The Democrats' bleak midwinter as their coup attempt is unraveling
American Thinker ^ | Patricia McCarthy

Posted on 12/27/2019 3:00:57 AM PST by RoosterRedux

The deep state and the Democrat party have, from the moment Donald Trump announced his candidacy, set out to destroy the man, his candidacy, and then his presidency. They did this, as the Horowitz report has shown and the Barr/Durham report will expand upon, by attempting to frame Trump with a despicable, treasonous plot that would, they were certain, invalidate his campaign and subsequently his presidency.

When Trump won, their plot became both plan B and a cover-up of their pre-election illegal, unconstitutional activities. Talk about abuse of power!

This bunch, from Brennan, Comey and Clapper and all those who were the mid-level functionaries at work on the original plan, all of them were betrayers of the nation they were charged to represent. Then they effectively co-opted our willingly slavish, anti-American media to undergird their plan in the knowledge that they can easily manipulate the pubic to believe whatever nonsense they promote.

*snip*

They are like angry toddlers whose parents have rewarded every demand without rancor, just craven indulgence. They are used to getting their way and cannot abide their loss of the Left's presidential power over us all. Thus, we are afflicted with Pelosi's ridiculous, bungled management of their long-planned impeachment scheme.

“Impeachment” in the US Constitution is designed to rid the country of a criminal. NOT intended to be an exercise of pure power.

In fact political decision-making in the USA directed specifically toward the accruing of power and the exercise of power to the ends of an individual or party rather than to the ends of the Constitution is SEDITIOUS/SEDITION

Who is to blame when the criminal is allowed to escape prosecution by the dirty cop? the criminal? The corrupt official? Or the people who just use the remote to change the channel?

You say that like you think the Democrats give a damn about the Constitution (or the Country for that matter).

Mid level, my a$$! This was spawned and perpetrated by the White House, DNC, and all who occupy both.
Arrest Obama, Clinton, Kerry, Jarrett, Biden, & Roberts, and let them try to explain their way out of it.

A PLAUSIBLE IMPEACHMENT THEORY?——YOU DECIDE
FREE REPUBLIC.COM ^ | 12/26/19
Posted on 12/26/2019, 8:34:56 PM by Liz

BACKSTORY At 12:15pm on Trump’s Inauguration Day, Obama stooge Susan Rice wrote a memo....(wait for it).... “to-herself.”

This was a “justification memo”........ directly related to impeachment......in case they failed at removing Trump.

Outgoing National Security Advisor Susan Rice needed to explain why there have been multiple false and misleading statements given to the incoming President Trump and all of his officials.

This is not a “CYA” memo, this is a justification memo for use AFTER the Trump-Russia collusion/conspiracy narrative collapsed; if the impeachment effort failed.

Her “By-The-Book” reference -refers to both she and then-President Obama being told by CIA Director John Brennan, FBI Director Comey, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, that President Trump was the subject of an active counterintelligence investigation to determine if he was under the influence of the Russian government.

But they NEVER told candidate Trump about it.

Obama’s FBI, DOJ, ODNI, CIA and intelligence officials flipped a finger at protocol....and even worse ....they were intentionally dishonest with incoming President Trump and key members of his new administration.

Obviously their lack of honesty was a serious issue.......but flipping off established protocol had serious ramifications.

Even the timing of Rice’s Oz-ish memo, written 15 minutes prior to the end of the Obama administration, is ex-post-facto useful as evidence of the author’s intent.......as Suzan stupidly confesses to a host of crimes.

Rice skipped down the Yellowbrick Road, along with the mental midgets of the Obama Administraton.

They are above the law and they know it.

When the political consequences of applying the law outweigh the legal value of it, the law is not applied.

We have known the specifics of their treason and the plot to frame the President for YEARS now. Years. We didn't need that shmendrik Horowitz and his "report" (that the DOJ and FBI passed around for months, lining out what they didn't want published). Horowitz basically said that the FBI lied, perjured, and committed entrapment, but he could find "no specific document evidence to conclude political motives or bias."

So now we are breathlessly awaiting Durham.

Our faint hope for justice has been raised again and again, only to have it smashed down. Letseeee here:

Trust Sessions

Trust Wray

Trust Huber

Trust Horowitz

Trust Durham and Barr

After all the buildup, combined with Barr and Durham issuing their "statements" the day of the Horowitz report, I do expect "something." Perhaps indictments of Comey, McCabe, Strzok, and maybe even Brennan.

But not Hillary. Never Obama. Never Pelosi.

And especially not Soros, the Rothchilds, and the Deep-Deep state players.

I pray I am wrong.

All it will take is the threat of serious prison time to get someone talking, and that’s what will finally bring down the house of cards. I’m hoping Mr. Durham and Mr. Barr are gathering substantial evidence that will cause that to happen.

1) Any Day Now.
2) 4 to 6 weeks.
3) Four to Six Months.
4) Never.

Never is running three lengths ahead and coming into the clubhouse turn.

I’d like to see Trump refunded the money he personally spent on the 2016 election from the corrupt Democrats and Rhinos.

American Thinker is wrong about this. Several realities make its predictions of demise of the democrat coup attempt unfounded.

1. Everyone is assuming that Barr and Durham will actually do the right thing. We shall see.
2. No high level registered Democrat in 10 years has been held accountable for breaking the law.
3. You can drain a swamp...... but just how do you go about draining all the oceans. The US government has become an ocean, and appears utterly corrupt.
4. The public gets its ‘news’ from about six outlets that are more than happy to lie to them so democrats don’t have to answer.
5. Government and deluded democrats are just steps away from destroying the Constitution and the Republic, and by George SOROS they aren’t going to stop now.
6. The average citizen has become so Constitution illiterate they don’t understand the 4th amendment, separation of powers, or attorney client privilege. Have the even read it?
7. The average citizen still believes Russia is our biggest military threat, and that Trump dossier is real.
8. The average American doesn’t understand real war, and they are willing to try to strip their countrymen of their rights without the slightest understanding of what comes next.

My high school had a class that was mandatory for Seniors and you wouldn’t graduate until you passed it. One of the things you had to do to pass was recite the entire US Constitution by memory. You could break it down into small chunks and you had the entire year but nobody got a diploma until they had recited the entire US Constitution in front of that teacher. No one.

It makes me sick to think that not only that these things have happened, but also that as things have been unfolding, the criminals will never be brought to justice.
