All Things Trump: Is it over yet?

A golden flow indeed...

And corroboration of another piece of the Steele dossier, a somewhat salacious one at that.

[Sean Hayden]

So, do they just learn the ins and outs of the thing and use it to embarrass Trump during the campaign or try to impeach him? Republicans have made it perfectly clear that they intend to defend Trump no matter what.

I vote for embarrassing the hell out of Trump from now till election day.

I don't think Trump can be embarrassed, but that would be better than an impeachment.

A year and a half later, the scapegoating has begun. Mr. Trump and his surrogates began attacking Mr. McGahn shortly after the report by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, revealed he was the chief witness to the president’s attempts to undermine the inquiry. In an interview on Monday, a member of Mr. Trump’s legal team challenged Mr. McGahn’s motives and memory and accused investigators of ignoring inconsistencies in his assertions.

“This is a cross-examination a law student could perform — by the time he’s finished, you would come to the conclusion he’s hopelessly confused” and would be “shaking,” Rudolph W. Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, said of Mr. McGahn’s interviews with investigators.

Many dissenting voices to Pelosi. Impeach the motherfucker!

I just came across a searchable version of the report, if anybody might find that useful. Myself, I'm still working my way through it the old-fashioned way.

Is it the full report, or are bits redacted?

You know, the bits about his lizard lord controllers...

I don't think the unredacted version, code-named Mueller Genuine Draft, is publicly available yet.

[pErvinalia]

Only Galaxian has seen that one.

[Joe]

If the House Democrats get their hands on it, we'll see it in bits and pieces as it leaks.

Oh, I can tell you about them. They're an insurgent faction of nihilists devoted to deathly black humour, secret worshippers of Yog-Sothoth. Quite mad, the lot of them.

Salon interview with a scholar:
How would you explain to the average person the threat that Donald Trump embodies to them personally, especially with his "national emergency"?

I would highlight the fact that among the statutes that are triggered by the declaration of a national emergency is that the president can control the internet. He can take over the media. The president can arrest people without cause. Under a national emergency, Donald Trump can basically declare what amounts to military law and become the dictator that, in his dreams, he imagines himself to be.

That is scary. This horrible outcome does not happen overnight. The earliest invocations of the emergency powers may look a little bit innocent. But authoritarianism creeps. It doesn't always gallop. And when authoritarianism envelops us, it may be too late to turn it back.

In this moment, what gives you the most hope? What are you most afraid of?
