      Not the "rot". It is called "The Taint" ! 😋 I remember growing up reading my sisters Enquirer in 70's he was always in them for one reason or another but mostly due to racist housing practices. He's from Queens N.Y., grew up rich, spoiled and white ! Others like him would be the only people he would understand, admire or have empathy toward. He doesnt see himself in those who aren't at least one or all of those because he thinks he's above those who are not. Therefore what he wants is all that matters and the little people are only needed to ensure that he has it. He wanted America and they sought to give it to him.

    As a veteran, I legitimately cry in absolute shame every time I see Flynn plead the fifth; it's conduct most unbecoming of an officer of the United States Armed Forces. He lacks any sort of integrity, and his inability to support the peaceful transition of power is the most damning thing about his character. He is a discredit to our Department of Defense, to our commissioned leadership, and the very fabric of military culture.
    May God have mercy on his soul because I will not if I ever meet him.

      Wow...you honestly think she was honest, telling the truth? She lied about damn near everything.People that could validate what she said, DID NOT DO SO.Including the Secret Service agents who claim Trump never touched the steering wheel or attacked an agent.
      What is true is that the FBI under Comey and with H. Clinton's financing framed President Trump. There never was any Russian Collusion. None. That's a fact. It is also a fact that conspiring to frame a president is TREASON. Literally 2 dozen,at least,guilty of TREASON....including Obama.All the facts and how the media fueled Adam Shiffs daily spew of guaranteed proof of Trump's Russian collusion....and after promising to provide it during Trumps impeachment trials....and never doing so....because it was all a LIE....
      That Trump was impeached over Russian collusion 2 times and during both of those show trials,Christopher Wray, Comey's replacement at the FBI....had physical proof that there NEVER was any collusion and his evidence he possessed would prove just that....but he sat quietly while an innocent President Trump was impeached 2 times...
      Here's the deal dude...you spew the daily garbage from whoever BUT YOU DON'T actually know what's true and what's Shiff. There are around 30 million patriots that are not interested in informing you,like I just did. What I WROTE,YOU WILL DENY AS FACT. It's fact but you ain't interested in facts. That's why 30 million of us want to take it to the streets. Then you can come out and back up your TRUTH that you don't know if it isor isn't while we stand ready to get at it because we know damn well what facts are already listed in indictments with several dozen subversive POS's names on them. There are no more rules. Your side determined to makeshit up along the way.This pathetic trial is a last ditch effort from those guilty of framing Trump,to basically save themselves from charges of TREASON and execution upon conviction. But dig this, the same people that have told you about Russian collusion for the last 3+ years, are not going to tell you they werewrong or that they knew Adam Shiff was lying. That Pelosi and Schumer and Clinton and Obama all knew it was a huge lie....because they were responsible for creating the fucking lie.

Evidence after evidence points out completely un-American and treasonous behavior and yet these cult members shrug their shoulders and say, 'But what about Hunter Biden's laptop?' The hypocrisy is so gross and Trump has lowered the bar so low that Republicans don't even realize they have become what they used to rail against. Meanwhile, these people still believe that THEY are the 'true patriots'. Right or wrong doesn't matter anymore to them. It is all about 'our way is right and winning is most important'.

      While this is true, let's not pretend that all of these people now speaking out are "Patriots".

It's taken force of law and the threat of subpoenas to get these people to suddenly discover their patriotism.

      Has anybody ever taken shallow attention whoring and sociopathic narcissism to a bigger extreme?

      Why was anybody surprised about what happened in January 2021?

"The Fifth" - it should be played on very loud speakers at every GOP rally to remind them of the worst President the US has ever had and his attempted coup and the removal of democracy from the US.

    I'm not sure in the initial interviews Ms Hutchinson that she was fully aware of the impact that testifying will have on her life. In front of the committee, she certainly seemed to be. Composed and slightly terrified. She's going to be under Lewinsky levels of scrutiny for a very long time, and no doubt completely without work in the political arena for the foreseeable. I sincerely hope she has both protection and good people around her.
