Impeach already! 138 million;👓 still on “rigged”

 

 

 

 

IMPEACHMENT

future attacks

The Trump administration has not done near enough to prepare us for foreign attacks that undoubtedly will be made on our electoral system – nor to hold accountable those behind previous attacks (Helsinki). Career people have been ignored. This is simply unforgivable.

— Eric Holder (@EricHolder) April 19, 2019

start the process

On impeachment:

1) We're just 18 months from election day, providing some flexibility to HJC on timing.

2) There's abuse that Mueller didn't mention. (Posts incoming)

3) There's other shit that is akin to Mueller report coming down the pike.

Start the process.

In light of Barr’s handling of the Mueller Report, I’d like to see what career ethics officials at DOJ think about the need for him to be recused for the spin off cases going forward. He should not oversee any of them. https://t.co/fRw8lTO2uY
