This tweet from March 24, based on my first quick read of the Barr letter, has held up pretty well. Trump’s best post-Mueller day was the first one. It’s only gone downhill since then

This is the bottom line folks. Mueller was unable to clear the President. Congress must now fulfill the oath it took to uphold the Constitution.

I say this as a conservative...and as a Republican: So far it is unambiguously a good thing that Democrats took the House. We've paid no price in bad legislation becoming law, and the gains in executive branch accountability and support for the rule of law have been important.

New Michael Cohen Memo Says Trump Instructed Him to Lie, Campaign Colluded With Russia


BY TODD NEIKIRK April 5, 2019

The memo also attempts to reject William Barr’s Mueller interpretation. The Attorney General had written that the information in the Mueller report did not prove Russian collusion.

The Cohen memo also includes somewhat of a reprieve for Buzzfeed. In January, Buzzfeed published a story claiming that Trump has instructed Cohen to lie. This story prompted Mueller’s office to respond, “BuzzFeed’s description of specific statements to the Special Counsel’s Office, and characterization of documents and testimony obtained by this office, regarding Michael Cohen’s Congressional testimony are not accurate.”

A footnote in Cohen’s memo reads:

“Note, this is not far off the words used by the Buzzfeed reporters — that Trump “directed” Cohen to lie in his congressional testimony vs. Cohen’s false statement to Congress, i.e., there were no Russian contacts after January 31, 2016, the day before the Iowa caucuses. Cohen’s false statement was made “in accordance with … [Trump’s] directives.”

Rachel Maddow Explains How Trump’s Mueller Report Cover-Up Is Imploding

Donald Trump may have thought William Barr’s initial four-page summary was a boost for him, but it has quickly turned into a full-fledged disaster.

Instead of being seen as an exonerating document, as Trump hoped, Barr’s summary is now being viewed as one piece of a broader effort by the administration to cover up the Mueller report.

The harder they fight to conceal the unredacted report – and the underlying evidence – the less likely it is that Trump is, as he says, completely innocent of any wrongdoing.

The one upside to having an administration so incompetent is that they’re too clumsy to cover up their own corruption.

1924 TEA POT DOME SCANDAL, PRES. HARDING, was just as corrupt as DT, which brought about laws so NO MAN. NOT EVEN POTUS IS ABOVE THE LAW, must reveal taxes. these laws are what will help bring down this criminal mobster, we can do our part by getting LOUD!

Good news but not much help unless he can get McConnell and Barr to agree.

We know: Russia mounted criminal conspiracy to get Trump elected; he knew this, embraced it, benefitted from it, discouraged inquiries into it, fired the chief investigator, accepted Putin's denial over the evidence of US intel community. What word describes all this?
