I think the worm is starting to turn

[SHRED]

Some heavy bipartisan agreements to limit the Executive Branch's power are underway.

The Grand Jury info today is more icing on what appears to be a fairly well cooked cake.

Repubs not involved with Putin need to wake up and turn on him now.

1. The move to keep the Senate in session was huge

No recess appointments

[SHRED]

2. Yes it was

A clear signal.

[Sucha NastyWoman]

11. Not so fast though

The traditional Republican conservative Senate may realize that they may be way better off with a President Pence, but the complete nut jobs and tea partiers in the House really like trump, or at least, they are too afraid to vote against him.

Until it is demonstrated that both Chambers have had enough of this maniac, you can call me skeptical.

21. That's not the point

The point is he can't shut down the investigation now by getting rid of Mueller. Dump may not be impeached by the House or even prosecuted federally but the facts will eventually come out now. And he can still be prosecuted at a state level. If all this does happen and he wins reelection then it is time to give up on our democracy.

[PSPS]

12. Indeed. That agreement required approval of all 100 senators.

[BigmanPigman]

3. Are there any Repubs NOT involved with Russia?

If there is then it's a very short list (most were complicit).

[SHRED]

4. I was hollering down a dark...

...and echoey hallway I'm afraid.

5. Congress lost all their power the day Comey was fired.

The FBI has been running the show behind the scenes.

[SHRED]

7. I'm guessing...

...not much love for him within the FBI and intel community at large?

[bathroommonkey76]

8. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the case. haha

[ProudLib72]

6. Is that the name of the new soap opera: As The Worm Turns?

I think the treasonous GOPers are busy manipulating their innocent fellow congress people with bribes, coercion, and cases of Scotch. That, and they are playing nicey nice to cover up for their crimes. Slimy bastards. Now is the time they should be outed.

[Docreed2003]

9. I think you're right...

Things are slowly moving against Trump. Right now, his administration looks like the drunk guy at a festival trying to do the worm:

[DoodAbides]

10. This has been very interesting watching the congress shore up Trumps power.

I do think it is a statement on what is to come.

[SHRED]

15. I wish they could limit...

...his power to pardon. Reign him in some more.

[LovingA2andMI]

13. Shows Pissing Off Those Who Make The Laws (Congress)...

When You Don't (Trump/Executive Branch) is always a BAD thing to do -- but in this case GREAT for America!!

The Congress MUST continue to reign/box/limit him in!!

[NanceGreggs]

14. I agree.

The worm is indeed turning.

I believe the Republicans have finally acknowledged the obvious: this "pResidency" is beyond salvaging, and the damage to their party is at the point of no return.

Trump's public humiliation of Sessions - his staunchest supporter - and his characterization of GOP elected members as lazy, ineffective do-nothings has nailed his coffin. Whatever "loyalty" the Repubs felt they owed the "pResident" because he had an (R) behind his name has now been obliterated. They have no reason to feel any loyalty to someone who has now proven he has no loyalty to them.

[Hekate]

19. What you said

[Mme. Defarge]

16. I think D.T. will soon resign,

taking full credit for the roaring stock market, and blaming congress for limiting his ability to do his job. He will resign before the Wall Street bubble bursts. He will do this because he's a cornered animal.

[SHRED]

17. However...

He'd lose his pardoning power if he did that.

[Mme. Defarge]

18. True.

Wishful thinking. (Sigh)

[Skittles]

20. the bipartisanship makes me wonder if they all know what's going down

yes indeed

[H2O Man]

22. Recommended.

You are definitely correct!
