Tom Toles for March 26, 2019

Low Barr indeed….

That barr is just another of Bonespurs’ worms.

Donald Tяump is a career criminal, racist, malignant narcissist, serial sexual assaulter and misogynist, pathological liar, money launderer, and a traitor who is an obvious asset of a hostile foreign power. Those are indisputable facts, and anyone who doesn’t hate him for it and continues to support him is, in actual fact, contemptible.

Moreover, Tя☭mp’s Republican Party has degenerated to the point that it perfectly represents the approximately 1/3 of Americans who are anti-establishmentarians, right-wingers, fascists, gun nuts, crazed Christian Dominionists (including Evangelicals and Right-to-Lifers), racists, “poorly educated” authoritarian followers/leaders, and proudly nasty MAGA types who are all ‘round general purpose haters. What this lunatic rabble has in common is that they don’t play well with others. Thus decent, intelligent people can no longer be Republican. As much as we might wish otherwise, this sorry bunch isn’t going to change and isn’t going away. Be warned: “If conservatives become convinced that they cannot win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy.” ~ David Frum

There is such an obvious conflict of interest here. The president’s appointee gets to summarize the report, while Republicans in Senate get to decide if report can be made public.

Oh boy. Two elephants in the room.

Time to reconsider the GOP’s mascot. i suggest a dinosaur.

Barr didn’t set the bar, Mueller did, and he did his job thoroughly, professionally, and didn’t find what you convinced yourself was already true.

Can you believe the American people voted for those jerks?

Trump Campaign Asking Networks to block Schiff, Nadler, others from appearing.

@guyjen2004 Apparently Barr also did the job he was hired for, which was following up on the June 2018 position paper he authored stating a president could not be indicted for obstruction of justice. Thereby he would have to not have been doing anything against the law when he was obstructing justice .

Russia, if you’re listening, can you get us a copy of the Mueller report?

Subpoena the report: the whole report, not the Republican Digest version.

Just because something isn’t illegal, doesn’t mean it’s right.

Remember that Obama beat McCain in 2008 and Romney in 2012. A black democrat. So this coming election is going to be less about beating the Trump cult, and more about beating the Oligarch’s dark money. Let the Dems sort out the over stock of candidates then plan on giving early and often. This is literally the American Way on the line this time.

Health Care is under attack from the GOP already (so massive bloc of highly motivated voters there), income inequality is still growing with entire generations stuck in gig economy making less than living wages, kids are tired of the stress of potentially being gunned down at school and will vote.

Donald J. Trump is a despicable human being. That he occupies the Oval Office says more about the electorate than it does of him.

Trump’s moral and other shortcomings have numbed the public to the degree they are no longer surprised by each new offense he makes.

Guess it’s easy to say “EXONERATE” if you don’t understand the word and it’s usage.
