1. Thank God for people like you, Rick. And I mean Republicans who call it like it is. And who still know what the word Republican ACTUALLY means. On this, a few thoughts: NO, not everything is relative. Mueller DID find collusion AND obstruction. He just COULDN'T charge the Don.
2. Obstruction he WOULD have charged for, but good ole BARR got in the middle of that and forced Mueller to strictly follow a memo that is , I remind you, NOT A LAW but an internal regulation. So it CAN be ignored. Collusion, he couldn't make enough people TELL THE TRUTH on.
3. The essential initial point the Mueller report makes is that a hell of a lot of witnesses LIED THROUGH THEIR TEETH. And repeatedly. if you don't have truthful witnesses, you can't corroborate evidence. The threshold for criminal indictments is HIGH. Must have witnesses.
3. While Barr interfered with the very recently opened SDNY case with Cohen evidence and the related Trump hush money campaign crimes, a specific and limited matter, he CANNOT interfere on what's gone on long before that is MUCH wider in scope. Hence why in the end DT WILL lose.
4. And by CANNOT I don't mean Barr hasn't tried. I mean it's WAY too big and widespread & with way too many people involved for him to succeed in his attempts. That's just a fact. When investigations start long before and involve those many people and branches, they go on, period
5. The Epstein case is going to be the Waterloo of the Trump lackey wagon. It's already claimed the first victim (Acosta) and it will claim SO many others, I can't even begin to explain. While Barr has not recused, rest assured he soon will be FORCED to. Mark my words.
6. And even if Barr didn't recuse, this thing already has a life of its own and what's going on in FLORIDA, of all places, is proof of it. I have said many times that in the end, a sexual scandal will take down Trump. and by golly, it sure looks like it. SMH.
7. I know everything looks horrible right now and that every day a new low is reached... but look at what's developing with Epstein, too and get moving and keep fighting, bc getting depressed won't help anyone.
8. Impeachment is not a magic solution to everything. If it's done, it must be timed VERY carefully bc what matters here is making CERTAIN that Trump LOSES in 2020. So pls focus on what matters here: which is getting rid of this monster.
9. I want a statement of principle and to see Trump squirm just as much as you all do: but I'm not willing to risk 2020 over principle. So sure, let's include impeachment, but only if we have overwhelming evidence AND if it's timed PERFECTLY. Stay strong. Keep fighting. WIN! /END
