This IG was appointed by Obama...nuff said. AND, I believe Sessions was a Hillary plant.

Actually, you might want to look and think a little deeper, or else have the guts to call President Trump a dumbass. Here's why...

President Trump retained DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz, who directs hundreds of investigators (lawyers) but was stonewalled by Attorneys General Holder and Lynch to the point that Rep. Chaffetz pushed through the Inspector General Empowerment Act of 2016 (HR 6450) to codify Horowitz's authority to compel production of documents. Horowitz has no love for the criminals who thumbed their noses at him. Trust President Trump.

1/4 sticks were supposed to be 1/4 stick of dynamite powder

An M-80, contains approximately 7-8 grams of flash powder, about 140 times the legal limit. M-100s contain about 20 grams of flash powder, about 400 times the legal limit. I think those were called “Ash Cans” the y were grey and the wick came out the side.

A full-dose aspirin typically contains 325 mg. of composition, therefore the pyrotechnic composition in a legal firecracker is actually less than one sixth (1/6) the size of a full dose aspirin.
An M-80 is not even close to being equivalent to a quarter stick of dynamite. This is just an urban legend.

I didn’t say anything about M-80’s, I said the homemade cherry bombs back in the 1950’s when I was a kid were equal to a 1/4 stick.

I have used dynamite extensively to blow stumps and know how powerful it is. You used to be able to buy dynamite in a hardware store.

I trust Trump, but not necessarily all of those around him. If he had fired Horowitz, the GOPe and dems would have thrown fits and stopped him in his tracks.

Sorry, but I stand by my assessment of ANYONE WITH ANY ASSOCIATION to Obozo.

Hope I'm wrong, but doubt it

No they were not equal to a 1/4 stick .They were not large enough to hold that amount of explosive.
