Michael Flynn: I'm guilty Bill Barr/Trump: Oh, no you're not Tim Shea, the US Attorney for DC who signed the papers to nolle pros the case is a Hoya, GULC '91. Another disgrace. Judge Sullivan should haul his ass in front of the Court and grill him on the motion to drop the indictment.

It seems like people are arguing that Pence did not actually carry the empty boxes into the building. Not understanding how this is a ha ha funny joke, but whatever.

It is exceptionally rare for the U.S. Department of Justice to move in court to dismiss a case in which a defendant has—ably assisted by first-class lawyers—entered into a plea agreement to spare himself prosecution on more serious felony charges. It is rarer still for the government to do so without acknowledging that it violated any law or that the defendant’s rights were somehow infringed. And it is still rarer yet for the government to take such a move without a single career prosecutor being willing to sign onto the brief seeking dismissal. The government’s 20-page brief is not an honest document—perhaps the reason that it is signed only by Timothy Shea, the interim U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia—and not a single one of the career prosecutors who worked on the case. That may also be the reason why Brandon Van Grack, the prosecutor who has worked the case from the beginning, moved to withdraw from the case entirely just hours before the Justice Department filed its motion. www.lawfareblog.com/ugly-day-justice-department

I highly doubt Trump is getting the nasal swab daily. I bet theyre just talking about the forehead temp checks.

Incompetent assclowns. The problem is that Trump cultists lack the cognitive ability to discern facts from lies.
President Trump and White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Friday attacked House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for being in California rather than Washington — a sign, they both said, of her unwillingness to work on behalf of Americans.
As it turns out, the California Democrat was in fact in Washington, where she was visible to reporters at the Capitol.
“She’s highly overrated, a bad woman,” Trump said of Pelosi during a wide-ranging interview Friday morning on “Fox & Friends.” “She doesn’t even want to go to work. She’s in California sitting in her expensive house.”
A few hours later, McEnany echoed her boss as she complained about the difficulty of working with Congress when Pelosi is not in Washington.
“It would be helpful if Nancy Pelosi was here,” McEnany said at a White House briefing. “We need Nancy Pelosi to come back from California and get to Washington, D.C., and to work for the American people.”
Her comments prompted a tweet from Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill that included a photo of his boss.
“@speakerpelosi literally doing interviews from Capitol Hill as @presssec stated this,” Hammill wrote. “Pelosi has done TV all week from DC.”

Seriously, someone explain to me how this remark can reflect any grasp of reality whatsoever.
Kayleigh McEnany told reporters that the White House is operating safely, *because it has testing and tracing.* But Trump won't create the robust federal testing regime that would allow the rest of us to have that.

I cannot believe that someone with so much power could be so profoundly stupid. He simply doesn’t understand how anything works.

Scarier that an entire political party and 40% of the electorate continue to support the malignant narcissist.

Hopefully, Conway is correct. Twenty-six years ago, I published my first op-ed. Entitled “‘No Man in This Country … Is Above the Law,’” it addressed news reports that President Bill Clinton planned to claim an immunity from having to respond to Paula Jones’s sexual harassment suit. “In a case involving his private conduct,” I wrote, “a President should be treated like any private citizen. The rule of law requires no more — and no less.” The piece led to my ghostwriting briefs for Jones, including a Supreme Court brief two years later. The Supreme Court agreed unanimously that Jones could proceed, and, like the op-ed, quoted from the Founders’ debates about the status of the president: “Far from being above the laws, he is amenable to them in his private character as a citizen, and in his public character by impeachment.” Which meant that while a president could be impeached for official misconduct, he “is otherwise subject to the laws” — and therefore could be sued — “for his purely private acts.”I couldn’t have imagined then that another president would challenge that proposition. Then again, I couldn’t have imagined President Donald Trump. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/05/08/george-conway-why-trump-will-lose-court/
