Hide the Mueller report, attack ACA

 

IMPEACHMENT

continuing

Chief Judge of DC District Court in hearing today (over mystery foreign-govt-owned company subpoenaed by Mueller last summer to give up docs in a crim matter):
Is the grand jury investigation over?

Federal prosecutor: “No it is continuing. I can say it’s continuing robustly.”

Interesting. Always blurrng the lines in his favor. Can he be indicted in a personal capacity? https://t.co/KMwVWKH0tw

"No matter what Mueller report contains, a harsh verdict remains: Trump and his gang betrayed the United States in the greatest scandal in American history." – @DavidCornDC https://t.co/tjaNf6CWJr

CA – 1 billion

This is so bizarre: In the days preceding the conclusion of the Mueller report, Trump’s 2020 campaign manager/digital strategist Brad Parscale was in Romania, outlining his $1 billion strategy to get Trump re-elected. https://t.co/67aOZDXpY1

separation of powers

Here's a concern I have legally.

Both Jaworski and Starr avoided saying, "The President obstructed justice," to avoid a separation of powers issue.

What happens now that Barr has stomped on separation of powers, wrt referral issues? @Delavegalaw @neal_katyal

exonerate?

Which is more incriminating for the subject of a federal investigation?@Comey's "very careless"

or

Mueller's "does not exonerate"? https://t.co/KDVVIzLVuh

cover-up

This is a cover up.
AG Barr was working with the defense lawyers before he became AG. His “summary” is his own opinion.
The ENTIRE MUELLER REPORT should be delivered to Congress. Members with security clearances should read the ENTIRE THING.
NOW.https://t.co/DCepZkRddj

redactions/executive priviledge

Graham says Barr told him it would likely take “weeks not months” to get a version of the Mueller report viewable by the public. Said they will pass through the WH to see if they want to make redactions under executive privilege.

redacted summary

This says Barr isn't even going to send a redacted version of the full Mueller report. He's going to write a summary of the Mueller report, and send that instead. We don't even know how long the Mueller report is. https://t.co/XIvg5riROW pic.twitter.com/7Kjra7xVt5

why secret?

If the Mueller Report wasn’t damaging, if it completely exonerated Donald Trump, you wouldn’t be able to walk down the street this week without tripping over stacks of printed copies.

defeated purpose

By asserting himself on Mueller's recommendations, Barr has defeated the purpose of the Special Counsel rule that is designed to give Americans confidence that decisions were made free of political considerations. -Barbara McQuade, former U.S. attorney pic.twitter.com/wNAAQGUXVE

George Conway: Mueller "plays by the rules, every step of the way. If his report doesn’t exonerate the president, there must be something pretty damning in it about him, even if it might not suffice to prove a crime beyond a reasonable doubt." https://t.co/0NvxOtmdSr

What will an "emboldened" @realDonaldTrump do?

–Eliminate pre-existing conditions coverage & entire ACA

–Cut millions from Special Olympics

–Make it easier to sell flamethrowers to countries (not making this up)

Getting rid of the Affordable Care Act is going to come with very big political and human costs.

You can tell that partly from the way Democrats campaigned more on saving health care than on anything else, and won in 2018. pic.twitter.com/vX7oNtz94i

M4A losing

Lots of contenders cosponsored M4A in 2017, making it seem like Bernie supporters from '16 could shop around in '20. But Bernie is back to being lonely in making the outright case for single payer. Which may explain why his support has proven sticky.https://t.co/w8MllVy7ty

incremental

This Sanders answer whether he would support House Dem legislation to improve ACA is pretty interesting. He says "no" and says he doesn't support any incremental reforms, which is quite a departure from his record. He's voted for all kinds of incremental reforms including ACA
