The alleged evidence against Duncan Hunter and Chris Collins is overwhelming. Their fates will be decided by juries of their peers, but it is beyond imagination that anyone who claims to care about law and order would want their indictments delayed so they could win their elections in November.In 2016, a politicized DOJ added a requirement for intent to 18 USC 1924 so they could avoid charging Hillary for what appeared to be a clear violation of that statute. During the investigation, the attorney general held a secret meeting on a tarmac with Bill Clinton. Conservatives rightly lost their minds about the DOJ being used as a political tool. No conservatives complained when Robert Menendez was indicted during an election season, and rightly so.

Comon. You don’t agree with Trump that this is fishy? There is no justice at the DOJ right now________________
Worst tweet ever? You don’t read much, I guess________________
Worst
DOJ / FBI Have Fallen —
If you call yourself a conservative … Yes… aren’t outraged by this — … No , Not outraged … — please take a second to take stock of how far you have fallen.

LOL… yes, there is quite a selection to choose from.
Re: DOJ / FBI Have Fallen —
You’re something, but it ain’t a conservative. Conservatives care about the rule of law. Politics and the law are a game to rich folks – and Trump is no different. All of them believe they are above the law – and it can be bent to their purposes.Whether its the METOO movement, or Trump, or Clinton….all of these guys have had folks bend the rules for them for a long time. Most of us poor folks have no idea how much they are all getting away with.So – to Trump this is how its done. I believe in Sessions and I believe he does everything above board. He may lose his job – but his credibility will still be intact. But – for Trump – he’s just doing what he has always done – not just for 2 years – but for 50 years.Remember that guy in the Bible that was about to get sacked by his employer – so he started cutting the amounts owed to all those who owed money to his boss? Jesus commended him for knowing how the sinful world actually worked…that those guys would do him favors later once he was out of a job. Trump knows how the world really works – not how we think it does. Bullying, intimidation, quid pro quo – it’s how its done. Everyone pretending otherwise is just doing it for show.Trump feels the only true mistake made was hiring an honest dude like Sessions – who he feels just doesn’t get how things work. He should have got some dude totally in the tank for him like Obama________________
I don’t think I’ve ever said or thought this concerning an NBF post — but I couldn’t agree more.I don’t think there’s a ton of intentional underlying malice here. I think Trump legitimately has absolutely no idea why that sentiment is not OK, because that’s how he’s always done things. Why should his view of the DOJ be any different than his view of anything else?
Looks like I’m not the only one with this thought —
I do not read Trump’s Twitter feed, but I am sure I have heard worst tweets he has made from media outlets________________
You’re something, but it ain’t a conservative. Conservatives care about the rule of law. President Trump’s tweet — did not break the rule of law.Our not being outraged by President Trump’s tweet — did not break the rule of law.
Tom Delay-guilty-overturned.Former Virginia Governor McDonald-guilty- overturned.Casper Weinberger indicted on eve of 1992 election. Overwhelming evidence. Charges dropped after Bush loses to Clinton. I can find many more examples.Prosecutors are largely liberal and know how to shop for a like-minded jury________________
Contra Trump, both of these investigations began after he assumed office.In the case of Chris Collins, the investigation was led and charges were filed by Geoffrey Berman, a former partner of Rudy Guiliani’s, who was personally interviewed and hand-picked by the president to replace Preet Bharara.Care to try again?
NO! I didn’t like the TWEET, but then I don’t like most of the tweets. I am not a tweeter and don’t even like the name.I have said it many times, Quit the tweet and fire somebody! For heaven’s sake if you have the authority to change something, use it.Call him up and chew him out if you are actually right.And yes I understand his ‘reasoning’, the press will print a stupid TWEET but not a statement as soon. Press conferences, press release calling someone on the carpet.I can’t imagine not liking what my framers had done on a house and calling the news paper and telling them them, Crew ‘A’ sucks bilge water! No I would call the crew in and say, if you want more jobs from me, you will fix that mess you just turned out! Why would I embarrass a crew when what I want is a GOOD job.Would a pastor announce to the church that the Clerk had made a STUPID mistake and not paid the light bill for two months! NO, NEVER you may need his help later, you have a talk with him/her and try to FIX the problem. What you want is a smooth running manager.Yep I get sick of TWEETS!
