Logic is a funny thing. When it comes to politics it can best be discribed as relative. Depends on where you are standing and what you are looking at. And it also depends on who you are talking to.

A case in point is the use of the word 'transparency'. That word, like collusion, gets used a lot these days.

So President Trump has granted Attorney General William P. Barr “full and complete authority” to declassify government secrets, issuing a memorandum late Thursday that orders U.S. intelligence agencies to cooperate promptly with Barr’s audit of the investigation into Russia’s election interference in 2016. Dispite what critics in the media and Democrat politicians are saying this will not result in the wholesale publication of this information. Far from it. Trump has order Barr's DOJ to work with the inteligence agencies and produce relevant material.

So now the logic part with regards to transparency. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) who just happens to be the House Intelligence Committee Chairman, has spent the last two years demanding every possible bit of information about the President. He wants to know the color of his underwear and if he has ever spit on the sidewalk on Pennsylvania Avenue. Yet remarkably Mr. Schiff has had a change of heart, (or logic), and now thinks 'transparency' is bad. Even “un-American”. He tweets...

Quote:
While Trump stonewalls the public from learning the truth about his obstruction of justice,

Trump and Barr conspire to weaponize law enforcement and classified information against their political enemies.

The coverup has entered a new and dangerous phase.

This is un-American.
The most unbelievably ironic part is...

...to weaponize law enforcement and classified information against their political enemies.

We are about to find out if this is not the exact thing that the Obama administration did. And if that is true who knew what and how did they know? And why would this be a bad thing and 'un-American'? And why would Rep. Schiff and others not want to know if anything wrong or illegal was done? I can only think of one reason.
