Always good to see Dems stand up for the rule of Law and protecting our Democracy. In the face of those beholden by their loyalty oaths, to projecting the Russian Stooge.

Adam Schiff Gets John Durham to Admit Russia Helped Trump

by Ursula Perano, Daily Beast via Yahoo.com — Wed, June 21, 2023

When Republicans brought Special Counsel John Durham to the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, they thought it’d be an opportunity to score points on Democrats—particularly Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), who spent years hyping up Donald Trump’s connections to Russia. What they got instead was a viral moment when Schiff got Durham—the man tasked with concluding whether the FBI’s investigation of Russia’s connections to the 2016 Trump campaign was appropriate—took Durham to task.

Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff make the most of their prosecutorial skills and take John Durham to task, for not really understanding the clear findings of the Mueller Report — especially those involving Russian interference in 2016 Election.

x To Sum Up:



1) While Joe Biden could have fired the Trump-appointed personnel leading the Hunter Biden investigation, he didn’t and let Trump’s DOJ/Trump-era prosecutor stay on the case pic.twitter.com/AZZ4qo7DXl — Eric Swalwell (@ericswalwell) June 20, 2023

x 4) Unlike MAGA Republicans when Trump was indicted, no Democrats have threatened violence or Civil War after charges against Hunter were brought. — Eric Swalwell (@ericswalwell) June 20, 2023

No wonder the Trump gopher’s society want to censure Schiff so much — the good Rep makes their attempts to protect their Insurrection Instigator (with these mock hearings), look like the cos-play shams, that they really are.

x Wow. Just wow. Schiff completely exposes Durham and his sham report here. This has completely backfired on the Republicans. https://t.co/6fahw0F4iC — MeidasTouch (@MeidasTouch) June 21, 2023

At one point, Schiff asked Durham whether he was aware that Robert Mueller’s investigation revealed that Donald Trump Jr. “was informed that a Russian official was offering the Trump campaign 'very high-level and sensitive information" that would be incriminating of Hillary Clinton.” “Sure, people get phone calls all the time from individuals who claim to have information like that,” Durham claimed. "Really? The son of a presidential candidate gets calls all the time from a foreign government offering dirt on their opponent. Is that what you're saying?" Schiff replied. ca.movies.yahoo.com/...

Not to be outdone, many other Dems took Durham to task too, which you can read about here:

Like I said, always good to see Dems stand up for the rule of Law and protecting our Democracy.
