Following the money trail will do this Slug in as well as McConnell. Nixon and Watergate had 24 convictions,this one will most likely double that amount.

there is a tape of lyin' Ryan and chinless McConnell discussing how to launder Russian money through the RNC. If so, they are BOTH screwed - royally.

I have confidence that we have stolen the entire government by colluding with a foreign adversary, are totally in control, and won't give it up for any reason. We've yet to accomplish everything we wanted to screw the working class and give all their $ to the uber rich.

Ryan has confidence Trump the traitor can be propped up long enough to sign them.
Paulie once more shows himself to be the sociopathic weasel he is by sacrificing our democracy just as he gleefully celebrated the death and suffering of millions who he robbed of health care to pay his billionaire puppet masters. Little wonder his former parish priest kicked his sorry ass out as he recognized this soulless cretin for the lesser demon he is.

I don't think it's too soon for the DNC to start running generic oppos against him, pointing out what a selfish asshole he is. Even if they run them late at night when ad time is cheap, they'll get the swing shift/graveyard workers, the under-employed, and the people who can't sleep out of simple worry. There's a lotta malaise out there, and someone needs to be blamed for it. Those Trump voting morons need to be carefully taught who their enemy is.

better be paying attention. Your boy has been exposed as a soulless ghoul who has no problem killing Americans so that the wealthy can further benefit.

Of course, those of us here already knew all about the granny starver, but now there's no excuse for Lyin' Ryan's constituents to not realize what a sociopath he is.

Please don't re-elect this tool.

They know that the tax cuts for the wealthy and gutting healthcare coverage for millions is a losing proposition for the rethuglicons, but they are by GAWD going to do it anyway, and tRump is their fall guy. When everything blows all to shit up in their faces in the future, they can blame everything on tRump and pretend that they were just being good soldiers to make his policy agenda items come to pass. They are stalling for as long as they feel they can and hope that the any little thing will distract the citizens of this country away from everything. I don't know what will happen next, but this shitgibbon isn't going to change and it almost appears to me that part of the "stall" technique might just involve revelations that might come out of the Manafort indictments, which may ensnare tRump and the Justice Department will effectively take care of the problem of tRump for them. In other words, maybe they're waiting for the other shoe to drop so to speak.

31. Then again, Ryan would probably give the same answer to all of the following questions:
Thu May 18, 2017, 02:39 AM
May 2017

"Do you believe that women who have abortions are going to hell?"

"Do you believe that the Bill of Rights is negotiable, and subject to modification by Executive Order under a Republican president?"

"Do you support the suppression of any initiative of any Democratic president, no matter how beneficial to the country?"

"Do you support the promotion of any initiative of any Republican president, no matter how destructive to the country"

"Do you believe that anything you do as Speaker is right and justified because God supports and guides your actions?"

"Do you believe there is no conflict with both supporting the death penalty and calling yourself pro-life?"

"Do you believe that cutting taxes on the wealthiest Americans will help the poorest Americans?"

"Do you agree with your colleague from Idaho that no one has ever died from lack of access to health care?"

"Do you believe that the regime of Vladimir Putin is our friend and ally?"

"If Trump resigns or is removed from office, do you see yourself stabbing Pence in the back to get rid of him ASAP?"

"Do you think that you should be president, and probably will be within a year?"

I think Ryan would answer a big enthusiastic "I do!" to all of the above questions even quicker than he did the day he got married.
