Its a good as time as ever. Yes, our Psychopath-in-Chief has, obviously, learned a lesson after getting nailed for his Ukraine extortion scam last summer. America is fortunate to have judicious Republican Senators like Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Cory Gardner, Lindsey Graham, Mitch McConnell, and Rand Paul to protect us from such rampant venality in the Executive branch... 🥴 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be Trump wants him quiet until the end of the year though. Dangle a pardon so his co-conspirator keeps his mouth shut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart moves come in cultural waves. Revamping the Manhattan skyline may have been Larry Silverstein's prerogative, but he had no right to demolish buildings with 3,000 people in them.

Its a good as time as ever. For the first time in history a Senator of the opposing party crossed the aisle to vote guilty. A half dozen GOP Senators admitted Trump was guilty. The new Quinnipiac poll shows Trump losing to Bernie and Biden by 8 points and Bloomberg by 9. Riding high...?

Yes, 4 !!! Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal ( former Federal Prosecutor and former Marine ) just said on CNN it is worse that Nixon's Watergate "Saturday Night Massacre." Trump is simply going bananas with his impeachment dismissal emboldened dictatorial will and his private attorney/lap dog William Barr is doing his bidding no matter how outrageous and unethical.

W. Niederhut Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Bill Barr never should have been confirmed as AG in the first place, by 53 (GOP) votes in the Senate. He has done nothing but cover up Trump's crimes and block access to all of the critical evidence -- including the un-redacted Mueller Report, Trump's tax returns, and the State, DOD, and OMB records relating to Ukraine-gate. Barr will be remembered by historians as an infamous, partisan scoundrel-- but he has already said that he doesn't care about what historians will write about him.

Joe Bauer Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 (edited) Barr really should be impeached. In many ways he's as bad as Nixon's A.G. John Mitchell. And Mitchell went to prison! Edited February 11, 2020 by Joe Bauer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
