Jonathan Turley skewers Nadler and the Dems.

[Steely Tom]

The Democrats play-act for the cameras.

Turley is one of the few lawyers who is cleared to handle TS/SCI/SAP cases. He represented the folks injured by chemicals at Area 51.

I see where he’s coming from because I’ve been there. It’s one of those hopefully rare occasions when a client rejects your legal advice and is determined to pursue a really stupid course of action not in the client’s best interest.

The Democrap Party has long-ceased their role as elected govt officials looking to better the lives of Americans.

They are, in word and deed, a vicious invading force waging war on, we, the peace-loving people.

Grabbing more and more power is the Democrap’s obsession.

[Jimmy The Snake]

Yup - This is all about stamping their feet in front of their propaganda machine called TV news to just spread FUD (fear uncertainty & doubt) to the masses and keep their base rabid

They know Impeachment is there only true remedy but won’t get thru the Senate and makes Trump look like the outsider regular guy persecuted by the big bad Fed govt. A they are out to get Trump, then they will come for you Joe Citizen that voters will identify with

I just find it insane to hold a man in contempt for obeying the Law.

We have fallen apart. the rule of Law is gone. Everything is a political trail by fire and elections have become meaningless w/ fraud and one group refusing to accpt the results.

[SMARTY]

That's because the MSM forgot what was newsworthy-a very long time ago!

They're all such whores that they will run ANYTHING at ANYTIME, JUST for attention.

So, like spoiled children... Liberal congress people act up continually, because they KNOW it will get attention.

Idiot voters think it's all real news... it's only Kabuki

TURLEY: House Judiciary Committee Chair Nadler has chosen to focus the contempt charge on the AG Barr's
unwillingness to release a tiny redacted fraction of the Mueller report, "the weakest possible contempt claim."
Turley warns that pursuing it will damage the House, not the administration.

House Democrats are seeking to hold America's chief law enforcement officer in contempt of Congress for declining to commit a crime. Bold strategy.

It doesn't get any more blunt than that.

Any member of Congress who votes to hold the U.S. Attorney General in contempt under these circumstances is a flaming @sshole.

[NonValueAdded]

So Turley is on record advising Congress that they were asking Barr to violate the law, potentially at the exoense of his nomination. Coercion? You betcha.

But Nadler and his cronies have gone a step beyond, citing Barr in contempt for not breaking the law. Blackmail, abuse of authotity under cor of law? Conspiracy to. Suborn a felony? There must be laws broken.

Ph, but Nadler would claim Privilege in that anything said in Congress is above the lae. Sweet irony, I say. Do it, Barr, press charges. Indict the Congressional basterds.

[jazusamo]

Well said! And it’s worded so that no one has trouble understanding it.

[JWNM]

The fact that Democrats are willing to risk as much as they are to stop AG Barr from investigating the investigation is indicative of pretty high stakes if the truth is known. Their efforts to obstruct him from investigating is are going to end up in scorched Earth.

Jonathan Turley’s existence tells us there is always hope - he's that big a blessing to a free country.
