Count the ways they’re corrupting DOJ: Presidents don’t direct AG’s to open criminal cases, especially ones designating only Dems for investigation when POTUS himself is involved. DOJ doesn’t publicize criminal investigations & the AG definitely doesn’t assign them on Twitter.

Burns: The Old Testament says there’s nothing new under the sun. On July 4th, 1776, there was. Everybody up to that point had been under authoritarian rule. It was in the interests of their rulers that they be uneducated, that they be superstitious, that they be distracted by conspiracies…

AIPAC (American Israeli Public Affairs Committee) is a right wing fascist lobby group that supports WAR CRIMINAL Netanyahu. Any politician that is even partly supported by the group should be thrown out of office. That includes almost all republicans, and even a few democrats.
