zero Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 And I bet none of those red hat wearing mofos have any clue either.

Nebraska Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share Posted May 22, 2019 Quote SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California has sued to block the administration of President Donald Trump from cancelling nearly $1 billion for the state's high-speed rail project. The lawsuit filed Tuesday comes after the administration revoked the funding last week. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/california-sues-trump-administration-over-1-billion-canceled-high-speed-n1008406 hilarious. someone needs to tell gavin to check this out. or maybe at this point it's just a matter of formality to sue the guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Mughnus Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Seems like the investigation, his finances etc may be linked somehow I guess? They must be getting closer to something damning. I'm probably just being hopeful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candiru Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Assange nabbed on an 18 count indictment, including espionage. Wouldn’t you be panicking if you had dealings with him? Like if you were Trump or worked on his campaign? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candiru Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 It means he wants Barr to declassify only things that make people investigating him, or people from the Obama administration look bad. He's trying to say they committed treason by investigating his very real nefarious activity. But he has no idea what he's yanking on. FVEY means five eyes alliance, the intelligence communities between the US, Canada, UK, Australia and New Zealand who work closely together and have tight cooperation. Basically, he thinks he can have Barr pull a spin-job on reams of classified information much like he did "summarizing" Mueller's report, but this is a whole different beast that can seriously bite them back. It's reckless and desperate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignatius Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 a lot of the stuff he declassified is foreign intelligence gathered by our allies. stuff they shared w/us and probably should have remained classified. we'll see if they ever share intelligence w/us again.

Instead of doing what McGahn did. You could argue Barr is actively not saving the president. And yes, I know this sounds silly and pretty f-ing unbelievable. Thing is, if people within the administration will keep on saving him, they might actually succeed. Perhaps it's faster to give Trump everything he wants.

Thing is, if people within the administration will keep on saving him, they might actually succeed. Perhaps it's faster to give Trump everything he wants. barr is complicit in this cover up. barr wrote recently.. last year i think.. a paper arguing that the president cannot be indicted. period. he believes in the power of the office and is using his office to push that idea. he could've already easily sunk trump by handling the mueller report accurately and fairly but he didn't even characterize what was in it in an accurate way. his testimony and then his refusal to testify further is more than enough to see that he's a political hack for trump and not living up to the oath of his office. it's all pretty lame. trump is apparently going around and saying things like "i finally got my attorney general" to people in the whitehouse. he's finally got his wing man. so, if barr is in fact just letting out the rope long enough for trump to hang himself he's playing some 5D chess or whatever.
