Russiagate Was Treason; Will Trump Prove That No One Is Above the Law?

The nation’s future hinges on restoring justice — or surrendering to the swamp.

The esteemed Thomas Sowell, easily the most important economist of the last 50 years, turned 95 a couple of weeks ago. He has an extraordinary ability to take complex ideas about economics and culture and distill them down in prose that speaks to everyone from PhDs to those with a GED.

His ability and willingness to address issues from race to economics to history in compellingly readable books are unmatched. Indeed, his Cultures trilogy is one of the most robust weapons one might equip themselves with in any battle against the nonsensical wokeness that plagues America in the early 21st century.

As one would expect from a career spanning over six decades, Dr. Sowell has more than a few quotes that are perfect for our time. My favorite is easily:

“Racism is not dead, but it is on life support — kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as racists.”

Another is:

“One of the sad signs of our times is that we have demonized those who produce, subsidized those who refuse to produce, and canonized those who complain.”

As accurate as those quotes are, the following is perhaps the most insightful I’ve ever read:

“One of the common failings among honorable people is a failure to appreciate how thoroughly dishonorable some other people can be, and how dangerous it is to trust them.”

it’s to treason. And it’s not likely anyone will be charged, tried, or convicted. And Obama would likely have immunity from his position as President.

Expose it. And move on

You remind me of the band on the Titanic.

Everything you said is lefty wishful thinking and narrative.

How many post reward doughnuts did the narrative control cubicle pay you for that post ?

Or are you just a volunteer ?

Considering that the CCP Declared unrestricted warfare upon America to its citizens, and that the DNC, through gates azure tech support, and fake drivers licenses used to generate fraudulent votes, it was aiding , abetting and giving comfort to a declared enemy combatant

I’d say,
Yup, treason .

Are you a rainbow Christian ?

Latent TDS suffering surrender monkeys weren’t pissed about ‘they spied on my campaign ‘, two hoax impeachments, Wuhan Coup Flu enabled stolen election, weaponized lawfare, raid or anything that’s happened to Trump by this govt from the day he came down the escalator.

Traitors among us has been a theme since 2016..

Why are they still breathing is a question 1776 Americans would be asking..

[nathanbedford]

The potential prosecutions are not entirely hopeless and that is why the case should not be grounded on a lie. The conspiracy claimed in no legal sense is treason but it is possibly sedition.

It is a slim hope, but a hope nevertheless that a prosecution for sedition can prevail if enough of the media can be turned so that a jury in a blue city might actually convict. If we open ourselves to the charge by the media that this is a witch hunt, that we are overcharging, we lose the whole public right from the beginning.

Meanwhile, if the case can be continued because it is not dismissed on motion for alleging treason which does not exist, a vigorous prosecution for sedition might just flip one of the less visible players to provide evidence against the real villains. This is not impossible; it happened in Watergate.

Let's not build case on a lie that is doomed to fail legally and politically. There are obstacles enough between truth and justice, but obstacles that could conceivably be overcome.

Well, I would expect nothing less from you.

Blind loyalty. Blind fealty.

You guys think you like “politics.” You watch it like it’s a baseball game. You pick your team and stick with them—even when they suck you ignore the reality.

The GOP sucks. We are just lucky the dem’s suck even more.

So, put on your red hat, salute the flag, and walk down the road to failure with this course of action. It’s a loser.

But you will feel good barking at the moon.

[Ancesthntr]

Correct - except about no one being charged, tried and convicted. Obama won’t be, but no one else enjoys the protections that he does. There is plenty of evidence out there to convict them, and there NEEDS to be some actual accountability and punishment in order to deter such actions in the future.

declared enemy combatant

As was said allegorically about the myth of the Holy Roman Empire, China was neither declared, an enemy nor a combatant.

Nope, sedition

(if we can prove it).

[Political Junkie Too]

Obama would likely have immunity from his position as President.

Presidential immunity would not apply because falsifying intelligence documents is not an official act.

Dude.

Xi made a televised appearance in Chinese TV and openly stated to its citizens , and ordered the PLA to commence, unrestricted warfare.

Try and keep up and informed mmmkay ?

You guys sure seem hot on preventing traitors from answering for their treason crimes.

Why ?

[JesusIsLord]

Are you a rainbow Christian ?

You have no cause to ask such a loaded question except to irritate someone who points out the legal definition of treason, which I assume you disagree with.. Next, you'll be asking how frequent I beat my wife.

Grow up!

[nathanbedford]

You guys sure seem hot on preventing traitors from answering for their treason crimes.

You seem even more demagogic when vainglorious.

[Vermont Lt]

Well, the statute of limitations would apply at that point.

Obama is not going to be charged. It’s simply not going to happen. You guys need to get that out of your head and move on to stuff that CAN happen.

I am sure there are ways to ruin these people without the “we are going to arrest you” stuff. That just supports the “They are the gestapo” line the left uses. (And they know very little about the gestapo, admittedly.)

It’s fun to fantasize about this stuff. It’s not going to happen.

[Political Junkie Too]

"You guys?"

You're lumping me in with whom, and on what basis?

The Swamp will win eventually. All they have to is outlast Trump.

[Jim Noble]

Will Trump Prove That No One Is Above the Law?

Not if he doesn't shut up about having his subordinates indict, arrest, or imprison people, he won't.

[MtnClimber]

Not if he doesn't shut up about having his subordinates indict, arrest, or imprison people, he won't.

I agree. He is giving the MSM lots of video to frame the narrative that he is just out for political vengeance.

Everything your Govt did to Trump since Trump came down the escalator has consequences.
