As an aside, Twitter threads have become a way of routing around the limitations of first the 140, then 280-character limit of the medium, to turn them effectively into blog posts, at which one can jump in at any time.
The appearance of corruption grows more apparent and clear with the release of new text messages. Ohr and Yates both need to be called before Congress. At some point, the Obama administration will no longer be “scandal free.”
Is it the future of the Democrats?
I hope so, because if so, it means, finally, the death of this old horrific, racist, and now totalitarian political party.
I’d like to think that Sessions is doing more than appears, and perhaps there will be an October surprise.

As noted in comments, Strzok was (finally) fired today.
#ProTip: Saying that Strzok was fired for "hating Trump" is as idiotic as saying Bill Clinton was impeached for getting a BJ. If people were being fired merely for hating Trump, probably most of the federal workforce would be out the door.
And as Glenn says, if Trump were to use the Insurrection Act to do something about it with federal troops, the media would call him a dictator.
I heard a Democrat give the standard line this morning that this is about lack of gun control, not in Chicago, but in the surrounding areas, and that (of course!) the only solution is nationwide gun control, to keep the guns out of Chicago. Unfortunately for this “argument,” we aren’t seeing these levels of violence in Gary, or Milwaukee, or even Detroit, which have just as much access to those same guns.
Ignoring the absurdity of the overreach of yet another single district judge making a decision for the entire country, the administration needed no other reason than that DACA itself was an unconstitutional and illegal executive order. And as Mike points out, the three branches are not in fact co-equal. Ultimately, it is up to Congress.
