“The White House is telling federal agencies to blow off Democratic lawmakers’ oversight requests, as Republicans fear the information could be weaponized against President Trump,” Politico reports.

“At meetings with top officials for various government departments this spring, Uttam Dhillon, a White House lawyer, told agencies not to cooperate with such requests from Democrats.”

“It appears to be a formalization of a practice that had already taken hold, as Democrats have complained that their oversight letters requesting information from agencies have gone unanswered since January, and the Trump administration has not yet explained the rationale.”

1. It is the ultimate way to say our democracy is done, over, dead.

We dont have 3 branches, we have nothing but Trump Bannon Putin.

GOP wont impeach anyway, America is over.

Be smart and find a place to duck and cover, when we invade Sweden side by side with Russia, world war 3 happens.

Dont know about you, but I am so angry at fucking republicans i cant spit. So angry at fucking progressives who couldnt vote for Hillary, i want to SCREAM

2. That is what happens in less developed nations back in the 70s, 80s.

To the winner goes all the spoils. Anyone whose party did not win is in penury. They get absolutely no power. It is why they were so unstable. And what a waste of talent that was to islolate and impoverish those talents who just don't happen to be on the winning side.
