Speaker Ryan’s latest scam is muscling behind the Kafka-esque corruption of Devin Nunes’s Trumped-up diversionary investigations.
The entire GOP caucus is now complicit in gaming our judicial system, and if the DOJ cannot stand up for American jurisprudence it is time to question whether Republicans Rosenstein and Wray are capable of executing their duties.
has been rapturously received for too long by the liberal commentariat as a sign of spiritual grace.
When he told Prince Harry that he felt “serene” on Trump’s Inauguration Day, I could only marvel at the contrast to the degree of terror millions of Americans were experiencing watching the very same occasion.
Their apocalyptic agenda is driven by plain old-fashioned greed.
Jacob Sugarman at Alternet cites Mercer expert Jane Mayer and others about the real reason the billionaires cashiered Bannon.
Start a daily log for public consumption about what their GOP counterparts on the relevant committees are doing to sabotage their respective House and Senate investigations.
That’s what the GOP Congressional leaders and committee heads have turned themselves into, and come election time, the Dems must not shrink from implicating their betrayal of this country in every way possible–from policy to legislation to active obstruction of justice and treasonous collusion to install Trump as dictator.
This is war, and I don’t want couched, polite, wistfully distressed rhetoric from the Dems–I want fighting words.
In a move worthy of a George Orwell translation of Alice in Wonderland, the GOP Senate recommends criminal charges against Christopher Steele for the infraction of telling the truth about Herr Trump.
Senators Lindsay Graham and Charles Grassley, who have signed their names to this scandalous inculpation, are but the thin edge of the wedge: the GOP is committing treason at the highest levels.
The constitutional crisis is here. America cannot continue to tolerate this GOP.
Oooh, the Mercers are so angry at their courtier Steve Bannon, and perhaps they might even decide a shake up is due at the Breitbart hate site!
Could it be that Bannon has already been flipped by Mueller, as Richard Painter suggests to Ed Pilkington of the Guardian, and is he peeling the varnish from the Mercers’s flotilla of yachts?
His self-righteous moralistic hypocrisy aside, Sen. Sasse is a housebroken version of Trump.
Amamda Marcotte at Salon makes clear that “Sasse likes to hear himself talk, no doubt about it, but when it actually comes to taking action, either to stop Trump or to stand up for facts, he is less than worthless. . . Sasse is a huge proponent of scientific misinformation and even conspiracy theories.”
Today’s op-ed in the Times by GPS Fusion’s cofounders provides point-blank proof that the GOP Congressional leadership and top partisan hacks like Sen. Grassley have been working overtime to cover up the crimes of White House, Inc.
Sen. McConnell’s obstruction of justice–coming on the heels of his theft of a Supreme Court seat–began in the summer of 2016, when he straight-armed Obama’s intention to inform the American public what Trump was getting it in for.
McConnell got an assist from Comey, who is indeed compromised, although not in the way that the Trump-GOP-Fox axis of subversion says he is. I believe every single word that Comey has said about Trump’s thoroughly treasonous attempts to coopt him.
Obama, of course, caved.
And McConnell continues to be at liberty.
Always laugh when I see that tout behind a celebrity-journalistic fake interview with a movie star.
No one, of course, is more fake than Steve Bannon.
At Daily Kos, Mark Sumner makes the point that Bannon has no objection to treason–just thinks it should be better executed than Trump, Jr. did.
And Bannon also knows that his meal-ticket Breitbart is a sub-dubious electronic rag.
