Comey just never told him about the FBI investigation.

Counterintelligence investigations are generally siloed, even from senior officials like Clapper was. Nothing out of the ordinary here.

 

[B-Dubs]

here we gooo

Just opening statements still.

 

[louiedog]

Has anyone done a "Yates of the Furious" poster photoshop yet?

I know just responding to the poster.

 

[Billy_Pilgrim]

Tone so far:

Don't fuck about, this stuff is deeply fucking serious.

 

[habithipster]

Yes, especially when it's the Republicans who are in charge of these committees, it's all political

Im as anti-right as anyone can reasonably be and this is such dismissive bullshit. There hasn't really been any reason to question the integrity of the Senate investigation.

It's just his attempt to preemptively taint the hearing as bullshit. Because the hearing will probably put the Trump administration in a bad light.

Feinstein distributing a writeup on Flynn, timeline background and such. Also mentioned a link to French elections hacking efforts.

For those not able to listen.

 

[Maxim726X]

As important as this is... I just can't get too worked up.

We all know the partisanship in the Senate will kill any potential action that should arise from the hearing today.

It's all up to the FBI.

Also, reading between the lines, the House Intelligence Committtee investigation into this has been a giant embarrassment.

 

[Toa TAK]

Someone hit that camera.

 

[RustyNails]

He said 18 minutes not 18 hours. It was a reference to the missing 18 minutes of Nixon's tapes regarding Watergate.

Oh crap, my bad. Lol

 

[Slacker]

Did Grassley decline an opportunity at an opening statement? It's weird listening to one of these thinks and hearing all adults speaking.

Rittenhouse.

 

[Stinkles]

Edit.

What's the point of engaging disingenuous trolls? It's just like Dancing in the Dark.

Thanks.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

[plagiarize]

Going after Pence too... nice.

 

[Ernest]

Hill Sources: White House contacted multiple GOP Senators TODAY asking them to cancel Yates hearing

Cheeto Mussolini is legit shook!

 

[NullPointer]

Going after Pence too... nice.

Mike "this is the first I'm hearing about this" Pence

 

[A Serious Man]

Oh. Shit.

 

[BoogieWoogie]

YATES KNOWS OH SHIT

 

[Fenderputty]

It needs to be done since the President made a big deal out of it especially Susan Rice.

Correct. Why are people freaking about this? Lol

 

[Kurdel]

Oh shit

 

[smokeymicpot]

Yates says she can't answer if she has evidence of collusion between Trump campaign and Russian gov bc it's classified

Correct. Why are people freaking about this? Lol

No idea everyone freaks about everything here.

 

[Chumley]

What the fuck is Clapper doing???????????

 

[HabeeNo]

Something is up guys lol

(As we all knew haha)

 

[Schucky Ducky]

Rittenhouse.

I really hope Timeless gets renewed.

 

[SexyFish]

SHITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT BOYYYYYYYYYYYYY

 

[B-Dubs]

Yates says she can’t answer if she has evidence of collusion between Trump campaign and Russian gov bc it’s classified

Which is a bit of a thing.

 

[oti]

Graham really going in immediately.

 

[plagiarize]

Lindsay Graham tripping over himself here. Wonderful.

 

[Beer Monkey]

Clapper tapdancing.

 

[Creamium]

 

[zsynqx]

What happened!? Can't watch

 

[mjc]

In which Graham can't understand why an FBI investigation would contain classified information.

 

[Lonewulfeus]

YATES KNOWS OH SHIT

Yea that statement sounds like they have classified information establishing collusion.

 

[Effect]

YATES KNOWS OH SHIT

Missed it. What was the question and what was said?

 

[Ludovico]

wwwooooowwwwwwww

 

[Hesemonni]

Nothing will come of this.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

some guy in England lol

 

[Nazgul_Hunter]

Lindsay Graham is immediately going after Trump's biggest scapegoat comment re: Russia collusion. "Clapper said there's no evidence!" and he's asking straight away about it.

 

[Chumley]

Im so confused

 

[smokeymicpot]

Clapper: "We couldn't corroborate" sourcing on the British dossier

Yates said she had 2 in person meetings and a call with McGahn abt Flynn

 

[Beer Monkey]

Missed it. What was the question and what was said?

She said she can't speak to whether collusion occurred without revealing currently classified information.

 

[Jenov]

some guy in England lol

I laughed at that too

 

[Vincent Alexander]

Daaaamn. Yates just set him the fuck straight. I like her.

 

[Afrikan]

why are yall getting excited about?

help me catch up. With Yates.

 

[Metroidvania]

Missed it. What was the question and what was said?

She was asked the 'same question' Clappier was in a previous hearing, insofar as whether or not she knew of any information/evidence about Trump and Co. improperly colluding with Russians to influence the election.

She replied 'Classified'

 

[sugarhigh4242]

Why bother asking Clapper anything under oath after the Snowden docs? Homie is a notorious perjurer.
