Muellers report released

If you are against crime, drop all civil rights.  Otherwise you hurt the cops and help the mob.

Well, that's an easily falsiable statement.  You have constitutionally-protected-rights that do not impede the police or support illegal mob activity.  Though Trump might offer you a job at the Dept of Justice.

You prove my point.  Rights and law enforcement depend on partisan political membership.

Not quite.  But  "Rights and law enforcement" can be suborned at high levels...  Which is why there are 3 branches of government here that can check the others if they have the will.

All the guys named Bill are excluded for that reason ;-)

William Barr, Donald Trump's attorney general has recently hidden the Mueller Report resulting in widespread criticism. But it turns out Republican Attorney Generals, like Bill Barr, have a long history of covering up republican crimes, from Nixon to Trump.

Historian Lamar Waldron joins the program to expose the history of corrupt Republican politicians, conspiracies and cover-ups.

This guy Barr has been around the block a few times!

[Baruch]

Thought you claimed Mr Barr had been in the Nixon administration.  My bad.

I think the most recent D-party attorney generals were pretty awful ... Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch for example ;-(

[Unbeliever]

Yeah, Holder was found to be in contempt of congress, but I don't blame him - congress is worthy of nothing but contempt.

You just like guys who are "Fast & Furious".  So meeting Lynch on some airport tarmac isn't sexy?

Rep. Charlie Crist, D-Fla., asked U.S. Attorney General William Barr to explain what he meant when he wrote in his letter to Congress that special counsel Robert Mueller's report does not exonerate President Donald Trump on the question of obstruction of justice. Barr demurred, saying: "That's a statement made by the special counsel." Barr said he couldn't comment further until the report has been released. What Mueller meant by exonerate "is really a question that I can't answer," Barr said.

Barr doesn't know what "does not exonerate" means?

[Baruch]

Government contracting = lowest bidder
Government employee = lowest intelligence?

The Republican "base" is aptly named, because they are "base" - not following or in accordance with standards of honor and decency:  contemptible, currish, despicable, detestable, dirty, dishonorable, execrable, ignoble, ignominious, low, low-down, low-minded, mean, nasty, paltry, snide, sordid, vile, wretched. Hillary Clinton was being nice when she called them "a basket of deplorables."

Give all the Dems a French passport and time travel to Madame Tussaudes.

I prefer the little wax bottles with Coke in them.
