Karma, Nemesis, payback . . . and all that stuff.
The Left has gone mad over Donald J. Trump—past, present, and future.
The current Democratic Party and NeverTrump “conservatives” assumed that Trump was and remains so obviously toxic that they do not have to define exactly what his evil entails.
Accordingly, they believe that any means necessary are justified to stop him. And furthermore, these zealots, when out of power, insist such extraordinary measures should not be emulated and institutionalized by their opponents, much less ever boomeranged back upon their creators.
In this context, the Republicans retaking control of the House of Representatives once again raises the question whether they should reply in kind.
Given the current investigation following the Mar-a-Lago raid, should there also be a mirror-image special prosecutor to examine President Biden’s lost stash of classified documents in his insecure office following his vice presidency?
Can House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) ever be considered too inflammatory, given that his predecessor, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) tore up the president’s State of the Union address on national television?
How many Democratic House members should be denied committee assignments to remind the Congress that Pelosi’s rejection of Republican nominees was a terrible precedent?
How many congressional subpoenas with threats of criminal prosecution and performance-art arrests should be issued to Democratic politicos to stop the criminalization of political differences?
In our current age, will all former president’s private homes, closets, and drawers now be subject to FBI raids to ensure that “classified” documents were not wrongly stored there?
Are Joe Biden’s current homes also a logical target, given his sloppy handling of classified foreign policy papers—eerily reminiscent of an abandoned laptop belonging to son Hunter Biden and daughter Ashley Biden’s lost diary?

Xao Bi-Dung should have a couple of impeachments coming his way. The border, influence peddling and handling of classified documents would be a good start.

Example: The Reid Rule that was used by a Rep controlled Senate to fundamentally change the dynamic of the SCOTUS. This AFTER the Dim controlled Senate introduced the Reid Rule to appoint lower court appointees.
The Dims never learn, what's good for the goose, is good for the gander.
When will medical science perfect testicular and spinal transplants for Republican senators and representatives so that they begin to act like patriotic Americans and work to bring the traitorous Demonicrats to justice?
One of his best articles.
A perfect example is Karl Rove, who espouses his idiotic ‘white board’ to essentially say that everything that Trump did with the classified docs was illegal, and everything that Biden did was Okie Dokie. The reasoning, Trump fought and Biden didn’t. But Biden didn’t have to, and if Trump didn’t fight, they would roll over him in a heartbeat. Rove needs to shove that white board up his patootie and twist it.
Does a phone call now an impeachment make, on the grounds that Trump mixed domestic politics with foreign policy?
But was Trump’s Ukrainian call that much different from Barack Obama’s 2012 quid pro quo in Seoul, South Korea, where he asked the Russian president to convey a deal to Vladmir Putin: stay calm and give Obama space during his reelection bid while Obama in turn would be flexible on missile defense.
Putin did just that and put off invading Ukraine until Obama was reelected. And Obama made sure there was no joint missile defense projects in Eastern Europe. Was that deal in America’s interest, or Obama’s own and thus similarly impeachable?
Somehow supposedly worldly and sophisticated partisans in their self-righteousness ignored ancient laws of what goes around comes around, of Karma, of Nemesis, of payback’s a bit—h, and all that stuff.

First of all, the republican'ts would never try to impeach Biden. Secondly, even if they did, the media/leftists would immediately declare the impeachment to be a politically motivated dirty trick, without merit or substance. And finally, NOTHING will get that ice-cream licking, hair-sniffing reprobate to honor his oath of office. He has no honor, nor any idea what honor even means.
Trump, like Reagan, represents an existential threat to all things Socialism. The lefties are willing to take things somewhat slow as long as the country keeps falling towards Communism, but when someone comes along that can actually reverse the direction of politics, they go bonkers. Actually, they don’t go bonkers, their masters do. The politicians and the demonstrators are merely the army of flying monkeys.
Biden impeachments: The beauty of this is we have all these dems on tape telling us these crimes are heinous and punishable by impeachment and imprisonment.
Example: ‘Chuck Schumer said that keeping classified documents in an unauthorized place must be answered with imprisonment.’ Do you, senator, agree with Sen. Schumer that Biden should be in prison?
The Democrats do not believe in ethics or morality. They believe in power. The insanity they did was a bid to obtain total power over the country, in perpetuity.
It failed. Not by much. They almost pulled it off.
They still have enormous power in the Executive branch, the intelligence apparatus, the media, the Senate, and in many courts.
They may be discredited. They may lose power. The Republic may be restored.
It is all up for grabs.
We have to keep on fighting
“Xao Bi-Dung should have a couple of impeachments coming his way. The border, influence peddling and handling of classified documents would be a good start.”
He had classified documents on Burisma and Ukraine from 2013 to 2016 according to reports. Burisma had cool system of payoffs to multiple political families, via kids here in the US, including Biden, Pelosi, Romney. When did Biden threaten to withhold US aid until the Prosecutor who was investigating Burisma was fired?
Those DOCUMENTS illegally in the possession of Joe Biden, are a smoking gun of information provided to his son to keep Burisma out of trouble, for kick back money. I wonder if Joe Biden listed the ‘gifts’ of his son paying for all his bills on his taxes........
For the amount of Money we the people have to pay to FEDGOV, you would think that we could at least have them investigate Treason and Tax Evasion.
The Hard-20 who held out against McCarthy were slammed with every threat possible by so-called fellow Republicans.
But they stood firm, unyielding, until McCarthy and his circle caved.
Republicans had never seen defiance like that before.
But here’s the kicker: Republicans who had adapted to go-along-get-along pathos, suddenly had their eyes opened to the awareness that other ways can work.
Now let’s see if this new spirit inside the GOP takes hold.
Here’s a news nugget that appears as nothing but is actually a mega-ton blast:
Yesterday, Bernie Marcus endorsed Harmeet Dillon for RNC chair.
Look it up and absorb. This is huge.
Harmeet is awesome, but if I could get a 90-second elevator pitch with her, I’d urge her to bring in Mike Lindell as Co-Chair.
And if that happened, I’d seriously consider changing my Independent registration to Republican.
Smartest man in our country.....thanks!
Well said!
Rats want power first and foremost. The right ideology without power is just noise. Conservatives have yet to learn that, hence gaining power is much harder. Purity first means you sit at home, talk to yourself, and fade into irrelevancy.
People with no grounding desperately searching for something (in lieu of meaning) to make them feel they are important.
The leftist’s political hysteria is understandable if one looks at one of the fundamental tenets of of their world view. To the left those who do not abide by their political view are bitter clingers, deplorables, ultra MAGA and in many ways sub human. The masses are too stupid to make even fundamental decisions in their own lives and must be controlled by the enlightened liberal elites. That the masses would gain power is an existential threat to the liberal elites. With Trump’s election the masses seized power and threatened to overthrow the elites. Hence getting rid of Trump and his ilk became a hysterical obsession.
There are two holy grails of the political establishment -- illegal immigration and neocon/liberal world order foreign policy.
Big money especially flows through the latter. Businesses depend on cheap labor for the former.
Trump threatened to end both. That's why he was and is being targeted.
Starting when? Actually, most of the real toxic politics began when Bill Clinton was impeached. Pelosi and company have been in payback mode ever since and DJT was their pay gold. In addition, if those who did not listen to Rush Limbaugh here was his take. He suggested that when a Republican gets an opportunity, ask them the ONE THING that makes and keeps them voting DEMOCRAT and they will ALWAYS answer, “abortion, a woman has the right to choose”. I tried it many times and the answer was ALWAYS “abortion”.
