The database already exists for controlled substances, at least in most states. However, giving access to anyone other than medical personnel opens a number of issues, privacy and otherwise, that I don’t think we want to get into.

It would still be protected information. Its not like the employee at Academy sports is going to get access to your medical history. They just do the background check which either comes back clear or not.

The government can already access pretty much any digital database it wants. The idea of privacy from the federal government is a delusion at this point. I'm not saying that is a good thing, but this would be a weird place to draw the line IMO

Atty. Gen. Jeff Sessions has been fired . . anyone here surprised ?

Surprised no, happy yes. Bring on Trey Gowdy

The king of long investigations himself. Surely that would mean Mueller’s investigation will be protected just like the Benghazi investigation?...

Trey Gowdy has been on record that he believes that Mueller should be allowed to complete his investigation.

And he will be, but you will still be disappointed.

Which is a sound argument for why he won’t get the job. Trump wants to shut this thing down before junior gets indicted.

I think Gowdy is fed up with Washington as a whole anyway.

LOL . . I'm already disappointed in 45. He's looking more and more like a trapped & desperate rat . .

Agreed . .

However, Mueller is 1000 times smarter than Trump, he's a master chess player, while, the Dotard is playing checkers, I'm sure that he has ultimately expected this move by 45 and has taken steps to ensure the evidence he has already collected will be preserved.

Plus, the rumor I heard last week is that Mueller has subpoenaed 45 . .

 

[BillyL]

Unseal the indictments . . ! Let's get this party started.

Mueller is an idiot. Have you ever looked at his track record? He should be mopping the floor at McDonald's, not running an obviously ridiculous investigation.

Rod Rosenstein on the way to a meeting at the White House . . . will he resign ?

The history of Mueller.

http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-mueller-record-20171122-story.html

An interesting excerpt:

Richard B. Mazer, a defense lawyer at both trials, said the government was unable to prove the Hells Angels was a racketeering enterprise. Key prosecution witnesses, he said, seemed unreliable — especially those granted immunity to testify despite having committed violent crimes themselves.


“They made a mess of it,” Mazer recalled. “It was an entirely snitch case. It depended entirely on the quality of snitches.”

Does that sound familar to anyone else?

 

[uncboy10]

I think Gowdy is fed up with Washington as a whole anyway.

I think he's a partisan hack that plays up the whole "anti government" stance while simultaneously making sure that the government can't get anything done. I don't believe a single one of the small government conservatives in Washington believe what they preach. They don't want to see the government shrink. The government is their employer.

From what I've gathered, he has a pretty sound record from an ethics standpoint though. So if he's appointed I hope that continues. The president cannot be shielded from federal investigations. That's something we all should agree on.

Isn't that what an anti-government politician would do?

Yeah its a brilliant tautology. Claim the government is ineffective, while make sure that it is from the inside.

To be fair, being 1000 times smarter than trump is a low bar to set.

 

[NoleSoup4U]

Wut? If you felt that government was the problem, wouldn't you attempt to keep said government from causing problems? That seem pretty common sense to me.

 

[uncboy10]

That’s not my point at all. Trying to prevent the government from causing problems is completely different than making sure it causes problems so that you can use rhetoric about the government causing problems.

What has Gowdy done to intentionally cause problems?

Preplanned weeks ago, but I hope he does.

Trump has pre-planned many things weeks ago. However, I would not be surprised one bit, if, RR says fvck you . . I know you're going down because I've been privy to the evidence against you.

As Trey Gowdy said about 45 . . "If, you're innocent, then act like it". Unfortunately, and to every American's major disappointment & fears, he simply hasn't . .

Desperate folks do desperate things. Today, we witnessed another one of those abuse of power acts in which the POTUS has engaged in.

Yeap abuse of power, firing someone.

Firing someone to try and protect yourself from a federal investigation.

Not someone, just those that are investigating you . . there's a big dif . .

I had to laugh at that myself . . . CNN, the enemy of the people. LMFAO @ that. What a major meltdown the POTUS had today at that press conference . . I've seen 3rd graders act more Presidential than the buffoon we saw today, the media ate his ass up . . nice victory lap there 45. Great spin, in the fact that you lost the House and knowing they'll be investigating you and yours in the very near future, and those threats you passed out will not stop Pelosi & company.

We are coming for you.

Have a nice day.

The idea that a president should be able to withhold their taxes should have sent up a red flag to everyone on day 1.

Isn't it kinda funny that the POTUS acting like a petulant child makes certain people say "Yeah that's my guy." The more intelligent conservatives are ashamed of him pretty much every time he opens his mouth.

Yo 45 . . . the walls are closing in and you feel like a trapped & cornered RAT . . ! Your criminal empire is about to go down, bigly.

Dems taking the house is eating yo' pathetic, sorry, dumbs!t ass up is it not . . they can now subpoena every FBI agent that may have been part of the Mueller info and we'll know what they have on your lying fatass.

# If,you'reinnocenthenactlikeit. ~ Trey Gowdy

 

[prlyles]

No one cares. Trump can go to jail tomorrow. He’s already done what needed to be done. He’s energized and empowered enough of the American public that his legacy will live on. No more kowtowing to radical minority groups. No more globalism. No more unchecked immigration and no more goddam jerky beef. It’s America first. It’s jobs before mobs. It’s MAGA. Trump doesn’t need to be around for any of it anymore. Oh, and we got two SCOTUS seats out of him. Lock him up. No one gives a shit.

This post says it all......

They won't talk about an ongoing investigation.

Trump will never go under. Pipe dream for anyone who thinks he will. I’ve never seen one man make so many ppl go batshit crazy. My life has been no better nor no worse since Trump. Actually it has been a little better but that’s bc I’ve worked my ass off. Not bc of anything he gave me.
