This is simple. McConnell does not think Trump can win without Russia’s help.
Mitch McConnell is blocking election security bills in Congress, according to Dems who are being rebuffed in attempts to advance the bills. Chuck Schumer is pledging to keep putting forward requests to vote on legislation, including a House-passed bill. washingtonpost.com/politics/elect…
We have long had ugly margins in this country, but we are a fundamentally decent people, with shared values. We treasure our identity as a nation of immigrants. With our voices and our 2020 votes, we must send Donald Trump and his mob back to their dark corner.
I would not have thought that I needed to say this.
Schiff opening statement: "For those who have not yet read the Mueller report, and most have not, they might be astonished to learn that a finding of no collusion, much less a finding of no obstruction, is nowhere to be seen on any page, or in any passage, of the Mueller report."
The ball is in our court, Congress.
BREAKING: Special counsel Robert Mueller says charging President Trump with a crime was "not an option" because of Justice Department guidelines. apne.ws/h9MCkGb
Attorney General Barr has deliberately misrepresented key aspects of Mueller’s report and decisions in the investigation, which has helped further the president’s false narrative about the investigation.
Mueller’s report describes a consistent effort by the president to use his office to obstruct or otherwise corruptly impede the Russian election interference investigation because it put his interests at risk.
Big news, per @kpolantz: A federal district judge has told the accounting firm Mazars it will need to turn over Donald Trump’s accounting records from before he was President to the Democratic-control House Oversight Committee. Trump had attempted to challenge the subpoena
People who say there were no underlying crimes and therefore the president could not have intended to illegally obstruct the investigation—and therefore cannot be impeached—are resting their argument on several falsehoods:
Here are my principal conclusions: 1. Attorney General Barr has deliberately misrepresented Mueller’s report. 2. President Trump has engaged in impeachable conduct. 3. Partisanship has eroded our system of checks and balances. 4. Few members of Congress have read the report.
The AG should stop sliming his own Department. If there are bad facts, show us, or search for them professionally and then tell us what you found. An AG must act like the leader of the Department of Justice, an organization based on truth. Donald Trump has enough spokespeople.
Think of it. The Russia investigation was a legitimate investigation, with a legitimate basis, into how a hostile foreign power tried to interfere with and undermine our democracy. It was in the best interests of the nation—in the interests of all Americans, no matter who ...
Think of it. I became President of the United States in one of the most hard fought and consequential elections in the history of our great nation. From long before I ever took office, I was under a sick & unlawful investigation concerning what has become known as the Russian....
Don Ayer, who was Deputy Attorney General under Bush 41 the same time Barr headed OLC, signed this letter. Gene Rossi says on @TheLastWord that for Ayer to sign is not only courageous, but also means Ayer thinks Barr's analysis of obstruction "is insane." medium.com/@dojalumni/sta…
More than 370 former federal prosecutors who worked in Republican and Democratic administrations have signed on to a statement asserting that Mueller's findings would have produced obstruction charges against Trump — if not for the office he held. washingtonpost.com/world/national…
I feel that these two sentences from Volume II of the Mueller report have not gotten anything like the attention they deserve (My retyping; my highlighting)
Ever wonder what happened to the “counter report” Rudy Giuliani said he would issue after Mueller’s own report came out? Apparently, it was only four pages long. And Barr released it for him.
Trump has been controlling the narrative for the last three years. That period is now over. [THREAD]

Chris Wallace: Some opinion people who appear on this network, who may be pushing a political agenda. But, you know, we have to deal in facts. And the fact is that this letter from the special counsel … was a clear indication that the [special counsel] was upset, very upset.

Accomplished people lacking inner strength can’t resist the compromises necessary to survive this president.
What I just saw from the Attorney General is unacceptable. Barr must resign now.
