Quite a sense of entitlement there.

Yet another reason to despise Trump: he has put me on the same side as Chuck Todd.

Had the FCC done this to Fox News twenty years ago, it would have saved us all a whole lot of trouble.

I’m sure Chuck will some how attribute this to Democrats in disarray.

This seems a two edged sword with one edge far bigger than the Todd side. But damn, is our president spiraling into madness? Heck, I know the answer, I am just talking to hear myself think.

Especially considering that fool has spent the last almost 12 years lying about Obama. Never mind the fact that the RNC in '12 put on an entire convention centered around taking an Obama quote completely out of context.

FFS. Trump is out of control. He is NOT a dictator no matter how much he and Barr want to make you think. Fk 'im. This is just more noise to distract from all the sht they are pullling.

Even with the longer clip, Todd’s point still stands. Barr made the claim, but he certainly didn’t make the case.

The “evidence” he presented there was, indeed, that he intended for his political side to be the winners writing history.

because it upheld the rule of law

Not the one that says Congress shall be given any requested tax return.

Barr lies as a matter of course.

Frankly, I haven’t been able to settle my stomach since I saw Bill Barf’s malicious little smirk as he said: “history’s written by the winners, so it largely depends on who’s writing the history”

I’d call it ironic if it wasn’t Trump, but this very tweet is compelling evidence that political motivation was at the heart of DOJ’s reversal on Flynn.

Nom he’s trying to have Thought Police vis the FCC. I’m guessing real "Conservatives"should have trouble with getting rid of freedom of speech, since they claim to be constitutionalists.
