hockeycoug44 Of course he’d be 100% on board if he was AG right now...

Eventually everyone comes around to see this corrupt clown for what he is. Impeach45 ImpeachTrump ImpeachTrumpNow TrumpCrimeFamily TrumpIsNotAboveTheLaw TrumpCrimeSyndicate TrumpTraitor

Jesus, if this guy of all people is telling you that you have no regard for the law, we're all fucked

Former AG Alberto Gonzales stands a very real chance of having already have been indicted regarding warrantless surveillance of U.S. citizens and the legal authorization of torture so-called 'enhanced interrogation techniques' WaPo is the ENEMY

Gonzales sees this as the slippery slope that could eventually lead to prosecution of Cheney & Bush as war criminals. Stranger things have happened once Trump opens doors.

If Alberto Gonzales is calling you out- you gotta be a criminal! Just saying. To me- this really says Trump’s days are numbered!

Too little, too late. Your silence contributed to this National disaster Where were you when the Muslim ban came out in Jan 2017 & as well as all the illegality in the 2 years since

PaulBegala The US has sunk so low that the best one can do to curb a criminal openly trying to pervert justice is to whine about it. sunksolow

Alberto Gonzales: remember that this is the guy who supported the clandestine 'enhanced interrogation techniques' of terror suspects, the unwarranted surveillance of individuals including US citizens and was forced to resign as AG over a prosecution of political enemies scandal.

Are they above the law?

I’d settle for a real investigation and not the whitewash that occurred under Obama admin.

Why? This is the problem with this country. The elite get away with murder! Just like that kid who killed people drunk driving and was give no jail - people were outraged! If you don’t uphold laws for 1, you can’t uphold for any! Justice

PaulBegala You mean 'disgraced' Former Bush Attorney General Alberto Gonzales

When one of the guys who wrote the Bush 'Torture Memos' is saying you've crossed the line...there really is nothing else I can say but holy goddamned hell.

Liberals flocking to Bush and Bush era officials is incredibly amusing. Makes them look foolish admiring an administration they criticized as everything from bafoonish to evil, and will not legitimize them to Trump supporters. Neocons, RINOs can’t/won’t MAGA Trump can, will.

'You don't go after political rivals,' said the monstrously evil former AG whose tenure included firing several U.S. Attorneys that refused to kowtow to White House demands for politically-motivated prosecutions. 'Also torture is still fine or whatever.'

Given that Thanksgiving is tomorrow and many of you will be extremely busy, I will sum up the next 50 articles by the Wapo: “Trump is bad. Trump is mean.” You’re welcome.

Then he never should've been AG. Clinton sent, received & stored Classified, TS & Special Access Programs on her toilet server, most dangerous compromise to natl sec. Comey knew. Clapper knew, Obama knew. THEY ALL KNEW & covered it up. A govt official isnt absolved FROM THE LAW

You do, If you want to get accepted in the dictator fraternity with the likes of: Putin, Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Hussein, Mao, Kim Jong-un and Gaddafi.

Old news! Trump didn’t take action—

The guy who said Americans have no right to habeas corpus, a fine guy for fake news to cite for deranged leftists. 😂

Yea, this guy has a war chest of secrets. How, in hell, can he cast a stone? I imagine someone just reminded him that there’s no angels among them and he’ll go silent.

They should be prosecuted.

HRC wins & there is no investigation. HRC loses & you can't investigate her. What a racket in DC.

Drain the swamp and put killery in jail!

Not impressed while the Rebuke/Impeachment ratio is 1.0

Ahhh the Washington Swamp Establishment, always circling the wagons to protect their own criminality. That is why nothing was fixed in Washington and this country for decades....until we elected President Trump. DrainTheSwamp

When you've lost Alberto Gonzalez....

You do if your name is Trump.

Don’t care Neo-con

“‘Trump Imitation Syndrome’ is afflicting the president’s liberal enemies” Thank you MGoodwin_NYPost!
