Bill Barr and Rudy Giuliani, aggressive Trump loyalists, are going to have a lot of explaining to do — under oath, most likely — for their roles in the Ukraine whistleblower saga. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
Here’s the whistleblower’s complaint in re the Trump - Zelensky - Biden call:
intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
From the declassified whistleblower’s complaint:
“The President's personal lawyer, Mr. Rudolph Giuliani, is a central figure in this effort. Attorney General Barr appears to be involved as well."
And this pretty much seems to define what Trump and the White House mean when they want Zelensky and the Ukrainians to "play ball." It's tied to receiving military aid.
Synopsis:
"They had witnessed the President abuse his office for personal gain."
Cover-up:
"Trump urged Zelenskiy to work with Barr and Giuliani to collect dirt on Biden, a staggering demonstration of the president’s casual and routine lawlessness." #WhistleblowerComplaint

I take it back, @NicolleDWallace

Barr held private meetings overseas with foreign intelligence officials seeking help in a DOJ inquiry President Trump hopes will discredit US intel agencies’ examination of Russian interference in the 2016 election:

washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
@NicolleDWallace It's “fairly unorthodox for the attorney general personally to be flying around the world as a point person to further evidence-gathering for a specific Justice Department investigation.”
@NicolleDWallace "The appointment of John Durham — a seasoned, nonpartisan prosecutor — provided some reason to believe that it would be handled in a professional, nonpartisan manner. But if the attorney general is essentially running this investigation, that entire premise is out the window.”

Trump suggested on Twitter last night that the country may have to endure a civil war should he be impeached and removed from office. So a timeline detailing how Trump got to this point is in order. And...he’s been avoiding paper trails his entire life bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
Past is always prologue for Trump.

“I imagine that Trump was averse to a taping system in his business (and at the White House) for the same reason he was averse to email: It created a record he might not want other people to see.”
In addition to warning of civil war, Trump took to Twitter to accuse Representative Adam Schiff, the Democrat spearheading the impeachment inquiry, of “Fraud & Treason” and to demand that he be allowed to meet the whistle-blower who might have been “SPYING on the U.S. President?”

“We’re at war,” Trump said, referring to the whistle-blower in a 15-minute video obtained by Bloomberg News. “These people are sick. They’re sick.” bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
“I’m the most presidential except for possibly Abe Lincoln when he wore the hat. That was tough to beat,” Trump said. But he added: “I have better hair than him.”
“You know these animals in the press. They’re animals. Some of the worst human being you’ll ever meet,” Trump said. “They’re scum. Many of them are scum.”

Rudy Giuliani can't stop undercutting American interests abroad—especially when it comes to Eastern Europe. thinkprogress.org/rudy-giuliani-…
1. Giuliani's efforts in Ukraine really are as bizarre as they are abominable, especially for those backing Kyiv's efforts at cementing democratic practices. And they set an unsettling precedent for the U.S. thinkprogress.org/rudy-giuliani-…
2. Last year, Giuliani also wrote a letter to Romanian authorities, accusing them of... being too efficient in cracking down on corruption. (Giuliani was paid to write the letter, on behalf of a lobbyist for one of those corrupt politicos.) thinkprogress.org/rudy-giuliani-…

Shocker: Bill Barr—appointed AG after giving Trump a 19-page memo saying Trump didn't obstruct justice—just exonerated Trump of obstruction of justice. Mueller specifically said "this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him"
Mueller couldn't establish corrupt intent for obstruction of justice b/c Trump refused to talk w/ investigators. W/o putting Trump under oath, Barr exonerates him. Barr was put in charge of DOJ to salvage the GOP—even if it meant letting Trump get away with everything. Shameful.
.@JeffreyToobin points out the impropriety of AG Barr concluding no obstruction of justice when the whole point of appointing a special counsel was b/c Trump’s political appointees—like AG—have an inherent conflict of interest. And now we see, AG Barr is indeed Trump’s lackey.
