The issue has been useful to show us just how far we’ve gotten from the rule of law. Sort of like how the Holocaust is useful to us at this point: it shows us that the unthinkable is possible, so we can try to close the vulnerabilities and see it never happen again.

Obama himself is irrelevant. It took a lot of crooked law-breaking to get him where he is now, where he has done crooked law-breaking ever since.

We can’t put Congress-critters like Pelosi in jail for trampling the Constitution since there’s no criminal statute about that. But we can put them in jail for committing perjury - which is one of the things Pelosi did to trample the Constitution. This issue, in the end, provides the bridge between the theoretical Constitution and the jail cell, which is the only form of accountability language these people comprehend or speak.

It’s an incredibly useful issue, as Pelosi et al are about to learn. Lord willing.

What hold over the SCOTUS do you refer to?

BTW your comments are among the very best on FR about this. The Very, Very best because you tie things together and show clearly how it is the rule of law that is falling, and it is not just one man who is the enemy, as though 0bastard is gotten rid of not re-elected, or resigns, or even is removed, and All is Well with the World.

It is much deeper than that.

Thank you for your work. I wish I could help you but I’m pathetically disorganized and practically feeble minded.
