Public Citizen president Robert Weissman: "In this country, it is the people who rule, not the autocrat who rules. And we will defend our democracy. Congress will act when we make them act, and we will make them act." #ProtectMueller pic.twitter.com/wXaR1JBGJG

.@waltshaub: “Sessions was a terrible Attorney General, but he did one thing right: He recused himself from the investigation. Trump didn’t like that, so he fired him. Nixon tried to do that, and it ended his presidency. It should end THIS presidency, too.” #ProtectMueller pic.twitter.com/CkpMs7ggl6

Considering the result of the midterms and the crap of the last two years, I’m sadly not as optimistic as Walter Shoub.
I’m not either. I actually wrote a recent column for Free Inquiry about that, starting with quoting Norman Eisen and Noah Bookbinder in a Times op-ed.
