After the Brexit vote, Politico asked an important question: why couldn't Obama stop Brexit?

politico.com/story/2016/06/…
"White House aides pushed back Friday on the idea that the Brexit was in any way a referendum on Obama."

...
Oh, I didn't know Obama met Jeremy Corbyn.

theguardian.com/us-news/2016/a…
"This wasn’t how aides on both sides of the Atlantic envisioned what would happen when Cameron called Obama last fall [Fall of 2015] to personally ask him to come join the campaign."

politico.com/story/2016/06/…
"It didn’t hurt that the Remain campaign, from the timing of the referendum to the voter outreach model, was all being orchestrated by Jim Messina, the president’s 2012 campaign manager and still informal political adviser."

If you want to know how "serious" Pamela Kaplan is, read these two pictures from Salon:

"Well, it’s no surprise that the Constitution doesn’t provide us with a way to deal with Trump, because they never assumed someone like him would become President..."

salon.com/2017/07/19/an-…
I keep writing "Kaplan" but it's "Pamela Karlan".
"We are convinced that Jeff Sessions will not fairly enforce our nation’s laws and promote justice and equality in the United States..."

Letter signed by many, many people, including Pamela Karlan, Laurence Tribe, et cetera.

"The battle to lead Trump’s potential impeachment"

"Reps. Zoe Lofgren and Jerry Nadler are vying to be the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee..."

December 18, 2017

politico.com/story/2017/12/…
Wonder what changed?

"Nadler, too, said impeachment must have substantial buy-in from erstwhile Trump supporters to to be worthwhile."

"There’s not much point in impeaching a president and having him acquitted in the Senate as happened with Clinton."
Nadler about potentially impeaching Trump in 2017:

"If you are actually going to remove a president from office, you are in effect nullifying the last election."

Medium won't let me log in despite multiple tries. For some reason, it's been very temperamental over the last two days.

No, I've not been banned.
This is driving me insane. It'll allow me to login but not be able to get to the screen that allows me to edit my "stories" without logging me back out.

Ridiculous.
Gotta complain about something, eh?

I've read parts of the Mueller report, but I've not read the entire document from start to finish. I'm going to do that now and will comment as I go along. I expect this will take me days to accomplish since I'll have to fit it in with my home & work responsibilities.

.@BarackObama at University of Illinois kicks off midterm campaign for Democrats and America’s future: Democracy should have no permanent ruling class. Citizens determine our course & our character. This moment is different. Consequences of sitting on the sidelines are dire. VOTE
Obama: Trump’s the symptom not the cause. Each time we pull ourselves closer to our ideals, of inalienable rights & responsibilities, the status quo pushes back. Sometimes the backlash is genuine. More often it’s manufactured by those who use fear to keep their power & privilege.
Obama schools students on the roots of today’s divisions & inequality: The politics of fear—pitting one group against another—is an old playbook. In a healthy democracy, it doesn’t work. When there’s a vacuum—we don’t vote, take our basic rights for granted, demagogues take hold.

#throwback to when Obama’s campaign was fined $375k by the FEC for violating finance laws. There are 2 rules of law in this country. One for hypocrite, establishment Dems and one for everyone else. Clean out this corruption, tear it all down. #Vote

Jeez. I left out HRC's laundering of $84 MILLION in DNC donations to illegally finance her campaign.
