DOJ had filed a sworn statement that officials - including Whitaker and Huber - claimed no written directives existed.


The House should investigate this!

This is the sort of behavior that was practiced in countries where US and Western interests destroyed parties that did not defer to their agenda.

This alone deserves impeachment.

This is about destroying any political system that facilitated the election of Barack Obama.
Americans better wake the fuck up.

Has there been an investigation into how it is operated? I keep hearing it is rough. The amount of filth that enabled him to skirt the law must be beyond belief.

And what's the statute of limitations on perjury/making false statements?

The next POTUS must instruct the DOJ to investigate and prosecute all cases of perjury and false statements made by Trump officials. It is the only thing which will prevent repeat performances in the next eventual GOP admin.

I'd love to see Sessions indicted on perjury charges. Let him follow in John Mitchell's shoes (and jumpsuit).

People with the exact same accent as Sessions will laugh and cheer Trump mocking Sessions.

Was it leaked?

It's good that Sessions documented it.

And do we have the underlying document from Boyd to Goodlatte?
