‘We’re Not Happy, To Put It Mildly’: Barr Stonewalls Congress On Mueller Report
You might call it "fatalistic", but for right now, we're calling it "realistic".
On Sunday evening, when William Barr indicated that the Mueller report exonerated Donald Trump in the 22-month-old investigation into possible collusion between his campaign and Russia, we didn't mince words. It was a "big league" win for the president.
On Monday, we talked at length about the extent to which the public nature of Trump's blatant efforts to obstruct the special counsel probe paradoxically shielded
Calling all leakers. Uncle Sam wants you.
H, I think you’re right about all this. As has always been the case, who really is the enforcer in our system at the Federal level? The cops at the FBI? The military? Who is going to follow the “orders” of the House and make anybody do anything?
We’ve always relied on the general decency of people in power to eventually submit to the rules. That’s not happening now, and what can we do about it?
In his Congressional testimony, Michael Cohen told us Trump would not relinquish power gracefully. In this Administration, Trump and the the Department and Agency heads will do whatever they want.
Dark days for American Democracy
Trump is just one nasty human being. The sooner he is gone all of humanity will be better off.
Time for Wiki-L to stand up! Oh, hmm that’s not gonna happen.
He has set the playbook for all current and future administrations – on all sides. They will all be fools not to use it now that we know it works. Happens in all sports.
Barr’s summary confirms Mueller’s definitive finding that Russia did attempt to subvert the 2016 election.
Trump has always refused to acknowledge that fact.
So, how come nobody is shouting about this lack of “exoneration” of Trump. Was this not the first area of inquiry and now result?
The Dems (and all reasonable Americans) need to find one clear-thinking and articulate voice or they will lose it all to Trumpenstein and his rabid enablers.
Mr. Obama, where are you now that Americans (and the world) really need you!
The ‘fix was in’ as soon as Trump nominated Barr for A-G based on his published paper espousing why nothing would/could/should ever happen to Trump. The House and Senate are supposed to balance the power of the Executive Branch. The toady, subservient GOP-controlled Senate rammed through Barr’s appointment confirmation, knowing full well he would protect POTUS at the expense of the Constitution and the American people.
