> The purpose of that committee is to be a factory for clips to show on Fox News and Newsmax. I appreciate your optimism but it's unwarranted.

The democrats got their clips for CNN, MSNBC, WP, etc with their sham of an investigation complete with a Hollywood director.

Now that there's over 14,000 hours of footage being released we'll have even more clips.

Democrats and Republicans can both suck. Pointing to Dems when Repubs are assholes doesn’t make Repubs any better. Being partisan doesn’t always mean a good thing.

I'm not arguing one is better than another. Just pointing out that there has been an ongoing investigation that was publicized and directed by a Hollywood director to drum up clips, news stories and support from their supporters and to pain their enemies in bad light.

Now that the pendulum has swing the other way the other side will get their chance to blow through millions and create their own circus for their supporters.

It's kinda amazing how they don't realize that the power they seize can and will be wielded by their enemy with absolutely no remorse.

This is false equivalence and irrelevant bothsideism.

Whataboutism, bothsideism. Same thing?
