How are they going to find the vigilantes?

You think they care? They'll shoot anyone they want to.

Trump better take a deep breath before tweeting about this development. This whole week has been defined by self inflicted wounds that easily could have been avoided with a little restraint. It’s time to start a new winning streak because fighting with the DOJ in the media is a losing proposition

What does Prez Trump’s tweeting have to do with this? Are you suggesting that if he hadn’t tweeted McCabe would have been indicted?

[EODGUY]

Same here....I had to hit my weight room to blow off steam.

[Gene Eric]

If Barr is playing games because of Trump’s Tweets, then he should be fired. And if responsibility is a concern, Barr shouldn’t be bitching to the World about his petty, irrelevant annoyances.

Many share your concerns, but I see things differently.

[MayflowerMadam]

Barr needs to go and be replaced with Sekulow or diGenova. DiGenova is a blowhard, but I think he’d do the job. Get a new guy in there ASAP in case we lose the Senate in November so Trump can get confirmation.

[plain talk]

“Trump better take a deep breath before tweeting about this development. “

Why? Trump is just a private citizen expressing his views. It’s not like he is the President of the United States or something.

[Gene Eric]

Seems like Barr wants to go

[MayflowerMadam]

“So this means the special investigator Durham has no meaning whatsoever?”

Yes.

[JoSixChip]

Get a new guy in there ASAP in case we lose the Senate in November so Trump can get confirmation.

mcconnell is never going to confirm someone who will get the job done. mcconnel is doing to Trump and his supporters exactly what he did to the Tea Party.

[SkyPilot]

From the Washington Post a few minutes ago:

A White House official said Trump was not given a head’s up and was upset, and that White House lawyers moved to calm the president. The official said Trump “believes very strongly that action should be taken.”

[DoughtyOne]

They don’t have to find you.

They just start using the same tactics against your politicians.

[central_va]

Durham is a “special” investigator, short bus kind of “special”.

[rockinqsranch]

Exactly.

[M Kehoe]

No plea deal? No admission of guilt? No naming of names, providing documents, nothing?

No matter, I and others haven’t trusted the DOJ or FBI for over 30 years.

[TBP]

No justice.

[EBH]

disappointment runs deep

[ScottinVA]

“Why should The People assume any part of the Department Of Justice is legitimate? Oughtn’t there be an uprising?”

Oh, the power structure is quite willing to incarcerate commoners. The elites are a different story.

[itsahoot]

It lasts until the next significant economic crisis.

Cronovirus may hasten our demise.

[CincyRichieRich]

PDJT has full right to Tweet about FBI/DOJ/CIA corruption now...phasers on full power now.

[CincyRichieRich]

So this means the special investigator Durham has no meaning whatsoever?
