After two years and the conclusion of the DoJ’s Special Counsel investigation, it would be nice to just close the books on this sorry affair. But to maintain the health of our Republic there is no option but to follow through as Nunes intends.

“When one applies the free market idea to normal people, it works. When one applies it to narcissistic sociopaths, it doesn’t.

This should be interesting. Will there be rioting in the streets, as some have predicted? Will the Supreme Court get involved? Will AG Barr or Chairman Nadler blink?

My view is that Congress is not entitled to get what it is asking for. Hence the issues involved are all academic in the purest meaning of the term.
