Rod Rosenstein Defends Trump AG Barr As Mueller Report Looms | The Beat ...
Essentially he is saying that a duck isn't a duck and that :"We will tell you what you need to know about everything, so there's no need to look at the actual evidence, you can draw the correct conclusions just using what we tell you." Unfortunately we've heard that line before, it never ever is true. The only thing that happens if we take anyone's word for critical matters, from people appointed by, or otherwise beholden to the person in question, is that we learn too late that we have been screwed again. Sorry fellas, no one is going for it this time. Release the entire report or be forever suspected of covering up. Worse, if what you say is not borne out by the full report when it finally is released, you will all face some pretty serious consequences, unmitigated because of your slimy demeanor.

Donald Trump Floats Pardon For DHS Appointee To Follow His Order | The B...
Mueller could, very easily, have found collusion/ conspiracy. He did not do so because, he knew that impeachment is a political decision. Therefore, he did not want to be seen as injecting a bias into the fray. He intended to have his work product delivered to Congress so that they could arrive at their own conclusions themselves.
Wikileaks was a "cutout" used to conceal the fact that people, who believe they should not be seen talking with one another, can communicate through a proxy. We know that Trump's campaign did not want to be caught talking with the Russians directly. We know this because of their search for a "back channel", so they could speak without the government knowing about it.
The Trump campaign passed messages to Russia via wiki and the Russians answered back the same way. That means that they all had this guilty knowledge to conceal and so they all lied to Congress. Because they all knew they had done something they should not have done, and therefore hoped to conceal it.
There is also the matter of Trump's penchant to offer pardons if his appointees will violate the law. That is subornation of felony. I can't believe that it's legal to ask people to commit crimes and offer them protection from the consequences. Is there really nothing that can be done to a President who subornes felonies?

The Republicans who confirmed Barr assured us he was well qualified and would perform in an unbiased non-political manner befitting the Department's traditions and practices. Instead we now see his partianship in all its vainglory. Even as he stumbles, reels and staggers along unable to produce a coherent legal argument for what he is doing, he insists on doing it anyway. That is, obstructing justice by needlessly and illegally blocking Congressional oversight into what could very well be the worst national crime in history of America. We can only hope there are penalties in the offing for what Barr is doing.

So Wikileaks is or was what's known in spycraft as a"cutout" to be used when two or more people cannot be discovered to be in touch with one another. There was so much back and fourth with Russia, Wiki and the Trump campaign that , if you take the three as working together there certainly was collusion. Trump is toast but, Pence has to go first. Brace for President Pelosi! Wheeee.

Steve has lost his grip on reality. He will make trouble for the Pope for a while, but the forces that will be marshalled against him will become overwhelming. It couldn't happen to a worse guy. Bye bye Bannon bye bye!
Coupon-Cutting Congresswoman Stumps Big Bank CEO | The Last Word | MSNBC
He could have suggested that his employees follow what the Wal-Mart workers did to cover their pay short falls; namely apply for public assistance. Apparently our coupon cutting congresswoman is unaware of how difficult it is to live on a peddling 31 million dollars a year. Let me tell you, it means having less than 3 upstairs maids at each of your mansions and constraining the grounds keepers to work with a skeletal crew. Believe me it's not as easy as people missing meals, seem to think it is. (Sarcasm off)
William Barr Scrambles To Rewind 'Spying' Conspiracy Theory Embrace | Ra...
Well, now we know that improper surveillance did occur during the 2016 campaign, but it was the Russians working with the Trump campaign that was doing the dirty. Meanwhile Barr (my auto correct software made an interesting suggestion when I attempted to type Barr's name, it suggested the more appropriate "Barf" hahaha). is spinning and reeling, staggering and stumbling over his own words, gives me the high degree of confidence I need to proclaim him a useful idiot in total subservience to the unindicted criminal who appointed him, in a desperate attempt to obstruct justice in yet another way.

It's all fun and games with these unqualified appointments, that is, until these agencies are unable to perform their assigned tasks. The loss of expertise at the State Department will begin to show up in failed military and diplomatic missions. Because the CIA and the diplomatic Corp use State Department expertise routinely in their work. While syncopants muddle through at Justice, people who rely on the department's stability to inform their, most consequential decisions, now have a "rubrics cube" to deal with. They will throw up their hands and cross their fingers. Expect court case loads to so swamp the courts they will become irrelevant in settling matters. We are about to get a very exciting society. I sincerely doubt anyone is going to enjoy the ride.
But Trump supporters never gave such matters much thought. I kinda think they are about to get the worst of it, because they don't think clearly. They will not have an orderly society to protect them from the savage rack of reason.

Joe: William Barr Knows Spying Claims Were Reckless | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Does anyone really expect this this crooked man with a twisted mind to have anything intelligent to say? He speaks like a kid in high school, without any of the weight of authority upon his shoulders. Half baked theories and purposely misinterpreted rules, believing that gives him the rights or the cause to do whatever he wants to imagine them to. The guy and his mishapened views of the law make him dangerous. But his idea that only he can know or judge for everyone else is decidedly stupid beyond belief in the face of the National interests at stake here.

Trump repeats claim he won't release his tax returns
The lie count just keeps rising as fast as the President keeps talking. How anyone can find the gall to serve in his administration is beyond me, but we know there are people who just don't understand the American way, even if they want to call themselves Patriots.
Presidential Lawlessness | All In | MSNBC
Trump thinks courts decide cases by either spinning bottles or wheels or throwing dice and tossing coins. If you are always doing things that are illegal then you should expect the courts to always rule against you. It's that simple but Trump doesn't get it, he thinks that even if he's wrong, the courts should rule in his favor sometimes. He Don need no steenkin evidence! Hahaha
Senator Worries President Donald Trump Won't Follow Rule Of Law In Futur...
Time for Congress to start removing some Presidential powers! I would like to see nominations require a few minority votes to pass. So that one party will have difficulty putting the worse candidates in the office. Most especially with Justice Department appointees and Supreme Court Justices. No more Kavanaugh's, Clarence Thomas's and the like. If they are so polarized that they can't get together then, so be it, the position goes empty until they can get together. Under the present system we're luck we didn't get Hitler for Attorney General or Mussolini on the USSC. ( If you catch my drift)

Of course Trump and has to be some mistake",base like separations as a deterrent, because they are monsters. Normal people don't see monsters when they look at them, because: " there has to be some mistake." The idea that someone could enjoy or even tolerate such ideas is just to incredible to be believed, so; like people watching a movie, credulity is suspended. In movies we ignore reality so we can enjoy the show. In politics we ignore reality so we can feel comfortable.

Barr has already destroyed his own credibility and therefore any confidence anyone could have had in him. He appears to be unaware of this fact and doesn't realize how bad things will be for him, when what he has been trying to hide is uncovered. Of course Trump will be the first one to toss him onto the ever growing trash heap of broken careers of former syncopants who found themselves unable to serve this insane lying master.

We have very serious questions about this President and his far flung business deals. Is he really as wealthy as he claims to be? Or, is he merely being propped up by some foreign power? We already know, from previous reports (Rachel Maddow April 7th or 8th) that Trump has done business with a terrorist organization. The Iranian Republican Guard or some such. How much more is there to his involvement with Russia? We really need to know more because of the strange way he has acted and is continuing to act.

The syncopantic Mr. Barr needs to check himself. This is Congress he's speaking to, not some child asking for more cookies. This is the hot cauldron of politics, the leading edge of the peoples need to know, so that they can have continued confidence in the rubric of " self governing".
If Barr wants to put himself between the President and the peoples right to know the answers to the questions that, if not answered, will drain the entire government of its powers, then he needs to be aware of the terrible personal cost the nation will demand be extracted from him. This is no school yard exercise, this is deadly serious politics at it highest most critical function.

You must see their historical records. If they deny you a look at their records you need to dismiss them. There is only one excuse for secrecy and that is that you are about to be cheated.
Former Fox News reporter will now testify to Congress despite nondisclosure agreement with network
Mar 15, 2019 2:06pm Eastern Daylight Time by Jen Hayden, Daily Kos Staff
Comment large86

Appearing on MSNBC’s The Beat with Ari Melber, attorney Nancy Erika Smith suggested Congress should call her client, former Fox News reporter Diane Falzone, to testify about the circumstances in which Falzone’s 2016 reporting about Donald Trump having an affair with adult film actress Stormy Daniels was shot down and canned. The decision to shelve the story couldn’t have come at a better time for Trump, who was dealing with negative press from the Access Hollywood recording. Like the National Enquirer’s efforts to “catch and kill” negative Trump stories and then bury them behind nondisclosure agreements, Smith suggested the efforts to suppress this negative Trump story could also amount to undisclosed campaign contributions.
Although former Fox News editor Ken LaCorte says he killed the story because it “wasn’t publishable,” Falzone has been prevented from telling her side of the story because of a nondisclosure agreement she signed as part of an unrelated discrimination settlement with Fox News. Falzone and her attorney have been publicly asking for Fox News to release her from that portion of the NDA so they can speak freely.

President Donald Trump Consolidates Power With Staff Of 'Acting' Officia...
So it is beginning to appear to me that; Putin and staff, have conducted a serious study on how to dismantle the American democracy. Trump is simply following the playbook that Putin has somehow given him. Possibly via some back channel they have created. Because of Trump's businesses, particularly his hotel and real estate holdings, the"security wall" around him is Swiss cheese. So there are plenty of opportunities to pass him instructions of what to do next.
In any event, dismantling the government is exactly what he appears to be succeeding at, dispite the feeble and easily hamstrung efforts to check him. He still has the Republican party to blindly assist him in his mission to make a dictatorship out of our nation. Republicans are unwilling to look at where their partisanship is taking the nation and they show, few if any, signs that they will abandon the march towards our destruction, before it becomes too late to turn back.

Trump accuses Mueller's team of "illegally leaking" to media
First of all no grand jury considerations can be allowed to stand in the way of full disclosure! The level of government confidence that is in the offing, precludes anything less than full release, because the Attorney General has compromised his own credibility by attempting to minimize the Special Prosecutors finfings and he has only released fragments of sentences, from the report, in what appears to be part of his effort to claim exoneration for his master. It is his own failed and suspect efforts that have made it more than doubly necessary to have the entire report. The people's confidence in government itself is now at stake.

Anderson Cooper debunks Trump's tax return claims
Of course, the fact that Trump is a bald faced liar, means that nothing he claims can be trusted. Which is more than enough reason for Congress to need to see his tax returns among other things, in light of some of the startling and adverse decisions he has made against highly valued government agency advice. These decisions he has made have produced the expected negative results. So, yeah, it's long overdue to look at the potential reasons Trump may have rejected expert advice on matters of foreign policy, where he has no credentials to boot.

Now he's beginning to look like a fool. 😆 In the eyes of his followers, of course. Everyone else, worldwide, has long ago marked him as a fool and even countries run by dictators, thank their lucky stars that he isn't one with them. Of course, he's so easily played, dictators realize they would be remiss not to take some advantage of him. Foreign intelligence services are racing to get golf memberships and rent suites at Mar-a-Lago, where they can by pass the Secret Service and usual Presidential protections, by scheduling weddings that Donald likes to crash. When asked if foreign intelligence agencies might plan to assinate Trump, they shrink in horror from the idea. Saying that Donald has been so good for them, they would not allow anyone to ruin their immense good fortune to have him in office. Where it use to require a highly skilled and trained apparatus to pry loose America's secrets, they are now routinely handed over in tweets. Hahaha. We can only imagine that his supporters love communism.
