criminals. What the hell did Flynn say during 19 debriefing? Why did it take 2 years and thousands of subpoenas?

William "Iran Contra Scandal" Barr concluded that everything's fine, and to move on, even though tRump wasn't exonerated.

We don't know what the Mueller Report REALLY said. What we KNOW is how Barr FEELS, and we know that he's a crook just like tRump and other thuglicans. The same William Barr who said even before he was appointed AG by his buddy tRump, that this whole investigation was a sham and unnecessary.

Lastly, I'm hearing that we can vote the bum out in 2020. Well how are we going to do that IF tRump can essentially do anything he wants to, and that means that he can ask his buddy Vlad to interfere AGAIN. I mean, it's not like he'll suffer if he asks Vlad to help him out again in 2020. Over 100 contacts between camp tRumputin and the ruskies and there's nothing there?

Okay

Yes, that STAYS in the back of my mind. And even though the Dems had that beautiful blue wave this past fall where they stormed into and took the Congress away from tRump lovin' thuglicans. Yes, Dems won the Congress overwhelmingly, but what is tRumputin going to do? Remember, the economy is in the TANK and going out to SEA. Our country is unraveling economically--no doubt about it. He's destroying health care, and MOST folks are pissed about spiraling out of control premiums. Opioid addiction is an even WORSE place thanks to tRump hasn't done much for his deplorables. The farmers in the Mid-West are either committing suicide because their losing their family farms, let along losing all of the contracts they had to produce wheat, soy beans etc. Even thuglians are pissed off into HELL about NOT getting their wonderful and necessary tax return $$$$$ this year and in many cases, many thuglicans are even more pissed that they will end up OWING money to the US Government. And finally, that tax cuts for the RICH are WHOLLY unpopular, even amongst thuglicans who consider themselves what's LEFT of the Middle-Class. Finally, the states where tRump 'happened' to draw a straight to win Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan--states that he had to WIN to beat Hillary, all of those states are now trending BLUE since last years mid-terms. In other words, Scott Walker is GONE, replaced by a Dem Governor. You have Dem Governors in control of those other two states as well, and we know they'll have a big hand in making sure that MORE Americans (Dems) vote. In our last GE, you had so much voter suppression it wasn't funny, and he'll need that times 1,000 to make it happen again in 2020, because tRumputin can't win with his base alone, and the last time I checked, Independents are pissed off as hell at his policies and with him and his insane tweeting.

Now, with all of those HIDEOUS and REALhead winds confronting tRump and thuglicans in the Senate in 2020, I can see putin telling tRump to suspend the 2020 General Election.

MARTIAL LAW.

the fate of the future of our country is in the hands of a bunch of republican FBI agents.

Mueller was a member of one of Trump's country clubs. He is more like Trump than he is like us.

... then why doesn’t the House re-open the Iran-Contra investigation, and take a hard look at Barr’s involvement?
