If there's not a special thread for it, it would still belong in the Dem primary thread and not this one.

Even if that’s the case, him reading the report for sound bites will still be very effective.

Here, I can show you what the testimony will look like:

"I cannot comment on that"

"I cannot comment on that"

"The president's phrasing was inarticulate in this case, but I cannot comment on the meaning behind his words"

"That is not the way I would have phrased this specific request, but I cannot confirm there was an intent to obstruct"

"I cannot comment on that"

BRAKE FOR MOOSE posted:

Wayfair has been supplying bunk beds to the concentration camps, and employees are mad about it. They drafted a letter in protest that received several hundred signatures, with the main ask being to cut that poo poo out and establish a code of ethics that would prevent this from happening in the future.

Here is the response from the company leadership.


This should get media traction, but I don't know who to message that'd actually give a poo poo (I'm an indirect source and can't answer questions, and I can't give away the employee who leaked this to my group). Let them deal with the PR if that's going to be their opinion.

And then this

I know none of us are twitter famous but if you share it something might happen. I dunno it takes two seconds.

As I said I don't think we should look away and I don't want it to not be posted because we do have to face what is going on, but I spent ten minutes sobbing on my desk over that picture and I am already as against this poo poo as I can possibly be. She was loving FOUR. She was hugging her dad when she drowned, just... I can't, okay? If I pick up a book about the Holocaust I know I'm going to look at bad poo poo and I'm prepared for it. I did not expect to see that scrolling through this thread.

Just put it behind tags so people can read about it happening and choose the level of exposure they can handle. That's all I'm asking.
Yeah crying at work is rough I had a hell of a time calming down too :(

he said he wouldn't go beyond the four corners of his report, in other words, he's not going to speak about a bunch of currently-secret poo poo that hasn't been revealed

this was interpreted by the usual bad posters in here as "nothing matters he'll refuse to say anything like he's basically taking the fifth"

I want someone to ask Mueller the very simple question:

"Did you inform Barr you were done or did Barr inform you that you were done?"

How that played out is key to all of Barrs fuckery.
