Well…woke up this morning to the news that the Ukrainians have opened an investigation, but it’s not really the one that the idiot trump wanted. After the House released the information from the Lev Parnas investigation that showed that Rudy’s conspiracy had Ambassador Yovanovitch under surveillance, the Ukrainian Interior Ministry opened a criminal investigation into those involved…hey, I wonder if ole Rudy is going to be going back to Ukraine in the future? Yeah, probably not since he would end up in custody if he did since, if true, he violated both Ukrainian law and the Vienna conventions that protect ambassadors from this type of treatment…and now isn’t it ironic that Ukraine is investigating these threats while the US and Bill Barr’s justice department have swept all of this criminal activity under the rug and are not doing a damn thing about it? This is going to be an interesting story to follow over the next couple of days and there are more shoes to drop in the second part of the Parnas interview with Rachael that will be on tonight…and with the announcement of the investigation by the Ukraine, it appears that they are no longer afraid of trump and his conspirators since this extortion scheme hit daylight…so, don’t let anyone tell you that impeachment wasn’t or isn’t worth it…the people of Ukraine surely wouldn’t….

It just keeps getting worse…
Well…just got back from a long bike ride and I am still trying to warm up with little success so after I do this, it’s under the blanket time…after the release of more information about Lev Parnas’ involvement in the Ukraine extortion scandal, the scandal just keeps getting worse and worse. With the latest revelations, it appears that Parnas and his cronies had the ambassador they were trying to get rid of under surveillance and were tracking her movements for some reason…and that reason was cryptically revealed to be the possibility of paying someone in the Ukraine that Parnas and his criminals were working with to “get rid” of her and they talked about how much money that would take. Now, to me and to other people who have experience with reporting on organized crime, this sounds like they were getting ready for a “hit” on her and the state department took the threats so seriously that they told her to get out of Ukraine on the “next plane”. So now we have a “president” whose criminal cronies were going to kill an ambassador to get her out of the way of their corrupt schemes and not one damn repub is saying it’s wrong or commenting at all…I guess now murder is not an impeachable offense, either….and they are going to help idiot boy get away with it…but not for long…
They’re not even trying to hide their interference…
Well…with reports over the weekend that Russia has hacked the Ukrainian gas company Burisma that was in the center of the trumped up charges of corruption against Joe Biden’s son, we can see that Russia is at it again, trying to throw the election to trump. And, this time, they are not even trying to hide that it is the Russian intelligence service GRU who is doing the hacking since Moscow Mitch has made it clear that he is not going to do a damn thing to stop them. Mitch won’t even allow election security bills to come to the floor of the senate, even though there are many of them that have been passed by the House and Mitch has been told by the IC that the measures are critical to keeping the Russians from installing trump for a second term. I am little puzzled by the hacking of Burisma looking for dirt on the Biden’s since we saw in 2016 that actual evidence was not necessary for the Russians to be successful in getting Fox news and the entire repub party to spread the lies about Hillary that hurt her campaign…but, it may be that just the announcing of Russian hacking of Burisma will be enough for the fevered brains of the trump cult to just “know” that there must be something there or why would the Russians waste time hacking them? Sowing doubt is one of the favorite ways that Russian intelligence disrupts elections around the world and to think the repubs would want to give up that advantage…of having an entire foreign government helping you win elections is living in a dream world…they are all evil traitors led by evil traitors….after we win in the fall, there will be no more protecting these criminals by refusing to cooperate with investigations…and the legacies of all of these traitors will be burned to the ground…as they deserve…
Liars and incompetents….
Well….as I’ve asked many, many, many, many times…is there anything that this WH won’t lie about? Or are they just the most incompetent screw ups that this country has ever seen? Yep, trick question…they’re both….just yesterday the idiots at the WH tweeted a picture of the WH with snow falling around it with the caption: “first snow of the year!” and that set twitter ablaze with comments…especially since it was almost 70 degrees in DC Sunday and there was not a hint of snow anywhere for hundreds of miles….and the first snow of the year was early last week. Now, who are these people who would get up in the morning and think to themselves “I think I’ll go to work today and lie about snow”….can we finally call them the worst people in the world? I know it’s wearing to point out all of the lies these people spew on a daily basis, but we have to…we have to keep calling them out on their BS or it will be normalized and that will mean the end of this country….I know I’m tired….
Guess what? trump’s lying again…
Well…cripes the reasons for killing General Soleimani are growing like weeds in the backyard going from “he’s a bad guy” to planning to attack everything in the world including 4 of our embassies…but, do you believe any of this? Nope, not from the administration that does nothing but lie….and they can’t even get their lies straight…just this morning the ridiculous secretary of defense was on the morning shows trying to justify murder and let it slip that he hadn’t seen any intel to support the claim that 4 embassies were targeted…maybe one, but that wasn’t even clear and none of the rest of the idiot trump’s lies were supported either. Is it any wonder that the rest of the world has had enough of the liar in chief and are just basically ignoring anything he says…and are working actively to circumvent the latest attack on Iran with more sanctions? You could have heard the crickets from here when the other idiot Pompeo toured Europe trying to get them to back the ratcheting up of sanctions and he was told to get the hell out of Europe…hey did this ever happen when the black guy was president? Yeah, we all know the answer to that….the whole damn bunch of them is laughed at every day by the sane world and what reaction did they expect? Okay, yeah, delusional assholes expect that they are the most brilliant people in the room no matter what the evidence is…god, only 10 more months of this crap…
10 years and 300 million dollars…
Well…just wanted to do a short on on news that just came out this morning…after 8 different Benghazi “investigations’ and the latest investigation of Hillary and the Clinton Foundation, guess what the repubs found for wasting 10 years and 300 million dollars of your and my money? Nothing, not a damn thing, no bribes of foreign governments, no obstruction of justice, no self dealing from their charitable foundation, no fines for any wrongdoing….and just last night the asshole in chief led the “lock her up” chant at one of his hate rallies…did you notice all of the things I listed that she didn’t do? Yeah…all things that the idiot trump has done to break the law over the past three years and no one has done a damn thing about it…he is a damn criminal and yet you and I keep paying for him to go out and stir up hate every damn day….do you think this exoneration of Hillary will get any media play at all? Nope….but it should be front page in inch high type on every damn paper that bought into the right wing propaganda smears and gave the election to idiot boy….who is going to step up and tell the truth? No one I guess…
This is sick…
Well….what a sick piece of shit trump is…and so are all of the repubs who support him….buried in an article in the Murdoch owned Wall Street Journal today we now know why trump ordered the attack on Soleimani now…it was to help keep repubs onboard with acquitting him in the senate trial…in the same article it was reported that right wing hawk senators were were pressing him to attack Iran so of course the idiot trump is going to think about nothing but himself and do what they want…but, how damn sick is that? Murder someone just to keep repub senators from convicting and removing you from office? Over the past twenty years we have seen that repubs have absolutely no ethics or morals, but to press for murder in exchange for protection? This is a new low in this country where now murder is okay if it fits your political needs and there is only one party that would even consider this evil shit…and it sure as hell isn’t the dems….every damn one of them should be hauled to the Hague for war crimes….
Smorgasbord….
Well…just can’t get motivated to do a long one on a single topic so I think I’ll give you a smorgasbord on a few short ones instead…I just love it that Nancy has just told everyone that she’ll send over the articles of impeachment when she is damn good and ready…and then added soon…and that means not until she gets what she wants for the American people…a trial that is fair to them and gets to the truth…and, of course, trump’s drones in the senate went ballistic since they have already said that they will vote him innocent and don’t need no stinkin evidence to do it….just go a laugh when the NY state Bar Assn just asked the House to investigate bill Barr for his unethical behavior since he has been in office…which includes lying to congress and the American people…and conspiring with trump in extorting Ukraine for personal political gain…so we could have a AG who has been disbarred in the next couple of months…could only happen in a repub administration….did you see the news conference that the Adderal addled idiot gave yesterday? Cripes…he sure looked like someone who has been on a coke binge for a week and spoke like it too…like he didn’t know what to do with his tongue and the damn sniffing, sniffing, sniffing means he had just snorted something before he went out….I wonder who his dealer is? And who in the WH is crushing the Adderal up for him and getting it ready? Okay…that’s enough for now…I may come back for another one later if I feel like it but who knows?
This is what Nancy should do…
Well…with Moscow Mich McConnell stating yesterday that he intends to hold the impeachment trial without getting the articles or any evidence from the House, and not calling any witnesses or asking for any documents, it is even more clear that he intends the trial to be just another part of the coverup of trump’s criminality…and the pundits out there are saying that ole Mitch has checkmated Nancy Pelosi and there is nothing she can do about it. All I have to say is wait just a damn minute…I have thought about this the past few days and that just isn’t true…MoscowMitch may be able to hold a sham trial in the senate but that doesn’t keep Nancy from re-opening the impeachment inquiry and subpoenaing Bolton, Mulvaney, and Pompeo and then just waiting to have their appearances ordered by the court…..and this will drag on until this fall just before the election and keep it in front of voters until then. As time goes on, the repubs keep inventing new restrictions on the impeachment, saying that the House only gets one chance and since they have finished the impeachment, that’s it…they can’t go back and do anything else…but that’s not true…Nancy runs the House and can do whatever she wants, especially in the face of Mitch’s conspiring with trump. The statement she should put out would go something like this: Since Mitch McConnell has made it clear that he will not hold a trial that supports the right of the American people to know what the president and his cronies have done, but to help coverup the president’s wrongdoing, he has left the House no choice but to re-open the impeachment inquiry to make sure the American people finally get the truth about trump’s extortion of a foreign government for personal political gain. Never in the history of this country has a Senate Majority leader ignored his oath to the Constitution and blocked the calling of witnesses or the requst of documents in an impeachment trial so we in the House will do our duty to our country and the American people by re-opening the impeachment in Donald Trump. Now, that is what she could do…the question is will she? She really should….
trump stands alone…
Well…wow, I’ve never seen so much shoe leather smoking as I have over the past couple of days as countries across the world backed away from the idiot trump as fast as they can after he ordered the murder of Soleimani without consulting or even notifying any of our allies, what few of them are left. Even Bibi Netenyahu, who has never seen a murder he didn’t love, held his hands up and shouted that Israel had nothing do do with any of it…and even after trump’s cronies tried to pressure Europe and the UK after the fact to support their stupidity, no one would even hedge a little, basically leaving trump and his cronies to stand alone in the world…how’s that for making America great again? Over the past three years trump has taken our stature in the world from the top to the bottom with his stupidity, ignorance and bullying and I wonder how long it is going to take to repair that after he is in jail somewhere? The biggest fallout so far from this deranged infatuation with Iran is that it has left a power vacuum in the middle east that Russia and China were more than happy to exploit since they have adults that actually know something running their foreign policy…and I wonder what Putin is thinking? He invests a few million dollars installing the idiot and his cronies and has gotten everything he wanted and more…now, the world trusts frickin Russia and Putin more than they trust the US and we are the ones who are now the most dangerous country in the world according to new polling that is out in the past couple of weeks. So now, repubs…you have destroyed everything you used to stand for and are letting the moron continue to do it every day…how the hell do you live with yourselves?
