    1. Trump for prison 2021 (when voted out 2020 despite of shady efforts, indicted ultimo January and tried in a court of law)

    2. @Chris Conger YOU MORONS ARE HEARING THE TRUTH FROM THE MEN THAT OWNS GPS FUSION AND STILL YOU MARCH LIKE TRAINED BOTS!

    3. Truth hurts huh? I know. After all this time you lame sheep thought he and Rethugliklans was being truthful and now you’re too embarrassed to admit we are right about your LYING savior! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  1. I’m glad this is coming out because they keep saying it’s the dems who paid them first when the republicans paid them and still kept in contact with them over it.

    1. @Larry Lucas It won’t take years to figure it all out. Information is coming forward quickly, Trump just keeps trying to stonewall all of it. I really think the stone wall is going to circle him and he is not going to get out of it…..from a person that watched Nixon go down.

    2. @Patricia roe Some are for sure. Sadly most Democrats are poor and uneducated. That’s a fact nobody can debate. Stars don’t lie. Poor and uneducated do

    3. @foreigner fan I hope you are not listening to Rush Limbaugh too much. Or you just not paying attention closely as to what is going on politicly in this country. You are wrong.According to exit polls, 61 percent of non-college-educated white voters cast their ballots for Republicans while just 45 percent of college-educated white voters did so. Meanwhile 53 percent of college-educated white voters cast their votes for Democrats compared with 37 percent of those without a degree.

      The diploma divide, as it’s often called, is not occurring across the electorate; it is primarily a phenomenon among white voters. It’s an unprecedented divide, and is in fact a complete departure from the diploma divide of the past. Non-college-educated white voters used to solidly belong to Democrats, and college-educated white voters to Republicans. Several events over the past six decades have caused these allegiances “to switch”, the most recent being the candidacy, election, and presidency of Donald Trump. But I will rephrase my comment to: the non informed voters instead of to their education level. Some of the poorest states in this Nation are republican controlled, with high unemployment and low income and poverty. But they vote republican because that is what you call the dumbing down of America, they think that’s the way life is, another words they don’t know any better.

  2. Finally this is front and center. We need to fact check the pig in chief in real time because so many people were completely unaware of the fact republican’ts started the investigation into trumputin. People won’t even believe it now. Just like people believed we went into Iraq after 9/11 because they were responsible for the attack.

    1. @James K. Boyle Are you listening at all? They are telling you that the Clinton campaign bought the dossier from the Republicons. Is that so difficult to understand. It’s never was a background check. It was always opposition research, started by the Republicons and when they didn’t need it anymore because Trump won the nomination they sold it to the Clinton campaign. Those are the stone cold facts pal. Whether you choose to believe them or not or remain ignorant is immaterial to anyone but you.

    2. Trump wouldn’t care now anyway as long as they keep protecting him. After all, he heard how Graham criticized him and now look.

    3. @Bob Loblaw LOL, they discovered???a hacking when? You are the ‘clueless cult clown’. They made up a bunch of crap they cannot verify and foisted it upon the public. Wake up.

    4. @david Bouras Nope. They said the hired Steele later. Nelie Ohr was their in house talent that dug up garbage. Steele just makes it all seem official. HE’S RETIRED MI6, AFTERALL. The proles love their retired spooks!

  3. We in Denmark knew early on (before election day 2016) that Trump had had several bankruptcies and abandoned projects and had done the university scam.
    But we did not know that so many people willingly believed a demagogue.

    1. Hate is powerful. How hatred can be used to control and manipulate. We now have proof that common sense is totally gone.

    2. @TheMaryam1891 Common sense should now be called what it is, “Rare Sense.” It doesn’t have the same ring to it!

    3. We in America were to lazy to go vote. He lost the popular vote but only a 1/3 of registered voters got out and did their civic duty. It’s 1 day a year that should be a national holiday of sorts so people can vote without missing pay and voters being suppressed.

    4. @The Rustic I agree with you on the holiday concept! Hopefully we will get the voter suppression BS done with. That in itself is criminal.

    1. @r dh the transcript in free to read online. Glenn Simpson did name the group. I’m sure you could find out who is funding them.

    2. This has been known for a long time. Why no body has corrected the false claims repugnants keep pushing was beyond me.

    3. @Donna Williams – if it was the only falsehood, it would be corrected every time. Fact checkers really work overtime.

    1. @Fx Y Really? You mean one entire person out of the millions who visit this channel thought I was funny? I don’t know what to say.

      Literally, because I have no knowledge/opinion about the fellow who created the Iron Dossier

  4. Trump has done business with Russia for years. When he could no longer get loans from the American banks he went to Russia. That is public information.

    1. @1247.cc fu, I don’t have to “do” anything, you little pissant. Look it up if you want to, I don’t give a f about Bloomberg.

      Another moron who can’t understand why using elected office to make money is wrong. You deserve a corrupt government. But I don’t.

    2. Don’tBeASheep ! You’re full of crap. It is blatently illegal for him to profit from his office, and no one is above the law. Everyone who has to follow the laws is against this.

    3. David Andresen Really, you’ve seen evidence that Obamas were grifters like the Trump’s? What evidence is that?

    1. @John Swo It was never sunstantiated that the specific DOJ subject, known as”Michael Cohen” entered the EU (Prague) for a meeting with Russian subjects either. But the BND (German intel) provided evidence that a U.S. citizen (birthplace: NYC) named Michael Cohen had flown into Berlin and crossed borders via Poland to Prague by train. The Passport scan image resembles the DOJ subject, and all bio-data as well. This is still under-going scrutiny.

      Btw, you might want to all-cap, e.g., “…NOT the impetus…”

  5. Robert Mueller threw that fight. It should’ve been obvious from his end testimony — someone who’s as articulate as he is, with that level of skill and training and attention to detail, doesn’t all of a sudden become sloppy and forgetful when called to the stand. Either someone put pressure on him or he acted contrary to his abilities as a result of personal motivations, we don’t yet know which one it is. Give it time and the truth will come out.

    1. I got the feeling that Mueller’s health is not great, but it could have been nerves. He’s not really a public spesking kind of guy.

    2. @Michae Dove I think Mr. Mueller is playing 4d chess. most of his moves were invisible and many are yet to be completed (time). he may have walked away from the board but the game is still in play.

    3. No it’s not over 90% of what was in the Steele Dossier is proven true – Mueller did what he could it was pointless him indicting Trump or recommending it if Barr refused to indict him –

      He said early on they had the evidence to prove Trump was involved

    1. Hey Michael if brains were Dynamite you wouldn’t have enough to blow your f****** nose! If I were you I’d go buy me another f****** dozen coloring books and maybe a little kitten

    2. @Lapin074 Yea, that’s exactly how they get sucked into “doing it right”. But it looks like Trump is trying to take advantage of every situation for political gain.

    3. for becky and leo- You two are poster children for the Dunning-Kruger Effect. You know, the tendency for stupid people to believe they are really VERY smart… Seems our president has problems there, too.

  6. Republicans paid for and started the whole investigation 🀣🀣🀣 you won’t hear this on fake/Fox news 🀣

  7. Republicans bring up the Steele dossier whenever Democrats mention Russian meddling and Trump cooperation with them in 2016. The difference is that Hillary never used the Steele dossier while Trump weaponized the Russian document theft. The Steele dossier didn’t become public until 1/10/17.

    1. @Mark bodman
      Captain bone spurs is no patriot obviously.
      His obnoxious flag hugging episode still nausiates my guts.

    2. @Mark bodman Donald never was in any of the armed forces, he managed to say out due to his connections and his money, how is that a “Patriot”? We are watching and soon to find out how his Patriotism for selling out the US national security to the world. Now US looks weak to the rest of it’s allies and other powerful countries. Also Trump has interfered with Eddie Gallagher a Seal, who discredited the Seals for killing and posing in a photo of the dead person. So Trump gave Eddie a pardon and now wants to give this criminal his Trident back!? Trump never will know the chain of command in the armed forces, this was not Trumps agenda to step in on this, Eddie should have never been pardoned. Trump a Patriot, Ha! At least Trump will now have Eddie Gallagher at Trumps side while Donald ties to go for re-election if he’s not impeached and then banned from running.

    3. @1247.cc
      I think drumpf has been ” reset” and denutted already by Pelosi.
      He’s already a squawking lame duck.

    4. @Jeffrey Hagelin Yes, of course Pelosi has him right where she wants him. She was, after all, forged in the crucible of appropriations and has proven herself, hic, to be a master legislator.
      Follow the drunk off the cliff, for all I care.
      Impeachment is suicide.

  8. Trump: “Vlad, your hackers must make sure I win in 2020.”
    Putin: “I will funnel money to you through your hotels and golf courses. But I want all the sanctions lifted and you must exit NATO.”
    Trump: “Da, da. Okay, boss.”

    1. More likely its
      Trump: Help Vlad, My businesses are failing.
      Putin: I will help you but you must do me a favor. Run for president. I will help you win.
      Trump: Great. I will make a great president.
      Putin: Yes you will (for us)
