The ‘I’ Word -Part 1

President Trump needs to be less transparent. There was no need to release any transcript unless Congress goes through the appropriate steps to obtain it. Any risk to national security, is because the transcript was released bypassing the proper procedural request.

The Democrats are now calling President Trump a liar because they claim that “there is no evidence” to support his claims about  former Vice President Biden and his son, with regard to the former Vice President making a direct threat to shake down the former President of The Ukraine, in exchange for foreign aid. The only reason there is no evidence is because of the failure of The D.O.J., The D.N.I., The C.I.A., and The F.B.I to investigate Biden or Obama about the Ukraine shenanigans concerning Biden and his son’s affairs there.

Anyone that thinks Obama had nothing to do with it, or knew about what went on, really must think Obama was the biggest dummy ever to be born. Biden boasted about the deal publicly. My advice for the President – MAKE YOURSELF A LOT LESS TRANSPARENT! Anything you say or do needs to be reviewed by your counsel. Wake up! There is an open impeachment investigation. In other words, Mr. President, you are being accused of a crime. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE TO ANSWER ANYTHING YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE AN ATTORNEY PRESENT BEFORE ANSWERING QUESTIONS. Anything said will be turned around to incriminate you.

President Obama hid all kinds of stuff with no press conferences, the $150 billion to Iran, The Dream Act, Solyndra, ‘keep your doctor’, and only after these things were put into motion, did the press get informed.

 Let the Democrats beat this dead horse for the next twelve months. If you keep giving them fodder, regardless of your innocence, they will prolong the accusations. It’s of no consequence now, but next September it could come back to bite you.

There are a lot of idiots that by the bull crap the Liberal media outlets and social media are selling to them.

 A little less arrogance, a little more poise might serve you well, President Trump, at least for the time being. I know, it’s not getting past The Senate, but let’s get there first.

Take the Fifth

The House Congressional Oversight Committee continues to beat the dead horse of Trump obstruction and collusion. Apparently they have handed down another bunch of subpoenas to former Trump cabinet members, the former Attorney General and other associates. Nadler throws around subpoenas like confetti at a ticker tape parade. This Congressional Oversight Committee is one of the more obvious wastes of taxpayer’s money. Not only are they wasting taxpayer money, but they are being exhibitionist about it, in a circus format.

Has anyone ever watched one of these so called hearings on TV? It reminds me of a Star Trek episode where Q holds court accusing Captain Picard responsible for the crimes of humanity.  All these people that receive these subpoenas need to do is apply their Fifth Amendment rights, just like Lois Lerner did. These people are being called in for the sole purpose to get them into a perjury trap. The committee cares nothing about their testimony in substance. They’ve heard from all these people before. Knowing the intent of the committee, these Republicans, if they can still call themselves that, need to plead the fifth.

 Look at the history of what happened to General Flynn. This four star hero that served our country in combat, no less, may be looking at a stint in prison because of this type of trap. Now, compare that to what happened to Lois Lerner. She answered nothing in the affirmative, invoking her Fifth Amendment rights, and as far as I know has been charged with nothing, despite overwhelming evidence of discrimination against conservative nonprofit groups seeking their 501 status from the I.R.S.

 Republicans need to stop being chumps, and follow the same playbook as their corrupt counterpart Democrats. Taking the so called “high road” is getting them nowhere; the media will turn things around or edit their testimony to hold court in public opinion, anyway. In my opinion these government committees are not only a waste of taxpayer’s money, but they serve no practical purpose other than political theater. They can neither charge someone of a crime nor convict, they can only “recommend” to The Department of Justice. as to their findings.

I thought that that was why we have a Judicial Court system in this country. If someone is accused they should be charged, not made a mockery of at one of these circus hearings first.

Recent Hearings on Capitol Hill

In watching the hearings interviewing Christopher Wray, the F.B.I. Director, and Rod Rosenstein, the assistant Attorney General, it seems that the Democrats were more focused on President Trump’s tweets than the miscarriage of justice perpetuated by Peter Strzok and how the D.O.J. has handled the matter.

The focus of the hearings was to get some answers from the bureau, and the D.O.J. with regard to the delays in documents being provided to Congress, that are required by law, for proper oversight for the American people as to the conduct of the two agencies. Two of the democratic Congresswomen totally flew off base, with one obsessing about the possibility of racial profiling of police officers mistakenly shooting African-American suspects. The other Democrat Congresswoman went on a tirade about the separation of families attempting to enter the country illegally, with the basis of her concerns, mostly on fake news and unsubstantiated rumors about what is actually happening there, and why.

All that being said, the last time I checked, “tweeting” falls under the category of one’s first amendment rights, regardless of what position or office they may hold. Furthermore “Tweets” are by definition, opinions and are not evidence that can be used to indict someone of a crime or for that matter, a definition of one’s character. If the Democrats would spend less time subjectively interpreting the President’s tweets, and more on serving the constituents that elected them, maybe they would have a better approval rating, and who knows maybe accomplish some good things for this country.

Department of Justice Corruption

It has now become clear that there were improprieties at the highest level of the previous administration’s Department of Justice. It has also become clear that the Democrats are trying desperately to hide these improprieties.  The evidence being dragged out of the deep state actors still employed at The Department of Justice are coming to light on a daily basis. There are now real concerns about the integrity of the Mueller probe. While Chuck Schumer and Adam Schiff are questioning the right of the President to have Congress more closely examine the facts here, only proves further, how far off the rails the Democratic Party has gone.

The fact is that it is the constitutional duty of Congress to examine, and have oversight of any questionable activity that has occurred in the judicial branch of government. Adam Schiff and Chuck Schumer have both made bold claims that Trump’s demanding to have classified documents turned over to Congress, is undermining the rule of law.

The truth of the matter is that the Democrats are the ones who have consistently undermined the rule of law throughout the entire Obama administration. Remember President Obama’s famous quote?  “I have a pen and a phone, and I intend to use them.”  The fact is that the runaway corruption, and lawlessness over the past eight years has become standard operating procedure for the Democrats. The true rule of law is now slapping them in the face, and they are not happy campers. They went “all in” on the gamble that they could circumvent the democratic process at the polls by using the Department of Justice in this corrupt way and maintain power by getting Hillary Clinton elected.

Now to quote Obama’s preacher, “…the chickens have come home to roost.”  Had Clinton won, all this stuff would have been swept under a rug.

This brings me to the final point that only proves that the entire Mueller investigation has been a ruse, a distraction, a way to give the corrupt Department of Justice time to try to cover their tracks. Thankfully, there are still those who work in the department that have the dignity and integrity to both preserve documents, and have the courage to stand against the criminal actors. I have stated it before, but now it really is time to fire Mueller, and have all the documents he has collected over the past eighteen months revealed. Rosenstein should be the next to go, and Clapper, Yates, and Brennan need to be prosecuted, like General Flynn, for lying under oath.

The American people deserve to see equal justice for all these bad actors. It is the only sure way for The Department of Justice to begin to earn back the trust of The American people.

Devin Nunez House Intel

On January 29, 2018, the House Intelligence Committee approved the release of a long anticipated memo, summarizing the activities of the F.B.I. and the D.O.J. during the campaign and election cycle of 2016.

The Democrats have been fighting tooth and nail to obstruct this release for several months, and one can’t help but to assume the memo contains a litany of what may amount to criminal activities by corrupt individuals in both departments, and the Executive Branch, to tear down the very fabric of our democracy.

If one can reflect, for a moment, on the events that occurred during the Obama administration, it is not very difficult to make that assumption. Failures in the D.O.J., the Executive Branch, and at the State Department, led to not only loss of life, but the trust of the American people as well.

Let’s review. There is:

  1. Eric Holder’s failed “fast and furious” covert operation.
  2. The disastrous actions by our government to support the overthrow of Hosni Mubarak, creating a false narrative of embezzlement and murder (but later he was cleared of the charges), all in order to justify supplying arms and logistical support to The Muslim Brotherhood that took control of the Egyptian government, and then became major sponsor of the terrorist group ISIS.
  3. The retreat from Iraq and Afghanistan, allowing the terrorist organization to fester, also leading to a bunch of airline hijackings and disappearances, to which the group claimed responsibility.
  4. The strict guidelines placed on our troops restricting the rules of engagement, leading to more unnecessary American troop casualties.
  5. The inaction to assist the Ukrainian government when Putin sent troops to suppress the democracy there.
  6. The ousting of Muammar Gaddafi in Libya which led to the failures in Benghazi. Basically this is the complete collapse, corruption, and failure of the State Department under Hillary Clinton’s tutelage during her tenure.
  7. What about the explosion of the nation’s debt? How else do you suppose the economy was able to float along at nearly zero G.D.P. for eight years? Somehow the Obama Administration managed to borrow and spend   11 trillion dollars, pump it into the economy through government programs, and keep anyone from becoming suspicious. The failed trade policies with China weren’t any help in that regard either.

Now we are finding out about “Uranium One” and the relaxed policy regarding Hezbollah drug trafficking, and “the Pelican Project”, Fusion GPS and it’s fake dossier, Comey and Lynch collusion, and the messaging between Strzok, Page and McCabe at the F.B.I.?

So it’s not too hard to make the assumption that there was some wrongdoing going on in the D.O.J.  President Obama is directly tied to all of this, and it doesn’t take a genius to figure it out. The President is briefed daily about the activities of all the departments, and in most cases, must approve, or disapprove of those activities. Not only was he aware, but was complicit in the actions, or inaction at the D.O.J., and at the State Department.

If this memo indicates that there was unlawful unmasking of members of the Trump campaign through the use of a document created, paid for, then deemed classified, by political party opposition, to obtain F.I.S.A. warrants as well as attempts to subvert the election by prematurely exonerating Hillary Clinton, and corrupting the F.B.I. investigation into hers and others illegal activities, then you can be assured that President Obama was in it up to his eyeballs.

In addition, if this is the case, it completely discredits the Mueller probe, and warrants the need for a new, impartial investigation into not only top ranking officials at the F.B.I., but also the D.O.J. and Loretta Lynch, the Clinton’s, and the former President as well. This cuts to the heart of what president Trump refers to as “The Swamp”. This stuff makes “Watergate” look like a runaway at a lemonade stand! Only when these prominent figures are brought to account, can Americans truly have faith in government.
