"If Fascism ever comes to America it will come in the name of Liberalism ": Ronald Reagan

[@chriskelly1890]

Fascism is coming in the form of Trump. He's campaigning on it.

[@SirMegaManNeoX]

He would know. 😂

[@war1980]

@@SirMegaManNeoX Yeah, he did know that liberalism is terrible. That's why he opposed it.

[@alexanderwhite298]

​@@war1980 he opposed liberalism because he was fascist. If you want evidence just look up what policies he was for and what policies he inacted, and who backed him in the financial sector.

[@-Luna-tic.exe-]

​@@alexanderwhite298 Fascism is a far-right form of government in which most of the country's power is held by one ruler or a small. group, under a single party. Fascist governments are usually totalitarian and authoritarian one-party states. Replace right with left and we have current "liberalism"

[@Rebecca-nx5ec]

Oh how America has fallen! Disgraceful and shameful

[@Opinionsrnotfacts574]

Manafort, Flynn, Bannon, Stone, Cohen, Rudy, Navarro - these men are America's disgrace and shame. All in jail or pardoned and all part of the Trump crime syndicate.

The hierarchy isn't done yet. They have even lower lows planned, coming from the highest offices.

[@JackTheSkunk]

The truth is the truth and you spoke it. 👍

[@lisbethgiverhaug9513]

So has most of the european countries. I can not recall any time in history that free speech/democracy has been attacken from all angles. If the media (msm) have done their duty, we would not be in this situation. Lisbeth

[@edda682]

@@lisbethgiverhaug9513 Correct.

[@Lacey_Face]

Bragg, the prosecutors and Judge all need to go to prison for their corruption.

[@duelde-consulting6403]

Yes! Lawfare targets regular people for whatever they want. Usually to steal property or wealth. Even if the law didn't specifically do it, they allowed it to be done.

[@SwornReaper]

What is up with all empty chairs???? Aren't they supposed to be there to work for the tax payers????

[@opforwarrior]

They schedule multiple events to ensure non-attendance

[@nullentry6032]

only votes on amendments to bills will have the full committee

[@rjay7019]

It's always empty 😢

Even when the chairs are full..they are still empty

[@IAmWithinEverything]

They’re never full anymore unless it’s to cheer on a DemonRat

[@Richard-wl1lg]

It happens all the time!! And it has been happening for longer than anyone wants to admit !!

[@matheussmoraess]

Everything is always on point. Can't get enough!

[@RobertSmith-lu2rm]

So why are we still talking about it and not acting ?

[@The_Rob_D]

And who runs the DoJ? Did you answer your own question yet?

[@stepheneldridge3637]

Congress doesn't have the power to enforce the law like that. They can recommend that the DoJ pursue action. In this case, the DoJ colluded with those being accused. They are literally recommending a group of people to prosecute themselves. It's not going to happen.

[@harrybaxter5703]

Let’s hope when Donald trump is president again he will appoint a special prosecutor to investigate them all !

[@cheecherchonger]

God Bless our Conservative Republican Leaders as our Country Battles relentless Evil that is rooted in the Core of the Democrat Party.

Bullshit… goddam them all…

Mr. Smith!? Stop using the term common sense on our government. Please!?

Everyone...have a wonderful day...blessings and much love to you all ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bigfoot-id8bv]

Excellent! Now let’s investigate for 5 more years then pat ourselves on the back for doing nothing.

[@earlputnal9124]

There will ne repercissions against all of the activities this Congressman is outling in this opening speech.

[@truthisthevictory9278]

"Examining liberal wrongdoing and corruption is like drinking from a fire hose"

[@JoseRafael-oc3xu]

Bullshit…

They do think they are in Africa

[@The1stDukeDroklar]

Or WW2 Germany...

[@mars353]

Is the prosecution of Trump a campaign contribution?

[@RiceaRoni354]

Let’s discuss that Congress has their own slush fund to pay for the same types of claims.

[@samuelserbanic1598]

Local lawfare is the obvious downhill result

Consider the possibility that we are in a spiritual (mental) war between good/truth and evil/falsity. Could thoughts, feelings, desires come from spirits who are able to influence and control us if we choose to believe them?

[@IAmWithinEverything]

Yes

I'm an atheist so I believe the only evil or good that exists is in the hearts of mankind.

Mr Obama and Mr Obama, what's your next plan

[@lahanlon]

Can you imagine the fraud that would come from making hush money payments campaign expenses? Somebody could raise millions of dollars in political donations then have their friends collect hundreds of thousands of dollars at a time from their campaign by pretending to be hush money payments. Then they could have a good portion of that money come back to the candidate personally through some other means.

[@thomschall8973]

I agree totally. Just really sick and tired of all the talk, and no one is doing anything about the problems. Just totally disgusted with our whole government and how it seems we are just watching them waste time and energy and money on things they never intend on fixing! Dog and pony!

Good thing nobody cares what fake republicans say except for democrats. Also, please tell me what crime Trump is guilty of. The exact criminal statute please. Because even the jury didn’t know.

[@Crunch2327]

If trump had dropped 1 dollar on the street in 1984, you loons would have retroactively made that littering, a felony, backdated it, and charged him a felony for every cent of that dollar.

[@queenbee3647]

NO ACTUAL EVIDENCE FOR ANY CRIMES. JUST HE SAID, SHE SAID BROUGHT FORTH BY HIS POLITICAL ENEMIES. AND GEE JANE, WE KNOW NO DEMOCRAT WOULD LIE, WOULD THEY? WINK
