Trump fires Comey.

Hold onto your butts. We’re about to see this break wide open, or else plunge into dictatorship.

Claude Taylor, former Clinton staff who seems to have been right about everything else, is reporting the District Court for the EDVA responding aggressively. Praying that he’s right?

Comey is by no means the only person investigating the president.

But anyone with the power to keep this going is also under Trump’s control, i.e. fireable.

We need a special prosecutor and an independent commission. Something Trump can’t stymie.

Keep in mind, our closest analogue to this, Nixon, didn’t start getting articles of impeachment thrown at him until he dismissed Richard Cox, the independent prosecutor for the Watergate break-ins. I’m really hoping this is that moment.

It look Nixon 9 months after the Saturday Night Massacre to step down. He faced an oppositional majority in Congress and overwhelming evidence of his cover-up. This is not that situation. Trump’s own party controls Congress. We don’t know yet of any indictments that are ready to be brought.

I hope we’re closer than I think we are. Because we’re running out of time.

On this cheery note, please call all of your reps.

Tell them you demand an independent instigation. Do it right now, while it’s fresh.

Then do it again tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day, until we get what we need.

Please. Please call. We’re all we have to fight this.

Please. This is more than, I imagine, lots of potential dictatorships got. We CAN fight back.
