(11,882 posts)Giving them sweetheart jobs in OUR government funneling money to their family members is a national disgrace, and shows contempt for the American people . You can bet trump if re-elected will have ivankie doing his job, and setting her up for the next fixed election , and to protect him and their family. As lazy as trump is he'll do very little, a lot less than the little he now does, and playing golf almost daily, and make her president for him, and her to use claiming she's capable, which she'll never be . These people are liars and as corrupt as they come, and she's like he is, only she can actually read .

(20,864 posts)House Democrats are going to have to start defunding departments. Barr is operating with impunity, with no checks.
What are the odds that he shows for the March hearing, and if he does show what are the odds that he doesn't answer the questions?

(15,246 posts)Warren is absolutely right to make investigating Trump era corruption part of her campaign pitch. There is a mind-numbing amount of non-stop grifting and corruption going on. Americans can understand this idea and it strikes at the fairness issue that Americans understand too.

(5,584 posts)First for the Eastern District of New York, then for the Eastern District of Virginia, and finally at main Justice in the Deputy Director's office for her last year.
After Bill Barr was nominated, and while he was awaiting confirmation, she transferred to Treasury.
Trump and Barr have done a lot of bad shit, and it should be investigated fully; but focusing on this clearly unimportant, far-fetched, crazy theory is not a good way to go about it.
I mean, she MAY have traded on her Dad's name during the interview process, back in fucking 2004, but the idea he pulled a whole bunch of strings to facilitate an agency transfer for cover up purposes is crazy. They can believably say they were trying to avoid the appearance of a conflict of her working in an agency where her Dad was the big boss.

Do not tell me that his kids working in the government are not complicit with Wild Billy's corruption and cover-ups. Everyone in the government who runs across his offspring should ostracize the hell out of them and make them feel shame.
