It’s been a strange, even surreal day at the Department of Justice, and Attorney General William Barr has made it clear that he’s completely out of control. On Monday, the DOJ filed a sentencing memo requesting that former Trump confidante Roger Stone be put in prison for seven to nine years for lying to Congress […]

If perhaps you were wondering why the Trump transition team got so upset when they found out that Special Counsel Robert Mueller had obtained tens of thousands of emails via the General Services Administration, a stunning report from Foreign Policy explains it perfectly: Those emails prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that Donald Trump […]
