To hear House Democrats and left-wing media outlets tell it, any discharge of President Donald Trump’s official duties that might tangentially benefit him politically is now a high crime or misdemeanor and an impeachable offense. It’s like saying creating jobs and improving the economy is a personal political interest and impeachable. But Presidents and their Attorneys General are supposed to enforce the law, ensure intelligence and spy powers are not abused and to root out corruption. Under Article II, Section 3 of the Constitution, the President shall “take care that the laws be faithfully executed…” For Barr’s part, he oversees the nation’s Justice Department and is responsible for ensuring that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is not abused. Both have a legitimate interest in rooting out corruption, even if those who are breaking the law are members of the opposition party and are doing it overseas. To be fair, that would have been the justification for the Obama administration’s counterintelligence investigation into Trump in 2016, too, which could have been legitimate. The FBI is supposed to prevent foreign infiltration of the nation’s governmental institutions. The reason the spying was illegitimate was not because it was done on the opposition party in an election year — although that would have been reason to proceed with great care, which was not done — it is because the allegations were made-up out of whole cloth. And agencies may have had reason to know it was all fake. What do you think?
