re: Holder issues a second warning to Trump

I invite any regressive to hit the streets in my hood. Hope you're better prepared than I...

Holder better shut it down before He has blood on His hands...and gets held responsible for Inciting Riot Laws.

Can Trump send a warning to Holder?
"You will be indicted once the Uranium One and investigation of the DOJ is complete."

It's not out of context to impugn the self righteous and false outrage of Holder. If you think the government can kill an American citizen with a drone who hasn't even been charged with a crime, why should I believe you care about obstruction of justice? And your assertion that the meme is false is just flat-out wrong. Abdulrahman was killed 2 weeks after his father in a separate targeted strike.

Right, in an attack targeting Ibrahim al-Banna, which speaks further to the disingenuous bullshite of that meme. Obama was no more ordering a strike on the 16 year old than Trump was ordering an attack in Yemen that killed his 8 year old sister. Neither explicitly set out to kill those American citizens, but because of potential poor decision-making, poor operational execution and/or poor intelligence, an American citizen became collateral damage.

I don't agree with Trump's actions, but you are the one carrying the water for Obama and Holder in this thread while accusing everyone else of being a partisan hack. Never have I seen you criticize either for their borderline neoconservative foreign polices. I don't like war and assassinations regardless of who wages them. You seem to be fine with both so long as a Democrat does it.

Im pointing out partisan hackery when the shoe fits. You may have a more nuanced and critical eye with a consistent logic - that just so happens to be factually misleading and a red herring to this thread - but the army of Trumpkins chortling at your out of context meme are the same people that were in that thread defense forcing Trump, blame-shifting(you), or have stayed silent on condemning the very same actions they crucified Obama for.

These people sure are brazen, you would think a man who as AG was found in contempt of Congress would lie low and be thankful that he never went to prison, but no not these motherfrickers.

He has never spoken on behalf of the "vast majority" of the American people, EVER! In his college days he only spoke on behalf of the people that looked like him.

If I am trying to kill someone and I put a bomb under their car and their family of 4 get killed, I am guilty of 4 counts of murder am I not? I cannot stand the moral hoops both parties (not you) use to avoid calling our drone wars what they are: mass murder. Dropping a drone on a village to kill one suspected terrorist and wind up killing 30 civilians, I call that murder. War doesn't excuse it, but we're not even at war with Yemen.

---

So where was your moral outrage for the Yemen raid by Trump? For Trump's desire to expand drone strikes and raids in places like Yeman. Above what Obama would have authorized All I could find when you dared me to look was a similar blame shift trying to point fingers at Obama for a decision Trump made.

You won't find me disagreeing on the principle that America, under Democrats and Republicans, including this current administration and the last, continues to carry out foreign policy that is incredibly problematic on many levels. Some which may be justifiable, some most certainly not.

There wasn't outrage because it was expected. The political establishment of both parties is completely beholden to a subset of intelligence and military officers whose belief in military interventionism and its secondary policies is akin to religious fundamentalism. I had no doubt that Trump would continue the policies Bush began and Obama continued, if only to try and appease the GOP establishment in order to get support for the bulk of his agenda. That's precisely why I did not vote for him.

Say what you want about Obama, but he was elected to end the Bush excesses that were associated with the War on Terror and War in Iraq. I voted for Ron Paul in the 2008 GOP Primary, but I was hopeful that Obama would be as anti-war as Dr. Paul. I actually believed Obama would rein in many of the policies of the Bush administration when it came to civil liberties. Obama's rhetoric of hope and change was an illusion, as his administration expanded the Bush-era policies that I found odious. Despite this, he is viewed as some sort of humanitarian. It's that hypocrisy that I despise.

wait, I thought Mueller had turned the investigation toward the Obama administration and was about to lock them all up. Why on Earth would Trump prevent that from happening? Why would Holder want that to happen?
