Now we’ll see how corrupt the Justice Department has become…

Well…with the blatant, open corruption that is being led by William Barr at the Justice Department on a daily basis, we now are going to have the chance to see just how corrupt it has become…just this morning, Adam Schiff, the chair of the House Intelligence committee, said he plans to make a criminal referral to the DOJ about Erik Prince’s testimony to the committee since the evidence shows that Prince lied to the committee about his meeting with the Russians in the Seychelle Islands…saying that the meeting with a Russian banker was just a “chance encounter” but Mueller evidence shows that there was preparation for the meeting with a set agenda that dealt with “improving” US and Russian relations. So, just another idiot in the trump orbit trying to work with the Russians and then lying about it to congress but with the new twist that trump now has his personal “fixer” in Barr who will find many, many bogus reasons to not bring these clear charges of perjury…and by this action, the Justice department loses a little more credibility that the dems will have to step in and fix when trump and his minions are gone…impeach…

Erik Prince is going down…

Well…the wheels of justice are turning a little too slowly for me when it comes to Erik Prince since he has been involved with shady stuff since the Blackwater days…but, in just the past few days, it appears that the wheels have shifted into at least 2nd gear when it was revealed that hie lied to congress about meeting with Russians…and guess where that meeting took place? Yep, trump tower and during the campaign…and there were others there, George Nader, little donnie, and the head of an Israeli company that specialized in social media manipulation…hmmm…does that sound familiar? Prince also lied about the reason for the meeting, saying it was about “Iran policy” and not the continuing conspiracy with foreign companies to sway the election and told the congress he didn’t have any contact with the campaign other than about some “yard signs” for trump…and you remember what Michael Cohen is going to jail for…lying to congress…so, finally, it looks like another gator is going to be removed from the swamp….and not a minute too soon…impeach…

Erik Prince is going down….

Well…just when I thought that the news was going to overwhelm me with all of the crap coming out of the WH, a little bit of good news made me smile this morning. Reporting from a lot of news outlets today have put together the case that Erik Prince lied to congress and the FBI about his supposed “chance meeting” with the Russians in the Seychelles. Now, if you remember, one of the charges that got both Popadopoulos and Gates in this investigation was lying to the FBI and both of them are going to jail for it…so guess where this leaves ole Prince? Yep, indictments are coming for him and they need to make sure he doesn’t run to Dubai like he did when his company, Blackwater, was on trial for murdering scores of people in Iraq. The meeting that he lied about was not the “chance meeting” he said it was but was planned weeks in advance and Prince knew about it as the planning was going on…and there is new evidence coming from a person that was at the meeting that the purpose of the meeting was for Putin to get his hooks further into the idiot trump and his amateurs that were trying to conduct foreign policy in secret. Now, I m sitting here with a smile on my face that Betsy DeVos’s brother is going to jail…and that these people of privilege who have been able to cheat their entire lives and live on inherited wealth and a feeling of superiority to the rest of us are finally being shown that they are not above the law….it is another step in getting directly to the idiot trump…impeach…

Now Erik Prince is involved….

Well….I wonder why I’m surprised that the evil Erik Prince was revealed to have met with the Russians, (is Russia the only country in the world?) as an “unofficial”representative of the idiot trump…supposedly to create some kind of “backchannel” for the trumpistas to talk to Russia without anyone knowing about it….you remember ole Erik don’t you? The founder of the blackwater mercenary killing machine that was so popular with the bush administration? Whose chickenshit soldiers killed over 20 civilians in Iraq when they mistook women and children for hardened terrorists? And who fled the country and renounced his citizenship to avoid being prosecuted for the crimes that blackwater committed? Yep, that Erik Prince…the non-citizen now part of the trump administration…I guess non-citizens are okay if they are white and rich…..isn’t it a wonder that members of trump’s team keep showing up with criminals that are under investigation across the world? And still, nothing from the House intelligence committee….where the hell are you Chaffetz…Nunes….Bueller?  Impeach….

Okay….that was a little harsh..

Yeah….I know and I agree..that little screed about Erik Prince was getting near the top if it was not over it…but this guy made millions by his connections that aren’t available to the regular folks and it irritates the heck out of me when these guys want tax cuts for the wealthy but they don’t have any problems using our tax money for their private schemes. Don’t get me wrong, I like some rich people…I’ve even wanted to be one and tried as hard as I could to achieve richness but it wasn’t to be. But, even with that said, I am still going to call them as I see them and continue to call out people that think their opinions are worth more than yours or mine just because they are wealthy. That’s not what this country was built on but it appears the direction it is going, and that troubles me as it should you….maybe more later…

Good riddance, Erik Prince..

Well…read this little nugget when I was out at the coffee shop this morning…that Erik Prince, the dark lord of Blackwater, is moving himself and his company to Abu Dhabi, his reasons being the pesky investigations into the gun-running, murder, and other acts of malfeasence that his company has been known for since its inception. Waa, Waa,waa…geez, aren’t you tired of these privileged repubs whining and crying when they are forced to follow the same rules as the rest of us? It’s endemic to these folks that they see themselves as different than the rest of us, and by extension, that the rules don’t apply. Ole GW and Cheney are the poster boys for this type of behavior but they are rivaled by Vitter and the rest of the repub elite. So, I say to Erik Prince (and I wish I could say it to the rest of the repubs) good riddance; watch what happens when you break the law there…you’re going to find yourself in the slammer without the protection of your repub buddies.

Just another example of the rich being “born on third base” and thinking they hit a triple…geez…
