Originally posted by Sparko View PostThe laws have been there long before Trump. In fact, if he actually built his wall, most of what you and the liberals are complaining about would go away. No more "camps" that separate children from their parents. Because the wall would stop them from crossing in the first place.A happy family is but an earlier heaven.

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostOf course the fact that prosecutors/investigators don't "exonerate" seems to get ignored here and his language has raised eyebrows among numerous legal scholars. All they can do is say whether there is sufficient evidence to pursue the matter. Wrt collusion he said there was none (sorry snowflakes) and with obstruction he said the evidence was insufficient.

Back in the 1990s the Democrats in Congress severely limited what could be released from these investigations. Typically they want to ignore the laws that they themselves sponsored and passed all because of TRUMPsmiley fist shake.gifsmiley fist shake.gif

There is one big difference, however: the investigations into Nixon and Clinton were predicated on and uncovered actual crimes. In the case of the Russian Collusion Delusion, not only did the letter appointing Mueller not specify a crime to be investigated, but the dirty cop came up empty-handed after spending a desperate two-years and $30-million trying to find anything at all to pin on President Trump. The corrupt House Democrats aren't continuing where Mueller left off so much as asking for a do-over.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Good luck with that. Congress issued a subpoena to Stedman and he basically used it as toilet paper. If the actual wording of the subpoena really is consistent with what has been casually tossed around in the media, it would amount to a demand for Barr to break laws and put himself in jeopardy. At that point, my hope is that Trump rescinds his waiver of executive privilige and instructs Barr to give the broadest and staunchest defense of executive power as possible.

Originally posted by Tassman View PostThe Starr Report was released in 1998 despite criticisms of overt bias and having been frequently leaked throughout the inquiry (especially its salacious details) unlike with Mueller's inquiry. So I don't know to what you are referring. But even if the rules were changed "in the late 90's" as you say, the historic tradition should be restored given that "After Barr Letter, Overwhelming Majority Wants Full Mueller Report Released"

Originally posted by Tassman View PostAh, well the historic tradition needs to be restored, given Barr's inadequate four page memo and the fact that he appears to have ignored the summaries prepared by the Mueller Team. There is now an overwhelming majority of Congress that wants the full Mueller Report released to enable it to fulfill it's Constitutional duty of oversight of the Executive Branch.
The have a choice:
1) Accept the redacted report when Barr delivers it in a few days.
2) Go ahead and excrete the threatened subpoena and watch it be tied up in court for two years or more, and get no report until the process is finished.Geislerminian Antinomian Kenotic Charispneumaticostal Gender Mutualist-Egalitarian.

Originally posted by NorrinRadd View PostIf you're saying that "an overwhelming majority of Congress" wants the Mueller Report in unredacted form, you're saying that they want Mueller to break the law. I'm pretty sure he'll politely hand them the pen he used to sign the summary and suggest they take turns using it to sit and spin.
