Well. No responses. I guess it sort of goes without saying.

The cover up seems to have been lead by the AG. That is a giant concern. He needs to leave by the end of the day, and we need an investigation to get rid of all the DOJ people who participated sooner than later.

Now it’s just a question of which of them is willing to avoid the worst yet to come.

I can’t believe how obvious and brazen it was. I guess Barr figured the power of the presidency protected him, and Trump figured the DOJ protected him, and Giuliani just danced around on the precipice like Gollum with the Ring because he’s too addled to even have a sense of danger.

We’ll never know, but I’d like to know if & how many times members of the crime troupe told dotard not to do this. Just curious.

There is literally nobody left to do that, not that there were all that many to start. Today, they are nothing more than a cabal of sycophants.

He was never capable of telling right from wrong and now he’s in dementia. You can tell him an infinite number of times not to do it, and he’ll still do it. So they tried to clean up after him in a way that’s illegal and here we are.

In which case, IF TRUE, our country…is dying.
Yes? No?
trump is also oppositional — You only tell him NOT to do something if you actually want him TO DO it. I don’t think this applies to Putin though. And maybe Hannity

Highly unlikely Barr will ever leave under his own volition. He is of the same mold as Cheney the Dick: insufferably arrogant, proudly authoritarian and disdainful of any oversight.

You are probably right, but unlike Cheney, there is every likelihood that Barr is going to end up wearing an Orange jumpsuit.

Well, you know, somehow you look at a guy who’s horrifyingly deformed both physically and morally and yet there’s an antic quality to him as well and the Gollum comparison comes to mind without much pondering necessary.
