A MUST see , Seth Abrahamson as to firing Mueller

6/ If Trump fires Rosenstein, his replacement will have to get through Congress, so the idea Trump can simply insert a stooge who will stop Mueller from issuing indictments is wrong. Likewise, saying that just because someone hasn't been indicted yet means they won't be is wrong.


I love that one. Congress has to go on record to appoint someone who will subvert justice and democracy.

us into a dictatorship.

Will 34% of the public still vote for him? Sure, guaranteed, but not much more.

We have to have a civil war otherwise. Nobody wants that.

I think many Republicans up for re-election in next year's midterms will have a problem with it. It's a branding issue.

they don't give a shit.
watching youtube this morning, a clip of Rachel played; it was kind of old (early 2017?) and was all about Scott Pruitt. The reasons not to confirm him as head of the EPA were many and varied. This aired prior to his confirmation. I'm pretty sure he's still head of the EPA.
republicans don't care.
