    1. Bytor 1001 , the economy says different , or would you prefer the obummer way , barely 1% gdp , China and the rest of the world getting a free pass on ripping America off ?

    1. TDS is real folks. Paige must have gotten advice from her lawyers to keep quiet. Easy to go on tv with Maddow, no tough questions. But the risk of revealing missteps is enormous. At the very least she comes across as an obvious hypocrite. She’s giving opponents plenty of motivation to continue exposing her traitorous behavior.

  1. *Trump was a Criminal BEFORE he was a President…nothing has changed, EXCEPT NOW HE IS A CRIMINAL PRESIDENT! 🙄*

    1. *This woman is trying to play the victim- what a con artist- She needs to be in Jail along with her Fkijng insurance policy. DNC are communists.

    2. No Durham and the IG is showing the true Corruption. Corruption by the demonrats, begining long before there slave trade operation. Just like the IG report surprise lol. You people are a brainless mental disaster !

    1. @bUH sNUH If we are still a “nation of law” then Trump needs to swing for being the Russian Asset that he clearly is….

    2. @David Hollenshead …Good gravy, TDS at its finest. Your conspiracy theories, advanced by Maddow for 3 years, have been disproven by every authoritative body that’s looked into them. Maddow is queen of the echo chamber.

  2. *I imagine any person would have a sore spot regarding a serial adulterer like Trump, chastising you publicly when he himself has done worse and in EVERY relationship he’s ever had.🤷‍♂️*
    *Mr Trump throwing stones in glass houses once again! 🙄*

    1. 2019 45 has been impeached by the HOUSE of representatives VOTE ALL republicans OUT in 2020 VOTE BLUE PUT A END TO THOSE LAWLESS PUPPIES

    2. @Cullen Mills economy, stock market, unemployment,military, veterans support, lowered taxes, help those in prison, are you really that stupid?

    3. @Cullen Mills Are you blind and deaf? The economy for one. Actually his best accomplishment was keeping clinton out of the whitehouse.

  3. Remember what Trump said about our own intelligence community, Trump would believe Putin over our own country, and intell community. One day I would love to see what Putin has on Trump, and one day it will come out.

  4. Has anyone documented just how many people and careers Trump has destroyed so far? I really think Trump is jealous of Page and Struck as I doubt he’s getting anything and can’t even pay for it.

    1. In his life or since he ran for president?
      The first list will be very long and surely not complete due to the NDA’s.
      The second list is doable but someone is added on average once a week.
      Cohen, Sessions, Maria the ambassador, Kelly, Sean Spicer, Lisa Page, Peter Strock, Comey, McCabe, I forgot the names of many people that he replaced in cabinet and/or staff,

    2. His play acting the emails seems odd, like why do that? Is it possible that he never had that kind of affection and is jealous?

  5. It is like having a fire and not allowing the fire brigade to do their job. Just imagine this behaviour of Trump done by somebody else. Now the biggest cheat and fake President has some kind of right to behave as he wishes? Hard to imagine that there are people supporting this. In the meantime Putin is laughing his pants of. Not even Russians are that stupid.

    1. dutchpy dutchpy If you still believe the “Putin’s puppet” propaganda, you’re the stupid one. It’s been debunked numerous times. Read the IG’s report.

  6. Over the years the FBI has been used to suppress movements that today are mainstream. The FBI investigated the Civil Rights leaders and activists. The FBI investigated ordinary citizens during the McCarthy era. The FBI hounded the Black Panthers and murdered their leaders as they slept. There are plenty of incidents that I believe the politics of the time weaponized the FBI against dissident citizens and if you agree or not, that law enforcement agency, the FBI, has a mixed history. Sometimes the agency has been valiant and sometimes the agency was used by unscrupulous politicians to repress. But what Trump is doing to the FBI, but not only the FB,I is a danger to our country.

    Trump has destroyed long and excellent public servants, he has hollowed out the State Department, fired heads of agencies and cabinet members with abandon and appointed unqualified people to key agencies and positions. I am sad for people like Lisa Page and Masha Yovanovich who have had their careers ruined. As much as I disliked and still dislike former Attorney General Sessions, he was humiliated and bullied by an evil man, Trump, and then replaced by a shameful yes man, Barr.

    As I listen to the impeachment speeches and the destruction of our historic democracy I am almost in tears for my country. Steny Hoyer explained the necessity of impeachment eloquently, and he was applauded by Democrats. But all of the Republican speeches were just awful for democracy, for our coming election, for our security from Putin and our nation and all for a cult of Trumpism. We are in danger and this impeachment, as divisive as it is , is all that stands between democracy and constitutional government and despotism. My poor nation is being ripped apart by Trump and his cabal of miscreant Republicans.

    1. @David Hollenshead Well, since I do not believe in capital punishment, perhaps a long stint in prison under maximum security, lest he develop a following in prison too.

    2. Thanks for your comment, Helen. I have ‘wrestled’ with the same issues in the first part of your comment. Recently, I watched the film, Mark Felt, starring Liam Neeson. I don’t know how historically accurate it is, but it gave me insight. I was young enough to watch a Hearing. My Mom had me come home from school for this especially. Based on the film, the Nixon Administration wanted the Bureau to act as its private security force, after the death of then-FBI head J. Edgar Hoover. So an ‘acting head’ was appointed to affect that change. Mr. Felt became ‘Deep Throat’ so the evidence found itself to the general public eventually. If you haven’t watched it, I’d recommend it. The parallels with the current situation are striking. The film also addresses what Mr. Felt went through personally. It is similar to what Ms. Page is going through, if not the entire Bureau. Merry Christmas in the meantime.

    3. @goducks20101 I was as glued to the Nixon impeachment as this one. I am a political junkie and activist and have had long experience with how law enforcement has been abused during demonstrations and on issues, with dissident groups. Used to work at ACLU and have a lot of history I know about. Am old now but I remember McCarthy era and all of the Viet Nam War era and school busing in two different states and MLK assasination in the South and other issues.

    4. The FBI lied to obtain a warretn from the Unconstitutional FISA court. The FBI is as corrupt as ever. It’s amazing how the scripts have flipped and it’s the Left these days that fawns obver the FBI and CIA, when they used to be rightfully skeptical of them. The Right will take down these organizations

  7. The trump rally going on live right now is straight up scary. It looks like a scene from the movie idiocracy except it isn’t funny it’s extremely worrisome.

    1. The movie „Idiocracy“ isn’t that funny anymore since Donald Trump is president; it doesn’t seem that outlandish anymore.

    2. Terrible history is repeating itself 100 years later. So many people died….scary indeed. Keep fascism out, vote blue

    1. @S Ross I think the operative part of the OP was “in the eyes of the world. Baby Trump shows what the UK think of him, and brain dead NATO shows what Macron thinks of him.

  8. Just keep playing the 2016 Lindsey Graham and Mitt Romney videos where they call Trump unfit for office in their own words

  9. I guess we will see what happens when the declass happens and the FISA report comes out!
    Won’t we! WWG1WGA!

  10. I feel that Lisa Page has lost a lot in the last couple of years, but she has kept her integrity. I hope she come out of this as well as she deserves.

  11. *This woman is trying to play the victim- what a con artist- She needs to be in Jail along with her Fkijng insurance policy.
