Tyranny without a tyrant. Privatizing the State Department, and letting Giuliani run it. The joke was always that New York City had it's own foreign policy under Giuliani. Guess power went to his head..

gain. This must really piss iff the good folks there as he runs amok and pisses on all they have done in the past. No foreign gov't can now thrust anything he, the Dept. or Trump say or do. Sad!

knocked down

Rudy doesn't know it, but he's got a new name, Patsy!

I just find it very strange that last night on Fox he talked about several bizarre happenings-- how someone from Ukraine told him that they'd tried to contact the FBI and how our State Department wanted him...they wanted RUDY to fix this! Rudy! Give me an R, a U, a D, a why!! a Why why why why why....

wait
wait
wait

Either he's delusional or he's being used. He's being set up to take the fall.

Take your pick. But the way things work with the Orange Lump the shit lands on someone else.

Rudy will be leading the Q contingent before long.

The levee has been breached, let the waters wash us clean.

who are not only so obviously just other gangsters like him, but certifiably stupid !!

Of course a lot, most. of his 'hires' were 'recommended' to him, which means whomever is running this show is just as evil as he is.

And yes, Ben 'The Knife" Carson is certifiably STUPID!!!!!!!!!

... I knew I had read of Giuliani making a few, "extra curricular", visits to the Ukraine to dig/create/push for any signs or witnesses of jaywalking, public littering or smiling at the wrong time by Hunter Biden. This fills in the blanks for those that have not been on top of the subject(s).

Giuliani who was 2nd or 3rd in command at DOJ. As a know nothing college student I got into a debate with him over drug policy. I used the facts he presented to us against him and made him look like a fool. He has always been an idiot riding the coattails of others work. What ever goodwill he earned after 9/11 will long be forgotten and he will be remembered as a shill for Dumbo.

He could write until it looked like the old book version of the Encyclopedia Britannica, and World Book all rolled into one.
He couldn't possibly write as fast as things were happening these past few years. He would need to be twenty years old, and he still might not finish writing before he croaked.....LOL

If one looks at the incredible amount that was written about Nixon and Clinton, think about the amount of shit that will be un-covered about this so called regime over the next fifty years and what will be written about it.

Once again, as a reminder, it's not TRUMP, it's the Republican Senate that is allowing/causing all this to happen. They are the key to this entire conflagration........

Nail the Republicans in the Senate and Trump will be gone in a second. The dems need to focus on every Republican Senator race until we win back a majority in the Senate also. Until that happens, WASF..............

19. Meddling in an investigation is obstruction of justice
Wed Sep 25, 2019, 11:33 AM

Mueller Section 1 looked into election issues and couldn't produce a smoking gun, but didn't clear Trump.

Mueller Section 2 looked at obstruction and called out at least 10 instances where anyone without a DoJ policy covering them could be indicted.

Rudy's statement from May admits he is aiding his client in obstructing on-going investigations.

Impeach Trump and put the rest in jail with him.

Fully expect Trump to try to do a blanket pardon covering everything before he leaves office and includes himself, i.e. any actions before 20 Jan 2021.
