Chief of Staff John Kelly has excluded Democrats from a meeting planned for Thursday…


Sort of similar to what several States do on Election Day when black and brown people show up to vote.

Huckabee Sanders told reporters that as

I guess the GOP wants to avoid the appearance of innocence.

I was going to say, anything bad comes out because of leaks from this meeting, well it is not on the Democrats.

“What do you have to hide, John Kelly?” would make a great web ad or something.

All Rosenstein has to do is say, “Nope, bipartisan or no go”. But will he?

Oh the irony of making a meeting designed to investigate a possible political abuse of power uber political and an abuse of power is just too rich.

When Kelly lied about Fl. Rep. Frederica Wilson, he showed his hand.

Delay, deflect, lie, cover up…repeat until you seize complete control, escape or die. That’s the plan.

Probably, but perhaps when the meeting does occur he can just hand out coloring books and crayons.

The GOP is so deeply invested in Trump now that there’s no alternative to a collective leaping into the abyss. They are in survival mode. Their only chance of survival now is conversion of our democracy into a full on authoritarian state with the GOP as the only ruling party.

And a shit load of GOP voters, especially in red states, will happily embrace this eventuality.

I am not in a sanguine mood this morning.

“Twitter after White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters that as Democrats were
not requesting information about the informant, they should not expect an invite.”

I wish the press would make a bigger deal of these moments. Hammer it, every single time.
