So basically the dude is running around talking to foreign spy agencies to try to discredit the spy agencies of his own government. As a non-USA spook, what do you even say to that guy?  It's such a huge opportunity to feed garbage directly into the top echelon of the world's hyperpower.  There will be espionage textbooks written about this.

And the whistleblower is in protective custody after their own President threatened them. Who's guarding them?  A federal agency?  Do all the people with guns report to Barr?

Strange days indeed.  The government is fighting itself.

Although it's not the first time this has been done. Curveball, Iraqi informant.

Trump is trying to steal elections, Bush was trying to start an invasion.

Seems Republicans have no qualms about this kind of thing, and the Barr character has been at it for years.

Now they just shovel out mountains of garbage, which they hope eventually, will confuse and then bore uninformed voters.

Barr legitimately thinks the president should have unlimited power so his moves are all in support of that.  Congress has to share the blame as they let the presidency gain power over the years.  This should be a lesson to congress and hopefully a re-setting of things.  

They were talking about the congressional jail on cnn last night. They haven’t used it in decades and won’t now. But it’s another example of the power congress used to have.

Last week, the Intel Inspector General got roasted by Congress for not turning over a whistleblower complaint in the legally required seven days.
Now, the State Department’s IG, Steven Linick, an Obama appointee, has summoned congress to an “urgent briefing” this afternoon. 1/3

Per reporting: “Linick reportedly asked for the meeting after his office obtained documents from the State Department's acting legal adviser.” Sounds to me like State withheld information it was legally mandated to provide to Congress which Linick is now hastily forwarding.  2/3
 
Given the fact that last week’s drama centered on IGs’ obligation to forward *whistleblower complaints* though, don’t be surprised if State had received its own set of documented whistleblower concerns and buried them... until now. We’ll see. Listen for more whistles today. 3/3

Won't matter. It's going to go to the Supreme Court soon enough and the likes of Kavanaugh will protect Trump. It's all part of the fix.

Liz Warren is an outstanding person. Here's an article about her.

http://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2019/10/elizabeth-warren-as-a-law-teacher

 

"Unlike almost all people who actually use this phrase (Warren herself doesn’t) Warren really did “come from nothing,” at least relative to the typical Ivy League law professor: her family was barely hanging on to the lower middle class for much of her childhood. She was an Okie Sunday School teacher and former waitress who dropped out of college to get married at age 19 to her high school boyfriend —"

She's got the courage, the wit, and the intelligence to fight back the swarms of liars that will go after her.
