DOJ Initial Russia Hearings

[NM11046]

Please God, let Trump do a press conference later today!  

Your wish is granted:

Your wish is granted:

That is what I was referring to.  But there is a big difference between Trumps saying "I may do something" and the WH announcing a press conference.

I'd like one D to admit there was a problem with Mueller assembling a team of Ds to investigate the opposing President shortly after his friend was fired (and Trump himself turning down Mueller for a top job).   

  

And the bag of Ds found NOTHING.

That is certainly Trump's version of the matter.

But the fact that perhaps Mueller is an apolitical lifelong Republican and those who comprised his team were selected not with regard for their partisan leanings but their expertise at their jobs. In fact, any time anyone working on that team (Think Strzok or Page or even McCabe, who was merely at the FBI) even gave the apperance of bias, they were summarily dismissed to maintain objectivity.

I realize the fact that this was an objective, non-partisan investigation full of competent professionals and not a deep-state coup is inconvenient for the president and his men.

Curious, too, that you know what's actually in the report. Unless you're just taking Trump's word for it at face value, which I wouldn't recommend - he's not a very trustworthy source, honestly.

Also, for those who didn't know, this isn't the first time Barr has used his position as AG to protect the president who appointed him.

He did it for H.W. Bush with Iran-Contra, too.

It appears the guy has a bit of a history of being a lackey who puts his party first.

This whole dog-and-pony show is designed to control the narrative of this report.

Who are all these Ds you speak of?

 

[commando]

Who are all these Ds you speak of?

i noticed that he didn't says democrats or dems....wonder if he was referring to something else using "bag of ds"?

 

[BigRedBuster]

i noticed that he didn't says democrats or dems....wonder if he was referring to something else using just "ds"?

Detectives???  

:dunno

Barr is currently shaping the crap out of it. What a sham.

 

[Whistlebritches]

If they had actually found NOTHING the full report minus grand jury information would have been released to the congressional judicial committees 10 days ago and we wouldn't be having this dog and pony show this morning.

 

[BigRedBuster]

Barr is currently shaping the crap out of it. What a sham.

If what he says is true, it will be seen soon enough and everyone needs to move on.

If what he says is not true, it will be seen soon enough and everyone can make their judgements on how to react.

To clarify that:

This press conference is so much...

None of how this is being handled is orthodox.
