Anyone else get the feeling something big is coming?

[C_U_L8R]

1. Duty. Honor. Country.

I wish Republicans would take note as well.
They don't seem to realize how wrong they are.

[Shell_Seas]

2. The views are skewed.

[TheBlackAdder]

18. The GOP's motto: Putin. Russia. Money.

[whathehell]

31. Probably in reverse order, though.

[malaise]

3. Rachel and Lawrence were talking between programs last night

and suggested that given the long weekend we should expect something huge today.

Can't wait

[TexasTowelie]

4. Rachel Maddow almost guaranteed that something will happen.

It will be the Friday news dump prior to a holiday weekend. Donald might consider bombing a country as equivalent to a fireworks show.

[awesomerwb1]

5. If anything, sounds to me like something big

might be coming down to discredit or hijack the investigations.

Grassley's letter/request, Graham's letter/request and the far right machine going into "collusion isn't illegal" mode.

[Shell_Seas]

6. There has been a lot of chatter on Twitter about...

WaPo having a bombshell story that they are sitting on, the US Government asked them to hold off on. It may (or may not) show direct evidence of Trump (himself) colluding with Putin. It may come out today, that may be what Rachel was hinting at.

[awesomerwb1]

14. Ahh ok.

If said story shows direct evidence it will be a bombshell for sure. Still think it has to do with a discredit campaign against FBI or something more serious.

[onit2day]

22. "The US Government"? Who exactly

[Shell_Seas]

25. Not sure.

Been following Benjamin Wittes and his group. They seem to always know things are about to happen. I would assume either the DOJ or FBI...

[smirkymonkey]

7. Oh please, I hope so!

Something has to give. We can't go on like this. It's madness.

[COLGATE4]

8. Rachel last night made a big deal of what she believes to be the

beginning of a RW campaign (headed by Grassley and Graham) to denigrate and injure the FBI in general and its investigation of Rump in particular. It seems to me that this may be what he's referring to. https://www.democraticunderground.com/1017446328

[Achilleaze]

12. Holder seems to be saying that the KGOP will be intensifying an epic shitstorm...

...of lies & spin their way to try and obfuscate the rank corruption and treason of the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, Comrade Casino, and his Cabal of Colluding Republican Cronies.

That's how I read it.

[BigmanPigman]

34. I wrote to her last night about the need for a separate Independant Investigation.

[octoberlib]

9. Seth Abramson pointed out on Twitter

that the last time Holder tweeted something like this Comey got fired.

[HopeAgain]

13. Another Saturday (or Friday) Night Massacre?

Good bye Mueller?

[octoberlib]

15. That's what I'm afraid of but there are other

possibilities. Holder could be referring to the Graham/ Grassly Fisa investigation.

[BumRushDaShow]

24. Rachel suggested possibly something around McCabe. nt

[MineralMan]

10. Potential Friday News Dump?

Bring it!

[Moostache]

11. The Friday Afternoon Masacre...Mueller is gonna get the axe today...

That would also explain why Trump is tweeting about Mika and Joe and trying to create a big enough distraction to provide cover for it...it is classic Trump to think that he will get away with it if the country is obsessing about his Twitter nonsense.

There will be blood before it is all over, sadly.

[grantcart]

16. Tic tic tic

[lillypaddle]

17. You guys are scaring me

bigly.

[Gothmog]

19. Yeah for former AG Holder

[cwydro]

20. Lol, another shoe going to drop?

I'd be rich if I had a dollar for all these type "something is about to happen" posts.

[C Moon]

21. or..."another shoe dropped!" Remember all those?

[Eliot Rosewater]

23. Bannon wants to destroy the FBI, etc., AND save his useful idiot at the same time.

America is in a war, no shooting yet, but an ACTUAL war with Russia and the GOP is assisting them.

When the FBI and areas of the DOJ are attacked by the GOP, we are at an impasse, could be no other way to resolve this than everybody hunkers down and protects their loved ones.

[Amaryllis]

26. TICk TICK TICK

[NastyRiffraff]

27. I think Flynn is singing

and the White House knows it. They're trying damage control:

"“A Trump campaign official said that Mr. Smith didn’t work for the campaign,” the Journal reported, “and that if Mr. Flynn coordinated with him in any way, it would have been in his capacity as a private individual.”

Right. "Mr. Flynn" acted as a private individual while working as a Trump campaign official to benefit the campaign by dirty tricks, aka collusion. Flynn KNOWS he's in deep doo-doo and his best hope is to practice his vocals and try to get the best possible deal.

That MAY be what's coming out soon, possibly tonight. Tick tick tick tick tick...we'll see what the BOOM is.

[PearliePoo2]

28. Yeah, scared up to my eyeballs. Buckle up America.

If Eric Holder can't sleep and he's up in the middle of the night tweeting warnings, well...

I've never felt more apprehensive or uneasy about the State of Affairs. (and I'm a retired Boomer who grew up in the 60's)
fuck..

[KPN]

29. You and me both -- on everything

you said. I have a terribly gnawing sense of foreboding, especially in the last 36-48. hours. Not for me personally, but for us all and our national wellbeing.

[tblue37]

32. Are you starting to get the urge to "duck and cover"? nt

[whathehell]

30. I liked it when he wished Louis Gomert "Good luck with your asparagus"

[pirateshipdude]

33. Not seeing anything special today. Eom

[ashling]

35. Trumps reply: Who tweets at midnight like a skulking midnight tweeter

They should wait till 3 AM like a skulking man ... with tiny hands

[dweller]

36. not the 1st time

from May 10,2017, I posted this on my FB...

when the drip becomes a steady trickle ...

Eric Holder @EricHolder

To the career men and women at DOJ/FBI: you know what the job entails and how to do it. Be strong and unafraid. Duty. Honor. Country.

37. Not really. They've been questioned now for months.

Maybe Holder has heard that the staffers' morale is low, after the firing of Comey and the persistent criticisms and claims by the President himself that the investigation is a "hoax" and "fake" and "partisan."

I think the Congress people are behind the intel people.

[AntiFascist]

38. If this all happens to go sideways, can someone at the FBI sue?

It seems like the third branch of government, being the Judicial Branch, may need to come to the rescue if the Republican leadership of the Congress is colluding with Trump!

[hurple]

39. If this goes sideways

I have no doubt that somebody in the IC will dump everything they have on the press.

Let's see that genie get shoved back in the bottle.

[bucolic_frolic]

40. All i want to know is

how they are going to clean up this stench and reverse some of the damage

All these actions are illegitimate

A Russian agent selecting Federal Judges, abrogating laws derived over many
decades of legislating and jurisprudence, castrating federal agencies

This is ILLEGITIMATE!
