Perhaps Rep. Buck is better informed and has thought through the nuances or had someone do more extensive historical research on Presidential actions than he includes in the interview.
I am certain there have been requests for information on individuals from those involved in law enforcement or intelligence work. And I know of Presidents requesting other nations to let our citizens be deported back to the US without additional investigation or prosecution. Presidents have called for broad reforms in other nations' legal structures or personnel. But I cannot recall a previous President asking for a US citizen or two to be investigated. Anyone know of a precedent with a former President requesting information on a specific people? Or urging cooperation with the Attorney General rather than an Ambassador or other personnel with the State Department?
I personally think he's just a fucking stooge.
Snowden
Ken Buck learned early that Presidents are above the law when they interfere in foreign governments. As a 27 year old staffer, Buck helped then-Congressman Dick Cheney to churn out an “investigation” report of the Iran -Contra affair. President Reagan arranged for private funds (from weapons sales to Iranians) to pay the “contras”, who were overturning the elected government of Nicaragua. Cheney’s report miraculously found no evidence of actual weapons sales or wrongdoing, although he faulted Reagan’s ( and Chief of Staff Regan’s) judgement.
The report mostly exonerated President Reagan, and built Cheney’s reputation as a “fixer” for Presidential problems. As for Buck, Cheney remained an “inspiration” to him, and a mentor in Buck’s political career.
Thanks for the reminder
I forgot Buck was part of that coverup.
Yoo hoo,
Oh, Mister Bucklehead . . .
. . your Detective DMango wasn’t asking about any “ongoing investigation.”
Who shot J.R.? That was all just a fucking dream, too; remember? Did get some bigly ratings though; I can see why flailing Donnie would wanna’ get involved now . . .
This crap just ain’t gonna’ fly with anyone outside of Dumphuckistani FOX viewers and the stained-dress Moderati.
Maybe oughta’ find some better quality ridiculous horseshit to fling Boots-boy? . . .
Closer to home in CD-4….
I’ve been across a big chunk of CD-4 this past week and witnessing the utter destruction of our rural communities by libural Boulder policies. Start in Sonnenburg’s home county, Logan. Check out the Peetz wind farm (thank you renewable energy mandates), drive south through Akron and across to Otis and see their wonderful new school facilities (thank you BEST), drop into Wray and witness the $34mm remodel project on our K-12 schools (BEST) and the $5mm airport expansion project being funded by the socialist federal aviation fund. Go south to Idalia and check out another BEST new K-12 from the ground up, drive by hundreds of acres of hemp fields and at least three new hemp oil extraction facilities.
Cut across to Last Chance, south to Limon and witness a billion dollars in wind farms in Lincoln County (thank you mandate). Pay special note to the installs: Vestas turbines built by Coloradans from Pueblo to Windsor (thanks Ritter Administration), delivering clean, cheap energy to urban Coloradans.
Turn eastbound at Limon (after looking south and west and seeing nothing but wind turbines on the horizon. But first drop into the new Love’s truckstop as you drive by two new hotels being built and a renewed Main Street as I depart eastbound on 70. For the next 25 miles you see nothing but wind turbines, contributing millions in tax revenue to these rural counties. As you approach Burlington observe the doubling of the Carousel Wind Farm (thank you SB-252).
North back to Wray.
Our policies are clearly
destroyingenhancing our rural areas.so… we're seeing a competitive CD4 in play?
Yeah- like I thought
Not until the Trump hostage payments have dried up.
Having misspent my youth, and then blown past the on-ramp to Adulthood, just 100 miles north of that, I’m glad. Energy and agriculture will always be the future.
But, I’ve got ask,
rhetorically, neighbor to neighbor, . . .
You really want me to think you believe those salts-of-the-earth breakfast-club cake-bakers are even recognizing, forget thanking, Boulder policies for any of that?
. . . or, are they rather, just happily unaware at finally, finally having their prayers heard and being MAGAed by a really stable-genius some[chosen]one who’ really just like them?
I coulda/shoulda added a final paragraph. Upon return to Wray I opened up this week’s Wray Gazette and on the inside of the front page is a reprint of a Gazette (Colorado Springs) editorial yapping about how liberals are turning everyone into victims and how we need to eat a piece of apple pie and remember us good folk (the ones Prosperity Jesus loves) are just boot strappin’ Americans trying to overcome something something (they kinda lost me midway through the 20+ column inches devoted to the pep talk).
Moral of the story: apparently we can no longer think for ourselves waaay out east – we need to have an editorial board in CoSprings do it for us.
Yep.
Them’s my people.
