Good, I was beginning to think nothing was happening.

Part of this is an attempt to criminalize investigating Democrats.

Yep, I said pretty similar earlier.

The reality of politics today, is that anything Democrats do overseas is “off-limits”, and anyone looking into their overseas criminal activity is somehow colluding with a foreign government.

Anything Republicans do overseas is immediately defined as collusion and treason, must be investigated as Democrats see fit, and the Republican must be tried and convicted even if no crime occurred at all.

Also, the fact that the AG is personally calling on these foreign intel agencies tells me that either:

a. The investigation has struck gold, and stuff is about to happen.

or more likely

b. Durham has hit a brick wall, and Barr is trying to up the pressure. Nothing will come from this that is good for the USA.

Barr must feel like he’s in Alice in Wonderland

The Biden’s actually illegally colluding with the Ukrainians (and Chinese) yet they accuse Trump of colluding....the lawlessness of the other side is breathtaking

The swamp is really the best metaphor

Good. All this shows is that Jeff Sessions was the WORST AG ever!

Read the official conservatives: Trump has betrayed us. Trump is crazy. Trump is dangerous. On and on and on. And don’t think their voices go unheard in the hinterland.

Official conservatives? Who? Jennifer Rubin?

I’m thinking of Ross Douthat and Rod Dreher, both widely read for reasons other than politics.

If Barr were serious about wanting / getting truthful information we wouldn’t be up to our necks in impeachment crap now

I share your skepticism.

Widely read? By what measure?

“... last week the attorney general traveled to Italy, where he and [Special Counsel John] Durham met senior Italian government officials and Barr asked the Italians to assist Durham [in his investigation of the CIA and FBI] ...”

Oh? THAT John Durham?

I imagine that the reason for the visit by Pompeo is to negotiate declassification of Italy's role in the Russian Hoax. Why is a visit necessary? As always, Italy's default position when asked for anything is to resist and set up a negotiation seeking concessions or favors in return.

In this instance, the two administrations are both on the Right and politically copacetic. My guess is that the conservative elected Italian government would like some assurance that since the US now supports Brexit, that they will provide financial and trade concessions to Italy in return for Italian support for Brexit.

“They will try to say Trump should not be involved because he has a conflict of interest. And then claim it was impeachable because he was”

Thanks. That hadn’t sunk into me yet.
