I like that the DOJ spokesperson is claiming that in the conversation between Mueller and Barr that Mueller didn’t object to the letter.

I like how Florio’s original proposition is basically blackmail. Blackmail in what would be a failed attempt to circumvent the Constitution.
Wohl and Burkman are killing the political thriller genre.
If it’s any consolation (probably not) I’m also an Arsenal fan. A beaten down and defeated Arsenal fan that has swung far too deeply into cynicism.
At this point the 2016 GOP Primary is really the best comparison (although not completely the same because of delegate allocation) for 2020. When you have this many people involved, there is no focused attacks and a really broad expanse of potential candidates.
I jokingly noted about 6 weeks ago that Arsenal had by far the easiest run of games to close the season and looked very much like they’d finish 3rd, so of course they’d finish 6th.
Always nice to listen to people complain that discourse is so terrible simply because the average person now has a means to voice their opinion.
I think this review is pretty spot on, although I’m not bothered by some of the concerns here. I think the Night King and The Long Night was always this elemental threat more so than some standard army to be defeated. And the show did a great job of actually framing it like that, with him bringing the literal storm…
We make fun of Gruden and Mayock for freezing out their scout team and all that but with guys like Gettlemen and others leading other franchises that continue to do stupid stuff, there weirdly may be value in doing so.
Trout was close, last year! His OBP was 0.460 and his plate discipline grows by leaps every year, as does his BA. I would not be surprised to see him hit 0.330 with an OBP close to 0.500 this year.
I mean...it’s probably the softest 5 minute major I can recall seeing. A 2 minute minor, sure.
They’re not missing the point, they know what they’re doing.
Not a lot surprises me anymore, but I would be pretty shocked if he won this. I’m hoping what you look forward to, happens on this particular case.
This will be telling for how things break moving forward. In suing Congress on this front, he’s essentially arguing they do not have the means to conduct oversight of the Executive branch.
This is actually pretty big. He’s effectively suing to restrict Congressional oversight over the Executive branch.
I know it’s vague, but furthering the investigation is probably the right call, politically and legally. The Special Prosecutor had a pretty narrow mandate, Congressional investigations won’t be so limited in scope.
I only disagree with one part of this...I think you diminish the capability of a 4th grader to respond in a more appropriate way. My 4 year old, depending on how tired she is, responds to criticism better than the President at least half the time.
The US could absolutely sanction the hell out of Russia, as they initially did in 2014 after Russia invaded Crimea. In fact, it crippled Russia’s economy pretty extensively due to the down turn in the oil market at the same time.
As a point of clarification, I’m not suggesting a direct move to impeachment. I’m suggesting the process and requisite investigations and hearings should start. I think that is the smartest and most logical path forward.
Sure but forcing Senators and House Members to oppose impeachment and conviction doesn’t happen in a political vacuum.
