This would be a very interesting political science experiment if the stakes weren't so high. The strategy for 2020 is very clearly to lie as boldly as possible in the knowledge that the likes of Fox and Sinclair and the GOP Congress will never call them on it. The corollary to that is illegally obstructing every possible Congressional inquiry so as to run out the clock.
It is the best demonstration yet that he has complete control over "strategy" and the "adults" have been sidelined.

I think that is part of it, but that a potentially more significant factor is Mueller's steadfast commitment to DOJ precedent and procedure, which hold that Barr was very much acting within his authority.
That said, Mueller's testimony is going to be very interesting.
As to the wording question, Mueller and his team clearly though that if any portion of the Report was going to be released early, it would be the Executive Summaries that they specifically drafted for that purpose (and purposefully made sure were scrubbed of material that would have to be redacted, therefore allowing for their early release).Last edited by ursus arctos; 01-05-2019, 16:17.

Wohl is the grift that keeps on giving
My favourite part of the grift is how he bolts on supposed arbitrage of political betting markets on to a fairly bog standard, if pathetic, dirty tricks/misinformation campaign, with no rationale or business plan whatsoever. Anyone who invested in this - I really doubt anyone did - deserves to lose everything.Last edited by Ginger Yellow; 01-05-2019, 16:46.
