Rep. Adam Schiff Sounds Alarms About Trump's Assault On DOJ And Rule Of Law

[UCmeNdc]

Trumps hysterical demands the DOJ/FBI find the "spy" in his campaign is just another distraction, says Schiff. An opportunity to put the investigators on trial.

Wolf Blitzer discussed the matter and its implications with Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA) on his show today. Schiff accurately describe this as an alarming assault on the independence of the rule of law, and the Justice Department itself.

1. Rachel and Lawrence were discussing this too.

David Frum, The Atlantic, also made some good points. On the one hand you have Rosenstein appeasing the fake prez's ridiculous demands again and this sets new precedents in a negative way. On the the other hand Rosenstein may be playing this out well by giving a little bit so that the Mueller team can continue and he won't be fired. The moron keeps demanding more and more info which undermines the investigation and puts people at risk. The question is when and over what will Rosenstein draw the line and decide to resign if he continues to demand more in the future.

3. The republicans are showing their TRUE values and ethics by letting this happen

The repubes have given Comrade Casino free reign to piss all over the rule of law, and any semblance of decency, honesty, integrity, or loyalty to the USA.

The repubes are completely abdicating their basic responsibilities as American citizens and legislators. Their cowardly silence and abject acquiescence to this morally degenerate criminal enterprise will seal their shame for centuries to come.
