shows………. only now they’re working without a script.

    1. @Abolish the liberals america love it or leave it If Trump is kept in place you will soon not recognize the US and would have to watch every word and step you take .

  7. Mr Radcliffe embarrassed himself in the hearing and has shown himself to be as big a nutcase as the Pres.
    I have no confidence in his ability to be honest or honorable. SHAMEFUL BEHAVIOR

    1. Actually he made a fine point that a prosecutor either chooses to indict or not, there is no exoneration. Also, because there was no indictment, Volume 2 of the Mueller Dossier is just a plethora of unverified slander to which Trump does not get his day in court to rebuff. Sounds like Mr Radcliffe knows the law and how to properly apply it.

  8. Incompetence rules. Life is getting more dangerous by the day. Getting job titles without any background, that is Trump team.

  9. Reveled.. finally we know how the 3rd Reich was born, who ever said history doesn’t repeat itself…

  10. “He doesn’t have the background”? OMG really? Kinda like his boss…Liar and Moron in Chief.

  11. How is he appointing these people without them being vetted??????? This is crazyland and it must STOP get out and VOTE AMERICA 2020!!!!!!

    1. @Derek Mitchell True. Still, Ratcliffe must make it through the Senate Judiciary Committee. Amidst the Repubs’ laudatory pingpong whiffs, the SJC Dems – esp. Durbin, Whitehouse, Klobuchar, Booker, Hirono, and – aiiiiii! – Miz Kamala – will wipe the time-honored floor with generous helpings of grilled physiog-du-Ratcliffe (after which Marsha Blackburn will dab on her special blend of Tennessee-fried Trump’s Chihuahua).

    2. @JALAYNE ATKINS maybe in your country the intelligence community has the power to squash anyone under it’s thumb and you think it’s great but I don’t think that’s such a good idea myself.

    3. That is why so many in the cabinet are ” acting ” , no need to go through the vetting process .

    4. @Derek Mitchell Uhhmmm… but what if the unfit guy throws everyone else under the bus instead? I mean, more or less like – now…
      Surely it must be a concern that the president, if he hadn’t been president, would be unlikely to even get security clearance to be the White House janitor?
