Imagine if all the shitty financial things a billionaire does and is capable of isn t illegal, so you have to cook up some sort of bizarre collusion charge with a big scary enemy to try to make something stick that won t take everyone else down with him.

Not enough people (in the media, as well as œon the street ) realize the significance of what Mueller wrote about future prosecution for obstruction. The Mueller Report is Extremely not crap.

The way they are trying to get around it by constructing an alternate reality where the report says the opposite of what is written in it is horrifying to watch but I can't look away, seeing them spin up this massive lie cocoon in the public consciousness. Knowing only an idiot would believe them, confident that there are enough idiots to make it a viable strategy, and apparently being right.

What matters:Looking forward to tomorrow, though concerned the Dems won't make smartest use of available time.

Great long-read article by Mark Greif for n+1 yesterday.Haven't changed my opinion about whether this will amount to anything (it won't). For historical reasons alone, though, I'll settle on NC.

LOL

Guys, we got him.

He's done everything asked of him, and made it crystal clear that it's all there for impeachment proceedings to take place.Why the fuck that hasn't happened is at least saddening, at most bewildering, but it has ball-all to do with the Mueller report itself.My only personal gripe, though I can see the underlying logic, was in his not wrestling with the Trump subpeona. Given his reasoning then fair enough as it gives more legroom for impeachment to take place. I can only assume he expected the relevant people to pull their fingers out on that score, once they were given all they needed.

They should have actually killed De Niro at the end of Heat.
