Democrats Promised an Insurrection But All They Got Was a Lousy Obstruction Case
American Greatness ^ | 16 Dec, 2021 | Julie Kelly

Liz Cheney just set the stage for the latest letdown. Donald Trump won’t be charged with insurrection, treason, or sedition. But obstruction may be on the table.

History, it appears, is repeating itself—at least when it comes to the latest crusade to destroy Donald Trump and everyone around him.

For nearly three years, the American people were warned that Donald Trump had been in cahoots with the Kremlin to rig the 2016 presidential election. Trump-Russia election collusion, the original “stop the steal” campaign—that is, until questioning the outcome of American elections was designated a criminal conspiracy after November 2020—dominated the attention of the ruling class and the entirety of the national news media.

Every instrument of power—the FBI, a secret surveillance court, congressional committees, a special counsel—was leveraged to uncover the “truth” about the Trump campaign’s alleged dirty dealings with Mother Russia.

Hyperbolic accusations about the president, his family, and close associates were similar to accusations now levied against those associated with the so-called “insurrection” said to have been incited by Trump: Russia collusion, like the four-hour disturbance at the Capitol on January 6, rendered Trump a traitor, a threat to democracy, a wannabe dictator, a psychotic cult leader, and a menace to global security—to name just a handful of the more outlandish claims.

Democrats sang Christmas carols and lit candles in honor of Special Counsel Robert Mueller; it only was a matter of time before Mueller’s posse of partisan attorneys dragged Trump out of the Oval Office in handcuffs and arrested him for conspiring with Vladimir Putin to defeat Hillary Clinton, they believed.

How about the participants in the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax compensate for the wasted tax payer dollars and do hard time for the overthrow attempt?

This is incredibly dangerous to our republic and the rule of law when you have a political party hellbent on charging partisan crimes based on falsehoods and then they end up calling for obstruction when the case falls apart.

We went through this twice with impeachment efforts (Mueller investigation of Russian collusion delusion) and then the Ukraine investigation.

Here we are again..... round 3 of the same ridiculous partisan lawfare. Disgusting.

She should be kicked out of the GOP caucus. Period. This is crap. You start an investigation based on a lie. You then convene a special committee in violation of house rules that is anything but bi-partisan. You then issue subpoenas from the same illegitimate (read the house rules yourself) committee for things far beyond the scope of the investigation. You hold people in contempt for claiming executive privilege and arrest them (Bannon). Then, when you do not find anything to substantiate your illegitimate investigation you claim obstruction.

This is banana republic crap that our state department excoriates other countries for. Our country deserves better than this!

SHOCK Democrats actually BELIEVE in something

Dems sang triumphant hymns, got down on their knees and lit consecrated candles in honor of Special Counsel, the sainted Robert Mueller.

They fervently believed in all that is holy that it was only a matter of time before Saint Mueller’s posse of partisan attorneys would drag Trump out of the Oval Office in handcuffs and arrest him for conspiring with Vladimir Putin to defeat the Blessed Hillary Clinton.

Maybe they’ll indict him for not having a sharp crease in his pants.

Encouraging people to peacefully demonstrate is obstruction? According to our “betters” it’s okay to burn down and loot cities accross the country and not be arrested/prosecuted even if they burn federal buildings with police inside but don’t you dare ruffle the feathers of the elites in Congress! The disparity of equal justice is patently obvious. And they make no secret about making the 1/6 people into examples with the aid of the D.C. judiciary.
