Ryan Goodman at Just Security reminds us that perjurer–Trump patsy Sessions is violating his promise to recuse himself from all the Clinton investigation industry.

Their darling little mind-control shop, Cambridge Analytica, was thrown off Facebook.

Board whichever one of their yachts they’re fleeing on, and march them out in handcuffs: The New York Times details Analytica’s criminal activities.

McCabe finally fights back.

“I am being singled out and treated this way because of the role I played, the actions I took, and the events I witnessed in the aftermath of the firing of James Comey. The release of this report was accelerated only after my testimony to the House Intelligence Committee revealed that I would corroborate former Director Comey’s accounts of his discussions with the President. The OIG’s focus on me and this report became a part of an unprecedented effort by the Administration, driven by the President himself, to remove me from my position, destroy my reputation, and possibly strip me of a pension that I worked 21 years to earn.”

The red line has been crossed. Trump is rampaging over American democracy. The equally traitorous GOP will do whatever it can to help.

Will the Democrats do anything?

So far, it seems only Rep. Swalwell is willing, without quibble or caveat, to call this out for what it is.

in order to stock it with maniac extremists like John Bolton, who will help to launch the attacks against North Korea and Iran that Trump believes he needs to fend off Mueller’s investigation and to prevail in the midterms.

Will the Dems fall into supine enabling, the way they did for GW Bush in 2001/2002?

Larry Kudlow on the 11th Hour: The rich “have no need to steal or engage in corruption” because “they know how to achieve goals and convince skeptics that good deals can be made to the benefit of both sides.”

His stand-up routines do have all the exquisitely deft high-comedic finesse of a Phyllis Diller–except that she was funny.

The idea that they could was just another propaganda balloon they’d floated.

The tax cuts are massively uinfair and massive unpopular.

They’re something you run away from on the campaign trail, not something you boast about.

We will see if the Dems hammer home to the electorate how dreadful the tax cuts really are.

It’s a competitive job market out there.

So perhaps when Liz Cheney volunteers to be waterboarded, Gina Haspel should step up for the honor.

At this point, the GOP must be razed to the ground and salt strewn to ensure that there is no recrudescence.

Four traitorous GOP senators–yup, Graham, Grassley, Cornyn, and North Carolina’s very own Thom Tillis, are asking for a second special counsel  to investigate the DOJ for some preposterous, jury-rigged reasons that would stand up only in the court of Fox “News.”

It’s very interesting how any contact with Trump causes people to unmask themselves, to shed any vestige of camouflage that would prevent us from seeing what unscrupulous shits they really are.

that Nancy Pelosi’s utility as lead House Democrat has come to an end.

But for now, she is still representing the party, and Democrats have got to defend her against the GOP’s cartoonish–but effective if left unchallenged–stigmatization.
