my friend Rep Swalwell coming in and taking no nonsense!
Rosenstein is aware of no disqualifying conflicts of interest that Bob Mueller has.
Giuliani's whinging on cable about unindicted information being turned over to them is just hot air and he hasn't actually made such a request to the DAG

Gohmerts time expired a while ago and Goodlatte is just letting him talk... it was reclaimed time from Rosenstein and Goodlatte "interrupting him"

Rosenstein has "not received any improper order from the president to do anything that I think is wrong." "I wouldn't follow any improper orders."

Goodlatte is totally skewing this and allowing the right to slam Wray & Rosenstein. Of course he is. Also, I hope these guys have good friends to buy them drinks tonight. I'm not a huge fan of either Wray or Rosenstein, but JFC. Let them do their jobs and let them answer your asinine questions.

LOL Swalwell. "Did Mr. Strzok set up the June 9 Trump Tower meeting?"
Did Peter Strzok write a speech for Mr Trump inviting the Russians to engage in further hacking of the DNC?
LOLOLOLOL

Nice wide shot there showing that all the Republicans have left the chamber after their shouting Fox News talking points. Most of the Democrats are still there.

Do your fucking jobs as they should be, not as you do to score fucking points. Although maybe it is better they are gone if they would just keep interrupting and Goodlatte would let them.

Ok Representative Collins, here's the thing, the Rod Rosenstein would have nothing to do with Peter Strzok's polygraph. This whole line of questioning AGAIN shows a fundamental lack of understanding of department process and security clearances.

There is such a stark difference between the left and the right. its crazy Yes but you know what? I'm feeling pretty reassured that we aren't the crazy ones because these life long Republican civil servants who have reputations for being boy scout level conscientious are clearly irritated by the narrative the Republicans are trying to push.

I agree. I am just floored. I think every person should have to watch a hearing of this type before being able to vote, as well as a Senate Hearing.

Rep Schneider, D-IL: Are you confident that our electoral process is as secure as it needs to be going into the 2018 elections?
Rosenstein: "We only know what we know," But we're using a multifaceted approach to make our elections as secure as humanly possible.

I assume you're mostly joking but I couldn't support any kind of requirement before voting (outside of the existing age requirement). However, I think we need to do a better job of educating our kids on our government. I'd love to mandate that the schools do it but (a) they literally don't have time, and (b) that does nothing for kids in private or home school

Rep Lieu: It is ridiculous that we're having a hearing about Hillary Clinton's emails in June of 2018 when children are being ripped away from their parents. but if republicans are going to insist that we have "this stupid hearing," let's at least base the hearing on FACTS.

Ted Lieu has had it. We have no idea how to get children back to parents and we're talking about Clintons email.

Lieu says that the Republicans are mischaracterizing Mr. Strzok's texts and testimony and says that it's hypocritical for them to shout at the DAG about transparency while refusing to release the transcript of yesterdays hearing. He calls for an open hearing.

"Is there a Republican conspiracy and witch hunt against a Republican president?"
Wray: "As I've said before I do not believe that the Special Counsel is on any sort of witch hunt"

Rep Jayapal, D-WA: The only emergency I see here is the majority's fear of the truth. The truth of the Trump campaign's collusion with a foreign government.
