Tapper: This clue shows Trump's tirade wasn't spontaneous
Stormy Daniels has 126 thousand dollars that says Mr. Trump does do cover ups. Not only did he have a lawyer, hired specifically for the purpose of doing coverups, he also had a publisher help him do coverups. Withholding his tax returns is a cover up. Manafort, Jared Kushner, Alex Jones, Bannon, Giuliani, Scaramucci, Sanders and others all engaged in covering up for Trump at his behest. So yeah, he does do cover ups.

Talk, talk, talk, meanwhile we have a lunatic for a President who is using real political powers of his office to tear down the very fabric of America. The values of the Justice department are coming into question, the Supreme Court is suspected of partisan political weight. Now the 17 intelligence agencies are coming under a cloud as a proven and demonstrated liar and sycophant is being given ultimate power over all things classified. All that can be done so far as we can see is to wait for him to lose the vote. Trouble is, he can't be impeached because the Republicans, who hold the Senate, will not allow it. By the time we get rid of him we may not have a country we can manage. Remember, it's one thing to have a rule of law, it's another thing entirely to abide by it. Dictators all have laws for the people to abide by, while they hold themselves and their cohorts above it. Hardly a wonder then, that paranoia sets in so easily and causes so many things to change dramatically from day to day.

Trump defends decision to give Barr unprecedented powers
To make matters even worse is that, with his new found blanket authorization to look at any and all things Russian, there's no telling where his fishing expedition will carry him. Even things that have no connection to the start of investigations in to Trump/Russia, may be seen and stick in Barr's memory, to be casually and carelessly remarked on later, for a wide variety of reasons. Which is why people have to qualify to even see such sensitive material. For sure, no proven and brazen liar would qualify to view such intelligence.

President Donald Trump Fails To Flip The Table On Nancy Pelosi | Deadlin...
Now the Presidents desperate attempt to stir up new controversy is turning to placing national intelligence in the hands of an unqualified syncopantic liar. The intelligence sector is not a thing to be played with for political purposes. There are real lives on the line, both our agents and the lives of those who have taken the risks to cooperate with them. The release of something that Barr may see as useful, could easily contain clues that foreign intelligence agencies can use to figure out who is who and where. The threat of intelligence falling into unqualified hands has to be any agents or cooperators worst nightmare, since it could result in the death or imprisonment of the agent, cooperator and his family for life. This has to paralyse the entire intelligence community and has to impact their ability to obtain cooperation. The Valerie Plame debacle was a terrible hit the community took, now it's potentially happening again, who will trust us again?
When Bush outed Valerie Plame, the entire apparatus she had built, to monitor nuclear materials around the globe, had to be shuttered, agents quickly withdrawn from the field and assets and cooperators, notified, warned and in some cases evacuated. Not everyone was able to escape, but we won't be told about those who did get caught. It was a terrible mess and the intelligence community worldwide was left wondering if they could continue to cooperate with the US. Now there's the threat of it happening again, no one can rest easy.

I have a cousin who is suffering from the wounds of that war in Viet Nam. Trump was buying his out while kids were running to Canada and others were simply going because life had nothing better to offer. Blacks were safer in Viet Nam than they were in their own neighborhoods. Yet Trump would hold himself out as some mega patriot. Some one should raise the issue when they get him on the air: "What did you do in the war daddy?" Let's hear his patriotic spew!

They are right that impeachment is a political tool, but that means it must be handled skillfully by a skilled politician. Speaker did not become speaker by being unskilled. She had a bevy of highly skilled competition for the post. She has proven, time and again, that her political judgement and skills are spot on, so with that in mind, I can easily endorse her position. Most especially since impeachment can happen anytime in the allotted time, there's no need to rush and risk a stumble.
On the other hand, something must be done immediately, to prevent Mr. Barr from taking over the powers to access and declassify US intelligence. I'm almost certain that his performance to date, would rule him out for obtaining clearances.

This is very serious, Barr is not qualified to handle classified intelligence of the most sensitive nature. In his effort to Kafka America there is no way to know how much damage he will do, until it is done and can't be undone.
CIA agents, collaborators etc., around the world are watching this in horror, remembering how Valarie Plame was outed for political reasons, endangering a whole slew of people worldwide. My guess is that this has paralyzed the entire U.S. Intelligence apparatus. The life and death of the agencies operatives and cooperators has been, effectively, placed in the hands of baboons. Think of it as being in the middle of a rope bridge when, where only one end was burning, now the other end is set on fire. It's time to stop everything and run for your life.

Trumps phony investigation will only discover that it was his own actions that caused the Mueller investigation to happen, because until he and his administration began lying about their Russian contacts and meetings, the only thing on the table was an investigation into Russia's efforts to interfere in the election. True, Trump and his campaign kept appearing in the normal course of tracking the Russians and that was suspicious. But those suspicions escalated when they all began lying, under oath, about it to the Congress.

Special counsel's team hesitant about Mueller testifying publicly
The time for deals with Barr has passed. He has disrespected the Congress with his lies and flippant remarks addressed to The Speaker of the House of Representatives, saying "Have you brought your handcuffs?" As serious as these matters are, as important as the Constitutional crisis he and this President has caused by flagrant resistance to Congressional oversight, an example/demonstration of Congressional power is in order.
Rep. Eric Swalwell: ‘I'm Pissed Off’ At President Trump Defying Rule Of ...
One of the biggest components in America's "greatness" is in our foreign policy. Our foreign policy is not making any sense, in light of our troubles here at home. Friends and Foe alike, are either confused about what the future holds for any policy/agreements they may have or are considering, meanwhile our enemies are basking in the glow of our falling status and seeking every advantage that has become available. Look how the Russians are now feeding profits into the hands of our Senate leader. It reminds me of how Jack Abramoff was feeding profits from his Indian casino shakedowns into the hands of Tom DeLay. So, you'll have to forgive me if I am smelling the stench of corruption rising again from the Republican Party. They certainly have a very poor track record of guarding against their party members engaging in corrupt practices. Is that really the party they want to be? Because this time it means selling the country out to Russia.

Yet Sanders says Congress may not be able to understand Trumps taxes, hahaha, such a silly administration offering nothing but incompetence and foolishness, trying to pass this nonsense off as meaningful matters. It is really embarrassing on the world stage. On the national stage it's merely infuriating. Barr acts like a person would act, if Trump had film of him making out with corpses. He exhibits a carelessness that is simply fantastic and he brazenly heckles the United States Speaker of the House of Representatives, as if she were someone he simply met on the street. Congress needs to come crashing down on him for this premeditated and egregious perjury.

Elizabeth Warren is right in her economic argument against Fox, but this is not an economic quest. It is a political quest to bring people together and that can't be done by either being thin skinned or by separating people, because they only watch Fox. So, in this case Mayor Pete has it on point.
