Pavlov and Reck defending their favorite media outlet.
Yeah, the whole point is Nunes that is ducking muh investigation after the sooper-dooper mother nuke of all showdowns with the FBI and DOJ.
Chris and TSA are moping around, wondering what happened to their hero.
Pavlov and Reck defending their favorite media outlet.
They don't need defending in this case.
Nunes went nuts.
Why is he ducking the press after the big showdown, Chris?
Why is he obliged?
He's a congressman who made a big deal about it before it happened.
Why is he ducking the press after the big showdown, Chris?
That's not a good reason Pavlov. Why is Nunes obliged to talk to CNN?
Not just CNN.
He's not talking about it to anyone.
He's talking about nuts.
Why not comment on the big showdown?
Chop chop.
What's the rush Pavlov? He's allowed to talk about pistachios if he wants.
lol defending Nunes' hiding from the press.
Trump’s legal memo to Robert Mueller is a recipe for tyranny
A clear and present danger to the rule of law
Essentially all presidents sooner or later end up commissioning lawyers to put forward an expansive view of presidential power, but those lawyers take pains to argue that they are notmaking the case for a totally unchecked executive whose existence would pose a fundamental threat to American values.
Donald Trump, however, is a different kind of president.
In a 20-page memo written by Trump’s legal team and delivered to Robert Mueller, as reported by the New York Time’s this weekend,
they make an unusually frank case for a tyrannical interpretation of presidential power.
Trump’s lawyers say he has unlimited power over criminal justice
The key passage in the memo is one in which Trump’s lawyers argue that not only was there nothing shady going on when FBI Director James Comey got fired
there isn’t even any potential shadiness to investigate
because the president is allowed to be as shady as he wants to be
when it comes to overseeing federal law enforcement.
He can fire whoever he wants.
Shut down any investigation or open up a new one.
This is a particularly extreme version of the
“unitary executive” doctrine that conservative legal scholars sometimes appeal to
(especially when there’s a Republican president),
drawing on the notion that the executive branch of government —
including the federal police agencies and federal prosecutors —
are a single en y personified by the president.
But to push that logic into this terrain
would not only give the president carte blanche to persecute his enemies
but essentially vitiate the idea that there are any enforceable laws at all.

So I suppose after great intellectual legal laboring, Trash's ty lawyers can only say, the only way that Trash can be saved is that
"Trash is above the law, so the investigation is bogus, and Trash can stop it without any repercussions"
... so why doesn't he stop Mueller now? Why the hesitation?
Rudy Giuliani: Trump ‘probably’ has the power to pardon himself — but ‘he has no intention’ of doing it
https://www.rawstory.com/2018/06/rud...e+Raw+Story%29
2 things about that. 1. No he does not have that power. 2. Funny how he didn't say that Trump had no need to pardon himself.
now Trump distancing himself from Manafort
I remember how TSA said Trump did not dictate that statement about the tower meeting![]()
Mark Penn “Why are there people from the Clinton Foundation on the Mueller Staff? Why is there an Independent Counsel? To go after people and their families for unrelated offenses...Cons ution was set up to prevent this...Stormtrooper tactics almost.” A disgrace!
It's not an independent counsel.
Dude failed.
Things guilty people say
Awkward: Rudy Giuliani Opens MTP Interview by Calling Chuck Todd ‘Todd’… Then ‘Chris’
Just moments after being welcomed to the show by MSNBC’s Chuck Todd, Giuliani called him by his last name.
“It’s nice to be with you Todd,” he said.
Todd, aptly called by that name in news reports but not during on-camera interviews, began to respond as Giuliani noticed the blunder, piping up with, “Chris!”
“We’re not playing baseball,” the attorney joked.
Todd laughed, making light of the moment.
“We won’t do the last names, Giuliani,” he said.

yup, zero sense. Not to mention that now-bad-dude Comey was then-good-dude Comey because he had no qualms reopening the investigation on Shillary, days before the election.
