GOP Reps crash closed door Impeachment hearing

Yes, they did indeed crash that closed-door hearing yesterday, just before Pentagon official Laura Cooper was to give a deposition.

The usual suspects were in command of the White House-approved op: Representatives Matt Gaetz of Florida, Louie Gohmert of Texas and Louisiana's Steve Scalise.

There were around 25 GOP Reps taking part, all told.

When they pulled off their disruptive, obstructionist stunt, they showed the country once again that today's GOP cares nothing at all about preserving our democratic institutions, respecting our Constitution, following the rule of law or allowing Congress to actually function.

They only care about winning political battles and keeping a very tight death-grip on the power stick.

Which means, of course, covering up the many misdeeds and crimes committed by donald trump, their esteemed Thug-in-Chief.

They're really, really good at doing that.

This story from Bloomberg is a good place to start if you'd like a more detailed accounting of yesterday's events.

Here's the truth: trump supporters and enablers in the GOP Congressional Caucus have been reduced to attacking the Impeachment process now that the Country--and the whole world, for that matter--can plainly see how stupid, petty and utterly corrupt their Poser Prez is.

Sad.
