Rep. Adam Schiff: Trump commuting Stone an appalling attack on rule of law



Rep. Adam Schiff, chair of the House Intelligence Committee, reacts to the news that Donald Trump has commuted the prison sentence of Roger Stone, accusing Trump and Bill Barr of reducing U.S. democracy to mafia rules.

“We will go back to the district court,” Schiff said. “We are very confident we can meet these new tests that the Supreme Court enumerated, this four-part test. And, so, we will prevail, but again if we get the records and they show, in fact, that the president is beholden, does have financial entanglements that might explain, you know, for example, this bizarre affinity for Vladimir Putin and Russia or his interest in Turkey’s Erdogan or Saudi Arabia or other financial interests that are guiding and warping U.S. policy, if we don’t get that for months until — you know, from months from now, it means the country continues to be in jeopardy during that delay.”




PUTIN! That’s what this is all about. Shifty is still trying to push the phony baloney narrative that Trump has some bizzare affinity for Putin.
If Trump hasn’t made this clear, he is gracious and nice to any dictator he thinks he can negotiate with. He praised Kim Jong Un when he was trying to negotiate with him, called him a great leader or something. He’s said similar things about President Xi of China when negotiating with him. It’s just what Trump does.
But Shifty still wants people to believe, regardless of Trump’s tough sanctions against Russia and all the proof that’s come out to vindicate him, that he’s somehow beholden to Putin. And by the way, he only threw in Erdogan and the Saudis to lessen the ‘blow’ of him bringing up Russia again. But that’s clearly what all this is about. Which is just one more reason Trump should keep his taxes from these evil people.

Cho tam giác ABC vuông tại A có AB < AC. Vẽ AH vuông góc với BC ( H thuộc BC), D là điểm trên cạnh AC sao cho AD=AB. Vẽ DE vuông góc với BC( E thuộc BC). Chứng minh rằng : HA=HE.

Cho tam giác ABC vuông ở B, kéo dài AC về phía C một đoạn CD=AB=1, góc CBD=30 độ. Tính AC.
