House Intel Committee Democrats Released Their Own Report on the Russian Collusion Probe, and They Did Not Hold Back

Earlier today the Republican majority of the House Intelligence Committee ended its investigation into whether Russia colluded with the Trump campaign during the 2016 election. Its final report on the matter concluded that there was "no evidence" of coordination.

But Democrats on the committee wasted no time releasing their own minority report on the investigation, which slammed the majority, saying the investigation was merely an effort to "muddy the waters and deflect attention away from the president"


They wrote that the Republican majority:

"shattered its commitment by rushing to end its investigation prematurely, even as it continues to investigate President Donald Trump's political opponents, our intelligence agencies, law enforcement, and diplomatic corps, and former members of the Administration of President Barack Obama."

Ranking member Adam Schiff (D-CA) told USA Today that, quite to the contrary:

"we found evidence of collusion in secret meetings and communications between trump campaign officials and associates such as Manafort, Gates, Papadopoulos, Trump Jr, Flynn, Page, and others, with emissaries and officials from or linked to the Russian government.”

Schiff also said on Friday that Republicans blocked efforts to subpoena phone records of Donald Trump Jr., who allegedly placed a phone call shortly before the infamous June 2016 Trump Tower meeting between campaign officials and Russian emissaries.

“We sought to determine whether that number belonged to the president because we also ascertained that then-candidate Trump used a blocked number,” Schiff told the Post. “That would tell us whether Don Jr. sought his father’s permission to take the meeting, and [whether] that was the purpose of that call.”

Mark Hamill Epically Roasts Trump Over Cringey AI Image For Star Wars Day

Star Wars icon Mark Hamill dragged President Donald Trump after the White House shared an AI image of Trump as a supposed Jedi for "Star Wars Day" to attack Democrats.

A meme shared by Trump's social media team depicts the president styled as what appears to be a heavily muscled, patriotic Jedi—complete with a robe, American flag backdrop, and bald eagles. However, the image includes a glaring contradiction: Trump is wielding a red lightsaber, traditionally associated with the Sith and the Dark Side in the Star Wars universe.

Trump Blasted After Sharing Bonkers AI Image Of Himself As The Pope

President Donald Trump was criticized after he shared an AI-generated image of himself in papal attire just days after telling reporters that he'd "like to be pope" following the death of Pope Francis.

Trump said that he himself "would be my number one choice" to be the next pope after he was asked who he’d like to see become the next pontiff. That would never, ever happen—and disrespects the billions of Catholics around the world who are in mourning.
