Well…as I talked about briefly in the last post, it appears that trump has been caught talking to criminals or foreign agents under FISA investigation that is not part of the trump/Russia investigation. Now, let that sink in for a minute..either before, during, or after the election, trump is on tape talking to criminals or foreign agents…how many times was Obama caught doing that? Or how many times was Hillary caught doing that? You know the answer is zero. How long is it going to take for the House to start impeachment proceedings against trump? What he has admitted to doing, and what he is under investigation for in his collusion with Russia to steal the election, certainly rate as “high crimes and misdemeanors” that is the bar for impeachment….let’s get the chant started “lock him up!” Impeach…

Devin Nunes should be in jail…
Well….how very convenient to have the guy supposedly running the “investigation” into trump/Russia in the house, Devin Nunes, be part of the trump transition team and actively trying to derail the “investigation”. If you needed any evidence of that, you just have to look at Nunes behavior today, when he came into some intelligence provided by the IC FOR his investigation and immediately set up a meeting with trump and his cronies to share that information that was supposed to be for the eyes of the committee only. There is a reason that trump is not being given this information…he is under investigation for crimes committed with his collusion with Russia during the election. Now, at the very least this is obstruction of justice and this idiot should be charged and convicted of it, but what if the investigation included Nunes in his role as trump transition team leader? Where the hell are you on this one Comey? And why is Nunes still being briefed when he is probably under investigation just as trump is? Nunes needs to resign right now….it sure looks like trump is going to have plenty of company in jail…impeach…
Update: As more information comes out, it appears that trump was caught in another investigation that is not the one delving into his Russian ties….so in a different criminal investigation, or when talking to foreign agents under FISA investigation, they have trump on wiretap….Sean Spicer, that doesn’t look better as you are trying to spin it….Obama didn’t tap trump, but he was talking to criminals that were being tapped…spin that one genius…
Gorsuch gets slapped….
Well…as the confirmation hearings go on for Neil Gorsuch and he continues to try to hide his hard right judicial philosophy….the supreme court did us all a favor by ruling unanimously in a case that came through Gorsuch’s court that he was really wrong in his legal reasoning…and if you lose Thomas and Alito, you are way outside even their right wing rulings. But first, the pattern of Gorsuch’s fealty to corporations and their interests was established by another ruling of Gorsuch’s in the so-called “frozen trucker” case, where Gorsuch ruled that a worker could be fired because he abandoned a disabled trailer in sub zero temperatures to keep from freezing to death…yep, he doesn’t give a damn about workers, thinking them as little more than slaves to be forced to die to protect the corporations property. But, the unanimous ruling yesterday that said that school districts can’t just provide “the minimus” in education to special needs students…which is just warehousing them without any education, and what Gorsuch ruled in the case… that if they just looked at them once or twice a day, that was just fine….what we don’t need on the supreme court is another far right corporatist who has never once in his career ruled for workers or people’s rights over his billionaire backers rights…..send him home….
The Russian mob and Trump…
Well…I see now where the FBI admitted they had wiretaps in trump tower…but, it’s not what you think…not on trump, but on the Russian mob’s money laundering, illegal betting, and extortion ring that ran from trump tower for years….and when the FBI closed in to shut the operation down, one of the ringleaders got away and skittered back to Russia like the cockroach that he is…but, here’s the good part…a few weeks later, at trump’s Miss Universe pageant that was being held in Moscow, this mob boss shows up in the VIP section of trumps pageant, schmoozing with trump and the rest of the criminals that trump has dealings with. Now, I harp on this a lot for the hypocrisy that the repubs show all the time in everything they do, but if Obama had even done half of what the idiot trump has done in his first 60 days, there would be a hundred investigations and full throated calls for impeachment…why not now? Ask the repubs…impeach….
God’s a polluter now?
Well…as we all know by now, the repubs think that all of the country’s ills are the responsibility of the EPA and getting rid of the agency that ensures that our air and water are safe is first on their agenda. The reasons they are using for gutting the agency are becoming more and more ridiculous by the day and yesterday a repub rep, Scott Perry, laid down a beaut….blaming god for pollution in the Chesapeake Bay, saying that “forests are providing a certain amount of phosphates and nitrates to the bay”. Now living in a truth free environment seems to be par for the course for repubs these days, but setting environmental policy by idiocy and fantasy is a sure way to ensure that the environment will get worse under these idiots…as will everything else….geez…
Where were you in July, Comey?
Well…there is a hearing going on in the house today with James Comey on the Russian collusion with trump to throw the election his way….there have been a few things that have come out that are eye opening to say the least….that the FBI has a counter intelligence operation going that involves Russia and the trump campaign and have had one since last July…and that means that they are pretty sure the Russians were using the trumpsters to spy here in the US…and they are sure that the Russian actions were meant to hurt Hillary and help trump…they were not the innocuous “meetings” that trump has said they were but part of a Russian intelligence gathering operation. I don’t see how that is much different from what Comey did before the election…he was trying to throw it it trump, too. But, let’s give him the benefit of the doubt for a while… a very little while….the worst part of the hearing is the sick display that the repubs are putting on, not even trying to get to the bottom of the Russian interference…they think the Huuuge crime here is that someone leaked that there was criminal behavior going on, not the criminal behavior itself. This is your modern repub party folks…party before country, party before doing the job the American people elected them to do….so much for the party of the supposed patriots…they are perfectly fine that Russia threw the election…just as long as it’s to their guy….impeach…
Team incompetence….
Well…I think there are pitfalls to filling critical government positions with golfing buddies and billionaires, and team incompetence (aka the trump administration) has just fallen into a huge one with Rex Tillersons first meeting with the Chinese. Now, this low energy idiot had to cut his trip short since he suffered from “fatigue” but not before giving the Chinese everything they wanted, basically telling them that they can do whatever they want and there won’t be any consequences from us….yep, this idiot just threw away more than 70 years of diplomatic efforts from both repub and dem administrations that had kept the Chinese in check and I’m not sure if it is just another instance of this whole administration just not giving a damn about being prepared or it is just plain stupidity on Tillerson’s part. Either way, our strategic interests in Asia have just been damaged for nothing…just from trump and his incompetent team….impeach….
Meals on wheels vs. golf….
Well…just a shorty here on what the priorities of the trump administration are…as I told you earlier, trump proposes to eliminate the Meals on Wheels program that serves some of our most needy and deserving Americans since we “just can’t afford it”….so let’s take a look at what he thinks we can afford…every time he goes to play golf it costs over 3 million dollars of taxpayer money…to put this into perspective that would pay for over 450,000 meals for our seniors delivered to their door so they can stay in their homes…but the immoral trump thinks it’s more important for him to play golf than feed our seniors…that is one of the most sick things I have ever heard…and I’ll bet quite a few of these seniors he wants to starve voted for trump….impeach…
The damage done….
Well…now that the trump gestapo has starting imposing themselves on American citizens coming back into the country by confiscating and searching their phones in direct violation of the 4th amendment, maybe there will be more outrage about what damage the Border Patrol and other immigration agents are doing in the name of trump. Over the past week, the Canadian Girl Scouts, called the Girl Guides, have issued a travel ban for any of their troops that were thinking of traveling to the US. Some would say that this is an overreaction to what is going on here but I say it is a perfectly reasonable thing to do with the horror stories of children being detained and handcuffed for hours by the INS if they were Muslim or had Muslim families. This is what this country has come to under trump…that Girl Guides from Canada are at risk of being traumatized by the INS or Border Patrol so they just won’t come here anymore…that is “freedom” to the trump followers and his gestapo but it is shameful to our country and all I can do is hang my head…I just hate these son of a bitches…impeach…
You’ve been screwed, trump voters…
Well…how do you feel now trump voters? Voting for hate and racism has gotten you this…once you got trump into office he has turned on you like the liar he is…filling his government with Goldman Sachs execs who will only pursue policies that will help the rich, not you ignorant fools. Both in his trumpcare proposal that will take healthcare away from many of you and make it un-affordable for the rest of you…leaving you to die early or go broke paying for your healthcare…to his budget which will destroy any program that helped you at all….jobs training? Gone. Environmental protections that finally gave you in coal country clean air and water? Gone. You get the picture…no, you probably don’t. You are propelled by hatred and racism and have been manipulated by trump and his cronies…aren’t you pissed about how much you’ve been lied to? Or are you too ignorant to turn off fox news and think for yourself? Your hero trump went on tv and admitted his policies will hurt the counties that voted for him most and then he said oh, well…that’s just how it is. Feeling pretty stupid yet? You should be….impeach…
