I got a kick out of the MSNBC video accompanying the headline--Chris Matthews just spends the whole time trashing the House Intel Committee, and Joaquin Castro says "This is the equivalent of bringing in a suspect, asking him if he started the fire, and when he says no, throwing up your hands and going 'welp we're done here'."

Very in depth investigation. So in depth that they never even brought in Manafort, Gates, Flynn or Papadopoulos during the course of it. Those guys probably knew nothing and would have been a waste of time.

CNN was even interviewing some idiot who basically said, "well, we asked them if they colluded with Russians, and they said no, so we took them at their word!"

Like, do they not understand how loving bad that sounds? How can any but the dumbest Republicans say, "well, that sounds completely reasonable"?

There are no average intelligence Republicans left. The base will eat this up and I fully expect Hannity and Gorka to give Nunes glowing endorsements and blowjobs tonight.

Literally a quote from a CNN panelist earlier this afternoon about the House wrapping up their investigation: "If this decision were printed on toilet paper, I wouldn't even bother to bend down and wipe my rear end with it."

Their goal is and always has been to muddy the waters. They did this so the casual voter who doesn't keep a close eye on the news but occasionally sees the headlines on facebook or chyrons on news channels in restaurants will say "oh, I guess there was no collusion after all."

They started it before Mueller was appointed so yeah they probably thought they could make it go away with a phony investigation. At the very least they can present it to the MAGA die-hards to parrot to anyone that will listen.

Devin Nunes: galaxy brain is completely in on all of this, and just continues to make it super obvious whenever Mueller would like to come for him.

Remember; Nunes also wants to open investigations into the intelligence community and the deep state, because he is the idiot king of mentally impaired shills for Trump in Congress.

CNN and MSNBC at least are doing a good job ensuring that the headline matches the story. The chyrons so far have said that the House GOP's conclusion flies in the face of the intelligence committe.

I expect Fox will be popping champagne bottles and sucking Trump off all week, but who gives a poo poo.
