In an interview with ABC News today, Bill Barr said Trump’s tweets are making it “impossible to do my job,” and that he won’t be bullied into doing anything.  He also said, “I think it’s time to stop the tweeting about Department of Justice criminal cases,” and that he’s prepared for any consequences of crossing Trump.  He continued saying he can’t do his job with a continuous background of commentary from Trump on criminal cases.

It’s a rare split from His Orangeness; Barr’s sudden reversal is just one sign of the chaos at DOJ and the FBI that Trump has created.  A mutiny is certainly underway and Barr had to step in.

A little ray of sunshine in the dark abyss of Trump corruption.

Oh, and a message to Ted Cruz and John Cornyn…This is all on you.

Well, campers, Hope Hicks is coming back to the White House as if there weren’t already enough hicks there.

Former Trump Communications Director Hope Hicks is leaving Fox News’ parent company to return to the White House as Counselor to the President, but in a switch she will report directly to Jared Kushner. Kushner is known to be working on the president’s re-election campaign from within the White House.

Hope left the White House two years ago immediately after she admitted to investigators working for  Mueller that she had lied for the president.  You just can’t have too much lying at the White House, especially as we get closer to election time and, Honey, Hope lies.

She’s gonna be reporting to Jared now.

Okay, Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen just sent us something interesting.

It appears that Roger Stone has a new lawyer.  This appears …

02/13/2020 289  MOTION for Leave to Appear Pro Hac Vice Seth Ginsburg Seth Ginsburg Filing fee $ 100, receipt number ADCDC-6826013. Fee Status: Fee Paid. by ROGER JASON STONE, JR. (Attachments: # 1 Declaration, # 2 Text of Proposed Order)(Buschel, Robert) (Entered: 02/13/2020)

THIS Seth Ginsburg?

Okay, this was way back in 2010, but once you’re a mob lawyer, can you just leave?

And Happy Valentines Day to you, too, Alfredo.

UPDATE:

And ….. yes, it most certainly is that same lawyer.  Take a look here.

He’s also skilled at getting Ukrainian money launderers sent to prison for five years.

You know, sometimes there’s just not much left to say.

Yeah, he really said that.

He also said, “The people who drive the cars and park the cars at Mar-a-Lago, they love him, because he’s kind and compassionate.”

You know, on the night of the State of the Union, I asked Bubba who was the designated survivor that night.  We didn’t know, but it did cause us to wonder how many cabinet members have been approved by the senate.  We could only think of two off the top of our heads:  Carson and Betsy DeVoss. I decided not to look it up because I was scared that I was right.

Michigan Republican Representative John Moolenaar spent $22,839 from his leadership PAC on fun and games in Colorado.

The vast majority of the money went to the Four Seasons Hotel in Vail, Colorado, some snowmobiling, and assorted other stuff that doesn’t help him get elected.

His PAC is named: Together United for Liberty, Integrity and Prosperity PAC.  I thought that was a rather strange arrangement of words so I looked at it again. It spells out TULIP. Okay, why tulip?  Why would somebody go to all the trouble unless it meant something?

It does.  He represents a district where the Holland, Michigan, Tulip Festival is held.

See, that’s just not right.  You name your political money-gathering tool after a big festival they’ve been holding for 90 years and then you spend that money illegally on pleasure for yourself.

That’s not a good thing.  That’s a damn shameful thing.
