Office of Special Counsel Opens Investigation on Acting AG Whitaker Over Hatch Act Violation

I agree. Trump must follow President Lincoln’s lead and declare a state of emergency. Shut them all down. If this means CWII, then so be it.

[ZULU]

Totally agree with you.

[Political Junkie Too]

This seems like a pre-emptive strike against Whitaker to inoculate Mueller.

The Democrats are using these charges to set up a claim of obstruction of justice in case Whitaker moves to end the Mueller investigation, since there is now an "ongoing investigation."

Softengine:
No, Ransomnote. It is not an attack on POTUS.

Ransomnote:
Yes, Softengine, it is an attack on POTUS. You said, “That Trump is doing nothing to stand up to this, tells me a whole lot about how 2020 is going to go.” This is a vote of no confidence implying that 2020 will go poorly because Trump can’t or won’t do anything.

Softengine:
I am just very worried that the swamp cleaning that needs to take place is not.

Ransomnote:
Just because the MSM conceals or downplays President Trump’s massive impact on national and global politics doesn’t mean conservatives have to. He’s gutted the FBI and has been nominating wave upon wave of Federal judges to replace the ones Obama bought. That screaming you hear in D.C. is from swamp creatures panicking.

Softengine: But the key to 2020 won’t be Kim and NK, as awesome a feat as it is.

Ransomnote: I wasn’t providing NK as a key to 2020. I was providing it as one example of the radical change POTUS has brought about and that the MSM, and some on FR are ignoring.

Softengine:
The key to 2020 is for the public to see swamp cleanup activities put on full display.

Ransomnote:
The swamp is being drained but the MSM and some in conservative circles are repeating the litany, “Nothing is happening” and saying nothing will change by 2020 despite all the (radical) good POTUS is doing. The reason the knives are out for Whitaker is because the swamp is fighting back. We, as conservatives, need to acknowledge his MANY successes, display faith in our POTUS, and support for his vision.

I agree with both of you. The left are in an all out do or die warn against America. Trump needs to declare a national emergency and go to town on these domestic enemies.

I hope you are right. I’m skeptical... Especially with no FISA declass yet.

Being someone who has learned the lesson of failing to strike while the iron was hot, more times that I care to admit, I hope holding back does not prove to me a mistake.

If I believe that the 2020 elections are not going to be fair, I’m going to start organizing (e.g., public response to congress critters that they have to state what the problems with the elections are and how they will work to fix it BEFORE we vote for them). We’re two years out - we can make public officials miserable every day if we need to.
What I won’t do is believe we’re doomed and post content that makes it seem like our vote won’t make any difference. Right now, I want to see what comes of election investigations before I decide how to respond.
