By contrast, our Joe wrote the book on VAWA and passed it.
On the gop strategy of declaring victory before the results are in + using rabid media to parrot it as if true.
Flash back to 2000 and the Florida election scam:
“Republicans count on the national media to quickly repeat their conclusion. … That allowed Republicans to insist Bush had won, even after legal challenges to restrictive Florida voting laws and paid GOP protesters pressured officials in Miami-Dade County to halt their recount. When serious concerns emerge about the results, Republicans stand by the initial declaration of victory. Meanwhile, [they] charge that Democrats are being “sore losers” by asking legitimate questions about what is going on. The GOP then tries to force an ending to the controversy by running out the clock.” (Historian Julian Zelizer) https://www.salon.com/2019/04/01/trump-and-bill-barr-thought-theyd-put-the-russia-scandal-behind-them-they-havent/
“This past week showed that strategy working pretty well at first and then starting to lose strength as the Democrats fought back and the media began to look more closely at what they actually knew. The pressure grew enough that Barr felt the need to release another letter late in the week attempting some damage control.”
If you were innocent you’d want the whole report out there asap. You wouldn’t need a Barr fixer with an Iran/Contra and Iraqgate resumé.
Lies on top of lies make life like a bowl of oranges.
Happening. Cities and States are Modeling what a Green New Deal could look like: “In February, Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) introduced the Green New Deal resolution, a blueprint for overhauling the entire U.S. economy and transitioning to emissions-neutral energy sources within a decade.”
“As of March, at least 19 states are considering or have already set 100 percent clean or renewable electricity targets, according to EQ Research, a policy group that works on issues like energy efficiency and renewables. Not all of those efforts resemble the full spectrum of changes called for under the Green New Deal, however, as they focus predominately on electricity goals. But several of the plans incorporate language about jobs and social justice, with some directly referencing the Green New Deal as a source of inspiration. That’s significant because, without federal support, ground-up implementation could be how the Green New Deal ultimately becomes a reality. Ambitious energy targets alone are notable in several areas. Hawaii and California have enacted legislation to hit a 100 percent clean or renewable electricity target by 2045, while Washington, D.C., is aiming for 2032. And already this year, 10 more states have followed suit, introducing their own legislation to reach a clean electricity standard by 2050 or earlier.” https://thinkprogress.org/cities-states-green-new-deal-ocasio-cortez-b87147b4b47d/

3) Joe is the opposite of those guys.
4) Yes this could mean being less personable in politics in the current nasty Trump culture.
5) But you understand that EVERY guy running against Trump is at risk of him using this kind of attack.
6) Trump = Over 20 accusations of assault + underage rape, philanderer, self-confessed sexual predator, and ‘brutal’ Roy Cohn copycat strategist.
Huffpo: Instead please focus on stopping the faker and insane would-be dictator in the WH who is treating thousands of fleeing males and females of all ages in American jails like objects of his wrath and disgust. Like worthless slaughterhouse fodder. Can you do that?
Many young women are going to extremes these days. I say this as one of my daughters just told me she is not voting for Biden due to his inappropriate touching complaint against him. That she believes the women. I am gathering my info before countering her thoughts. There is a definite difference between people that touch your shoulder or arm while speaking to you or hugging you while talking to you to show their support than a person that gropes, touches in a sexual manner or rapes women and under age women. I know I actually appreciated people that would hug me or touch my arm or shoulder after my husband had died and I so missed the sense of touch in my life. Besides look at Biden’s record of sponsoring bills championing women’s issues. Instead of immediately believing what you hear look at the information carefully. Is that in their general character or part of their history? Does it meet the indecent criteria? Is there a reason someone would profit from the accused person being accused? Like I said I am gathering my info, but wonder if his age and being in office for so many years might give him a hard time anyway.

Just in: Mueller’s evidence on obstruction was alarming and significant — “much more acute than Barr suggested,” per one source. There was “immediate displeasure” among special counsel team members. WaPo matches NYT scoop tonight —> https://t.co/4HMI4wPdGq
One thing that struck me. Our sources say Mueller team really upset that Barr hasn't shared full story on the obstruction evidence they gathered. https://t.co/X9Vu5spBhm
A country where a president can avoid any accountability because his appointed AG neutralized a report and then hid it from the public is not a functioning democracy.
Mueller wrote summaries for different sections of the report so that Barr could immediately release them publicly, with minimum redactions so that “the work would have spoken for itself,” a U.S. official told WaPo. Barr did not release the summaries. https://t.co/4HMI4wPdGq

The entire purpose of Mar-a-Lago is so Trump has a place to shake people down for cash. And as has been clearly demonstrated, he'll take money from absolutely anyone. Secret Service is just another agency Trump has trampled and cast aside. The place is crawling with violation.

Trouble at mill yesterday.
1. “The day started bad when the House Judiciary Committee voted to authorize a subpoena of the Mueller report.
2. The committee also voted to subpoena five top Trump White House aides who have direct knowledge of the president’s obstruction of justice.
3. Members of Mueller’s special counsel team, who helped him write the 400 page report, began leaking that the report is actually rather bad for Trump, and that Attorney General William Barr had grossly misrepresented what the report says.
4. In what appears to be a coordinated effort by House Democrats, the House Ways and Means Committee formally requested that the IRS turn over Donald Trump’s tax returns within seven days.
5. The Miami Herald also reported that the FBI has secretly been running a counterintelligence probe for some time now into what Chinese operatives and other foreign spies have been doing at Mar-a-Lago.
6. Also yesterday, the House Oversight Committee issued subpoenas in Trump’s White House security clearance scandal.
7. It was revealed that Jared Kushner was given a White House security clearance by Trump even though he poses a clear national security risk.” https://www.politicususa.com/2019/04/04/attacks-from-every-direction-will-soon-bring-down-the-trump-presidency.html
“It is clear that his attempt to bury the Mueller report has failed, so the report and its underlying evidence will eventually come out. Soon we will find out what he’s been so desperately hiding in his tax returns. We’ll soon discover what caused Trump’s top advisers and family members to be rejected for security clearances. We’ll also find out how he has let spies into Mar-a-Lago, and continually threatened U.S. national security.” (Leo Vidal)

I was going say media is misleadingly indicating Mueller's team only objects to Barr's obstruction summary, but now, via NBC: "Mueller team [members] say his findings paint a picture of a campaign whose members were manipulated by a sophisticated Russian intelligence operation."
JUST IN: NADLER tells us the DOJ response is “irrelevant” to Barr’s decision to withhold the Mueller report from the House. He says House subpoena for the report will be issued quickly.
This is absurd. Barr has had 13 days to go to court &ask to have the grand jury material released, as Jaworski did in Watergate (+other sp prosecutors). He hasn't even bothered. That laconic pace poorly contrasts with his clearing of Donald Trump of obstruction charges in 48 hrs. https://t.co/Pud6lemIC7

Even as McConnell is lumbering the courts with long term judges…the corrupt illegitimate little russian president is going down. Are we at all curious about the hidden backstory on the compromised destroyer of the Senate?
By trying to bow to the evil corrupt Individual 1’s whims, barr put the DOJ in an untenable situation …. now every action will be scrutinized , …. the DOJ is in the line of fire;
millions saw with their own eyes or read reports about, members of Team Treason engage in wrong-doing (for me read criminal actions) before, during, and after the election.
…. now forces were activated to make these millions believe that what they in fact saw or read is “nothing to see here” ……. why does anyone expect people not to be outrage and suspicious????

Remember when gop constantly accused Dems of “ramming things through” after long, meticulous, public processes such as the ACA.
Well Rammer-in-Chief McConnell now wants to ram through 130 judges before the next election.

Even as McConnell is lumbering the courts with long term judges…the corrupt illegitimate little russian president is going down. Are we at all curious about the hidden backstory on the compromised destroyer of the Senate?
Tell it, Chef!
By trying to bow to the evil corrupt Individual 1’s whims, barr put the DOJ in an untenable situation …. now every action will be scrutinized , …. the DOJ is in the line of fire;
millions saw with their own eyes or read reports about, members of Team Treason engage in wrong-doing (for me read criminal actions) before, during, and after the election.
…. now forces were activated to make these millions believe that what they in fact saw or read is “nothing to see here” ……. why does anyone expect people not to be outrage and suspicious????
New post.

can anyone know the role of Rosenstein in all this mess???
From my old home state and the New Jersey Historic Preservation Office:
“TODAY is the 51st anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr … One week earlier in 1968, he visited New Jersey & spoke to students at Newark’s South Side High School, as well as a small congregation in Paterson, NJ.”
