Here at #CAPIdeas, @RepAdamSchiff says to @AriMelber that “this administration is engaged in a wholesale cover up.”
More Schiff at #CAPIdeas: “I hate to call Bill Barr the Attorney General, I think he serves as the personal attorney for the president”
@AriMelber asks about deepfakes and disinformation campaigns. @RepAdamSchiff says if this is deployed by Russia - or anyone else - the current landscape of media polarization and rejection of truth means it would be harder to combat.
Schiff on Rosenstein: after writing the Comey memo, “that he would participate in the whitewashing of the institution ... and stand behind Bill Barr at the press conference ... is offensive”
“Let’s have Rosenstein come before Congress and the American people and articulate what happened.” -@RepAdamSchiff

The collusion is happening right out in the open this time
Last month, Trump’s lawyer actively sought to get a foreign government to attack Trump’s political opponents on Trump’s behalf.
Last week, Kushner refused to say he’d alert the FBI about foreign interference.
Now, Trump is openly saying he’d collude again.
Reminder: This is exactly what the Trump campaign did in 2016. They knew before anybody else how Russia would attack American democracy. They were even explicitly offered dirt on Hillary Clinton from the Russian government, and gladly accepted it. themoscowproject.org/dispatch/what-…

Barr Transcript - CBS Interview.

Barr: "The opinion says you cannot indict a president while he is in office but he could've reached a decision as to whether it was criminal activity but he had his reasons for not doing it, which he explained."
DOJ "doesn't use our powers of investigating crimes as an adjunct to Congress. Congress is a separate branch of government and they have processes, we have our processes. Ours are related to the criminal justice process we are not an extension of Congress's investigative powers."

Media outlets like @washingtonpost & @CNN published headlines claiming that @FBI Dir. #ChristopherWray said there was no evidence of #Spying on the Trump campaign.

The problem is, that wasn’t what Wray had actually said. (Thread 👇) theepochtimes.com/fbi-director-c…
With regard to #Wray’s comments on ”#spying,” he was actually responding to a question regarding the @FBI’s normal operations:

Shaheen: I’d like to follow up on Senator Moran’s question about the hearing we had with Attorney General Barr. Because, I was very concerned by his…
… use of the word “spying” which I think is a very loaded word. It conjures up a criminal connotation. I want to ask you and I’d appreciate a “yes” or “no” answer if possible.

When FBI agents conduct investigations against alleged mobsters, suspected terrorists, other…

Here’s every Republican president since 1961:

NIXON: Watergate

FORD: Pardoned Nixon

REAGAN: Iran-Contra

BUSH: Iran-Contra (plus I-C pardons!)

BUSH: Lied his way into war

TRUMP: Sought, received, and covered up electoral help from hostile foreign nation.

The rot is deep.
These are not minor scandals. This isn’t a deputy undersecretary taking football tickets from a lobbyist. This is a political party that, for 70 years, has at its highest levels believed itself above the law; above *democracy.*

So when some “establishment Republican” like Bill Barr goes to work for Trump and Very Serious People talk about how serious and high-minded he’ll be because of those establishment credentials, they have it exactly wrong. The GOP establishment is rotten.

06/01/2019 - 78 years ago today, the longest-serving #UnitedStates #President, #Franklin D. #Roosevelt (#FDR) addressed the 77th #Congress with his "#Four #Freedoms" speech with the intent to shift #US #foreign #policy from that of #neutrality to #interventionist.
#FDR promoted the idea that the people of the world, in all nations, shared entitlement to four freedoms: that of the freedom of speech and expression, the freedom of worship, the freedom from want and the freedom from fear.
#FDR is arguably one of the most 'successful' #US Presidents. Some would argue that on the basis of his numerous social policies such as 'the New Deal'. Others, however, would argue that his role during the second world war was more prevalent to his success & everlasting legacy.
