Is there no time restriction for assigning committee members? Is there some kind of reprimand available for @GOPLeader's & @senatemajldr's obstruction by refusing to appoint Congress members to @HouseIntel? Can @RepAdamSchiff overrule to send transcripts to #Mueller?

/1

I mean seriously @GOP KNOWS (we ALL know) that MOST of the witnesses perjured themselves during testimony. They KNOW #Mueller can charge them as soon as he gets those transcripts. This is PURPOSEFUL delay & obstruction of justice. @DonaldJTrumpJr @jeffsessions @jaredkushner

/2

It's WORSE b/c they KNOW the "president's" campaign staff & his family have legitimate legal liability. Which includes some DIRECTLY (like @DevinNunes #WHrendezvous)

Can @RepAdamSchiff subpoena him or @mike_pence since they were senior transition members? #NoOneIsAboveTheLaw

I think all these bullshit loopholes/tactics that Republicans have been using for the past decade to obstruct investigations/nominations/etc is all the evidence you need to know that WRITTEN, EXPLICIT LAWS must be passed URGENTLY. @RulesDemocrats @KamalaHarris @RepMcGovern

How can we stop these assaults/abuses of the system by Republicans? From refusing to assign committee members (to delay an active counter-intelligence investigation) to gerrymandering, power shifts/grabs (Wisconsin), propaganda techniques (Fox), dismantling agencies (EPA)…

…or the dozens of other anti-democratic, UN-American tactics they're using to STEAL power from the people through excessive manipulation, and in some cases straight up crimes (#NC9)? HOW DO WE STOP THIS CORRUPTION⁉️We MUST take our country back! #CountryOverParty
