    Former heads of the FBI refused to have their clearances reinstated in order to legally avoid questioning from the IG. Remember that he can only force people currently working for the federal government -- and apparently anyone with a current government issued clearance -- to speak to him. So by refusing to have their clearances reinstated Comey and Baker avoided questioning while continuing to pretend to the world that they had nothing . . . to . . . hide. Cool!

    Actually I am not bothered by this. I believe in the right NOT to self-incriminate. But it does make one question their . . . innocence.

    Meanwhile Dirty Donald has a blanket ban on releasing subpoenaed documents and personnel from appearing before congress.So much for co-equal branches of government.

    The more we find out about the criminal behaviors of both Comey and Baker, the more I hate the fact that I couldn't pass a standing challenge. But, as a citizen, this is exactly the kind of criminal behavior that regularly harms citizens, our future rights, and the effectiveness of government. To have to rely on government to indict these POSs, it's just insane.

    The Gateway Pundit is an American far-right[2][3] news and opinion website. It was founded after the 2004 United States presidential election,[4] according to its founder, Jim Hoft, to "speak the truth" and to "expose the wickedness of the left".[5] In 2016, it provided favorable coverage of Donald Trump's presidential campaign and, after Trump's election, was granted press credentials by the White House.[6] The website is known for publishing falsehoods and spreading hoaxes.

    Well . . . just like with the Mueller Investigation and all its process crimes but no actual Trump/Russia collusion this impeachment stuff is not turning out the way our party loyal leftists wanted or EXPECTED it too . . . and that's because not only is it a transparently obvious politically partisan farce but independent voters know it. Apparently the political Left STILL cannot grasp what it means to truly be an independent. The entire THINK FOR ONESELF aspect seems to just go -- zip! -- right over their heads.

    This shows the problem for many of the haters. Avoiding facts because they are not the lies they believe.

    What exactly do you think is meant by co-equal branches of government?

    From typical leftist responses they usually seem to think that there is ALWAYS one branch of government that's really Constitutionally superior to the other two but that the identity of that MAGIC branch changes depending on which branch of government at the time the political Left more or less controls. So it's . . . situational.

    conversely-equal?? As Gatewood inferred, whichever branch of the federal government the dems do not control is less equal
