“Cohn, a former president of Goldman Sachs, evidently understood that it would be highly improper for a President to use the Justice Department to undermine two of the most powerful companies in the country as punishment for unfavorable news coverage, ....”

Jane Mayer reports Trump ordered Gary Cohn to pressure the DOJ to file the lawsuit to block the AT&T/Time Warner lawsuit … https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/03/11/the-making-of-the-fox-news-white-house



If proven, such an attempt to use presidential authority to seek retribution for the exercise of First Amendment rights would unquestionably be grounds for impeachment.

and gulping down their blood, then wiping the blood from his chin, looking directly into the camera and proclaiming 'Because of my bargain with Satan, I must daily feast on the blood of innocents to sustain myself, so I can make America Great Again!'.

They'd just go 'Welp, okay then, we understand! You gotta do what you gotta do, Sir! Boy, I bet the libtards really hate this video!'

We literally cannot accomplish anything to stop this madman ... as long as a large group of insane citizens continue to pressure their GOPper Senators to support Trump no matter what.

Until you reign in your lying spouse and her alternative universe, you've got nothing to offer.

In fact, your phony anti-Trumpism merely feeds into the "both sides are the same" narrative since you're married to the second biggest bullshitter in D.C.

Thanks for nothing.
