I just hope more of the cowards are capable of following his lead.

He does sum things up succinctly.

Here are my principal conclusions:
1. Attorney General Barr has deliberately misrepresented Mueller’s report.
2. President Trump has engaged in impeachable conduct.
3. Partisanship has eroded our system of checks and balances.
4. Few members of Congress have read the report.

Amash has been against trump for a long time. I don’t see this changing much.

Isn’t Amash basically like the Rand Paul of the House? Once in a while, he’s right in something really important but he’s generally an asshole?

I’m wondering if he’s thinking of primarying Trump.

Correct. He is a bit of a shit-stirrer. A stopped clock is right twice a day and all that.

With the current wave of anti-choice legislation I don’t want Trump Impeached. Because guess who is then in charge?
