The GOP is afraid to let the people vote, part 394:

Let's block vans from taking the elderly out to vote!

When a party’s electoral strategy depends on fewer people voting it means they know their policies suck for most people.

More in Barr’s ability to block Mueller’s testimony:

And Trump’s desire that he do so.

Hello to Dred Itz and kudos on surviving your visit to Fox hell.  Or Fox hole, where there are no atheists.

Discovery will be a blast. There’s no reason to stop pursuing conspiracy to defraud the U.S., but the more repercussions that hit the rolling crime spree, the better.

That’s too complicated for Kiid.

This is also far too complicated for Kiid. It would add up to many, many tweets and crack his poor brain.

Trump pardons murderer/soldier

wow....
He was convicted of murder.



Actually he was found not guilty of the charges levied.  In a real (civilian) court of law he may very well have been set free.  But - as this was a court martial - Behenna was able to be sentenced on a lesser charge.  Served just 5 years of the initial 25 year sentence after info that had been withheld surfaced.

Ooops - sorry - we will reduce the sentence

Oops - sorry - we will reduce it again

Ooops - sorry - you are free now........

Should be pointed out this was yet another soldier who did not get proper psych treatment when needed.  No easy answer, I know
