When dueling culture is re-established by and in the south it will be interesting. I swear i will not be surprised. The way southern congressmen intimidated northern whigs was often very explicitly physical threats.

For those who mourn the collapse of comity and bipartisanship, the parties between 1865 and 1901 were locked the fuck down.

Donald Trump lost a bid to halt a lawsuit brought by 201 Congressional Democrats who want a Washington federal court to require that the president seek approval from lawmakers before he accepts any financial benefits from foreign governments.In a pair of orders issued Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan denied Trump’s request to halt the lawsuit so he could immediately appeal Sullivan’s earlier refusals to dismiss the case. The decision means the 2017 lawsuit led by U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut can proceed.

Queens votes for its next DA in 4 days. Rarely has a DA race been so focused on how to shake up mass incarceration.

this is otm. i don't think the specific question is great or likely to get a newsmaking answer from mueller. but the point is correct.
No more legal experts on cable! Former US attorneys/FBI types give legalistic answers about what Q they would ask Mueller. Then Jeremy Bash, who also understands politics, says his Q to Mueller would be: "Why? Why did Putin support Trump? Why did Trump want Putin's support?"— Paul Kane (@pkcapitol) June 26, 2019
The time for these former USAs, FBI types is done. This is no longer a legal issue, it's entirely about congressional politics. Frankly, these former USAs overly hyped things on cable the past 12 weeks anyway, in terms of where even a D-led Congress was likely to go.— Paul Kane (@pkcapitol) June 26, 2019

what specific question? what does this have to do with mueller? I have not been following this

I realize my original comment was snide and ignorant, I am sorry

he's saying that strictly legalistic questioning of anyone (including mueller) by congressional committees on the mueller report is useless.

ok, thanks for clarifying
― Dan S, Wednesday, 26 June 2019 04:31 (four years ago) link
it does seem like having Mueller answer any questions about his report live for all of us to hear will be helpful in making it real
