    He has no claim to executive privilege whatsoever, and Congress must assert itself.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    NICE!!
    The house is a little late acquiring balls. They should have pursued criminal charges on others previously as well.

    The mills of the gods grind slowly, but they’re Mixmasters compared to watching Congress and the Department of Justice move on this matter. I have been staunchly in the camp of take the time you need. I have believed from the jump that there’s more going on underground at the DOJ than we know about. But even my patience gauge is blinking red. It’s not enough to be doing something. The country needs to see you doing something. It needs to see that to build its confidence that justice is coming. It also needs to see it as a kind of vicarious triumph over all the worst cynicism and corruption that attended the last administration*. A Steve Bannon perp walk would do nicely.

    It has nothing to do with floating my boat, you took the document from a source, it must be posted, read rule #5. Thank you

    Trump's Jan 20th pardon doesn't mean Bannon can ignore the law for the rest of his life, didn't make him superman

    defying a lawful Congressional subpoena to appear is happening now, not prior to Jan 20th

    also he's vulnerable to state criminal prosecution after his pardon, related to defrauding investors in a border wall fundraising effort

    besides Trump, Bannon's would be the most satisfying march to watch
