A document detailing what Democrats intend to do to try to take out President Donald Trump should they take the House majority in November 2018 has emerged.Congressional Republicans are getting ready for hell. Axios has obtained a spreadsheet thats circulated through Republican circles on and off Capitol Hill including at least one leadership office that meticulously previews the investigations Democrats will likely launch if they flip the House, Swan writes.
Swan then lists some of the more than 100 items contained in the lengthy GOP document. Here is a direct quote of the bullet point list from Swans piece in Axios:
President Trumps tax returns; Trump family businesses and whether they comply with the Constitutions emoluments clause, including the Chinese trademark grant to the Trump Organization; Trumps dealings with Russia, including the presidents preparation for his meeting with Vladimir Putin; The payment to Stephanie Clifford a.k.a. Stormy Daniels; James Comeys firing; Trumps firing of U.S. attorneys' Trumps proposed transgender ban for the military; Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchins business dealings; White House staffs personal email use; Cabinet secretary travel, office expenses, and other misused perks; Discussion of classified information at Mar-a-Lago; Jared Kushners ethics law compliance; Dismissal of members of the EPA board of scientific counselors; The travel ban; Family separation policy; Hurricane response in Puerto Rico; Election security and hacking attempts; White House security clearances.

Wouldn’t it be nice if the Democrats spent just a little time and money (our money BTW) doing something else besides battling President Trump? I don’t know, like maybe actually representing the people and all those things they are supposed to be doing. We didn’t elect them to waste time and our money on their personal vendettas. Get back to work rats!
The GOP is control now, yet it does not give the Democrats hell. They just sit there and play by Queensbury rules.
We can stop the wave if every last one of us gets off his or her butt and goes to the polls in a couple of months. Yes, I know the ‘Pubs are disappointments. They always are. Some of them hate Trump. We know that. But look at this document. The ‘Rats are going to kill us if they get power. Our votes are all we have to prevent it.
They are full of anger and rage. They HATE. They will unleash their savage fury on Trump if allowed. Vote, even if you have to drag yourself to the polling place on hands and knees and bloody stumps.
LOL!
LOL!
No doubt the Republicans could produce such a document for their Democrat brethren. But, given the last eight or so years, the Repubs list would be longer and more truthful.
Bump. Hope they are distance swimmers :)
I would think taxpayers have an idea that the tax money that goes for Congressional salaries is supposed to be used to instill effective Management in both the house and the Senate. Any business who fights amongst themselves as much as Congress does would be broke and bankrupt. Why do the taxpayers insist or rather, allow Congress to be completely ineffective over sour grapes? Even when the BHO administration had complete control of Congress, nothing really was done, and Pelosi still hasn’t read the Affordable Healthcare Act, which tends to make me think that Congressional Representatives don’t care about their responsibilities in regards to efficient and Effective Government. They simply don’t care. These tactics have got to stop... But have they ever? Or will they ever?
Make damned sure you vote in November.
We’re not out to stem the tide, we intend to electorally humiliate the lefties who think they run this country.
Should they get power, an “impeachable offense” is whatever they say it is. The law and the Constitution don’t matter. President Trump could pick up a wine glass at a state dinner (he doesn’t drink), and that’s all they need. He could put on his pants before his shirt in the morning -impeachable offense. It’s all BS, but it’s a big deal to the rats across the aisle.
I frankly believe the Republican party will pick up seats in November if the never trumpers in the McCain wing of the RNC don’t screw the pooch. Handing an election to the rats should never be an option, but these buttheads in our party have a habit of doing just that.
Get out and VOTE!
From the link....
The spreadsheet which I’m told originated in a senior House Republican office catalogs more than 100 formal requests from House Democrats this Congress, spanning nearly every committee.
* The spreadsheet includes requests for administration officials to be grilled by committee staff, requests for hearings to obtain sworn testimony, efforts to seize communications about controversial policies and personnel decisions, and subpoena threats.
* These demands would turn the Trump White House into a 24/7 legal defense operation.
The bottom line: Thanks to their control of Congress, Republicans have blocked most of the Democrats investigative requests. But if the House flips, the GOP loses its power to stymie. Lawyers close to the White House tell me the Trump administration is nowhere near prepared for the investigatory onslaught that awaits them, and they consider it among the greatest threats to his presidency.

The headline makes it sound like it’s a Dem generated spreadsheet, but - if I’m reading correctly, it is a Republican generated spreadsheet issued as a warning/fight back plan?
Regardless, you are correct...Let’s make sure there’s no blue wave!!!!!
Mueller? Enough already! How much money has been spent already on this farce investigation? I want my money back! Tax money used for this farce/investigation are misappropriated funds! I want my refund! How much has been spent? How much is each U.S. citizen owed?
Prolly.
Yep.
Please.
Would prefer that Dems become a nonexistent party.
That’s the plan.
Brennan already spilled the beans on this plan.
