...and the People want Pelosi's, Schumer's, Schiff's, and Nadler's resignations, for starters.

[jamesm.]

We the People . . . all 125M of us demand they resign without pension and surrender the money they have stolen.

They have been demanding that ever since he was confirmed.

[Honkytonkified]

Personal integrity would demand resignation without pressure from a few Democrats.

[dylanmedley]

He is an embarrassment to his position and clearly an accomplice, drain the swamp

Q

[Guitarchitect]

What?? The Democratic senators are throwing another hissy fit? No way....

[PCUSE]

The Democratic Senators demands have as much chance of being fulfilled as a dog's chances of learning quantum mechanics.

[twig]

He's making a power grab outside the purview of his position. The has no right to attempt to overturn a ruling by the judiciary. & his claim to be acting independent of the president is laughable. Actions speak louder than words, indeed.

[JoseyWaless]

You know you are doing a good job when the Democrats are screaming for your resignation.

[northerniltree]

"I'm going to do what I think is right" says Barr. And there is the problem that has played out since he became AG.

[highspeed]

He can resign when Black Face Virgina Governor hands in his resignation.

[rogerrussell]

So, we know he's getting closer to the swamp drain plug.

Shifts gear into campaign mode. When has ever not been in campaign mode?
