Jesus christ you know it's bad when you agree with John fucking Bolton. Those two are, at best, treasonous Russian assets.
- He's many things but Russian asset? Where do you get that from?
  
  There's pretty likely to be compromising information on Gaetz, so that could qualify.
  
  Gabbard is a hindu facist, she's part of that international right-wing reactionary coalition that formed after the arab spring freaked all the authoritarian leaders from Modi to Putin.

  Unless the OP believes that John Bolton is comprised of more than one person, they were probably talking about the two that Bolton cited as needing an investigation, not Bolton himself.
  
  I didn't downvote you because you were not rude about it. Thanks for asking Civil questions and coming to my TED Talk!
Those investigations had better be a lot more thorough than the ones done for bouf-boy Kavanaugh!
- Just release the results of the investigation that he just resigned from congress to prevent form being made public.
  
  Oh, when they don't confirm his appointment he will have resigned and lost his job, hopefully for good!
- Tulsi and Matt better start drinking BEER!
- Or the ones that were already done on him that amounted to nothing.
  
  So you're saying they have to find something?
Treason can carry a death penalty.

Just stating the facts.
- It sure fucking hasn't carried so much as an encouraging slap in the last few years unfortunately.....
- That's why Biden would be well within his rights as the president to have them all hung. But he's just going to let the fascists in with open arms.
  
  Hanged, but yes.
  
  That's a political bomb right there. I mean it either slams the brakes on fascism or the accelerator. And that's not to say they'll stop trying to reshape the nation. Our institutions are only as strong as our leadership and right now having a spine is an immediate disqualifier.
- Is that Netyanyahu?
When Trump does something anymore, I look to see what he is doing to emulate Hitler.

Here's my conspiracy theory right now:

He's trying to choose placements that will either a)litmus test current Republican senators so he can get his base to replace them and/or b) setting them up such that he can dismantle the uncooperative lying Senate that is blocking America's will.

It's probably as simple as hiring the biggest Russia kiss asses, but I still have my fears
- He's picking people that have damaging kompromat held over them, to guarantee that they will follow absolutely any order.
  
  Correction : he's being told who to pick by Moscow based on who else the have massive kompromat on
  
  Yeah. There was talk about using the 25th Amendment at the end of Trump's first term. That won't happen with this cabinet.
- SecDef choice is meant to disrupt the military so it is not as effective.
LOL, rule of law applied to the cons, what a quaint notion.
Why do they all look so weird.
- They knew they'd never make it on their looks, so they became republicans so they could take what they wanted without consequence.
- Human meat suit!
Gaetz has a decent chance of getting more done than milquetoast Merrick. (Laughcry 😭)

This timeline is completely FUCKED.
- Yeah right, he’ll be up to his eyeballs in liquor and minors
  
  He can tear up all his own DUI’s now instead of having his Daddy do it
- There will be Fox News appearances.
