The GOP is now a party of lawbreakers…

Well…hey, GOP…where the hell did your party of “law and order” go? You have been the ones harping for the past 40 years that the dems are “weak” on crime and I guess that meant that we don’t break the law enough? Over the past week, we have seen almost every damn officer in the trump administration either break the law or incite others to do it…if it isn’t Barr obstructing justice by “editing” the Mueller report, to Mnuchin directly breaking the clear law by not releasing idiot boy’s tax returns to congress, to trump blatantly ordering his CBP officers to break the law at the border and dangling a pardon to get them to do it, all of the repubs are nothing but criminals now who only mouthed their allegiance to the constitution all the while doing the bidding of the criminal in chief who squats in the WH. Now dems, it is time to use all of the power of government to bring these criminals to justice starting with Mnuchin who you can hold in contempt of Congress and actually have him arrested and held until he complies with the law…and then Nadler, you need to subpoena the Mueller report and file suit against Barr and trump to get a judge to order the complete report released to congress as is their right as part of their constitutional responsibilities  of oversight of the executive branch…and then, Nadler, start the damn impeachment of this asshole…there are so many things he has done that meet the standard of “high crimes and misdemeanors” that this needs to be done…now…get after it…impeach…

It’s official…Barr’s a criminal, too…

Well…welcome to the latest repub coverup of trump’s criminality…did you expect anything different from Bill Barr? He is editing the Mueller report to make sure it doesn’t say anything bad about trump and trying to keep that information from the congress who has the right to see it…this is as much obstruction of justice as anything trump has done and the congress needs to hold him accountable…and just this morning it got so, so much worse with Barr announcing that he is going to “investigate” the people in the intel community who found that the Russians were helping trump…calling these folks doing their jobs protecting the US “spies” for investigating the clear contacts between trump and Russian spies. So, this is where we’re at…we have a lawless administration using the tactics of every would be dictator in the world being aided and abetted by the entire repub party and they will destroy this country before the next election when we can throw them out…there may be too much damage to repair and I will blame the repubs for helping it happen…impeach….

Subpoenas are coming…

Well…with Bill Barr still trying to obstruct justice by withholding the entire Mueller report from the House committees, the chair of the Judiciary committee, Jerry Nadler, has had enough and is readying subpoenas for the report and all supporting information to be issued by the end of the week. In a normal administration…or any administration before the criminal trump and his cronies infested the government, it was normal for the special counsel to supply the report and the underlying data as soon as the report was issued…every SC in the modern era has done this and there is no reason why Barr should not follow precedent…other than he can’t protect trump if he does…and let’s remember why there was a SC in the first place…to ensure an independent investigation that would be free of interference by the trump political appointees who run the justice department. So now, the real fight starts…and if Barr ignores the subpoenas, Nadler can send officers of the House to round up those who are ignoring the subpoenas and they can be held in contempt of congress until they comply….this could be an interesting week…

Are you surprised?

Well…with the 4 page summary on the Mueller investigation issued but AG Barr, are you surprised that he summarized the thousands of pages down to “trump did nothing that can be prosecuted”? I’m not, given Barr’s history as being a repub hack who I predicted would whitewash any findings against the idiot boy…after all, you just need to look at his history…Barr was instrumental in getting the Iran Contra felons their pardons from the elder Bush and has made it perfectly clear that he is a partisan hack that will do anything to protect repubs…and even said so in his confirmation hearing. So, why should we believe anything he has to say? Look, the only way we are going to get at the truth is to have house dems subpoena the entire report and the underlying evidence so impartial investigators can confirm what Barr had to say…and then summon Barr and Mueller to testify in front of the Intelligence and Judiciary committees to ensure that Barr is not able to get away with this coverup….I have confidence in the dems in the House to do their jobs and get the report released to the public…and if I were idiot boy, I’d skip the victory laps for now….the SDNY is still working on many more cases and, as I said before, the Mueller report is not the most important thing going on….it’s just one of the many things happening and trump will still go to jail after he is out of office….impeach….
