New AG Barr's son-in-law 'detailed' to WH counsel's office, will be advising Trump on 'legal issues'

Polly Sigh @dcpoll 1m1 minute ago
Tyler McGaughey, son-in-law of new Trump AG William Barr, has just landed a job in the Trump White House counsel’s office and will be advising Trump on "legal issues." McGaughey's work WILL intersect with the Russia investigation.

This is such BS.

looks like they waited until after the Senate vote to move the son-in-law

I'm pretty fucking cynical here, but I think it's going to take fucking blood before this shitstorm is over.

the entire Retrumplican Party is going to do whatever the fuck they need to do because they are so far up Putins ass they can see Sarah Palin's house.

This is going to get fucking ugly. I've never felt such fear about what the fuck is going to happen to our fucking country.

Retrumplicans know that they've done some shit that will land them in Federal Prison. They are going to do whatever it takes...burn the Constitution to the ground, military in our streets, murder...whatever it fucking takes

They will not go quietly, or peacefully.

country will ever recover! Where did these hoodlums originate? AG looks at report, gives information to son-in-law, who then sets up a buffer for Trump. When the movies is made there will not be enough actors for all these nefarious characters.
