‘We Are Trying To Get Some Things Accomplished Before The Election’

Indeed…like FALSELY and MALICIOUSLY discrediting Biden through Ukraine!

What does Pirro know about “something’s going to happen before the election and he (Biden) is not going to be in the ticket”?" - that she could not help herself but blurt it out (just like Roger Stone on Wikileaks)?

Let me guess: Barr’s going to release a “summary” of Durham’s report before the election.

And WHY would you say that, given longstanding DOJ policy NOT to affect or interfere with elections?

House Judiciary should call him and grill him over this one remark. For five or six hours, Without a break for lunch.

He’s not going to release anything before the election, but he’ll talk about his report like it’s the most salacious thing every with charges pending after Nov 3, all because he doesn’t want to charge anything before the election for fear of effecting the outcome.

This guy’s schtick is so transparent.

They are advertising their plan and in doing so have lost all chance of being taken seriously. People are baked in. Trump is toast.

He’s still jonesing, preternaturally fixated, to find evidence to discredit the origin of the FBI’s investigation into his campaign?

It seems even the most malignant of narcissists would surely recognize that is the least of his worries at this point, but evidently not.

What’s actually funny is that he’s now openly begging his Roy Cohn: “Make my only wish come true.” [click, click, click]

“Under my leadership, the dedicated public servants at the DOJ are working tirelessly every day to meet the urgent deadline of corrupting the election before the election.”

I’m sure you are, Mr. Mitchell. But if your coup fails in November you should fully expect to be held accountable is some meaningful and lasting way.

October is going to be lit.

On one side, we’ll have Barr’s not so surprising surprise report, along with whatever Russia can cook up.

And on the side of truth, justice, and the American way, we have Strozak and Woodward books due in September and Brennan’s book in October. Along with whatever else the IC has in the secret compartments of their briefcases.

It’ll be a surprise if I get any work done that month.

I kinda think the same about anything Ukraine-related too (and this Durham probe will cover Ukraine). It has lost its efficacy to all except the cult.

It’s just the whine wine talkin’.

If not, she’s setting herself up as a material witness, if not a co-conspirator.

Barr, at one time you were respected.
There is time for you to bail and become an American.
Or you can remain a Trump.
