Hundreds of former federal prosecutors have signed onto a statement asserting that President Trump would have been indicted for obstruction of justice were he not currently serving as
president.
The open letter organized by the nonprofit group Protect Democracy had roughly 400 signatures when it was initially posted Monday afternoon on Medium. The letter neared 700
signatures as of Tuesday afternoon. Among the new signatories are Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), a former U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, and Rep. Kathleen Rice
(D-Mass.), a former prosecutor in the U.S. Attorney's office in Philadelphia.
The letter claims that were it not for a Department of Justice guidance stating that a sitting president cannot be indicted, Trump would have been charged with obstruction of justice
based off the evidence laid out in special counsel Robert Mueller's report.
“Each of us believes that the conduct of President Trump described in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report would, in the case of any other person not covered by the Office of Legal
Counsel policy against indicting a sitting President, result in multiple felony charges for obstruction of justice,” the letter reads.
Impeach
Nancy Pelosi: Donald Trump is 'goading' Democrats on impeachment to rally his base
The boss is still against it
You are aware of what impeachment means though, right?
it's when you lob rotten peaches at the president
This is the only way we can stop this cunt from going truly tyrannical
In the midst of mind-blowing levels of corruption, it's important to treasure these seemingly-small yet crucial examples of individuals standing up for the rule of law.
On a similar note, this is as good a time as any to tell you guys that I've been accepted to law school. I start this fall and I'm strongly considering a career as a federal prosecutor, specifically because of everything that's happening right now.

We don't need any more than one rotten peach on stage.
congrats, welcome to hell. Don't (under any circumstances) forget why you went to law school. Don't compare yourself to others either. Just do you.
