Adam Schiff, WE THANK YOU!

Show appreciation for one of our state's best reps Adam Schiff. His speech in response to the GOP Intel Comm members calling for him to resign was outstanding. I do not know how fellow CA Intel Comm member Nunes was able to sit and listen without running from the room in shame.

Schiff's CA office is (818) 450-2900 and his staff is receiving support calls.

Can Barr be found guilty of obstructing justice?

Should the Dems start looking into this if the report isn't handed over?

Who nailed Mitchell for obstruction during Watergate?

March 25, 2019

Please verify: It is the job of Congress, not AG Barr,

to decide what the conclusion of the report is. I have heard this all day long. So why is everyone acting like Barr is the final word on the investigation and the conclusion?

March 24, 2019

Is this just the BEGINNING of the END...OR....

the END of the BEGINNING?

It isn't over. We will see the report. This is just starting round three. Listen to our Dem reps...it isn't over FOR THEM so it isn't over yet. They will be fighting like mad to get the report and speak with Mueller and Barr and continue their investigations. Breath deep.

I am mad as Hell and am not going to take it anymore!!!

We all knew this is what would happen from AG Barr. DUers are not surprised a bit by the GOP/Barr power play. This is what they do and have always done.

Now it is our turn...call your reps in DC. (202) 224-3121
Sign up to march in protest if report isn't shown to the public. NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW!

If the report isn't given to the public we will march. Nobody is above the law.


We will march if..
"...Congress or the administration blocks the public from seeing Mueller's findings."

RESIST!

BREAKING: Mueller's report has now been handed to the Justice Department for Attorney General Bill Barr’s review. It is now up to Attorney General Barr to decide how much of the report will be released and when (if at all). Stay tuned for what’s next.

We will not activate yet because Mueller's findings have been handed over to AG Barr. However, if Barr/Trump hides Mueller’s full, original report from the public, we will take the streets to demand that they #makeitpublic & #releasethereport. Make sure you’re ready: sign up right now for a rapid response protest near you.

Nobody is above the law. When Trump attempted to undermine Robert Mueller’s investigations by appointing Matthew Whitaker as acting attorney general, Trump crossed a red line, and we launched over 500 protests nationwide, attended by over 100,000 people.

We stand ready to march again.

If Trump crosses one of the following “red lines,” we will take to the streets again:

Firing Mueller.
Pardons of key witnesses.
Actions that would prevent the investigation from being conducted freely, such as replacing Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, Mueller’s current supervisor, or repealing the regulations establishing the office.

The Mueller investigation releases findings showing significant wrongdoing by Donald Trump.

*********Or Congress or the administration blocks the public from seeing Mueller's findings.*********


Find an event near you and sign up to be notified of the next major protest. Join us to defend the rule of law, because nobody is above the law—not even the president.

RESIST!

Seth Abramson's tweets say don't listen to the media

and that Barr is full of BS too.

@SethAbramson

(THREAD) The Barr Summary—a very different document from the Mueller Report—is being woefully misread by media. It doesn't import what media is suggesting it does. Lawyers are welcome to comment on this thread as I report the Summary accurately. I hope you'll read on and retweet.

1/ Mueller was supposed to decide if Donald Trump could be charged with Obstruction of Justice—or, if not chargeable, whether he should be referred to Congress for impeachment for Obstruction of Justice. But AG Barr usurped Mueller's job and decided to make that decision himself.
·
6/ I'll do a full thread on this, but I can safely say, without *any* criticism of Mueller whatsoever, it's clear that what's happening right now is we're being hoodwinked. On obstruction, by Barr; on collusion, by media not seeing the *narrow scope* of the Mueller investigation.

5/ We're also now being told that the decision on obstruction, an impeachable offense, was not made by the man who was supposed to make it (Mueller) but by Trump's handpicked new Attorney General. Again I ask, WTF?

4/ For two years, scores of investigative reporters and independent journalists traced every evidentiary node of an accusation that Trump traded U.S. foreign policy for money.

Now we're being talked at about a summary of a report that doesn't even relate to that accusation. WTF?

*These are just some of his tweets today
