A filing in NY today regarding Mazars being asked to turn over Trump's tax returns was blocked by Trump's lawyers via a temporary restraining order. The legal filing is dubious, and downright scary, as Trump's lawyers aren't just claiming you can't indict a sitting president, they're now arguing you can't even investigate a sitting president.

Which, the Mueller Investigation was a thing going on until at least May of 2019, so that seems like a huge mound of bulls***.

But as far as the whistleblower complaint about Ukraine goes... it's not just that Trump allegedly tried bribing an ally with money they need to stand up to Russia to try and get dirt on Biden...

Now both Trump's White House and AG Bill Barr may have obstructed justice (again) by going out of their way to try and prevent that whistleblower's complaint from reaching the ears of Congress.


These are problems that you face when the president is a stupid, lawless, sundowning jackass. I don't know how long it's going to be before Republicans wise up that you will never, ever, get a respite from trying to defend him, because he can't go five minutes without blundering into a latest misadventure of corruption that there are no mental gymnastics you can do to argue he's in the right without losing your own sanity and soul.
