Trump's latest tweet about the legislation that Marsha Blackburn blocked is wrong. Blackburn blocked a bill that would require campaigns to report any offers of foreign assistance to the FBI. It was not about a "do-over on the Mueller report," as he falsely claims.

What is the President hiding in his tax returns? And since when does “shall” mean “unless it displeases Trump”? And, perhaps more importantly: What will be left of DOJ’s independence and reputation for impartial justice after Barr? The answer? Very little.
