    1. Kevin Morrison let me put this straight; you said you did not watch the hearing thus you don’t know all the facts nor the context yet, you dare to correct someone and call them moron in your original comment. wow just wow…

    2. @Kevin Morrison I don’t care if Congress is a court or not. Congress can hold a witness in contempt and that’s all I’m interested in. “Following the refusal of a witness to produce documents or to testify, the Committee is entitled to report a resolution of contempt to its parent chamber. A Committee may also cite a person for contempt but not immediately report the resolution to the floor.”

    3. @88Gibson LesPaul LOL, “parent chamber”… and there in proves how ignorant you are about any of this! Do yourself a favor and stop communicating. You are proving how dumb you are and making others that read this dumb in the process!

    1. @Kevin Morrison yes I agree Republicans are the biggest hypocrites on earth well maybe just short of Putin. Vote blue 2020 restore Americas standing in the world

    2. @Martijn Zandkamp …hey Martijn, don’t yell and btw if you’re dutch, write something on Baudet or Wilders iso backing lewandowski

  1. Two takeaways: 1). Lewandowski is so far up Trump’s a$$ that he can’t see daylight. 2). The Republicans on the committee are right beside him.

  2. Honoring a request from the White House that is in fact executive privilege but he doesn’t qualify for said privilege. Lock him up.

    1. @James Fehr we could start with Obstruction of Justice. Or lieing to Congress while after swearing to tell the truth.

    1. Lewandowski is a patriot and what he said was refreshing to hear. Enough with the baseless hearings and false narratives. Its time to focus on people like Comey, Clapper, Brennan, Strzok, Page, Lynch, obama and Clinton

  3. Lewandowski behaviour confirms in my mind that the Muller report was spot on! There is no need to avoid answering questions (under oath at that) unless your trying to hide the truth!😤

    1. What about that part of the Mueller report that said no collusion, or that part of his testimony where he says his investigation was never impeded in any way? Were those spot on also? Or only the parts you agree with?

  4. Why doesn’t the house use the SGT of Arms to arrest these obstructionist until they cooperate. Or fine them – obstruction is a crime!

    1. @rutabagasteu accept they are actually empowered by the law to do just that. Just because they haven’t had to do anything in a long time doesn’t mean they don’t have the legal authority.

    1. Can anyone say Trump derangement syndrome. It’s going to be hilarious watching you guys have another Melt down when Trump wins again.

  5. Let say this. If he is not going to answer any questions why show up? I would have slapped him so hard his memory will be in checked.

    1. He showed up to impress Trump, to show Trump that he could be a big man stand up to Congress. The Democrats in Congress are amiss to not have charged him with contempt and have heavily fined him.

  6. It is laughable how Corey is running to be a congressman. I bet you Corey solgan will be ‘Vote for Lewandowski and he will stay loyal to Trump.

  7. Republicons are criminal to the core. Traitors to our nation. All they can do is obstruct justice because they know answering will reveal all of their lies and crimes.

    1. Very true. Remember when Republicans forced a health care law and said people could keep their doctors? Oh wait that was a democrat.

    2. Democrats are just as bad. Don’t be a hypocrite. Lewandowski was never the subject of an IG report like Comey and McCabe.

  8. Lewandowski is deranged in even entertaining the thought that New Hampshire would give him a Senate 💺. He should be locked up 🔐.

    1. Lewandowski will never get his wish of becoming a US Senator representing NH or any other State. He has once again shown what a liar he is just like his criminal con man boss! The House is considering a contempt of court citation for that lying arrogant fool because he knowing lied under oath and they won’t forget that. He’ll get his soon enough! Cell block 51.

  9. I used to vote Repulicans. However after seeing the criminal actions of the GOP Party today I will not make that mistake again. Wonder why the Republicans are all afraid of trump. Does the truth scare them that much?

    1. @Bobby I can tell you are a trump bot because of your use of swear words. Most likely Russian. Yes I did vote for trump but I won’t make that mistake again. Putin & trump. Make Russia Strong Again!
