But I thought he’s the most transparent president in history?

You misspelled “translegal”…

I do. Even if you count each separate charge as an “indictment,” and even if you include “campaign people and hangers-on” as part of the “administration,” you still don’t get to 215 criminal indictments for Trump.

Just goes to show how slick Obama was. Nobody could catch him on anything.

And accuracy of the figures notwithstanding, zero indictments for the Obama administration is totally believable.

Moot? Nope. They can still investigate and expose. Let the whole world know the extent of the corruption, regardless of the state of the election. And if the results look bad for BLOTUS IMPOTUS, then impeach the motherfucker again! If he stonewalls through beyond January 3rd, then publish the results. If the next administration is headed up by POTUS Biden, then hand it off to the new AG. Skewer. Skewer. Skewer. Turn up the fire, but don’t rotate the spit. Let him burn.

Come on, the Clinton’s had to give him something for another shot at the Presidency.
And you know George. He’s been charged with what?

There is this for a source…of relative and absolute presidential corruption. Recall the GHW Bush was VEEP during the Reagan years and wound up (perhaps?) protecting himself by being the font of pardoning power for Weinberger, et. al. for Iran-Contra misdeeds. Recall, too, that the Clinton Admin indictment leveled at Mike Espy was a ream job under the Special Prosecutor law of the time. Espy was acquitted on all 30 spurious charges brought against him. Henry Cisneros in the Clinton years took a plea deal for lying to the FBI, not about having the mistress but on how much he paid her. Really, is there any question about who swims in the swamp?

Exactly. The absence of charges is almost total proof of just how corrupt they are, that they get away with all of it.

It’s good to see the Dems dispiriting the RNCQRump gab fest. They wouldn’t normally but since the Rumpians did so last week during the DNC convention, why not. This isn’t business as usual in America.

This chart appears to be wildly incorrect and is being promoted by at least one obvious heighten-the-contradictions Middle Eastern twitter troll account (“Bibi Spielberg,” and no, I’m not gonna link to it).

Well, most of us here see right through him…

Exactly. Meadows knows that lack of evidence of wrongdoing proves he was guilty.

The House will never get a thing. The Trumps will tell them to take their contempt citation and shove it.

I fully accept your amendment!

So much winning.

So will Jared be treated separately?

Good, the House needs to continue on all fronts in order to prep impeachment 2.0 just in case. If Trump “wins” the election he absolutely needs to be removed.
