Can @SenBlumenthal be the first of at least 48 U.S. senators to do this?

What's stopping legal communities from doing the same thing? Shouldn't we have a "5000 federal prosecutors call on Barr to resign" headline by now?

How about other organizations?
@SenBlumenthal How about major newspapers?

Major U.S. corporations.?

Religions?

Law schools?

Universities?

Civil Rights organizations?

Everyone who CARES about the rule of law needs to call for his resignation. Today.
@SenBlumenthal More:

State AGs.
U.S. Attorneys.
Governors.

@realDonaldTrump What's that Commander Corrupto? You've never directed the Attorney General to "do anything" in a criminal case?

#MuellerReport says differently.
@realDonaldTrump The old Attorney General pushed back. The new one does not.

Thirty hours ago news breaks that all four prosecutors in the Roger Stone case suddenly quit because Bill Barr interfered to give Stone sweetheart treatment on behalf of Trump.

Now imagine that THIS is what followed. 👇
All news networks immediately STOP covering the Dem Primaries of the 41st most populous and 2nd most white state in America.

Instead, they bring in every available legal expert to drill into the public's consciousness that the country is now in a rule-of-law crisis.
By 10:30pm all television stations cut to an emergency announcement from Speaker Pelosi.

She gravely states that Trump's and Barr's actions have severely damaged the rule of law and that House Dems will meet at 6am the following morning to decide on a course of action.

OK, here's what needs to happen: @RepJerryNadler needs to immediately start the process of subpoenaing Bill Barr and other DOJ officials to testify and provide documents.

The House uses their power of inherent contempt to jail anyone who refuses to appear or provide documents.
The House (@SpeakerPelosi ) has the power to jail violators for contempt. They either EXERCISE their power NOW or lose it forever.

Now ... GO!
@SpeakerPelosi PS - This is NOT the time to squabble about the pragmatics of arresting and jailing the AG. FIGURE IT OUT. These are desperate times.

The NY Times had 93 questions on Day 1, so we'll start with #94 today, as I may have missed some while doing TV.

94th question, from Sen. @PattyMurray (D-WA):
Can you further clarify the WH counsel's arguments that the subpoenas issued before the impeachment vote were invalid?
@PattyMurray Rep. Lofgren:
House issued rules on January 9, 2019, and the House's standing rules give each committee subpoena power to conduct their business. We have more power after an impeachment has been authorized.
@PattyMurray SOME DRAMA on the Senate floor -- 95th question is from Sen. @RandPaul -- and Chief Justice John Roberts declines to read it.

Question presumably includes outing Whistleblower, as multiple outlets report he tried to do yesterday.

Yoonmin au 🔞

Yoongi wakes up one day and realizes three things. He's five years in the future, filthy rich and engaged - to Park fucking Jimin, that annoying guy who crashes at their dorm and who Yoongi despises to hell and back - and has six months before they get married.
*time travel/parallel universe au
*everyone is confused
*enemies to lovers
*side namjin
*this has smut
*kinda fake relationship
So this is another fic I've been working on (: Enemies to lovers and all that good stuff with the twist of soul swapping through parallel universes. Yoongi is a hundred percent done with everyone in this and Jimin is barely on with the program. To those reading, enjoy!

1/16 It has begun. The GOP is spinning that the sole transcript Trump says he will release is more important than the #WhistleblowerComplaint as a tactic to insist everything should ride on this one supposed piece of evidence.

#ImpeachTrump #ImpeachmentParty #UkraineTranscript
2/16 All reports indicate this was a months-long conspiracy Trump and Giuliani were engaged in, subverting & bypassing officials who tried to stop them.

A single call does not BEGIN to give an accurate depiction of the events that lead up to this. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
3/16 And Trump already has a shady history with releasing information.

Forget the obvious like his tax returns, school grades, and secret meetings with Putin.

Actually, a reminder of those secret meetings:

Something's up. Peter #Strzok added Jessie Liu to his #SpyGate lawsuit.

2. Chairman @LindseyGrahamSC sent a letter to AG Barr urging him to work with Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz on declassifying key materials related to the FISA abuse investigation. judiciary.senate.gov/press/rep/rele… …
3. Judge Sullivan held a sealed #SpyGate hearing with Flynn and his defense counsel today to hear out their demand for security clearances. He told them he'd deal with their broader motion demanding more evidence from prosecutors before deciding the clearance issue. #QAnon #Q

Americans have been larping as Romans for as long as America has been around, and it’s probably no surprise that the most popular larp these days is Caligula
I hear a lot of you speaking your allegiance to the wisdom of the past, to tradition, or to Greek or Roman thinkers, but I don’t think you really believe in their teachings.
I think your tradition and your Greco-Roman philosophy is a cargo cult and my first exhibit is the fact that you are reading these words on a smart phone (is Greco-Roman like Judeo-Christian? Strange how empires routinely become enthralled to their vassals)

(MUELLER REPORT LIVE THREAD) This thread chronicles—in real time—the release of the Mueller Report, with news and analysis from a @Newsweek columnist and @NYTimes bestselling author (Proof of Collusion). Please retweet this thread widely for those you think might benefit from it.
1/ I want to start by offering my @Newsweek column from today (April 17), which sets the stage for what the Thursday (April 18) release of the Mueller Report will and will not be: newsweek.com/william-barr-r…
2/ I've also detailed errors made by media in the run-up to the release of the Mueller Report. If you read the @Newsweek piece atop this thread and then the thread below, you'll get a sense of what an accurate accounting of events is up against right now.
