This was a farce. I’m not surprised, just doing a slow burn as it sinks in that this drama/sham continues. The idea that this is the end has just been shattered into a thousand pieces. And each piece will shatter more as the comments about this conjob get sliced and diced. tRump says Game Over. Far from it, tRump. You haven’t seen the half of it. You just think the past two years have been hard. They are about to get a whole lot harder as the report is released.

I kept my eyes on a Rosenstein during this dog and pony show. Eyes wide, staring forward, almost unblinking. He knows. What a shitty way to conclude your 30 year career. I hope he suffers with intractable insomnia from now on. I just want to know what he got out of it for his part. What is selling out your country worth??

Finally, WHERE was Mueller??? We’re waiting.
