The only reason they did not is that he lied and said it was stopped. These are the AG, you know, the guys that are the lawyers of the gov. If anybody can watch the full show and still think nothing was wrong..... They have NO understanding of the Constitution, why it was written, what a Land of the Free is or what a democracy is.

To be clear, the reason we are even having this discussion is because of the change he has already made. Business is already changing, Governments are changing (around the world), if you don't see that you are blind.
Jesus. I'll color code it for you guys.
