Instead they act as the palace guard for the Democrat Party scurrying about screeching that there's nothing to see here

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostWhen a conservative is involved then no evidence is even needed to keep it in the headlines (witness the Trump collusion story itself[1]) with comments like "it's the seriousness of the charge that matters" used to justify it.
1. Although Trump is more a populist than conservative.
- The Kushner/Mannafort/Trump Jr. meetings at Trump tower in June 2016
- Papadopoulos meeting in April, 2016
- The cover-up statement about the above meeting issued by Trump in July 2017
- Meetings between Flynn and Russia in December (which he lied about)
- Session's "memory lapses" to the FBI
- The classified information Schiff (and others) indicated was heard behind closed doors and cannot be shared with the public
- Trump's own continual (and perplexing) defense of Putin and Russia
- Trump's own public encouragement fro Russia to hack the Clinton campaign
- Trump's current refusal to enforce the sanctions a Republican-led Congress voted on last year
That's the list that came to mind, just sitting here thinking about it. Clearly most people on the right have found ways to rationalize all of this away, but that rationalization does not mean "there is no evidence." It simply means the right is turning a blind eye to the evidence that has been collected.The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.

The only drumbeat we've heard for over a year is "Trump colluded with Russia! Trump colluded with Russia!" but those drums have gotten awfully quiet lately, haven't they? I wonder why?

And you must have a different news feed than mine - I certainly continue to see articles and reports about the multiple investigations in progress, and Trump continues to keep it hot by tweeting on it fairly regularly.
