I just wanted to give a shout-out to those Republicans in those committees who have made that happen. They are doing yeoman\u2019s work, and I just loved every minute of it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I could not agree more. So many people have been critical of Republicans for not fighting back, for sitting there and acting like paint on the wall. But, man, the Republicans in the House on these two committees &#8212; the Schiff committee and the Round Mound of the Gavel committee &#8212; have gone to town in the afternoon, and they have reversed course. You know, it\u2019s done on purpose.<\/p>\n<p>The Democrats start out only their witnesses, and then the cable news analysts talk about how devastating the case was. &#8220;Oh, my God, it\u2019s over for Trump. Oh, my God. These witnesses are brilliant. Oh, my goodness, what&#8230;&#8221; And by the afternoon they\u2019re blown to smithereens by the likes of Devin Nunes, Jim Jordan, John Ratcliffe, Doug Collins. You\u2019re right. They\u2019re all doing terrific. I didn\u2019t mean to ignore anyone by leaving their names out \u2019cause there\u2019s a bunch more of them too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: By the afternoon they&#039;re blown to smithereens by the likes of Devin Nunes, Jim Jordan, John Ratcliffe, Doug Collins. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":330785,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
