Turley, George Washington U. law professor, says the HJC is heading into a world of hurt: Turley is no conservative: "What Turley has called his "socially liberal agenda" has led liberal and progressive thinkers to consider him a champion for their causes, especially on issues such as separation of church and state, environmental law, civil rights, and the illegality of torture. Politico has referred to Turley as a 'liberal law professor and longtime civil libertarian.'" Wiki Barr's position is legally unassailable. So Nadler should continue on the path he has chosen to hold Barr in contempt -- and with Nadler being the chairman and all, he cannot be stopped -- until this gets into the courts.
I'd say one of the few good things that could come out of the bullshit we are going through right now...would be for some case law to be established on the issues at hand. A president is JUST a president...not a king. A president is not above the law...and it does not matter if the president is someone like Trump or someone like former president Barack Obama. Turley has his opinions...judges have theirs...the Justices of the SCOTUS have theirs. I hope Trump has not corrupted the system. My guess is he has not. I think everyone will be surprised that the decisions of the SCOTUS will not be markedly changed because it is now considered a more conservative court. We will see. I am looking forward to some of these contentious issues moving up the legal ladder.
