Why bother going to the gang of eight or Congress?
SCOTUS gave Trump immunity.
Couple that with the his pardon power and an embarrassingly supine congressional GOP and you get ...
What we have: a dictatorship in its early stages.

A bipartisan bill that became law after getting approved 427-1 in the GOP controlled House and unanimously by the GOP controlled Senate.
That the contents of the files obviously freak out Trump is his problem.
Hence the coverup.
Whatever is in there really, really concerns him.

"The bill to release the files was written by Dems ... "

Ro Khana, yes. Thomas Massie? Not so much.
That bill was approved 427-1 in the GOP controlled House and unanimously by the GOP controlled Senate.
On the tally sheet that would be another swing and a miss for you.

When push comes to shove, there is, unfortunately, really no particular reason in light of the Trump purge to believe the US military will support the Constitution.

"We called him Old Yeller. The name had a sort of double meaning. One part meant that his short hair was a dingy yellow, a color that we called yeller' in those days. The other meant that when he opened his head, the sound he let out came closer to being a yell than a bark."
Fred Gipson, Old Yeller

Please try focusing on the matter at hand.
What Trump has done is a number of things, none of them on any way positive.
Along a rough continuum they start with "stupid" and move along to "illegal."
Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Doesn't look like "Operation Fuhgedaboud Epstein" was well thought out.
Other than the kidnapping-as-cover and announcement of brazen theft parts.
The ensemble presentation at Mar-a-Lardo, though, what a paean to the spirit of kitsch.
"General Raizin' Caine" ... "He effed around and he found out ... "
Oooh,boogabooga ... hilarious performances that forever upstaged Colin Powell's pathetic cartoons at the UN.

And?

The return of loud of mouth, short on cultural awareness and sensitivity, and profoundly lacking in displays of respect piratas norteamericanos aka filibusteros aka los pinche gringos. It's a goddamn shame. In every sense of that word.

That ------- arch won't pay for itself, know what I mean?

How many times does Trump have to tell you? It's a ------- "arc." (He probably means "ark.")

"We will run Venezuela."
To steal its oil and rare earth minerals?
A FUBAR fiesta grande in the making..
Buen provecho, MAGAts.

Twain was a fierce opponent of the naked and rampant American Imperialism of Trump fav William McKinley.

Morning, Coriolanus ... Well put!

Seems like your ability read and understand complex topics is non-existent.

You will never cease to embarrass yourself, writing nonsense in a language you basically do not understand.
Perhaps it's just too complex for you.
Or maybe there's something amiss with the program you're using.
You're welcome.
No charge.

"Doesn't" not "does." MAGAts are the biggest political pants p*ssers in the US. Always outraged, ever angry, poorly informed and led by a convicted felon and sexual abuser who is losing his mind in full view prime time. What a show!

Is there anything that does frighten MAGAts? Anything? Buehler?

"Everything faded into mist. The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became truth."
George Orwell, 1984

The goonish Tom "Bagga Cash" Homan is poster boy for the most corrupt presidential administration in American history, bar none.

"They said they think it's Russia. I have President Putin. He just said it's not Russia. I will say this: I don't see any reason why it would be."
Don Trump, 2018

Blindingly disqualifying statement.
Yet here we are, more than seven years later:
A Putin fl*ffer tearing down the White House.
Enabled by cat-got-your-tongue useful idiots in Congress.
The Ukrainians will pay for the GOP's craven behavior.
As will we.

"In short," Mona Charen observes, "there has never been a president who has made the United States less respected than you have. We are, to borrow a phrase, disrespected like never before. Whether your twisted ego can recognize that is open to question, but what is not debatable is that virtually the whole world knows."

Obviously, I don't fully understand Blockchain, but looking at these results makes me feel like this is a six-player poker game, with the other five people in a room somewhere, showing their cards to each other.

That's a piece of advice I put right up there with some other words of wisdom: "Never play cards with a man called Doc. Never eat at a place called Mom's. Never sleep with a woman whose troubles are worse than your own" (Nelson Algren, A Walk on the Wild Side).

No congressional authorization equals murder.
Oh, right, SCOTUS gave Trump (of all people) immunity from the legal consequences of his behavior.
And (for a price) he can pardon his coconspirators and enablers.
You built this, MAGAts.
