Former FBI lawyer Lisa Page, who’s become the face of the “deep state” for conservative conspiracists like President Trump, criticized Attorney General Bill Barr and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Tuesday night for not defending career employees against Trump attacks.
Bingo. The craven enablers. No decent public servant gives a venal buffoon like Trump a position of incomparable power or sustains him in it. It’s inexcusable and history will not be kind.
Love the fact that she is speaking out and fighting back.
People get angrier (the righteous, positive-feeling kind**) when the going gets better. FDR knew that feeling well in WWII.
Team Trump loves to circle the wagons, spew Roy Cohn talking points and count on weakness from our side.
They cannot be further from the Truth.
** “HUH??? They did this to ME???”
I’m just waiting for Trump’s next Nuremberg Rally when he takes the metal balls out of his pocket and screams about Nancy stealing the strawberries!
Too bad it’s winter time because I thought that throwing, dumping rotten strawberries at Trump, at Trump events, and Republican’s state offices would be kind of fun. Strawberries are the green form of protest, they’re biodegradable.
What I learned last night was that it was a DoJ spokesperson who invited reporters to come read the personal texts between Lisa and Peter, while an investigation was still on going. So very Trumpian.
Everyone in Trump’s orbit considers all of us,not just career employees, beneath them.
You will only be looked upon favorably if you always say “Yes Mister Donnie”.
Barr and Pompeo would defend staff, but they fear being sent to the cornfield.
G-d bless her. What’s left for her? They’ve ruined her career, her reputation.
As someone once famously said, ‘What have you got to lose?’
It might happen sooner than you think!
He has a rally tonight in Battle Creek Michigan
“Nevertheless, she persisted.”
“Too bad it’s winter time because I thought that throwing, dumping rotten strawberries at Trump, at Trump events, and Republican’s state offices would be kind of fun.”
Not to worry. Strawberries are a winter crop. The fields were planted here (Plant City, FL) in late October and the first harvests are being picked this week.
ETA: This is from 2016. Strawberries were planted late October.
With Trump, everyone, including the average citizen, is merely furniture in the room. He is a narcissist to the core. When he doesn’t like the furniture, he will abuse it and toss it out without a care. And he has shown again with his onstage antics concerning Page, that he views women as even lower.
He is willing to hurt someone purposefully and create pain for the fun of it. He has no business leading people as well as being loose in the population.
But aren’t Barr and Pompeo also attacking federal employees along with the Mango Mussolini?
What better place for a cereal liar to appear?
I gotta tell ya, seeing the women who’ve been kicking ass for the past few months makes me damn proud to be a woman.
Strawberries are also safe for dogs to eat. As the mother of two beagles, I have to pay attention to what dogs eat. Beagles will eat everything in sight even when their bellies are bursting. Crazy canines!
I hope some anti-Trumpers are there with some Impeachment Battle Flags. Some bugle calls would be cool too.
