Time to start locking people up with Inherent Contempt

[NewJeffCT]

Since the border detention centers are supposedly like summer camps, I say pack them all into the House jail. It's certainly better than a border facility. Or, ship them to a border detention center so Lewandowski, McGahn, Conway, Hicks, Donaldson, Porter and everybody else can have a taxpayer funded summer camp.

Unprecedented Obstruction requires strong responses.

1. +1 I have nothing but contempt for Trump and his contemptible minions.

And they have nothing but contempt for America.

2. well

with Trump "ORDERING" people not to comply with subpoenas and claiming executive privilege over people that never worked in the White House (Lewandowski) to limit their testimony, they need to really start playing hardball. The DOJ is submissive to Trump's wishes as well, so are not going to enforce subpoenas from criminal referrals.

3. Yes it is time

to do that. Past time, in fact.

4. Yup.

Should never have given the first inch.

5. No just another can of worms

If we open that Pandora’s Box it WILL be used against us later. Had that been used recently before the Obama administration they would have used it against Eric Holder. Should it be used now guaranteed the next Democratic administration will have it used against them.
Similar to changing the filibuster rules when I warned that won’t end well now look at the judiciary.

6. Team Trump is shredding the Constitution

while we dither over using a step like inherent contempt that was used regularly for the first 150 years of our country.

8. Fuck the Gangsters Of Putin

Let's deal with the snakes in the living room now; the hypothetical wolf outside the door may not materialize.

11. The way I see it

Yes, Republicans may take revenge on a future Democratic president, but if Trump isn't stopped soon, there may be no future Democratic president.

I'll take my chances invoking Inherent Contempt and potential revenge from Republicans over losing the Constitution and the republic.

7. I have been trying to say this. Not very popular here on DU it seems.

[NewJeffCT]

10. fiddling while the Constitution burns

IMO

If Trump isn't stopped soon, there will be no revenge against a Democratic president to be had in the future.
