Republicans warn Democrats not to go on an "investigation" binge...

[kentuck]

Even many Democrats are wary of Democrats spending too much time "investigating" and not enough time legislating.

Donald Trump warned the Democrats that he had the Senate and that he would investigate them also - and he could win the "war" if Democrats started investigating everything.

Republicans are terrified that the Democrats will investigate "everything". They failed miserably to provide any oversight to the Trump Administration and are fearful that their gravy train is about to end and they are about to be discovered.

Democrats should not be intimidated by these vacuous threats from the Republicans. The American people want oversight and that is their job. Unlike the Republicans, they should do their job.

Furthermore, if Mueller does not finish his investigation thoroughly, Democrats should ask for a bi-partisan Commission to continue investigating until the entire truth is known about this criminal cabal in the White House. No stone should be left unturned.

1. Like, Benghazi?

Let's see them testify for 11 hours. Or do they have low stamina?

[NewJeffCT]

13. imagine Donny Dollhands

on the stand for 11 hours. I think he wouldn't last 11 minutes before melting down completely.

[PatSeg]

26. I'd pay to see that!

[NewJeffCT]

36. I keep picturing that scene like A Few Good Men

where Donald Trump is on the stand instead of the far cooler Jack Nicholson.

Mueller - "I want the truth"

Trump - "You can't handle the truth!!...Mueller, we live in a world that has walls, bigly walls, and those walls have to be guarded by me, and me alone. You’re not gonna do it. Pelosi’s not gonna do it. (sneers) John McCain or Chuck Schumer? I have a bigger responsibility than anybody in history. You weep for Democracy and you curse Trump. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know, that Democracy’s death, while tragic, saved lives. And my existence saves lives. You don’t want the truth because deep down you want me on that wall, you want me in that White House, you need me as your King for Life. I demand honor and loyalty to Donald Trump and you make that a punchline. I don’t have the time to explain myself to a man who rises under the blanket of MAGA and then questions how I provide it. I would rather you just say “thank you President Trump for Making America Great Again” and pledged your loyalty to me. Otherwise, I suggest you stop this Witch Hunt and pledge your loyalty to Trump. Either way, I don’t give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Mueller - "Did you order the Russian interference?"

Trump - "you're goddamn right I did!!"

[PatSeg]

39. Oh my

That is perfect! Yes, it would probably be something like that, super hyperbolic, only with smaller words and more redundancy!

This needs its own thread.

[NewJeffCT]

40. Thanks

I'll try to re-work it later today and maybe start it's own thread

[PatSeg]

41. You're welcome

It was really very clever.

[NurseJackie]

2. One word: Benghazi.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

4. +1

Love your signature w/gif

[BumRushDaShow]

8. More than that

1.) Benghazi
2.) Emails
3.) Fast and Furious

[Proud Liberal Dem]

3. Everybody warns Democrats not to go stir crazy on investigations

Don't hear much the opposite direction. Wonder why?

[Autumn]

5. I feel like a Democratic majority and investigation binge. Like Netfix and chill.

Only way better

[onecaliberal]

6. Fuck the republicans and what they are "warning".

[In It to Win It]

7. Like the emails?

[malaise]

9. Bwaaaaaaah

[GoCubsGo]

10. Are you assholes afraid of what they'll uncover?

Yes. Yes, you are. Go fuck yourselves.

[JHan]

11. Hahahahahahahahahaahahaha

[spanone]

12. How rich.

[Delmette2.0]

28. Perfect! I downloaded that for future use.

[spanone]

38. 👍🏼

[MineralMan]

14. "Yeah," they say. "Don't do as we have done."

"Look at that whole Benghazi thing. That worked out really badly for us. Be smart. Don't investigate."

[Purrfessor]

15. Two words: Fuck 'em!

[wiggs]

16. As always, dems have to do the people's work, the heavy lifting of governing. This is

not political...it's what congress is supposed to do. Easy case to make...and gop protests should just be an opportunity for dems to talk about misdeeds and corruption

[duforsure]

17. After Bengazi

They have no excuses.

[albacore]

18. I read 85 investigations... and a "subpoena cannon"...like a t-shirt cannon.... sounds good to me.

[liberalmuse]

19. Well then, they'd better stop their crime spree.

Of course Democrats are going to do their job and investigate. Republican bullying has become laughable given their own record of reopening countless investigations against Hillary Clinton while ignoring Trump’s significantly worse offenses. The young people now starting to vote and filter into Congress aren’t falling for their shit.

[spanone]

20. NOT only republicans...the msm is also playing this game

republicans were talking investigating Hillary AFTER the 2016 elections...

[OnDoutside]

21. Benghazi, with actual evidence.

[BSdetect]

22. The Benghazi Binge set the bar real low. Thanks gop traitors.

[bdamomma]

23. Those traitors

are totally guilty of the wrath they have brought to the American people, they have forgotten who they work for.

McConnell and the rest should be worried it will come out in the end.

[FreepFryer]

24. Benghazi. (n/t)

[sarcasmo]

25. Swalwell said the Helsinki interpreter will be called in.

[themaguffin]

27. How many fucks should we give?

[ananda]

29. Oh reely

Uh huh

So yeah we're gonna stop just cuz you tell us to...

Wrong.

Schiff and co. are at the ready, so you get ready
to pay the price!

[C_U_L8R]

30. Republicans say ignore the law?

That's not news.

[MoonRiver]

31. Awww, Repukes haz a sad about being caught in their criminality.

[NoMoreRepugs]

32. Let's see how quickly the press jumps on the

Democrats need to legislate more and investigate less wagon that the Repukes will be screaming about from day one of the new Congress.

[Downtown Hound]

33. One thing I've learned in my 42 years on Earth:

When Republicans tell you to do something, do the opposite.

[Guilded Lilly]

34. Take your warning and shove it where your soul doesn't shine. n/t

[Wounded Bear]

35. Funny how 'elections have consequences' only when R's win...

[still_one]

37. Or what, you will block President Obama's Supreme Court nominee?

TWO WORDS:

FU (republicans)
