1. I wish

he would have got pissed when still in office.

[babylonsister]

4. I don't.

That would have provided ammo for the right.

20. Do not put this on him. nt

2. "The rule of law is at risk." I think that went out the window when the Rethugs refused to convict

the Bungler-in-Chief.

3. K&R!

5. Citing this case...

Citing the Flynn case was appropriate, but haven't there now been a long string of challenges to the rule of law all through Trump's term? Didn't it really start to accelerate when Barr Barr the Hutt took over the DOJ as Trump's big lap dog?

I mean, we have seen dozens of examples of that and a blatant attempt to act above and outside of the law and Trump has verbally indicated that himself, several times. That seems to be the theme of this rogue Administration and the purpose of the Regime he is forging.

As we approach the General Election, it seems clear that this will not only continue, but increase dramatically, especially since there are sealed documents that define presidential powers that we don't know about, (yes, above and beyond war powers, etc.) and Trump that has alluded to.

10. Agreed, the rat feels cornered and things will get worse. I dread to think of what this POS will do.

[Lock him up.]

19. The House holds the purse strings if these alleged powers are illegally invoked.

Thanks to the Historic BLUE WAVE of 18 months ago.

Besides, I think it's total BS.

Gov. Cuomo said the orange mob boss doesn't have powers over the States.

I wish DUers would stop posting these and believe in Nancy Pelosi's real powers instead.

6. I'm sure Pres Obama has Been Pissed for awhile now

like the rest of us.. we're just hearing about this.

[brer cat]

7. No doubt about that, Cha.

He and Hillary have no doubt been heartbroken and angry at what has happened to our country.

[Cha]

11. Yeah, brer.. we were an American Country.. and

now trump has pissed it all away.. killing many people and everything else along the way.

We have to get it back.

18. I think he was being very careful before the nominee was chosen

The spotlight needed to be on the candidates, and for him not to appear to be putting a thumb on the scale. Hanging back was a good approach.

Now he can be unleashed, though!

8. they messed up

should have let him be convicted and pardoned. now the case is still available for the next legitimate DoJ to bring without the sweetheart deal.

[BigmanPigman]

15. Can they really do that?

[BGBD]

16. DOJ

dropped the case. It's not like there was a judicial decision made that he was innocent and the case can't be brought again for double jeopardy.

Basically DOJ is making a decision to not charge him. They don't have the power to absolve someone of a crime forever, just the power to not bring charges. A different DoJ could always decide that a crime was committed and charges should be brought.

Remember that his guilty plea to the one charge was a deal so that he, and his son, wouldn't be charged with other more serious crimes. Withdrawing the guilty plea will terminate that deal.

17. It is satisfying to know that

what Barr did isn't the be all and end all for this case but more like a detour. Thanks, that makes me feel less frustrated than the news and how they present it.

[Me.]

9. Good

I hope PBO comes out swinging in the most discreet way.

[robbob]

12. Don't follow the link.

The comments on that thread are just appalling.

[certainot]

13. the russian dittohead tweets sure move in fast reinforcing

limbaugh, whose calling obama and schiff traitors from 600 radio stations, endorsed by 87 universities

then that stupid fucking trump calling them traitors too

they're setting up to push the GOP senate or barr into investigating them. they've been pushing for it since inauguration, since the kremlin's been feeding them the 'deep state" bullshit

hopefully all the trump admin's got covid now and pelosi for president!!!

14. I miss having a real POTUS

21. THANK YOU MR. PRESIDENT
