> [@EasyPhil](#): > > It’s always important to know as much about the players as you can which can give you some insight into what they “might” be thinking. Schiff has shown himself to be a liar but is a better attack dog than Nadler hence the impeachment hearing took place in the house intelligence committee and not the house judicial committee. Schiff is clearly biased, he claimed to have evidence of “collusion” which nobody ever saw and he wrote a memo disputing the Nunes memo which we know see was inaccurate thanks to the IG Report. We also now see Schiff claiming he didn’t know about the information brought to light in the IG Report until now which isn’t true because he had access to the same intelligence information as Nunes. The Nunes memo is in accord with the IG Report findings, the Schiff memo which sought to discredit the Nunes memo is not in accord with the IG Report. Are you suggesting that the IG report could have been written AS IT CURRENTLY APPEARS in January of 2018? ---

> [@Rick\_Kitchen](#): > > Every single person Meet The Press interviewed was a white Trump supporter. Those are supposedly the Regular Joes they found. Considering Kent County Michigan is 76% white. It would be much weirder if they someone who wasn’t apparently white. They also voted for Trump over clinton 48-43. I heard two of the people on the panel admit the didn’t support trump so it seems like they got a representative average joe panel. ---

It’s my impression that the powers that be here are losing patience with this particular type of disingenuous, useless troll. I think that’s why this thread was so quickly moved to the Pit. So, hopefully, we won’t have him to kick around much longer. ---

The key question going forward is whether the memo’s authors and sponsors will face any consequences for their dishonesty. If not, we can expect to see more of the same, with potentially dire results. ---
