It was a rubbish joke. Never mind :lol:


Barr has cancelled tomorrow because as far as I can tell, the Democrats had voted to allow staff members to question Barr. Probably something to do with Schiff recruiting some top lawyers to work for him and the intelligence committee.

Last thing Barr wants is a razor sharp lawyer drilling him on live TV

fecking called it.

The cnut Barr ain’t gonna testify tomorrow in front of the House panels. Says it is ‘inappropriate’ to answer staffer questions when such has been done in the past.

Speaks volumes that. Knew he was a coward. He knows that he tripped up badly today too.
Would have been roasted tomorrow. Can’t risk making any more of a mess. Shame..would have been fun.
Subpoena him now please.

She absolutely roasted him. Dems can't possibly have had an easier, more obvious invitation to use their Congressional powers against this adminstration. Grow a fecking pair and hang these scumbags out to dry please

Trias Politica is truly failing if the administration can continue to dictate Barr and some in the DoJ, or the Treasury for that matter to not responding to House requests. A true three way democracy it is not by any means and probably never was..but the amount of executive power the Rs gave to the WH since the Reagan years is truly disturbing.

This was all avoidable... if only Democrats didn't stay home on November 8, 2016. What a terrible, terrible mistake that was, and don't tell me "Hillary was bad" as we all knew what was the alternative!

So... Have we seen the end of the "I told you so" posters ITT? You've gotta be a blind arsehole to still be Stanning for Barr and the administration after all this surely?

On that left picture he looks a lot like Steve Bannon, feeds my theory that all these republicans are secretly all just one reptilian shipshifting entity out to destroy the world from within.

A) no one here is stanning for Barr, B) Trump isn't going anywhere because the democratic leadership are cowards and the republicans are domestic terrorists.

Trump has committed such a long list of crimes on an almost daily basis that you don't need the mueller report to impeach and imprison him. But it's not going to happen because the states political system is so broken and corrupt that it is wholly incapable of punishing the upper echelons of society for wrongdoing. The I told you so posters don't think Barr's summary was accurate (most of us don't anyway). But we think it is impossible for Trump to face the music in the political system he exists. Because the system is set up to protect him and sweep all crimes committed by the rich and powerful under the rug.

He has credibly been accused of rape, money laundering, accepting and facilitating personal bribes, finance campaign violations, national security violations and a shitload more crimes outside of the mueller report. And nothing has or will happen to him. Because there are deliberate gaps in the American criminal justice system that allow him and his class to get away with it.

Reading all of that, why would you want to even post "I told you so"?

I just don't get it, some of y'all were going after people for just following the story and hoping for the best.... You responded and tbh I don't remember you doing it, but if you were, why (knowing what you know)?

Personally I doubt anything is going to happen, but I hope it does...

it's a pushback to the "mueller time" memes, with tens of millions of Americans thinking a man complicit in the Iraq war, working in the political system he works in, is going to have even the smallest impact in dismantling the ingrained corruption of Washington.

Ok. I don't get it.... but I'm not privy to the interactions you might have had to get you to that point.
