1. Maybe that is the real reason for the attacks on the FBI.

Maybe the white supremacists can tell that the FBI is preventing things they want to do.

all hang on Mueller! Not that we should worry that the investigation won't uncover this and lead to the next steps beyond the special investigation. Many real people are committed to getting criminals and conspiring weasels out of government.

Including btw, voters with the conviction to both vote crooked pols out and vote good ones in who will kick crooked appointees out.

Things would get more difficult and drawn out if what cannot happen did. New strategies would be activated, new generals would be deployed, and no doubt the anxiety level of some observers would increase.

get control of at least one house of congress and a good number of state governorships and/or legislative houses in the midterms, for a bit anyway. We're going through a lot for a long time now, and the fight will continue for some time. We need the power not just for what we will do with it but for reassurance that it really is going to be okay.

being uncovered and prosecution is coming. Marginalize law enforcement and the justice system is their only strategy

14. I dont think he looked as confident as he had in CPAC speeches in the past.

He seemed a bit shaken and had to go for the water at times. He also seemed to welcome the pause that the film excerpt of him gave. Loesch, on the other hand, seemed more determined. I do think the NRA is on the defensive instead of their usual offensive stance.
