They dont want the drug combo to work..Hannity last night was talking to Birx she still refused to say anything good about the drug combo..they are in line with big pharma, a cheap drug that can cure a virus is a doggy no no to them, but a vaccine that can make them MILLIONS is a winner

Here’s the running goal of media and nanzi.

Every single thing Trump does with people in the executive branch, is criticized and regarded as illegal.

Every personnel thing.

He has the power to do it, but they are trying to make it impossible for him and the executive branch to do its job.

This is the precedent they are setting.

The framers of our Constitution may have explicitly disallowed appointments, executive orders or new laws enacted during the time between an election and the new President/Congress taking office if they had realized how little some politicians care about the citizens of the country.

From the distinguished firm of "Howard, Howard and Fine."

Previously known as Horwitz, Horwitz, and Feinberg I think.

"..willing to speak truth to power and because he is so clearly afraid of strong oversight,” Schumer said in a statement."

"truth to power" the pelousi/schemer new and already worn out buzzword.

Trump can do anything he wants now and the dems and press stooges are not able to whip up any hysteria about it. The don’t want to distract the public from their ongoing panic orgy about the Wuhan plague and Trump’s culpability there.

According to Open Secrets both he and his wife Beth Heifetz, a lawyer, donated minor amounts to the Democrats and his initial appointment was by Bill Clinton that paragon of integrity as IG of DOJ. He resigned in 2011. Per Wikipedia: “The Department of Justice’s inspector general, Glenn Fine, stepped down on Friday after a decade of pushing to clean up and depoliticize a hyperpoliticized department. He will be missed. Mr. Fine’s best-known efforts came in 2008 when he documented the George W. Bush administration’s politically driven firings of four United States attorneys and its politically driven hirings (breaking the civil service law) of scores of civil servants at the Civil Rights Division. Last year, he continued to detail the F.B.I.’s widespread misuse since 2001 of ‘exigent letters’... President Obama should appoint a vigilant successor to Mr. Fine, one who will continue to expose the department’s shortcomings and their costs.[7]”

He returned as an IG in June 2015 right before the election just in time for the election.

If I was Trump I’d be pretty leery of the guy unless I knew a whole lot more based upon what we’ve seen of similar Obama holdovers.

I agree with Trump. He needs to put people in there that he can trust and rely on.

Thanks. Very Deep State appeal to authority. He acted as the DNI of the day approved. Snakes all.

So, in your opinion, has Horowitz performed properly with his early release of FISA deficiencies? He could have waited, but issued a preliminary report. Or is he just Deep State covering like, say, Chris Wray seems to do for the FBI? The latter, being a bad appointment on bad advice.

" The move threatens to upend the cause rigorous oversight that of Democrats in Congress had demanded demanding of the huge sums of money being pumped into the American economy their pockets because of the virus.

There. Fixed it.
