“Across the Capital the Barricades Are Going Up”

April 26, 2019 By Richard C. Young

After playing nicely with the Mueller investigation for years, with no evidence of collusion with Russia being found, the Trump administration is refusing to be led into an investigation feeding frenzy by House Democrats. Partisan investigations deserve partisan responses, and Trump is right to ignore Democrats’ demands for information regarding issues that the nonpartisan special counsel has already cleared him on. Pat Buchanan writes at The American Conservative (abridged):

President Donald Trump has decided to cease cooperating with what he sees, not incorrectly, as a Beltway conspiracy that is out to destroy him.

“We’re fighting all the subpoenas,” Trump said Wednesday. “These aren’t, like, impartial people. The Democrats are out to win in 2020.”

Thus the Treasury Department just breezed by a deadline from the House Ways and Means Committee to deliver Trump’s tax returns.

Thus the White House will invoke executive privilege to deny the House Judiciary Committee access to ex-White House counsel Don McGahn, who spent 30 hours being interrogated by Robert Mueller’s team.

Thus the Justice Department is withholding from the Oversight Committee subpoenaed documents dealing with the decision to include a question on the 2020 Census about citizenship status.

Across the capital, the barricades are going up figuratively as they did physically in the 1960s and ’70s. Once more, it’s us against them.

Cognizant of the new reality, Trump seems to be saying:

These House investigations constitute a massive political assault, in collusion with a hostile media, to destroy my presidency.

We do not intend to cooperate in our own destruction. We are not going to play our assigned role in this scripted farce.
