1,100 Former Justice Dept. Prosecutors and Officials Press for Barr to Step Down

My only question is why the 24/7 Trump bashing and refusal to discuss the issues? You have a very selective memory choosing what you want to address. Think the Average American even knows how Roy Cohn is and why would the McCarthy hearings have any bearing here? Being a progressive means you run from the issues and participate only in the politics of personal destruction none of which wins support as the Trump approval ratings continue to rise. wait until you get your socialist on the ballot!

Your rote and vacuous dogmas with your ideological morbidity continue to refuse to recognize or accept me at my word, ie, I am a capitalist.

Equally if not worse is your summary and arbitrary dismissal of Roy Cohn and his zombie legacy as embodied in Trump's present AG Wm. "Buffalo Bill" Barr.

Your undefined "Average American" not knowing who Roy Cohn was -- and continues to be in Wm. Barr -- does not absolve you as a below average American being associated with Cohn and his continuing, profoundly negative impact on the USA of the present. Indeed I've never mentioned McCarthy or his hearings, noting instead Roy Cohn existed both before and after as well as during the McCarthy abomination.

It's Trumpolini who spent much of his first year whining and bellyaching "Where's my Roy Cohn?|"

As for your polls all they are showing is that Trump is peaking 9 months too soon which leaves a lot more time and decline do be experienced going into election day in November (if we get that far in this Putin-Trump scheme supported by you who are their Rowers). Because and as I've said the worse Trump makes things the worse Trump gets so we can expect 100% percent Trump's worst is yet to come and that it singularly and collectively will be met by a highly effective and joined civil-military domestic response of impact.

Progressives aren't capitalists

Progressivism is a political philosophy in support of social reform. It is based on the idea of progress in which advancements in science, technology, economic development and social organization are vital to the improvement of the human condition.

Then there is this, anytime I see the left complaining about income equality I focus on the loss of personal responsibility and the fact that no rich capitalist ever prevented anyone from joining them but may rich socialists keep people dependent and do

The fraud of “progressive capitalism” - World Socialist Web Site

I find your comments unproductive and out of touch with reality. Regardless of when Trump peaks there is no valid reason to vote for a Democrat in November. Results matter and you have posted none that are relative to the November elections or Trump's performance in office. Class envy, jealousy, and politics of personal destruction permeate throughout the country today and even though you claim to be a progressive capitalist you are moving in the wrong direct as the more power the gov't gets the closer we get to total socialism. Why would you destroy the greatest economy on the face of the earth simply because of envy and jealousy

All you have is rightwing ideological morbidity.

As I've noted in numerous posts, no answers are accepted by you because no answers are acceptable to you.

Some will find it a shocking fact to face yet you are a furthest right ideological and political cross of Wm. Barr and Roy Cohn, ie, the worst of the fanatical armband worst who are determined to never be outdone by history.

Incremental moves to socialism are never going to be acceptable to me. You are going to find the shocking fact that once you make the move to socialism you can never go back.

No answers are accepted by you because no answers are acceptable to you hence your absolute and fierce determination to define others to themselves and to persecute 'em as what you say we are. This arbitrary and unrelenting pursuit is an ideological morbidity that is interminably driven as we are witnessing daily, regularly and with an extreme intensity, rote repetition, frequency. Your pronouncing others to be who you declare us to be -- irredeemable first and foremost --- suggests a punishment to us that would be equally absolute.

Reality doesn't exist in your world nor does history. Communism started incrementally, UHC started incrementally. Socialism stars incrementally. Facts always get in the way of people like you who think they are smarter than everyone else

The one thingy I know is that there is one person I'm smarter than.

It's a rightwing rule that he who posts last "wins."

It's a rule of long standing that is widely observed over there.

Practiced mostly while sitting of course.

Yes, you truly are a LEGEND in YOUR OWN MIND
 
What were the "crimes" by which the witch hunters in the lynch mobs convicted the Trump Associates?

If you would check, you would find that none of them had anything to do with anything outside of perjury traps or actions taken that were unrelated to Trump.

Why do the Never-Trumpers like you ALWAYS tell half truths and strut around like their lies are not lies? It's a mystery to me.

While all of this is going on, Trump is posting one success after another that ALL serve to improve the lot for the American People: ALL Americans.

More Americans working at the highest wage rates accruing the most wealth in the history of the Republic ever. EVER! Never been better for us individually or as a whole population. EVER!

For the first time in a long time, the bottom end of the wage scale is rising more quickly than the top end. Another injustice from the Obama era being corrected!

In the mean time, short sighted haters blinded by the lies of short sighted hating partisan hacks repeat unfounded lies and seem to be proud that they are utterly misinformed and are also ignorant of the fact they they are so stupid.

Maybe you can explain why the short sighted, misinformed haters that are absolutely certain of things that don't exist holds these beliefs.

Why do you cling so bitterly to fantasies rejecting real world truth?

Many of tRUMPs circle are in for some sort of fiinancial misdeeds.

Rep. Chris Collins, R-N.Y., the congressman who was once the first to stand up and endorse then-candidate Trump during the 2016 election, was sentenced to two years and two months in federal prison on Friday.

Having pleaded guilty to charges related to securities fraud conspiracy and making false statements, and resigning from his post last year, Collins is just the latest in a series of close allies and associates of President Trump to face the stain of a criminal record. In all, 14 Trump aides, donors and advisers have been indicted or imprisoned since the days when the first-time candidate promised that he would only hire "the best people."

These are process crimes that rose out of the investigation by the lynch mob during the witch hunt.

No investigation- no crimes.

Your link demonstrates the ongoing miscarriage of justice conducted by the mad dog lynch mobs assembled for no other purpose than to attack Trump.

Can anyone explain why it required a greater number of attackers to take down Roger Stone than was required to take down Osama bin Laden?

I'm amused that, once again, if the person being affected by Russian election interference is a Democrat- even a Communist, in this case Bernie, he's informed and asked to cooperate. Before this, it was Hillary that was cautioned to be careful.

If that person is a Republican, as even the least perceptive must by now understand, Trump, he is placed on Double Secret Probation and harassed by all manner of government and media intimidation for 4 years.

What's up with that?

Here's a video of Comey talking to McCabe planning the take down of Trump. His salient quote:

You seem to be forgetting all those Hillary supporters within the Obama Administration and the FBI, CIA, and IRS who were spying on, and working against, the Trump campaign. All this is not yet over and the Durham Report, as well as other ongoing investigations, will paint a clearer picture of where most of the malfeasance occurred.

So they didn't commit the crimes?

But there was an investigation so they invented the crimes? I don't believe it.

Or you making the excuse they don't get caught in their crimes if there was no investigation. So it would've been ok they committed them crimes. Unreal, you seem upset that crimes committed are not real because you don't agree with the investigation.
How about all the investigations R's did against D, Hilary in particular. And no crimes were found.

Communist? Do you know what a communism is?

When you get something, then we'll see.
3+ yrs and so far notta. Or is the term, nothinburger.

R's have been trying for years to get Hilary and even Obama. So far, all has come up empty. Not even any in the circle has been charged.

Unlike the dozens that have been who are tied to tRUMP in some fashion.

That tells the real story.

For most of those three years there has been the Mueller Investigation and the impeachment attempt. Now that that is all over the investigations into how these farces all began is being looked at. Those who signed the phoney FISA applications will certainly be questioned.

Setting up the illegal server was, well, illegal.
Using it was illegal.
Granting access to it for her subordinates was illegal.
Any government official who used it to communicate anything related to government to her was illegal.
Ignoring the subpoena for emails on the illegal server was illegal.
Destroying emails on the illegal server under subpoena was illegal.
destroying the devices containing official federal messaging was illegal.

Hillary Clinton emails - what's it all about? - BBC News

Regarding Trump, after the hoax witch hunt conducted by the various Lynch mobs, no crimes were found.

However, the crooks in the FBI and th DOJ who perverted our national and international law enforcement and investigative agencies trapped various individuals in their schemes.

If the crooked cops had not perverted the system pressuring individuals that did nothing involved in the topics they were actually investigating, the crimes you are so concerned with never would have occurred.

In the case of General Flynn, the FBI Goons were asking questions of Flynn to which they already knew the answers and their goal was exclusively to lead him into their perjury trap(s). Why did they do this?

The FBI Goons told Flynn specifically that he did NOT need to have a lawyer present as he was in no danger of being investigated. This meeting was described as a friendly get together.

The FBI Goons deliberately lied to Flynn to circumvent his Constitutional Rights.

This is Police State intimidation and deceit. Stalin would have been proud to claim the tactics used by the FBI Goons.

I think the real story will be told by the timing of the indictments of the co-conspirators.

What do you think? September or October 2020?

Not at all.

The investigation is ongoing.

When Democrat-Socialists are in charge, they identify man and then create the crime.

When Constitutionalists are in charge, they identify the crime and then search for the perpetrator(s).

It's the difference between the Lynch Mobs driven by Democrat-Socialists and law enforcement used by Republicans to find justice.

The Democrat-Socialists are only doing what Democrat-Socialists have ALWAYS done. It's apparently a key part of the DNA of their political heritage.

Yet, no one has been charged.

So far, it's still tRUMP people.
