Nice links! Mostly.
Depending on your politics, this might be unnerving.

Yeah, let me guess:
– At the conclusion of the investigation, Barr releases a heavily redacted copy and also issues a summary which both seem to point to a conspiracy to undermine Il Deuce II, but no one will actually ever be charged with anything.
Lol! The investigation into the investigation, the one that Grindelwald calls “ tilting at windmills” is getting very very interesting indeed as little drabs of info continue to seep out. And has anyone noticed certain dems such as Adam Schiff beginning to yelp in pain against it? Why Adam? Why would you dems, including Yates, Comey, Brennan,Clapper and even Loretta Lynch, not want full transparency?
As Ms. Conway said back in January 2017, “we present alternative facts”. Why would we believe anything from folks who present “alternative facts”?
Devin Nunes already released the “bombshell” FISA application and renewals. Turns out the govt had plenty of probable cause for obtaining the warrants and fully disclosed the political nature of the Steel dossier.
The Inspector General already did a big investigation which turned up some text messages which amounted to little more than calling Trump and Pence “idiots.” There was no indication of illegal action taken by the FBI in investigating Trump.
This is starting to take on the feel of the 734 separate Benghazi investigations. When one fails to give you the answer you want, just start over. At least Hillary Clinton had the guts to sit in front of legislators (on multiple occasions!) for hours of publicly televised testimony. Really highlights how much of a coward Trump is, to be honest. If you’ve been “exonerated,” what’s the problem with letting your team testify?
EDIT: Speaking of Benghazi – freaking Trey Gowdy already defended the FBI’s conduct: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/05/30/gop-rep-trey-gowdy-defends-fbi-against-trumps-spygate-claims.html
I agree that we need transparency. Let Congressmen other than Doug Collins see the unredacted Mueller report and the evidence the Special Counsel collected. Stop stonewalling perfectly legal subpoenas for testimony, for financial records, for executive branch documents concerning the child separation policy. Oh, you only want transparency from the opposition? Cool cool cool.
I’m sure the folks at the CIA are totally stoked with the head of an unrelated department having the ability to publicly disclose sources and methods. Not like the Agency added 4 stars to their wall this year. Sure, lets put our intelligence assets in danger to soothe the ego of an emotionally unstable manbaby.
Not even close chief. But is good to see you are still stuck in your Democrat- mainstream fake news media bubble.
Oh, and it’s not just Barr. Their is also Horowitz. And the USA from Kansas who are investigating this thing.
The mainstreams will stay away from this as long as they can. Unfortunately for them, Bill Barr is a freaking honey badger.
Again, Trey Gowdy – a man who loves a pointless and purely political investigation more than anyone – has already said:
“I am even more convinced that the FBI did exactly what my fellow citizens would want them to do. It has nothing to do with Donald Trump.”
He said that on Fox News. He said that after being fully briefed on all the underlying intel. This isn’t me talking. This is the former Chair of the House OGR Committee and former member of the House Intelligence Committee.
My problem isn’t with transparency, by the way. My problem is I don’t think anyone can trust the guy that helped cover up Iran-Contra, issued a purposely misleading “summary” of the Mueller Report, and lied to Congress.
I also don’t trust Beltway media to have the stomach to call b.s. when b.s. needs to be called, because saying “William Barr is lying” would make the Thursday night dinner party really awkward.
Hipcamp. Very cool. We are again it, time to pass new zoning laws that lets it benefit only the lawmakers and friends, and don’t forget to tax it, engage.
Ginny spoke too soon.

Fake news. Real layoffs.

Anyone else take note of Trump’s right hand man during Trump’s recent public reaffirmation he’s a stable genius prior to calling on various sycophants to brown nose him as measured and mature in his response to Pelosi?
None other than Georgia’s Sonny Perdue. Perdue staying a step back saved him the indignity if not humiliation of being called on to extoll the magnificence of a misogynistic, narcissistic, serial liar of low character and intelligence.
Those in the GaGOP vocally behind Trump will at least have the option of saying they were wrong. That’s a lot easier task than the admitting to complicity by silence in Trump’s denigration of the country and government and lacking the character to even say anything about it.
Barone’s take on the myth of Abrams voter suppression.

Irony is lost.
An article about “the big lie” is full of lies.
I was going to respond more fully but it seems pointless.
Instead, a little pointed humor:
