Comment from : @DaveWitham-td8lj

The FBI went after Trump's criminal activities, and Trump wouldn't go after them Trump is vengeful it's a mental disorder that Trump has, and he can't control And he doesn't realize he has this disorder he thinks it normal Trump doesn't realize these FBI were just doing their job nothing personal he needs psychotic help

Trump needs to be impeached immediately!!!
Comment from : @Bammer9012

This is classical would be dictator methodology, just look at history, defenestrate the political opposition, remove those in the best position to oppose you, attack and paralyse law enforcement, attempt to close down press opposition, promote a "look over there" approach to the public, install sycophants and mainly completely incompetent people into roles of authority, orchestrate attacks on one segment of society blaming them for all the countries problems, ALL of this is classical out of the Germany 1936 playbook Hitler rose to power because of the backing of powerful industrialists in Germany and the apathy of the German people, Trump is being backed by todays influencers, Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg et al That did not end well for Germany and I suspect this is also not going to end well for America

Comment from : @Lillymclilly11

Andrew Weissmann and Robert Mueller are guilty by allowing Trump to get away with unlawful activity because they could "not reach a conclusion about possible obstruction" in the Mueller Report They made the foolish assumption that congress would hold Trump accountable

Comment from : @ckveraa8

If it was illegal , they could do something, There is nothing illegal about dismissing Federal employees!!brIt doesn't matter what they did or or are doingbrThat's like saying line assemblers at an automotive can't be let go because they were doing their jobsbrThe Government departments are bleeding $$$$ and Dems claim it's illegal to get rid of employees is nutsbrThe Democrats will find out its not illegal!!
Comment from : @danvetor1365

This is the new Republican Oligarchy They have the goal of dismantling every arm of all three branches of government that can hold those in power accountable to the law This is the elimination of the constitutionally inscribed checks and balances on power government-wide Changing the laws through Congress is time-consuming and difficult since it was constitutionally designed to be a democratic and deliberative process If enough power is garnered by any one political faction they can over time affect everything legally and constitutionally But Republicans do not have that level of power and time is so of the essence that they are effectively unable and unwilling to follow the constitutionally prescribed process to legislate Instead, they are circumventing the constitution To do so they must break the law and violate their oaths The first step in this is to decimate the law enforcement agencies that could investigate and prosecute these crimes These are the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) brbrThis is underway now and both agencies have been effectively decapitated brbrWe are witness to the transformation of the world's first and most successful democracy being destroyed and replaced by the new Republican Oligarchy There is nothing new or progressive with oligarchies- every King & his Kingdom were oligarchies It is the modern-day equivalent of the Monarchy, with divine right replaced solely by financial might If the new Republican Oligarchy is successful, America as a democracy will be terminated This is the most dangerous moment for America since the Civil war, and the struggle is once again between what are fundamentally the same two factions in both the Civil war and today's battle: those who believe in the Democrat ideal that All Men are Created Equal, and those who do not

Hey Mr Weissmann how many times have you been sanctioned by a federal judge for lying and withholding exculpatory evidence ? I know it's been more tham once and you should have been put in prison

Steps to becoming an authoritarian ruler #1 -appeal to radical elements to get elected #2 - Install judges that support your agenda #3 - Install loyalists at all power points in government #4 - Control the press We are at #3 and transitioning to #4

Unfortunately the ruling ny SCOTUS regarding Presidential Immunity complicates matters herebrIf Trump claims he was acting as President he cannot be held accountable It's like bolting the stable door and adding extra locks AFTER THE HORSE ESCAPED!

Comment from : @lordanthony8709

Please elaborate the term dictator??brLabeling the actions of someone who only represents the good for there country and fellow human beings into one short word means that you only have limited knowledge of how things really work You try multitasking at his level His done more in the few months than many previous presidents of recent times couldn't accomplish in 4 years
Comment from : @Nsfwads

It truly shows that Trump will sacrifice the protections of hundreds of experienced agents all for the benefit of showing that Trumps' history of criminality is both untrue and a travesty and his image takes precedence over and above the future of this countrysuch unbelievable conceit and egomaniacal logic have never been seen before in this country

Comment from : @patrickwilson2650

I think Trumps wants them gone, because this time around if he gets impeached he will be arrested by them He is foretelling us what will happen I speculate that Putin is running the show because I bet Trump is actually terrified of dying by nerve poisoning That is why you are seeing all this chaos Stop looking at each individual thing and why trump is saying he is doing it Look at the whole picture of what's happening, that is how you can see what is going on Trump made a deal with the devil along time ago
Comment from : @GoGreen-l7e

The US Military under Biden kept the US perfectly safe until Trump took over, and started firing the most competent people in every department, science, and disclipline to keep America safe Planes started falling out of the skies, trains wrecked, the economy and truth, law and order collapsed, and Trump trying to remove every good thing people get in a good wholesome society like truth, law, and order how does that make America great again treating everybody like a terrorist, everybody losing their jobs, science and medicine have been corrupted with insanity and criminal insanity of Trump and his brainwashed and lied to supporters, unless you believe Trump's lies, criminal insanity, and vile treasonous behavior of infamy and destruction towards law and order, truth, science, reason, love, and light you are taking America down, truth, love and light down with you
