couldn't get any other nation's leaders to make up a fictitious story of meddling to torpedo Biden, so Trump/Barr decide to do their own "investigation" of the investigators and then write a fictitious story blaming the democrats, Biden, Hillary, The FBI, The CIA, etc etc etc.
Basically that's what Barr did with Mueller's report when he issued his summary.......

I suspect the right will be holding hearings opposite impeachment hearings to blunt all of trump's bad news....

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died
Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long-stem rose
Everybody knows

This is exactly what he wanted from Ukraine...a statement that his enemies were being investigated. Of course, it's still going to cause expense and pain for the people caught up in it.

"I have people on the ground in Hawaii, and you wouldn't believe what they're finding."

against fascism. If Barr wins this has the potential of trump's political enemies being indicted, tried and jailed and democracy will be over.

If Nancy Pelosi and the House impeach trump's treacherous ass, we win whether the Senate convicts or not.

The situation is even more dire than just trump getting impeached.

in the past it was counter sue and turn complaints about Trump and his business practices around into the same or similar complaints against anyone who sued him.

It's a tactic Trump learned years ago from his personal attorney Roy Cohn.

Today it's counter investigate instead of counter sue since as POTUS he has more tools in his toolbox.

In AG Barr Trump has finally found his replacement for Cohn.

I agree with montanamama. We're in for a rough and wild ride.

The phoniness of rhe Barr investigations has to be exposed and discredited now before he can carry this sham any farther. Whatever it takes. If Barr brushes off the call to speak to Congress, which he probbably will, he needs to be exposed in some other way.
