In true form, Trump made an ass of himself (again) today by pushing his border wall bullshit;  he pushed said bullshit in front of children who just wanted to find Easter eggs and frolic on the South Lawn of the White House.  The Easter Grinch showed up, and his name is Donald.

Sheesh.

A Republican group, Republicans for the Rule of Law, is running this ad on FOX NEWS:

In a statement to Newsweek, the group’s executive director, Sarah Longwell, said “It’s clear from the report today that there’s a lot of political interference that was attempted [by Trump]. This is not the end of the Mueller investigation, this is just the beginning. It looks like the Mueller report really is a road map for Congress. And that there was no exoneration, definitely obstruction.”

The group was started in 2017 when Trump threatened to fire Robert Mueller.  It claims to be a group of life-long Republicans “dedicated to defending the institutions of our republic and upholding the rule of law.”

The ad, the group says, is intended to motivate Republican lawmakers to finally begin speaking out against Trump’s lawlessness.  When Republicans begin calling for the rule of law against Trump’s assault on our republic, Hell has truly froze over.

You’ll recall that way back in 2017 when Trump fired James Comey, Sarah Sanders, White House Liar, stood at the briefing room podium and told the American people that the FBI under Comey had been in turmoil and that “countless FBI agents” had called and told the White House how unhappy they were under Comey.  She later admitted that her statement “wasn’t based on anything”.  In other words, she stood in the White House briefing room and knowingly lied to the American people to protect Trump.

Pages 1 & 2 of Volume II of the Mueller report tells it all.  In those pages, Mueller talks about the DOJ’s policy that a sitting president cannot be indicted.  Mueller is very careful to explain that he’s not recommending indictment because Trump’s not guilty (he most certainly is); he’s not recommending indictment because DOJ CAN’T indict, and due to that fact, a public assertion of guilt cannot be defended in court because there cannot be an indictment.  He even goes so far to say that even a sealed indictment is not practical due to the danger of leaking of that indictment.

So, it’s clear that Trump is guilty of obstruction; it’s also clear that to protect his civil rights, Mueller has declined to recommend indictment and has tossed the responsibility to the Congress (which won’t do anything, of course).

Page 290 – “According to notes written by Hunt, when Sessions told the President that a Special Counsel had been appointed, the President slumped back in his chair and said, ‘Oh my God. This is terrible. This is the end of my Presidency. I’m fucked.'”

The Mueller Report just hit the public and MSNBC is frantically going through it.  While doing that, one thing has become crystal clear, and that is Bill Barr, the AG of the US, is a goddam liar.  AND, he’s a goddam liar on national television.  As they read Mueller’s words, it’s clear there was a LOT of evidence of collusion with Russians and obstruction of justice.  During his remarks this morning, I noticed that while lying, Barr was very careful to talk about collusion with the Russian GOVERNMENT, not Russians themselves.  This will only get uglier as the day wears on.
