So... no evidence...

If there was Barr would have said so...

Horowitz is going to disappoint you again for the second time.

I'm quoting someone... you're spouting factless nonsense... hence the echo around here.

You're right. You're WAY MORE partisan than me.

What we do know is that you and hcap won't need Viagra anytime soon...

Can you redcard yourself?

Honestly, what about that post got you all fired up. Trump will lose the court fights over his taxes, subpoenas, and McGahn... when that happens the landscape may change.

It wasn't partisan at all... to quote your above post.

Real Lawyers keeping note is kinda sexy. Particularly when it comes back to bite Chumpy in the butt

The White House Will Fight McGahn Subpoena Because His Public Testimony Could Be a Knockout Blow
https://slate.com/news-and-politics/...er-bullet.html

The White House is planning to fight the House Judiciary Committee’s subpoena of former White House counsel Don McGahn, the Washington Post reports, as part of a broader attempt to stonewall Democrat-led efforts to have key figures testify before Congress in the wake of the Mueller report’s publication. The White House says it will invoke a broad interpretation of executive privilege to keep current and former members of the administration from testifying under oath before Congressional subcommittees.

....McGahn’s extensive testimony to Robert Mueller’s investigators is key to the obstruction of justice case against the president laid out by the special counsel. McGahn told investigators that he rebuffed Trump’s orders to fire Mueller and when those orders were made public by the New York Times six months later he refused the president’s directive to lie and deny it occurred. McGahn’s centrality in the Mueller report’s obstruction findings would make him an all-star witness for Democrats in Congress. To Trump, the public testimony of the former White House counsel articulating what appear to be crimes, along with general madness and dysfunction, could be devastating to his presidency.

.......At one point, Trump asked McGahn why he had told Mueller that he tried to fire him. McGahn explained that their conversations were not protected by attorney-client privilege. The president then asked, according to the Mueller report, “What-about these notes? Why do you take notes? Lawyers don’ t take notes. I never had a lawyer who took notes.” McGahn told Trump he keeps notes because he’s a “real lawyer.”

A real lawyer, huh. That, to me, sounds like someone who swallowed everything for two years and might just be dying to testify.

Can you gents spell P-a-r-o-n-o-i-a?

Paranoia is the irrational and persistent feeling that people are 'out to get you'. The three main types of paranoia include paranoid personality disorder, delusional (formerly paranoid) disorder and paranoid schizophrenia.

I vote for all three. Perhaps there will be more types discovered when he is forced to disclose his taxes and finances?

4 hours after they announced the Mueller report would be released, hcap had to call a doctor.

We used to just throw cold water on them

The White House telling former and current officials to refuse to obey subpoenas is certainly an interesting legal strategy...

Not really. Too bad they could not find an actual crime to base these subpoenas on eh. This WILL get ugly.
