Well…with all of the hand wringing on the dems part about the political risks of impeaching the criminal in the WH, I think that they are missing the damn point…it is the House’s job to impeach idiot boy now that there is absolutely no doubt he’s a criminal who has committed crimes while in office…house dems have no choice but to ignore those risks if they value this country more than the repubs do and get on with impeachment…we all know that the repubs in the senate won’t convict even though trump’s crimes are clear…but, that’s not the point…the point is that we need to protect this country from trump and we cannot ignore that he is still committing crimes every day and I think the dems are misreading the political winds…the idiot’s approval rating is down to 37% with almost 68% of the country believing that he committed crimes, and I think if the dems do a good job of explaining why they are doing what they are doing in relatable terms…such as “if someone robbed your house but he was a powerful mayor, for example, who no one is holding accountable for his crimes, how would you feel?” The ads against the repubs who voted to keep a criminal in office would write themselves…such as: “you follow the law, why doesn’t the president have to?” I really don’t care for the conventional wisdom that says dems have to be careful…bullshit…it’s time to start repairing the damage the repubs and trump have done to this country..and that starts with investigations and impeachment…

Still just damn exhausted…
Well…I am not sure what is going on but even after taking a nap this afternoon, I am still damn exhausted and I’m not sure at all why…oh, well…I really was going to do one on politics this afternoon but I am not motivated to do it…I think I’m in overload after the Mueller report and the 24/7 reporting on that….one little bit of detail that has come out is that Mueller ended his report after Barr was appointed since he knew that Barr was there to protect trump and he knew that no other prosecutions would be approved…and that was another reason why Mueller didn’t indict trump for obstruction of justice…with Barr now supervising, there would be no independence for the independent counsel, just Barr breaking his oath to protect the constitution and doing nothing but protecting trump. I am looking forward to Mueller coming in front of congress next month where he’ll get the chance to expose Barr’s interference in his work and make it clear once and for all that trump is a criminal who needs to go…impeach…oh, hey, I guess I did have a political one in me…yay…
Let’s let Gotti know he’s under investigation…
Well…you know, I think I’m losing my ability to be surprised at how little the rule of law means to the repubs these days…the supposed “law and order” party has been exposed as the lawbreaker party and there is more of it every damn day. One jaw dropper that the Mueller report exposed is that Richard Burr, the repub chair of the senate intelligence committee ran to the White House to give trump and his lawyers information that was in a private FBI briefing on the Russia probe about who was a target of the probe. Now, let that sink in a minute…a senior repub senator is briefed on confidential FBI investigation and then gives the targets a heads up so they can figure out how to obstruct the investigation…now, let’s try a little exercise here to really drive home how serious this is…all you have to do is replace trump’s lawyers and trump with mobster John Gotti’s lawyers and John Gotti and then see if it’s all perfectly fine that Burr tipped off the subject of an investigation. Doesn’t seem right, does it? Of course it isn’t….if this was anyone else but a powerful senator, they would be sitting in jail right now for obstruction of an FBI investigation….what happens now? Do the rest of the repubs in the senate censure him? Okay…I’m laughing at that one, too…of course they won’t…they’ll probably just pat him on the back and say “good job” for protecting their criminal in the WH…when the hell does this crap end? Impeach…
A little Monday surprise
Well…I think this one has kind of flown under the radar of the trump scandal tornado but it could really be an important day in getting the information that will prove just how big of a criminal trump is. Tomorrow, the accounting firm who does accounting for all of trump’s businesses will receive a subpoena from chairman Neal of the Ways and Means committee to produce all of the financial records of all of those businesses, along with all communications with trump and his criminal organization (including his children) and all underlying information that trump provided to the firm…and there is not a damn thing that trump can do to stop it…the firm even requested the subpoena in response to the letter sent by Neal just to protect themselves from liability….they can’t be sued by trump for following a legal order to turn over the information, and the adults in charge there are surely not going to die on this hill for trump since they know that he is a criminal who has tried to use this firm to break the law in the past by lying to them on financial statements he provided. So, it may be a pretty interesting meltdown day from trump tomorrow…or tonight as it always is when he is being exposed as the criminal that he is. Impeach….
The GOP is now a party of lawbreakers…
Well…hey, GOP…where the hell did your party of “law and order” go? You have been the ones harping for the past 40 years that the dems are “weak” on crime and I guess that meant that we don’t break the law enough? Over the past week, we have seen almost every damn officer in the trump administration either break the law or incite others to do it…if it isn’t Barr obstructing justice by “editing” the Mueller report, to Mnuchin directly breaking the clear law by not releasing idiot boy’s tax returns to congress, to trump blatantly ordering his CBP officers to break the law at the border and dangling a pardon to get them to do it, all of the repubs are nothing but criminals now who only mouthed their allegiance to the constitution all the while doing the bidding of the criminal in chief who squats in the WH. Now dems, it is time to use all of the power of government to bring these criminals to justice starting with Mnuchin who you can hold in contempt of Congress and actually have him arrested and held until he complies with the law…and then Nadler, you need to subpoena the Mueller report and file suit against Barr and trump to get a judge to order the complete report released to congress as is their right as part of their constitutional responsibilities of oversight of the executive branch…and then, Nadler, start the damn impeachment of this asshole…there are so many things he has done that meet the standard of “high crimes and misdemeanors” that this needs to be done…now…get after it…impeach…
Abuse of power?
Well…c’mon folks, does trump really have to shoot someone on 5th avenue to have the congress do anything about him? The latest from the criminal in chief is as clear of an abuse of power as has ever been seen…a couple of days ago, as the idiot boy was touring his fake border wall in the southwest of the country, he told the assembled CBP officers there to ignore the judge’s ruling that said closing the border to asylum seekers was against the law….and to tell them that the “country was full” and could not take any more immigrants. Now, I’m old enough to remember Nixon and Watergate and the fact that one of the articles of impeachment was the abuse of power by Nixon by telling people who worked for him to lie to the FBI and break the law…now, how is what the idiot trump done any different? He has ordered people who work for him to break the law and to ignore a judges order to follow the law…I am getting damn tired of no one doing anything about this criminal *president who is destroying the rule of law in this country…and now, I pointing my fingers at you dems…you have plenty of evidence to impeach this asshole and you should just frickin do it…I don’t think the country will survive until the 2020 election….impeach….
I guess locking kids in cages wasn’t enough for trump…
Well…I’m kind of happy to see Kirstjen Nielsen get fired from her post as head of DHS but, with trump, you just know that whomever he finds to replace her is going to be much worse. I guess locking kids in cages, lying every damn day about it, and letting over 3,000 Puerto Ricans (Americans) die just for trump’s racist hatred just wasn’t enough to keep her job. The damage that the family separation policy (yeah, she lied to congress about that, too) has done to both parents and children is not something that can ever be fixed and should be hung around Nielsen’s neck every damn day she is out in public, and every damn time she is out on the wingnut welfare circuit cashing in on being the monster she is….to see these children and see the reporting on the damage that ripping them away from their parents does to them is just heartbreaking and every damn American should be incensed that this racist bullshit is being done in our names…or in the name of Stephen Miller, the racist in chief who is the one behind the policies of hatred that has now infested this country. The only hope we have to stop this damage is in the next election since the rest of the repubs are just fine with all this bullshit…and we need to get a pledge from every damn dem running that this crap will be reversed first thing as soon as we take back the WH….impeach this son of a bitch now….
A bad day for trump…
Well…not sure if it was coordinated or not, but there was loads of bad news coming out of the House yesterday for the idiot trump and his minions. The house Ways and Means committee who deals with all tax issues, formally requested 6 years of idiot boy’s personal tax returns along with the returns of about a half dozen of his holding companies….the key here is the request went to the IRS under a law that was specifically written in the 1920′s to get the tax returns of Woodrow Wilson and others in his administration as the House was investigating corruption…sound familiar? The key thing here is that they don’t have to get trump’s permission to get them and the IRS is required to hand over any requested return to the chair of the committee….and trump is so ignorant of how this works that he spouted off yesterday with his tired old talking point that his returns are still under audit so he can’t release them…donnie, donnie, get it through your thick head, you don’t have anything to do with this process…you can’t stop it you moron. The second bit of bad news that trump got was that the Jerry Nadler, the chair of the House Judiciary Committee got a subpoena approved to send to Bill Barr for the entire, unredacted Mueller report and all of the underlying information…not the justice obstructing 4 page propaganda letter that Barr released…and Nadler is ready to go to court to get the report, but he is being nice about it and giving Barr the opportunity to do what’s right instead of obstructing justice…remember, Bill…John Mitchell went to prison for 19 months for doing just what you’re doing when he tried to protect Nixon…oh, and one last thing…investigators and prosecutors who worked on the Mueller report are calling bullshit on Barr and his summary’s conclusion that trump didn’t obstruct justice…saying that it is a total misrepresentation of what is actually in the report….so, trump had a very no good, terrible day yesterday…and that is going to continue until he’s gone and in prison….can’t wait for today’s meltdown….impeach…
Oranges and wind turbine cancer…
Well…cripes…as every day goes by, the idiot trump sinks deeper into dementia and abject craziness….just yesterday during a press conference with the head of the UN, idiot boy just had to go on and on about the Mueller report and it’s “origins”…the only problem is that trump didn’t say origins but oranges…and continued to say it until his addled brain moved on to something else as the world watched…with any other *president, that would have been enough to get him hustled off to Bethesa for mental tests to see just how addled his brain is…but that was not the worst of his day….during a fundraiser in front of other repubs, he went off on wind power again… but not his normal schtick that you won’t be able to watch your tv when the wind isn’t blowing, no, he came up with an entirely new reason why wind power isn’t good for the country…I guess now the sound from wind turbines causes cancer…yep, you heard that right..he really believes that sound causes cancer and that, if you can see a turbine from your house, your home value will plunge 75%….god, this guy is in control of our nukes? He finished up the day by repeatedly asserting that his father was born in Germany…something he has done for weeks now but guess what? He’s lying about that, too…his father was born here in the US and really shows his mental decline since the Russians installed him. What is it going to take, repubs? Is getting your radical right wing judges worth putting the entire world in danger? Okay…stupid question…it is to you….impeach….
Polls…
Well…no matter how many times the bleater in chief stands in front of his minions and declares “no collusion, no collusion”, the US people just aren’t buying it…even with Bill Barr trying his damnest to try to spin the results of the Mueller probe, more than 80% of the US don’t believe him and want to see the entire Mueller report, not some “summary” or redacted version, but the entire report including the underlying evidence. Barr has been trying to create a role for the AG out of thin air when every other SC report has been released in it’s entirety…and there is no role in the SC statute for the AG to summarize, edit, or otherwise limit the information that the Intelligence committee can see so it will be interesting on Tuesday when the IC has a deadline for Barr to produce the report or they will start issuing subpoenas compelling Barr to give the entire, unredacted report to congress. Oh, back to the polls…I’ll bet the latest polls are driving the idiot in chief crazy when they say that his approval rating is back under 40%…and here’s the kicker…fully 64% of the US believes that trump committed crimes before he was installed by the Russians…and well over 50% think he’s committed crimes since he was installed. So, no…no “total exoneration” no matter how many times he shouts that to his troglodyte crowds…one other poll that I can’t find but I think it was really bad news for idiot boy here in Michigan…his approval here is only in the mid 30′s and almost 60% say they won’t vote for him if he’s not in jail before 2020…poor baby..impeach…
