Nadler ain't happy

[MelissaB]

I’m deeply troubled by reports that the WH is being briefed on the Mueller report AHEAD of its release. Now, DOJ is informing us we will not receive the report until around 11/12 tomorrow afternoon — AFTER Barr’s press conference. This is wrong.

1. Nadler ain't doing much

I'm glad to hear he thinks it's "wrong".

[Chin music]

13. Big relief.

Real tempest in a teapot tweet there. Channel Ted Kennedy Mr Nadler. Time to roll...HEAVY.

[DontBooVote]

20. A strongly-worded tweet...

[Loki Liesmith]

40. What power do you think he has exactly?

[pangaia]

46. To state publicly EXACTLY what is wrong with what they are doing..

and why.

[Perseus]

62. I will tell you what I think it is wrong

1. The threats about subpoenas. Where are they?
2. The threats about doing everything by the law...Where, what?
3. The lack of resistance to Barr and the crooks. Where is the outrage? Why are not doing something instead of just complaining?

You have to fight fire with fire, and I think it was Michael Nance who said that the republicans were coming with knives, and the Democrats were trying to fight them with Bibles...

That is what is wrong.

Enough talk, we need action, we need to fight this corruption, the longer they take the more difficult it becomes, too much calculations on the part of Democrats, we need solid, consistent action to change things around.

[pangaia]

65. More like they come at us with knives and we fight back with the wine list from Le Bernardin.

[George II]

49. What would you like him to do? I'm sure he's doing more than we all know about.

[uponit7771]

53. Call for impeachment so KGOP actions can be criminalized and not just politicized

[uponit7771]

52. IKR !?!?!

[dewsgirl]

2. Of course. These mfer's.

[2naSalit]

3. So could his failure to

release these documents be something that pulls him into that FBI counterintelligence investigation, assuming he's not already included?

[ancianita]

59. I hope so. They could make the case that Barr and Trump conspired to obstruct justice. Justice is

what the letter of the law says about releasing the people's report to the people.

That, in the midst of all the PR noise that will come from that pow-wow, is what drives Lizard's noise about the report. He and Barr hold that he's above the law.

Obstruction of justice before, during and after the two-year investigation.

[2naSalit]

66. Indeed.

As I imagine this to play out, it os the act of submitting the redacted report that will seal his fate in the commission of the crime - whatever it is called, I can think of many options. Once the submission is made, it could mean that a series of events could be triggered in removal from office of Barr and idiot.

[ancianita]

67. To your point about it playing out, Lawrence Tribe is right: Nadler should send subpoenas NOW.

[2naSalit]

68. Perhaps he's doing that now

given the events of the past hour since he gave that presser.

[ancianita]

69. Nope. I've been watching up 'til midnight. No move there.

[BeyondGeography]

4. Deeply troubled?

That’ll leave a mark.



Mr. House Judiciary Chairman, Laurence Tribe has been trying to reach you:

[Pachamama]

5. Everything about this is wrong....

[Hoyt]

6. If all we can do is stomp our feet and complain, I'd stop until we see the redacted report.

[C_U_L8R]

7. Cmon. Drop some subpoenas

Enough of this trumpfuckery.

[Chin music]

14. HEY-MEN.

It's now or never D's. Get fired up. We gave you the Blue Wave. EARN that shit now.

[MyOwnPeace]

38. You got THAT right!

Well stated, Chin - and while it's kinda' late, welcome to DU!

[Progressive Jones]

44. K & R nt

[iluvtennis]

19. Ditto

[watoos]

27. Dems have 85 subpoenas out there now

Didn’t you know that?

[C_U_L8R]

41. But we're yet to subpoena Mueller and his compete report.

And the witnesses.

[Chin music]

42. +1 Play by the exact rules with murderous thugs, lose EVERY time.

That's why they want a nation beholden to Jesus, so they can lecture us on our humanity, and keep us 'in line'.
Easy to control a bunch of god fearing christians, when inside you're evil as hell. WAKE UP America.

[uponit7771]

54. +1

[Windy City Charlie]

8. Not surprising

They're practically going to dump this on the beginning of the holiday weekend. They want it become as unnoticed as possible. It's purely orchestrated.

[TheRealNorth]

9. The media should refuse to do live coverage of the presser until after they release the report

The media should know by now this is all one big rat fuck.

[Ligyron]

60. Many in the media are part of the problem.

The normalization of borderline, and at times, outright criminality.

Oh look! He's being "presidential".

[Boomerproud]

10. Paper tigers.

This will have the monumental effect as a UN "condemnation" . Tomorrow he'll be "disappointed" .

[certainot]

16. democrats and the left let a few hundred republican assholes on 1500 radio stations attack their

representatives and take free potshots at them all day, lying about them and their motives and creating fake bullshit that the russians piggyback on social media, and then complain their reps aren't sticking their heads out far enough...

paper tigers....

trump and the gop are the paper tigers but the left keeps getting its ass kicked and has no clue why. then blames dem reps and lets the media puff up trump and his cloud of orange assholes, who are nothing more than a pack of dittoheads, into something formidable

[malaise]

11. April 1st - please

That was All Fools' Day - you believed a word from his mouth? WTF is wrong with you?
They've been lying for ages.

[JHB]

70. Perfect occasion for this, since I'd missed it on the 1st...

[malaise]

71. Absofreakinglutely Perfect

[Karadeniz]

12. Perhaps Nadler should invite himself to share Barr s presser. Just show up.

[Chin music]

15. Good idea. ALL of congress should show up. Unless they've gone home already.

Next election and all that. Earn the last one we worked so hard for.

[SunSeeker]

26. Yes!!

[dlk]

17. No Kidding..

[JHB]

18. But we must keep our powder dry!

[doompatrol39]

29. Won't someone think of the rust belt?!?!?!?!

Jesus Christ, what the fuck are we doing?

[djacq]

21. Time to get real.

Playing nice while the AG is mastering in BS isn't working.

[vsrazdem]

22. IMO Barr should be charged with obstruction of justice himself.

[kacekwl]

23. Deeply troubled ?

How about fuck this shit Barr, I'm pissed.

[playaseeker]

24. Where is someone with a spine?

Strongly worded tweets are cutting it.

[watoos]

30. You all missed the big news

Mueller’s spokesman Tweeted that mueller will not show up to the sham hearing. Know what that means folks? Mueller is ready to do battle.
Trump and Barr are digging themselves into a deep hole. When Mueller drops his truth hammer the shit is going to hit the fan.
I’m now encouraged.

[bluestarone]

32. You are correct

THIS is good news!!

[BeyondGeography]

35. Only if Democrats do something with it

Our Speaker has strongly suggested that impeaching Trump isn’t worth it. She has set a submissive tone and Nadler is running with it.

[leftieNanner]

50. What hearing?

Did I miss something?

[uponit7771]

55. maybe

[rzemanfl]

57. Link please. n/t

[George II]

61. I think you mean "sham press conference", the one being held tomorrow?

[Blecht]

25. Sounds like something

Susan Fucking Collins would say.

I want some action.

[MyOwnPeace]

43. EXACTLY what I thought!

Next will come "I'm doubly deeply troubled."

[snort]

48. He's already Double super secret troubled,

give him a break for fuck sake.

[doompatrol39]

28. Oh shit! He's troubled!

Dropping bombs left and right there! What ever will Barr do?!?!?!

And people fucking wonder.

[paleotn]

31. Just subpoena the damn thing and get on with it....

The same with the shitler's taxes. To get anything from these fascists will require the judiciary. Might as well start that rolling now.

[Chin music]

36. +1

[SHRED]

33. Ooooh

A strongly worded tweet.

That'll show them.

[Sunsky]

34. I'm tired of us being "deeply troubled"

I'm also tired of these unchecked and unbalanced people running the country. The time to act is now.

[Chin music]

37. And 'now', is like YESTERDAY.

Get cracking and earn your pay. WE are the paymasters.

[Sunsky]

45. Exactly

This is a hair on fire moment Congress, do something.

[Chin music]

47. Ive been bald since 2017. hair on fire every two days.

Never dreamt life would be so upsetting after the lessons we learned in the 60's, and w bush/cheney.

[uponit7771]

56. IKR !?!?!

[Firestorm49]

39. Ya, well?

[Chin music]

51. SO glad he's mad.

So are we. Now what? Mr Nadler, you asked for the job, got the Chair, the ball will be in your court, soon.

[ancianita]

58. Nope. He's pissed. And he says his committee IS going to get the full report by subpoena and court

battles, if necessary.

I'm pretty sure it will get leaked to the press in the future.

[ProudLib72]

63. Drop those fucking pearls you're clutching and DO SOMETHING!

[prodigitalson]

64. subpoena, dude!

now!
