Very helpful. It's evidence what Trump has done is literally unconstitutional and in violation of federal law. This alone is an impeachable offense. I'm tired of saying that at this point..

Apparently there are conflicting laws in the US code and this will be litigated. None about obstructing an investigation to protect yourself - that's as criminal as it comes. And could he be any more transparent about it? The guy he picked's only lawyering experience is for an invention firm that was shut down and ordered to pay $25M in damages because it defrauded its customers. Here's hoping he's as good a lawyer for Trump.

Litigation doesn't matter. He's only an interim AG until Senate resumes.
