Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, struck three blows against the Deep State smear machine in his five minute session at Thursday’s sham impeachment hearing.
First he responded to Democrat Rep. Terri Sewell lamenting how Trump and his supporters smear women by pointing out that Republican Elise Stefanik has been the subject of disgraceful attacks, including by the overweight snake George Conway. So yeah, don’t pretend only anti-Trump witnesses are attacked on Twitter.
Second Turner responded to witness Fiona Hill’s unsubstantiated claim that she “had heard” some members of the committee did not believe the Russians had tried to interfere in the 2016 election. Absurd! Turner read from the committee’s bipartisan report that had confirmed just such interference.
Perhaps most powerfully, Turner exposed witness David Holmes’ two-faced claim that he wanted to protect Ukraine when his testimony needlessly held up for ridicule the president of the Ukraine as a toady of the United States.
Turner has proved to be one of the most insightful questioners on the Republican side of the aisle, although frankly all of them have been very good.
