Even after the collapse of the Russian collusion investigation, Democrats seem to be doubling down on labeling opponents as Russian lovers and Putinites.
Yesterday, I testified at a hearing with members of Congress who want the House to investigate possible FBI abuses. One of the witnesses, former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, testified how her anti-war positions led to her being labeled a Russian asset by Hillary Clinton. Not to be outdone, MSNBC contributor and former Senator Claire McCaskill appeared on MSNBC following the hearing to denounce Senator Chuck Grassley and Sen. Ron Johnson as “Putin apologists” and Putin lovers.
McCaskill went on MSNBC’s Deadline: White House to declare “I mean, look at this, I mean, all three of those politicians are Putin apologists. I mean, Tulsi Gabbard loves Putin.”
(For the record, she also attacked me as not being “a real lawyer.”)
McCaskill previously denounced the personal attacks used by Republicans as unacceptable in American politics.
It is an ironic follow up to a hearing where I warned Congress not to replicate the mistakes of the McCarthy period and label opponents as “fellow travelers” and Russian sympathizers. McCaskill immediately responded by denouncing these members as Putin apologists and lovers.
Democrats like McCaskill expressed disgust at the personal attacks of former President Donald Trump against opponents and witnesses. I joined in that criticism. However, they are now engaging in the same attacks to avoid addressing issues of agency bias, censorship, and investigatory abuse. On MSNBC, those seeking investigations into these allegations are now Russian lovers and traitors. Even with a supportive media, it will not work. The polls have shown that the public overwhelmingly support investigations into these matters. It will, however, succeed in adding to the hateful rhetoric that now permeates every aspect of our political discourse.

Shameless hooker.
Abolish the 19th.
Yawn… can someone change the channels please. I’d sooner watch paint drying or some funny commercials instead.
Fat disgusting sweat hog.
I haven’t heard that term since The Grease Man was broadcasting out of DC.
“suburbanite sweat hogs” I believe it was.
Trigger words=sweat~hogs.
Coming attractions?….
I live for the day when the U S congress is doing this.
You’d think in all of Ukraine that someone could find a flamethrower. They’re going to lose this war…yugely.
My dyslexia reads it as fishfight breaks out…
These political whores literally need to kill themselves.
It’s ok we removed from power here in MO a while back. Worthless opinion.
Really? How many times was she elected and reelected upon the grave of her husband? Oy vey
The HAG needs hung upside down and beat to death.
Investigation? To what end?
The FBI need to be shut down, with its personnel (past and present) fired and banned for life from being employed with the government and government contractors.
I liked her better when she was the Crypt Keeper on TV, better she should have stayed in her box
McCaskill oughtta be wearin’ a mask still…Ugh. That mug.
I see a wedding band. Some poor bastard has to crawl into the sack
every night next to that one. Hoo, boy. I betcha when the makeup comes off,
the house cat screams across the room to the litterbox, pronto.
Well, we have this airhead. But then I look across and I see this (caveat, i am not a trump fan and he is not the answer):
If that grouping does not scare the hell out of America, it is not paying attention.
These are all the same uni-party ass clowns that have been trying to call the shots for years. Why is it that COVid didn’t take out a single one of these pea brains?
If this is the DeSantis team, that is very revealing.
She needs to be ripped to shreds by a band of feral nigs.
this only happens because the GOPeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee gives her cover by never punishing (Politically of course) these filthy pigs that are literally destroying us. The Reason…
So let me get this straight…
Bitch was a full time US Senator. Now she’s a part time “contributor” at MSNBC.
Given that career trajectory and that retarded cow face, we’re listening to her, why?
We’re talking about her , why?
MSNBC, huh? Sounds like Bill Gates is cooked right into that cake. It sounds like a golden parachute for a tedious, nattering bitch with nothing to offer society.
Again. Why is this walking embodiment of “Karen” occupying our time when we may have precious little time to spare as it is? And not coincidentally, the fugly cow is actively working to shorten the time we have left…all for a little attention and filthy lucre.
Such a loathsome creature should be beneath all our notice.
Truth hurts, don’t it…Karen of the Cows?
Henceforth, thy tribal name shall be “Clarabelle”. So let it be written. So let it be done!
Repeal the 17th Amendment. Put picking the State Senators back into the hands of the State Legislatures where it originally was. If a Senator sent to DC wasn’t doing the job the State sent them to DC to do they could be fired and replaced by the Governor or State Legislature. The 17th Amendment should never have been written let alone made into Law.
When the tactics of democrats are nothing but propagandized lies in repetition and amplified by leftist layers in media and entertainment we have the true NAZI MOVEMENT in US GOVERNMENT
THATS WHY THEY SUPPORT UKRAINE
it’s everything NAZI DEMOCRATS LOVE MONEY LAUNDERING PROPAGANDIZED WAR EFFORTS KILLING THE VERY PEOPLE THEY CLAIM TO PROTECT WHILE CASHING IN
Zelenzky is a jew, the whole Ukraine government is jewish. Even Azov Battalion is run by an Israeli. But keep selling that “Nazi” bullshit.
