it s clear that they re engaged ins el mass nullification of immigration law. at any stage of the process, whether it s in sanctuary cities, talking about enforcement for people with final deportation orders. this is part of the con. initially there were no caravans and not going to be any problem no, crisis at the border. then okay there s a lot of people at the border, we have to let people go through the process f they don t get to stay after that we promise we will be okay with them being sent home. now we know that was a lie all along. they keep telling lies and running out of room at this point. that s what, we re facing nullification. you put up the lists, they re getting very close to violating another statute over immigration, i m sure they wouldn t care, aiding and abetting. you can t actually harbor illegally immigrants, you can t employ illegal immigrants. there are all kinds of laws. some of the democrats seem to think they should do whatever they can to obstruct law enfor
donald trump hasn t hesitated to go to the courts. he s got a couple cases pending to thwart attempts to get the truth. i really think we would be better to move forward with inherent contempt and make it clear to this white house that we re not going through umpteen levels of judicial proceedings. we intend to enforce and stand up to those who deny the truth. i hear the rhetorical argument here and the point you re making. i m just wondering if you can make the case for how that would be more effective. how is holding secretary mnuchin or the irs commissioner in contempt more effective at getting the documents you want than going through the courts? someone held in contempt is fined or confined or both. and so it would be a matter, maybe secretary mnuchin as another billionaire in the trump cabinet wouldn t care that much, but being fined $25,000, $50,000 a day, and being subject to confinement. so you think throwing steven mnuchin, just to be clear, the
donald, the most honest thing that donald trump said in the campaign is that he could shoot someone on fifth avenue and his supporters wouldn t care. donald trump can do whatever he wants and that s how our politics work now. we always talk about polls, maybe he is up to 36 or down to 48, they really have not changed. people are locked in in their views and facts are irrelevant. i think jeffrey would agree with this point, one of the problems with a special council, and this kind of investigation, is that unlike what happens mostly in the rest of the criminal justice system you can t divorce politics from it. all of these decisions have an

had this conversation. no, seriously. so, why would he why would he have these conversations with no officials present, i don t thinthin think? he believes we re looking for things we are, and it seems that there must be something hidden there or he wouldn t care. but i want to say one thing about the intelligence chiefs cri contradicting him today. i think it s a really important moment. because throughout this presidency, we keep asking ourselves, is there enough of an infrastructure, are there enough checks and balances that we re going to be saved from the worst of trump? and that question gets bigger and scarier with mattis gone, with mcmaster gone, but here are three individuals who seem to be answering to something higher than the president, they were answering to conscious and truth. i agree with that totally, don. he s this administration in these last couple of years have undermined our faith in our law enforcement agencies. but these are the intelligence agencies. th
