Why the Justice Department Is Defiant?

Because they know our Republican-majority Congress does not have the b@lls to cut off their funding.

“You are clueless and have no knowledge of what the DOJ is actually doing”


OK, then enlighten us unwashed masses - what, EXACTLY, is the DOJ doing?

Trump should direct the DoJ to turn over the identified documents by 1:00 PM today.

At 1:01 PM today, US Marshals should frog-march Sessions and Rosenstein out of the DoJ building and into a waiting paddy wagon.”

Exactly what I was thinking. This has come down to a publicity war between Trump as President and the DOJ. Trump should state there will be transparency in his administration. And then give the documents to the members of Congress already approved for the highest secrecy status for review and release—without redactions where appropriate.

Unfortunately more than a few progressives and Rino’s believe in a totally independent DOJ to keep the executive branch and Congressional foes in check per their beliefs. Worse still, the DOJ culture buys into it.


Never Trumpism gives bipartisan top cover to this nonsense. Where are the “true conservatives” in Congress? Totally MIA.

Nope. They know our Republican majority Congress SUPPORTS the DOJ obstruction of the MAGA agenda.

And if about a million or 2 million, armed with AR15s marched on DC, peacefully(as they most certainly would), I think a lot of this would start sorting this out. Be interesting to see what the DC cops and Capitol PD would do, when faced with that. Just a one slow stroll through OUR nations capitol.

BLM thought they were going to steamroll Bundy, until Patriots showed, with some of their own weaponry, took the high ground and that was that. And, lo and behold, Bundy then whoops their asses in court. Imagine that.

They are proceeding in a secret manner.

We know of an IG that will report very soon. We know that a prosecutor has been assigned to take over the IG results and prosecute

We know that there are criminal referrals from the congress that are apparently also assigned to the prosecutor.

Precisely how it is being done is not for you or me to know

It said the Republicans were alarmed by the intel community’s “tradecraft failings,” but they weren’t allowed to spell out the failings because of the level of classified material involved.

The House report said, “While the committee found that most ICA analysis held up to scrutiny, the investigation also identified significant intelligence tradecraft failings that undermine confidence in the JCA judgments regarding Russian President Vladimir Putin’s strategic objectives for disrupting the U.S. election.”

The report also noted that the complaints were “rooted in trying to damage President-elect Trump,” as leaks “increased dramatically” after the Nov. 8 election.

These days, I wonder if the only working option is martial law.
