Well worth the read.
Well worth the read. As Mueller probes #DonaldTrump's tweets for hints of obstruction, Donald Trump tweets an obstructionist tweet. Can you imagine the feigned righteous fury that would have erupted if Obama, Clinton or Clinton had tried to shut down an investigation?
But, of course, the #GOP doesn't care. They're not interested in truth or justice, they're interested in their backwards agenda, partisan politics and blaming progressives for solving a modern America's problems.
In #TrumpNation the #Republican party is strangling itself. I actually had a friend on FB the other day try to tell me that all these "Reagan Republicans" leaving the Republican Party over the party’s coalescing around Trump were RINOs and not true Republicans. Apparently, onlyTrump Putin Republicans are true to the ideology anymore.

WODI = "What if Obama had Done It? So now DT tries to order a halt to those investigating him? (As Nixon did.) Can you imagine the shrieks if Clinton/Obama had tried that? Dig this well. Half a billion dollars of mostly our money was spent — across 25 years — investigating the Clintons/Obama, the most thoroughly probed humans in the history of our species. Every document scrutinized, nothing withheld, every micro assistant grilled. Half of all subpoenas issued by lazy-ass GOP Congresses were part of that futile, desperate search. But Clinton/Obama never demanded the investigations stop.
George Bush diverted federal investigators from anti-terror duties, before 9/11 (which should have been a huge scandal) to sift every federal filing cabinet for some smoking gun. The Kochs offered gigantic rewards for whistle blowers to rat out the alleged "secret Clinton deals and travesties." Fox offered lucrative commentator posts and other incentives.
And after all that, what did we wind up with? A husband fibbed about some third base adult-consensual infidelity in a hallway... and the wife was caught using exactly the same sort of somewhat improper email system as Colin Powell, Dick Cheney, John McCain, Mike Pence, George Bush and Jared Kushner. That's... it.
Compare that to Mueller already filing almost a hundred charges against almost two score individuals with confessions and convictions already piling up. Daily we see behaviors that demand we ask: "WODI?" Secret meetings with hostile dictators, ongoing acts-of-war against our elections and infrastructure. We're finding the top GOP tiers are filled with boy-buggerers, pedophiles, playmate-bribers, casino-mafiosi, kremlin-stooges and monopolists.
We see a confederate right that's been fox-riled into howling - without a mote of evidence - for the heads of our 250,000 loyal professionals in the FBI, Intelligence Agencies and US military officer corps. We see open war against every single fact-centered profession - name one exception. And every single national strength that won us the Cold War is being systematically demolished, as if by an enemy occupier.
No member of the Greatest Generation that defeated Hitler, contained communism, built the great American Middle Class, joined strong unions, broke up monopolies, built strong alliances and adored FDR - not even the few republicans of that era - would shirk their duty to slap every nowadays republican hard, across the face, and call them traitors.
But worst of all... what a whiner! The freaking president of the United States, who controls the government(!) with a friendly Congress and Court running interference, moans and shrieks and sobs daily because "the government" is after him in order to ... in order to... in order to show the people what's been hidden from them. That's it. The complaint of Two Scoops and the entire Fox Cabal. "Stop revealing stuff to the people!!!"
WODI. Release the tax returns.
