Rachel lays out how now every trump related DoJ investigation and prosecution has him interfering, ordering changes, putting hand-picked people to second-guess prosecutors, adding a political layer of oversight. The DoJ is fully corrupted at the top.
Rule of law already broken where it involves Trump
LOL...oh we do love "spin" based on unsupported conjecture and fanciful narratives, don't we? EVEN without knowing the personal histories or party affiliation of those assigned as either "career" federal district attorneys or as DOJ reviewers has it ever occurred to you that it could be more than overdue?
Or have you forgotten the horrible partisan travesty uncovered in the Senator Steven's case, after he was convicted and deposed from office? Or maybe you were never made aware of the unanimous Supreme Court vote overturning the conviction of Republican Bob McDonnell because the federal prosecutors had absurdly argued that the term “official act” could encompass any activity, in any context, for any purpose by a public official concerning any subject, including providing or listening to an opinion on a broad policy.
For anyone who has bothered to investigate the widespread prosecutorial and investigative misconduct and overreach in the US, at both federal and state level, its more than warranted and overdue for second opinions be obtained from other professionals before someone's life is ruined.
Mind you, as I am sure you know, the strong majority of attorneys are Democrats, perhaps even more so for those working for the Federal Government to impose the power of the state upon individuals liberty, rightly or wrongly. Hence, Barr's actions are far more justified as the likelihood of unjust and unfair prosecution of those on the right based on political partisanship will, by definition, be more prevalent among district prosecutors.
Yes...Yes...we all understand Maddow's wailing about how these "men of virtue" should be left unaccountable and unchecked in their power...most being democrats working on behalf of centralized power. But really, it does not require you to parrot her terror at second opinions.
Clearly she and liberaldom is threatened but the questioning of the deep, dark, and very liberal state.
