Wow. Republicans started out with nothing...and now they have less than nothing.

I heard some conservative pundit say yesterday how republicans are cruising for a bruising in the upcoming November election. I notice myself agreeing with some of these pundits as they begin to approach reality again lol. I'm amused by the fact Senator Grassley seems to be the catalyst for the indictment after he publicly released the raw intelligence in FBI form FD-1023 in his zeal to incriminate the Bidens.

At least they've still got 2000 Mules . . . oh, wait.

The former FBI informant charged with lying about the Bidens’ dealings in Ukraine told investigators after his arrest that Russian intelligence officials were involved in passing information to him about Hunter Biden, prosecutors said Tuesday in a new court filing, noting that the information was false.

Prosecutors also said Alexander Smirnov has been “actively peddling new lies that could impact US elections” after meeting with Russian spies late last year and that the fallout from his previous false bribery accusations about the Bidens “continue to be felt to this day.

Refresh my memory, wasn't there some testimony that the leader of the GOP asked for a foreign country to make up dirt on Biden a while back? Seems that maybe the FBI should do a bit of digging to see who else was involved in getting this info. A lot of GOP House leaders seem to have their hands in the pie, so to speak.

That is my thought as well. IMHO there are Russians and Russia sympathizers elected to our Congress.
