Democracy Has Prevailed.

A WTF Moment, To Be Sure

Let's start here:
And then here's this:
Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said Tuesday that Attorney General William Barr told him he would send the special counsel Robert Mueller's final report on the Russia investigation to the White House before the public sees it, in case it wants to claim executive privilege over any parts.
Do I need to as this?
President Trump golfed Sunday with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), former Rep. Ted Gowdy (R-S.C.) and acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney as the White House awaits the findings from special counsel Robert Mueller's recently submitted report.
Now imagine if this was 20 years ago and the political roles were reversed.

What. The. Fuck.

Let's see the whole Barrett report.

I suspect the Democrats and their allies in the media would have supported and defended "President Clinton's Attorney General, Janet Reno,...[reading the Starr Report]... privately and published a 4-page letter based on her private reading stating her conclusion that President Clinton committed no crimes.".

“I am very concerned that the compelled production to Congress of internal Executive Branch documents generated in the course of the deliberative process concerning its response to congressional oversight and related media inquiries would haver significant, damaging consequences.”
