I'm calling my House member tomorrow

Mike Levin CA-49th.

I'm going to request that since we are facing a Trump administration stone wall and Republican delay in the tax release and Mueller Report release we should invoke impeachment proceedings to open this process up to the light of day.

I could add: Take the SDNY Individual-1 case allegations to justify opening it, then get the full unredacted Mueller report, the Grand Jury materials (make your own redactions pertaining to classified informations et al), call in Mueller and his team to testify in both close sessions and open ones, get the tax returns, and show the wrong doings to the American people.

Barr could be on the Trump re-election campaign already.

The oRange mobsteR's re-election campaign has highjacked the DOJ of We The People!

Call, write, protest march, before they succeed at subverting the Constitution entirely!

"Take the SDNY Individual-1 case allegations to justify opening an impeachment inquiry, then get the full unredacted Mueller report lawfully, the Grand Jury materials (make your own redactions pertaining to classified informations et al), call in Mueller and his team to testify in both close sessions and open ones, get the tax returns, and show their wrong doings to the American people day after day after week after month until November 2020.

Barr could be on the Trump re-election campaign already.


Time to go on the counter offensive! Stop playing defense!

The percentage voting Republican dropped 2.6%. ITMF.

That's my opinion and I'm urging all Democrats to go forward.

Impeachment gained the GOP nothing. Without the ability to convict, we shouldn't impeach.

seats historically this happens in the last two years of an eight year term...but instead they lost five seats...it was such a big deal that Gingrich was not going to remain speaker and was forced out.

7. Too bad our voters let us down in 16 because maybe then we could take Trump

down. We have limited power. We have the House. Let's say we want to fire IRS guy and Mnuchin or prosecute them. If the AG and justice won't back the house. What can we do? Maybe wait a year, win in 20...and lock them up then. I don't see what you expect Democrat leaders to do. The president always has the bully pulpit and Democrats don't. And the constant complaining about Democratic leaders hurts our chances in 20.
