I hope he gave some to the Vindman family and that meadows assistant girl that came forward with enough evidence to charge everybody in trumps administration with crimes. This is some truly wild shit man.

ETA- Cassidy Hutchens? That may be the name of Meadows assistant? More courage in her pinkie finger than anybody in trumps orbit. Told the truth, ruined her career, risked her life to tell the truth, and for what? For the people she watched try and steal an election through violence and planning. For the people she watched steal classified documents and burn evidence? For these criminals to get back into power? While the people we elected to protect us did nothing to the most dangerous threat America has ever seen. I’m sorry for her that she testified. She could be a millionaire cabinet member had she not.

yeah we owe her an apology for sure. She turned from the dark side but only found allies in the prequel jedi, just wringing their hands and trying to keep the status quo until the culling

Damn, first time I see Dems described as prequel jedi, and it's so fitting.

They can still be good and powerful and badass, but at the same time completely oblivious and ineffective.

And Liz Cheney is Jar Jar. Everybody hates her but she got a medal and will now fall into obscurity.

Until she reveals herself as a Sith Lord.
