Yates is widely considered a frontrunner for attorney general should Democratic nominee Joe Biden prevail.

“””He’s trampled the rule of law, trying to weaponize our Justice Department to attack his enemies and protect his friends,” she added. “”””

Is she talking about obama?

“I was fired for refusing to defend President Trump’s shameful and unlawful travel ban,”


Unlawful?

Supreme Court says otherwise.

The President’s travel ban was lawful. PERIOD.

And don’t get me started on the stupidity of calling it Islamophobic.

43 Islamic majority country’s citizens were NEVER banned. Only 7 were. They all had failed/failing governments who could not verify their citizens non-criminal, non-terrorist history.

If Trump’s act was to keep Muslim’s out, it was absolutely ineffective.

AG is the most important position in government now. Its both the most political and the most powerful.

AG controls everything regarding Fed.gov in our bureacratic/lawless/highly politicized society - from criminal and national security investigations to prosecution of crime (or completely ignoring crime) for all the laws in existence. This position has ultimate power.

And there’s only one side willing to weaponize it with no pushback.

Her only claim to fame is her short reign as acting attorney general in 2017, so of course she will spend the rest of her life dwelling on the politics of early 2017. The rest of us have moved on.

It was not a ban on bearded savages. It was a ban on entry from countries that didn’t vet their people well enough.

Although, banning bearded savages is a worthwhile cause in itself.

“Islamophobic”

Who cares if it was?

Islam is not a religion, it’s a political system - thus the plethora of “Islamic Republics”, two of which we started and sustain now since we invaded them.

The deliberate attempt by the Left to equate fear of Islam with racism undermines the rational imperative to recognize and deal with threats.

So, the official Democrat position is it would have been WRONG to keep terrorists and COVID out of the country?

Is that correct?

The Supreme Court found his travel ban lawful. So if she thinks it was unlawful, she won’t be a good AG now, will she.

“””WHERE is ANY REPUBLICAN holding a Press Conference to refute her lies????”””

Probably cheering her on and hoping for a Slow-N-Ho win so President Trump can’t expose their crimes.
