if the Trump lawyers could be charged with a crime for lying to congress with all the lies they are telling.

Pocan said (as I recall) that no they couldn't be charged with anything for lying in an impeachment.

This is crazy - they are also spreading debunked Russian propaganda

They are lying in court, to the court, and to the jurors, after all.

you would like to think there would be some penalty for obstructing justice.

the corollary to this is, if one depends on Fox and similar outlets for information, the exact opposite applies.

Part of the problem, in my view, is that as newspaper readership slowly declines, far too many depend on social media and broadcast media for what they see as the facts. And given that the US media is overwhelmingly owned by the right wing, what is called truth and fact are often neither.

but that only covers their base and ReTHUG officials

It's all they got.

They are setting precedents that will reverb for many decades.

Fuck them all.
