I don’t want to put the time or effort into trying to interpret “Q” so I just don’t follow.

I can’t figure out RR. Part of me hates him and thinks he’s as smarmy as Deep Stroke. Part of me thinks he MAY have thought that a counterintel vs. Russia really needed to be done, but that the FBI was too corrupt to do it. Institutionally, I don’t blame him for not giving everything to Congress, which leaks like a sieve. Why should he? They hold no power over him at all.

This of course is a direct result of Congress rolling over for Zero for eight years. Once power like that is given up, it can’t be reclaimed. Part of it is Congress’s ceding the power of the purse through Continuing Resolutions. If they had a normal budget process, they already could have had all DOJ budget lines zeroed out until they had all the docs they wanted. But with a CR, their only weapon is a full-scale government shutdown which they do not have the will or courage to do, even if they were united on DOJ producing this stuff (which they aren’t).

I don’t trust Mulehead, don’t think he’s a “white hat,” but he may have no choice. Trump simply has done nothing wrong, and Cankles & the DemoKKKrats have. I think right now he’s doing everything he can to “get Russia” WITHOUT involving Cankles or the DNC. We’ll see how long he can do that, or if he can do it at all.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

That’s a paradox, isn’t it? Too much information? Hundreds of millions of people all over the world taking it in with some level of belief? Q has become its own branch of the alt-Trump-media, and a very important one.

I cannot follow it blow-by-blow either; and definitely have no time for the chans. But a number of extremely capable Freepers do all this for us. A most serviceable and amusing summary is Bagster’s “Oracle”, published in the Q thread daily (when he can keep out of mod-jail).

You make a great point about the CRs. Congress has Zero power to compel these days in their investigations, because they cannot de-fund FBI, DOJ or anything else for that matter. They’ve really gotten their tit in the wringer with these CRs, and can’t get it out.

This of course is a direct result of Congress rolling over for Zero for eight years.

Actually, its a direct result of Clinton IT aide Bryan Pagliano ignoring two Congressional subpoenas and AG Sessions doing absolutely nothing about it.

Obama era AGs always claimed executive privilege, but here its Trump's own AG doing the blocking.

Thanks for your take. Good to think about.

“This of course is a direct result of Congress rolling over for Zero for eight years. Once power like that is given up, it can’t be reclaimed.” So true.

With all due respect, LS, are you sure about this one? Wouldn't the same dynamic of "government shutdown" be an option for during every stage of normal budgetary process? If either the House, Senate, reconciliation. or Executive refused to pass a budget, wouldn't the government "shut down?"

In that respect, there isn't a difference between running the budget via continuing resolutions or formal budgets. Or am I wrong?

Also, if you don't have time to interpret Q, there are plenty of people that do and you can read up on them in your spare time.

We (and Trump/Q) could sure use somebody like you on the team. You do want to be on the right side of this thing when the undeniable truth comes out. Again, with all due respect, goodman.

I don’t think meuller has any choice at this point. He just Indicted 13 Russians which he can’t prosecute. He has cleared Trump and all Americans. Not sure where RR fits in. Meuller is dirty but compromised. He may be helping end his entire investigation of Trump.

The release of all documents is the key. Never going to happen. They will save Obama and Clinton at all costs. Trump will declassify the rest and all will be in the public arena. Trump can destroy the Libs right now. Waiting for the election is not going to help. Too much can go wrong by Nov.

The heart of the matter, why our Republic is weakening, and why The current conflict is becoming the bureaucracy (DS) vs the people of the United States. Without representation the people may take the conflict directly into their own hands - a dangerous situation.
