Once again, House Republicans put high hopes in a sham investigation that fell flat on its face. And once again, they're attacking special counsel they once championed. It happened to John Durham, David Weiss, and now Robert Hur.
Maybe Republicans just have a problem accepting reality.
.Rep. Eric Swalwell: You have been thoroughly humiliated in your impeachment quest, which, by the way, is that happening? Is that dead? You have nothing. I just invite you to move on. Let's do something that actually helps people.
.Adam Schiff: Earlier this week, we witnessed the spectacle of the highest-ranking Republican in the country, the speaker of the House, someone in line for the presidency, standing outside of a Manhattan courthouse in a hush money payment to a porn star trial.
.Rep. Eric Swalwell: I don't think that anything could animate the phrase “do nothing Congress” more than missing votes and canceling hearings to go up and be a spectator at your cult leader's trial.
.Rep. Nadler: Although we have always had our disagreements, I’ve never seen Members of Congress so readily turn on democracy itself in service to one man. I never in my life thought I’d see Members of Congress readily attack law enforcement officers to protect a criminal.
.Rep. Nadler delivers his opening statement during today's Attorney General contempt markup.
