Canpakes, this is a big deal. Every day is Christmas for Putin.

well, there has been a saying for some time that if you want to k,ow what Pelosi is doing tomorrow see what Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is tweeting today.

Please, continue with your assumption that i am ignorant and make manifest this "existential threat". Not that the sky isn't falling, but all you got is a nut on the head at this point.
so please, explain how America and the US Constitution is so fragile that 35 months of 1 President is anywhere near a "threat". Explain how this cheeto that you proclaim as being a moron and failure can disassemble the stronghold of American Liberty in one term, as one branch.

Sure, no problem.
You don’t even need to ask us to do so given how obvious this conclusion is.

Re: Swamp Watch News
WASHINGTON — Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, two key subjects in House Democrats' impeachment inquiry who worked with Rudy Giuliani in an effort to gather damaging information about Joe Biden, have been arrested, a spokesperson for the US attorney's office in Manhattan confirmed Thursday morning.
The US attorney's office did not immediately say what the two foreign-born nationals were charged with, but did confirm that prosecutors out of New York are handling the case. According to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported the arrests, the charges are related to campaign finance violations.
A copy of the indictment, which was first published by the New York Times, shows the two men were charged with conspiring to get around federal laws that prohibit foreign nationals from contributing to US campaigns. They're accused of entering into "secret agreements" to hide the scheme from candidates and federal regulators, laundering foreign money into the campaigns through various corporate identities, and using "straw donors" to make the contributions.

Rudy Giuliani’s indicted Ukraine henchman gave thousands to Kevin McCarthy
By Brad Reed October 10, 2019
Lev Parnas, the foreign-born businessman who was indicted this week on campaign-finance charges, donated thousands of dollars last year to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA).
As flagged by New York Daily News reporter Michael McAuliff, Parnas in June 2018 contributed $2,700 to McCarthy’s reelection campaign.
Other filings made with the Federal Elections Commission show that Parnas donated that exact same amount to Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX), who on Thursday was implicated in an indictment of Parnas and his business partner, Igor Fruman.
Mostly, however, Parnas in recent years has made donations to assorted state Republican parties throughout the country, as well as to the pro-Trump Great America super PAC.

Re: Swamp Watch News
So they were arrested just an hour after meeting Giuliani for lunch, and they were headed to Germany with recently purchased one-way tickets.
Nothing to see here? Looks like someone was trying to get the hell out of Dodge.
lol
Could you imagine if anything like this had happened with a Democrat?

Re: Swamp Watch News
Yeah, but according to subgenius, hypocrisy is not a crime, and is nothing to be concerned about! 

No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Re: Swamp Watch News
I like how there were 43 new allegations of sexual assault against the President yesterday and his other, more even more alarming conduct is crowding out conversation about it.
I think Ken White (i.e. Popehat) described this as being newsboarded.

Trump says he doesn't know these guys. But he admits "maybe there is a photo of them with me."
lol
