Kamala Harris Sticks the Landing
ATLANTIC ^ | May 1, 2019 | Russell Berman

Posted on 05/01/2019 11:12:28 PM PDT by Rabin

Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, and Cory Booker haven’t exactly caught fire. All lagging, struggling to break through visa v, Biden, Bernie, and Pbuttig… Kamala really took advantage. Grandstanding was sorta brief, then squirted off, “has… anyone at the White House ever asked or suggested that you open an investigation of anyone? Yes or no?"? Senate / House “hearings” are 歌舞伎 (Kaboki)

Like predecessors Chaffetz, Gowdy & Issa, before. They take us for fools.

They are correct.

I caught that. The hooker asked that as if it would be a bad thing and as a "gotcha" question.

Trouble is, the DOJ works for the Executive branch and the President is the "head" of the executive branch. The DOJ investigating Federal crimes at the behest of the Executive is exactly how it's supposed to work.

Let's not let the derps redefine the Constitution. Let's stop buying into their false premises and narratives.

Kamaltoe was playing into people's ignorance. Because she is ignorant.

It's wrong to assume they are ignorant, they are just smart enough to know how ignorant the General Public is and what they can get away with saying, it doesn't mean they really believe what they are saying.

True. The small minority know they are full of Schiff. But the vast majority, of which I consider idiots like Kameltoe to be a member of, actually believe their own BS.

There are indoctrinators and the indoctrinated. Simple math tells us that the indoctrinated must outnumber the puppet masters.

Kameltoe, like most politicians(especially derp politicians) is way too stupid to be a master.

I would even say Maxine Waters doesn’t believe that crap she spews, but she knows what her constituents want to hear.

Wighat Waters is maybe the stupidest one of all. Or maybe the craftiest.

NOBODY, even that buffoon, could believe everything SHE says. Without trying to sound racist, many black people use the cover of blackness to say any damn thing they want, knowing that the white man wouldn't dare call them the idiot that they are. That's just always been a thing, and many know it and take advantage of it.

The hair-hatted hooligan is as dirty and corrupt as they come, and she uses her black shield to baffle us with BS.

Yea, she's an idiot. But she's "street-smart".

And that counts for a lot.

We don't have many "street smart" politicians on our side. 'Cept for The Donald, all blessings be upon him.

I go back and forth with this. Are they liars or stupid true believers? I think the answer lies somewhere in the middle. I think they are so used to lying so effortlessly that they start to believe their own BS.

If you put them to a polygraph and asked them some questions like whether they truly believe that global warming is real and that they have the power to save the planet or if they still believe Trump coordinated with Russia to win the election, most would say yes to both and pass.

They are not true believers nor stupid. They are corrupt to the core.

Harris’ objections that Barr did not “review all the evidence” before he made his decision is so asinine. As Barr pointed out, 19 lawyers and 30 FBI agents collected evidence for 2 years, and interviewed 500 witnesses. Barr became AG when that evidence had already been collected. He made his decision based on their summary of that evidence. Harris is a jackass for implying that Barr should not have trusted Mueller’s summary of the evidence, but rather should have read witness transcripts for another year. Plus, to review “all the evidence” Barr would have had to be physically present when the depositions were taken to judge the credibility of the witnesses.

The Emerson Collective owns a majority state in this rag, and is looking to go for full ownership.

The Emerson Collective.

Nuff said.

Barr did absolutely excellent. All the democrats were there for was to angrily tarnish his reputation because they have to save face. Nadler won’t be able to interrogate Barr after a committee hearing that absolutely went off the rails to push through the resolution to add lawyers to the people basically kangaroo-courting Barr.

Barr’s one hell of a guy to put up with all of this sh-t.

What difference does his summery make now that the report is out. He didn’t need to release it at all. The Mule Team were a bunch of Hillary hacks carrying out the coup.

I’m not sure if was Kamala Harris, but I recall one of the senators asking Barr about how President Trump could possibly have thought Mueller had a conflict of interest that would justify Mueller being replaced by a new Special Prosecutor. The Attorney General did not answer that question and the discussion moved on to other topics. It would have really helped the President if Barr had outlined possible reasons that Mueller might plausibly be considered conflicted: he was a long-time personal friend of Comey, whose firing was the trigger for the Special Counsel’s appointment; he had been FBI director for 12 years and might not be able to objectively deal with evidence that cast discredit on an institution he personally must care about very much; and finally, that he had been seeking the job of Comey’s replacement as head of the FBI, had been interviewed by Trump, and not immediately hired (which might engender animus in a lot of people against the person who had rejected them, a potential animus that might amount to a conflict of interest). The stated reason for appointing a Special Prosecutor was that the FBI and Justice Department could not properly investigate matters that involved allegations of improper behavior by Justice Department officials. If that was the case, then what was needed was an OUTSIDE investigator, someone who had no personal interest in how things turned out. Very arguably, Mueller was not enough of an outsider to properly fulfill his role.
I believe that President Trump raised these issues because he was concerned that a mistake had been made in appointing such an interested party. If his concerns had resulted in the Special Counsel being replaced, it would have only prolonged Trump’s time under a cloud. By raising the issue and pressing it, the President was acting against his own benefit, but his actions are being interpreted by his enemies in the worst light. The claim seems to be that Trump would benefit if Mueller lost his job. I guess the assumption is that getting rid of Mueller would stop the investigation, which would NOT have happened.

Me too. Kameltoe did work on his staff for a long time.
