So far McConnell & GOP Est. have basically used Trump voters to put themselves in power–and pass Paul Ryan's agenda, not Trump's. Do you blame those voters if they don't care what McConnell wants? https://t.co/zwdumWOXlj

Not sure I would use Boston as an example of a city moving away from the car because its highway was "torn down" to make way for a park. The highway's still there, just buried, no? And it certainly wasn't an example of saving money. https://t.co/2Gpv6yXDtQ

Carl Cannon on how Mueller and Comey "bungled the biggest case they ever handled." It was all about dogs, apparently https://t.co/vc9lxvgfgi PS Cannon, writing a few days after Mueller was named, also argues he has a conflict appointed).

Plus Mueller himself is a potential witness in the case: Trump interviewed him for Comey's job (before he was appointed special pros.). Did Trump pressure him about Russia or Flynn? That's very relevant evidence he could give. https://t.co/7KIOLHgeIJ https://t.co/soE0dDrhw6

Well if Comey's lawyer says it! That Snopes "fact check" an lazy exercise in coming to conclusion they want (as if Mueller's reputation has anything to do with whether there is a conflict) https://t.co/7KIOLHgeIJ https://t.co/E0YUjVDSOy

"While Mueller technically reported to Comey as deputy attorney general, Comey, two decades his junior, treated Mueller as a close friend and almost mentor. The men had known each other for years as each rose into the small, elite fraternity…" https://t.co/S74ez9a7pT
