That’s interesting. I think people will start going into survival mode.

I would guess that it’s pile on time - and it’s Comey and Rosenstein that taking the big hits.

there was another source giving information directly to the FBI, which we found the source to be pretty explosive," said Rep. Jim Jordan

An old joke, slightly modified:

So the bigassed karma bear is chasing a bunch of guys, they're all panicking wondering who's gettin' the first orange jumpsuit, and the one hollers back to the rest  I only gotta squeal faster than y'all

“That’s interesting. I think people will start going into survival mode.”

Not if the Dems take the house. All house subpoena’s will be dismissed. And we would be relying on a feckless DOJ and FBI to investigate themselves.

A sigh of relief and back to the important business of taking down the president.

When Kavanaugh is confirmed, look for the final chapter to kick in. Comey, Rosenstein, Mueller, et al., are goin’ down. Clinton and possibly Obama to follow. (Probably wishful thinking on my part.)

That’s how Watergate unraveled. Squeeze the junior players first. Baker is in a position to do a lot of damage to the conspiracy if he’s talking to a grand jury.

That’s nice to hear, but as we know, having a political bias isn’t illegal (else we’d all have been gone during the Obamanation)...

Let’s hope there is associated wrongdoing that leads to actual criminal charges not just re-education seminars about how to not be biased.

I fear you are correct, ModelBreaker. It goes to show why the folks need to keep going to the Ballot Box, no matter what happens to Judge Kavanaugh. No matter what happens anywhere else in the world, or even here at home on our own soil, the voters need to keep going to the Ballot Box....

Forget wishful thinking; pray for justice. And pray Psalm 40 FRiends for the Kavanaugh family at their request. They’ve been through hell and back and subjected to nothing but pure evil.

This new source declared “explosive” sounds like game, set and match. I knew Baker would have the goods and wouldn’t go down solo.

Until people actually start going to jail, I’m not going to respect any outcome. At some point in time the folks who made up their own rules should be jailed. Manafort cooked his own goose because he was breaking laws. That Meuller was going after him over and over again, using this current Special Counsel is disgusting, yes. Doesn’t clear Manafort, though, of the laws he broke. I simply want the FBI, DOJ and any one else connected to the Russiagate garbage jailed. A lady can dream, right?
