You must be talking about Trump-ie-gate! An even bigger biggest scandal in American history! I'm sure Fox News will be right on that one!

What a load of bullshit. Left-wing media trying to feed regular government activities as something extraordinary.

Keep investigating. AG Barr is dirty in soooo many ways.

Obama Fires Inspector General

My understanding is that Sen. Menendez is correct. So, why are we not investigating this further?

Just more of realDonaldTrump corrupt business, using the United States as the middle man. Why are we providing Saudi Arabia with arms? Most of 911 terrorist were from there.

The government has been selling weapons to Saudi for years, why now is it a big thing?

MSLSD loves to report rumor and innuendo, and claim it's 'news'.

Why not just go ask Mr. Linick?

Sen. Schumer: 'Dangerous' for Trump to say he uses hydroxychloroquineSenate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer found the president’s statements on using hydroxychloroquine reckless: “What the president did with hydroxychloroquine was reckless. Simply reckless The experts say, every expert who has looked at it says it doesn’t help you with covid. So he’s giving people false hope.” Pass the torch Every expert? Hardly. Schumer was caught lying about Trump conspiring with Russia, yet he can't stop. Lying is in his DNA. No matter how many times he's caught lying, he makes up more lies. Die__Trying_ I doubt very much he is taking those. He probably had the government stock pile them. Or he and his family have heavily invested in it.
