While I agree with you IN PRINCIPLE, I keep hearing these long-ago familiar voices in my head...

“AGAIN?! That trick never works!”

“This time for sure...!”

None of the things the governors are doing are constitutional.

This includes things such as deciding which businesses people may enter, and how many people they will permit, if, where and how churches should hold services, preventing assemblies that they do not like, restricting freedom of movement, preventing travel between the states, stifling freedom of speech by forcing people to wear what is essentially a gag...

well, the list goes on and on.

**************

Yup.

who would FReepers like to see as the Attorney General in President Trump’s next term?

There's an abundance of Freepers qualified to not only be the next AG, but also on the Supreme Court.........Just ask them....they seem to have all the answers.......LOL!

I think Barr is referring to the sheer scale of the intrusion, rather than its intensity or nature.

“This time for sure...!”

I agree people have been disappointed over and over again.

But how realistic was the expectation that President Trump would direct his DOJ to throw Hillary Clinton, Andrew McCabe, James Comey, John Brennen, Susan Rice - even Obama himself - in jail?

An incoming Republican President tossing the outgoing Democrat President and his top brass in jail for treason?

What could possibly go wrong?

“ How many ethnic Germans were interned? Italians?”

About 20,000, but not many were US citizens. Most Japanese were not interned, but relocated. That may be considered a distinction without a difference, but it’s a fact.

He kept the Islamofacists out of Transylvania and central Europe for a few generations.
