But.............but...............there's nothing there. Why is Trumpy so concerned about this investigation into Russian meddling, if there was no collusion, as he says?
Shhhh, let him do his thing. He'll be out soon enough.
Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

So, how are you able to blatantly not answer questions and not exert executive privilege at the same time? Seems to me you'd be in contempt of Congress for doing that and subject to charges.
You'd have to prove he was lying. You can say you don't recall all you want.
This is how Saint Ronnie skipped out on Iran-Contra.
It's a passive stonewall, and it's almost impossible to break unless you actually find overwhelming evidence in which case testimony hardly matters anyway.

It can only be contempt if Congress thinks it is. But R's have been handing more and more power to the President- starting with Bush, and while protesting about decisions, even to Obama. Obama was forced to use EO's due to the total lack of action from congress, lead by R's. don has taken that, and just run with it- and extends it to make up new rules. It will take congress to challenge Sessions' non-privilege privilege. And it's going to be a while until they will.
Heck, don is out there flaunting rules that are directly in the Constitution, and the reason? Because. (the answer to the Emolument's challenge- they don't apply to him)
It's pretty stunning to see Congress just give away their position in the Government like that. I guess they can claim "it wasn't my fault"- when it's actually their JOB to do this.

don can do that.
Nobody else can.
And jeffy was pretty careful not to actually say "executive privilege"- as that would open a whole new ball of string. They have made up this. It's up to congress to accept or challenge it. And as long as it's more about R vs D, it will go on. R's are happy to let go of their congressional power to stay in charge.

Then can we stop these worthless hearings because the GOP is using them as a smokescreen to do real damage to this country...

Meh... it's possible Trump heard a story about that very thing here. All Bill and Hil did was borrow some money to buy a couple hundred acres in the Ozarks, hoping to make a buck.
Special counsel gets involved, and next thing you know Bill is anxiously parsing the meaning of two and three letter words in front of the Senate.
