Blame the SCOTUS justices who are responsible for the frivolous and dangerous "opinion" that the person at the head of all this chaos and madness is immune from prosecution for criminal abuses of power. The president always had the power to pardon his criminal co-conspirators, but one thing that helped discourage criminal abuses of power by the president's men was our ability to prosecute the president, himself. The people who framed our Constitution repeatedly emphasized that every public servant who was an impeachable officer (including the president) could be prosecuted for criminal abuses of power after he was out of office. The SCOTUS majority's so-called "opinion" to the contrary was, itself, an egregious abuse of power.

In trump world, preventing him and his maga tools from stealing is a crime. And how is Project Veritas still allowed to operate? Never mind, we're in trump world.

I would like to forward the EPA project, Veritas video to a trump supporter, but I can’t forward it in this format… Leaving a link at the bottom would be a great assist

My head is spinning and we are 5 weeks into this administration. I am hopeful, however, as citizens across the countryvarexstepping up and pushing back against the lies and deceit.

Thanks very much for this. They are thieves. I remain unwilling to believe that violating his oath and the law is a presidential duty. It would be entertaining to put together posters that show the names of these yahoos and their associated oaths.

This administration's corruption is legendary. Their incompetence and general illegality will prove to be examples for decades, if not centuries.

The history books and law books and I suspect constitutional amendments related to this era will be as frequently quoted and studied at least as much as any other period in history.

The voters who supported Trump, at least most of them, will over time quietly discard or destroy their Trump products, hats, coins, cards... as they try to pretend they never voted for him.

Somebody will point and say, "He is just like Trump" and people will gasp at the harshness of the insult.

It will be just as what happened after WW2, when the Nazis in the US who were quite popular before we entered the war, quietly slunk into the background.

But they will never truly go away, just as they have returned this time, emerging from the shadows, behind Trump as he gave them voice and reminded them there were still a lot of them and together they had power.

While the haters will remember and always exist, because by their nature they have no tolerance for different and their hate gives them focus and purpose, but it is the general public which needs to be reminded how the haters destroy and cause pain, so they will keep them down and unpopular. Until once again it fades into history and only the 'educated' the 'thinkers' remember and the public forgets to oppose and out of ignorance, negligence and the greedy listening to the biggest lies, the largest promises, the most extreme fears and another leader emerges to give voice to the haters, once again.

Cheung knew exactly what she was doing when she put ALL of those details into that letter. Not sure who she copied, but obviously it found it's way outside the DoJ. Do not mess with a lawyer more experienced than yourself. If you have the law on your side, it might make it a more even match, but when the law is NOT on your side, you will suffer in the long run.
