So…two things happened on Wednesday, June 21. One, Adam Schiff got John Durham to admit that Trump had received help from the Russians. (That’s not the same as saying Trump sought help – just that he received it.) Two? The House GOP censured…Adam Schiff.
You remember John Durham. MAGA cons were practically orgasmic over what John Durham was going to expose and all the crimes he was going to prosecute and it was going to be AWESOME when he “gets” all the big, bad Democrats, picking on their poor, persecuted, pusillanimous perpetrator, Donald J. Trump. Then? Crickets. I mean, nothing.
He filed three charges, prosecuted two, lost ’em all. (Turns out, he had no case.) So the great and grand ‘Durham Report’ landed with a thud. Cons just moved on to the next outrage du jour. Thinking Americans had never expected Durham to find anything, anyway, so we all responded with a collective, “huh.”
Cons NEVER give up a lie, though. So, the House GOP called Durham in to give the full skinny. According to the Daily Beast, this resulted in an exchange between Schiff and Durham in which Durham at one point “clearly stated he doesn’t doubt the validity of evidence showing Russia was trying to help Trump – something many Republicans have vehemently denied.” Durham’s words? “I don’t think there’s any question that Russians intruded into – hacked into the systems, they released information.”
So maybe, I mean, just maybe, investigating whether Russia tried to help Trump get into the Oval Office wasn’t such a far-fetched idea, after all. When even the guy appointed to say Trump DIDN’T get help from the Russians says he DID get help, perhaps it’s time to drop that particular lie once and for all, eh?
But not THIS crazy-assed GOP infesting the House. THESE guys decided to censure Schiff for leading the probe into Russian interference. They got to scold him on the House floor. You know, for doing his job. (Sidebar: still no word on how they plan to handle George Santos – if, indeed, that’s his real name – for lying and potential criminal acts. Classic GOP, if you ask me…)

Heads are exploding! Fortunately, no brains have been damaged in the process as the heads in question belong to cons. They’re apoplectic that Hunter Biden pleaded guilty to crimes and was NOT sentenced to immediate death by hanging, then firing squad, then being drawn and quartered followed by just being taunted and insulted – a LOT! Damn it, he got away with murder because his dad, the senile, genius, doddering, shrewd, incompetent, mastermind sits in the Oval Office and ran interference for him.
Okay, so he actually got convicted of paying taxes late (in fairness, he DOES seem to have tried to avoid paying them at all) and checking off a box on a gun application saying he wasn’t a drug addict when he very much was a drug addict. It makes perfect sense that his father would run interference – but not too much interference. He didn’t block the DOJ from moving forward but he DID tell them to be nice to little Hunter? “Yeah, you can prosecute, but just a little, okay?”
“YEAH,” spittle the cons, “but the punishment he got was just a slap on the wrist – because his daddy protected him.”
“Well, the punishment he got was consistent with similar crimes in other cases. Hunter is going to do some probation and a diversionary program for the gun charge. (He apparently possessed a weapon for, get this, eleven days while a druggie.) Don’t you think the law should be consistent?”
“HELL, NO!” Shout the cons. “We want “justice” only when it suits us and “the cruelest of punishments” for people we don’t like! And we don’t like Hunter!”
“Okay, how about we start with the gun charge?”
“Oh, HELL NO! Guns are sacred, even for a DemocRAT! What part of ‘shall not be infringed’ don’t you understand?”
Hunter’s not out of the woods, yet. There are still other investigations going on. Why, it’s almost as if the DOJ is doing it’s job and shrewdly incompetent, mastermind moron Sleepy Joe is doing a terrible, perfect job of protecting him. Got it…
