This FBI statement is a classic example of the logical fallacy known as an “argumentum ad hominem” or “argument against the man”. It demonstrates the head honchos at the FBI can’t defend themselves against the Twitter information, therefore they must personally disparage anyone who criticizes them. So they are reduced to name calling, like any wretched bully on the proverbial playground who can’t get his way. How truly pathetic they are.

I can tell you first hand the anger I am witnessing at the betrayal is very, very real. I listened to 3 lifelong friends and several of their family & neighbors say they will never vote again should this bill pass.

Died in the wool, lifelong Republicans every one of them.

If this bill makes it and was enabled by Republicans, GOP will lose what is left of their dwindling base, and rightly so.
