2. The "memo" is an attempt BY CONGRESS to obstruct justice through legislative insurrection and lying to the American people, and is even treasonous in its attempts to protect those working with Russia and giving aid to Russia.
3. "Redoing the judiciary" to make all these and more crimes legal. They're packing with names of people Trump never heard of, just as the idea was not his.
Sure, these are all huge.
But the Republican House intelligence committee's active collusion in the coverup, abetted by the rest of the Republicans in congress -- and the failure of the FBI to protect the nation -- is nation-shaking.
What we hoped wouldn't happen has. Two of our three branches of government are under the control of betrayers of America who are ruthlessly willing to overset democracy to protect themselves. They are now overtly working to do just that and are knowingly accepting Russia's help to keep their hold on power.
They are facing loss of control of congress, ruin of careers, and investigations and even some of them indictments. They're desperate and very dangerous.
(Btw, I record all the MSNBC evening programs from Chris Hayes through Brian Williams (also Ari Melber), and they all covered this big move to stop Mueller intensively. BIG TIME.)
