Mr. Trump Goes to Washington
American Thinker ^ | Oct 6, 2019 | Clarice Feldman

Posted on 10/06/2019 3:06:09 AM PDT by upchuck

...

This week in a closed hearing Schiff called U.S. diplomat Kurt Volker, the recently resigned special envoy to Ukraine. Prior to the hearing media stenographers of hot Democrat tips bruited that Volker was going to be the final nail in Trump’s coffin. Schiff has refused to release the transcript of that hearing in which, to Schiff’s certain embarrassment, Volker confirmed what present Ukrainian officials had already said. “The Ukrainians were not pressured, they never raised any issue of quid pro quo, they did not view the President’s call to Zelensky to be inappropriate in any way.”

The Schiff show is such a flop that even Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who along with her squad forced Pelosi into calling for this ridiculous “impeachment inquiry” said, “I think the whole thing is boring. He should have been impeached a long time ago, I’m over it, and so that’s how I feel because we’ve got work to do.”

Inspector General Michael Atkinson, who changed the rules governing “whistleblowing” to accommodate this hearsay gossip, will rue the day he did this. He said he was unaware that the “whistleblower,” reportedly a CIA functionary assigned to the White House years ago where he worked with anti-Trump Ukrainians to stop Trump and who has not worked there for two or three years, had first talked to congressional staff. He was unaware of it, perhaps because the whistleblower complaint form asks if he had previously told anyone, including congressional staff, about this and lied about that, subjecting himself to possible felony charges. Moreover, allowing in such unsubstantiated gossip by a liar who had no firsthand knowledge of the substance of the complaint will only unleash a flood of these baseless charges, tying up more government resources on nonsense.

Good stuff, but until Barr starts rounding up the Deep State and coup d'état criminals, all we have on our side is words.


Barr is the powerful and experienced Washington insider and legal expert, but he doesn't seem to be able to read U.S. Code.


18 U.S. Code § 2384. Seditious conspiracy

18 U.S. Code § 2381. Treason

Not only did this ill-conceived hearing based on a fake predicate fail to advance their goal, it has seriously harmed the party’s frontrunner, Joe Biden. Voters might get bleary-eyed trying to remember the names of Ukrainian officials then and now, but graft they understand especially such blatant graft. (I predict a great deal more of Democrat graft with the former corrupt Ukraine officials will be forthcoming.) Biden’s fundraising and poll standings are sinking while Trump’s are rising.

From the article:

__________

"And Obama is not likely to be in the clear any more than Hillary Clinton is. (The largest contributions to the Clinton Foundation, while she was Secretary of State vacuuming up foreign dollars, for example, came from wealthy Ukrainians.)"

"Here’s a detailed, well-documented article by John Solomon on how the Obama White House engaged Ukraine to promote the fake Russian Collusion story."

..... Clarice Feldman is excellent.

Beautiful.

Thanks for that.

By all accounts, the Schiff driven impeachment inquiry ought to be unraveling, but the media establishment continues to breathless report that the investigation is gaining traction.

This is “Mueller” redux and it is going to end badly for the Democrats.

It is incumbent upon our President - any president - to ascertain that a nation we give money to is not corrupt. That is the truth of what this is all about; nothing more. I trust even idiot demorats can see through this crap.

Hope you're right - but the only question that's relevant is, how many votes does Romney have in the Senate?

If and when Romney has the votes, this whole process will be over in a week.

This is why reports that McConnell has promised a "fast trial" (with the compromised CJ Roberts presiding) are so concerning.

Secret hearings in the House, a middle of the night 219-217 floor vote, trial convened the next day with all defense motions ruled out of order or denied, vote by close of business on a "rocket docket", and it's over - or is it?

This is what they have in mind, and it's the one thing that can lead to war.

Re: that last paragraph.

There are 535 members of the House and Senate. Their constituents know and/or suspect far more about most than the media will investigate/report. If constituents became whistle-blowers, sharing the dirt on their particular pols, I’m sure our pols, given their love of whistleblowing, will understand.

I used to watch the cable TV news programs on Sunday morning religiously (no pun intended) every week.

That was until Trump won the GOP nomination. Then it turned into an "everything Trump was bad" experience. As a Trump supporter, that did it for me. Stopped watching the Sunday morning programs altogether.

But then the 24/7 Trump bashing continued on the daily cable TV news programs and I grew tired of that almost immediately too.

It got so bad, I cancelled my DirecTV account and just live-stream off my internet modem, content offerings where I could select my own programming for a fraction of the cost of the cable.

I've never gone back and don't intend to and don't miss it at all. And my monthly bill for TV went from over $200 a month to less that $50 a month. A win-win situation.

Every that goes by and the traitors are not arrested means that eventually we the people will see that justice is done. See Matt Bracken’s article about the coup.

I respectfully disagree. Every day that goes by that no one is arrested, no one is charge, and nothing is done means that justice delayed is justice denied.

Look how quickly Epstein's murder ("suicide"...yeah right) has fallen off the scope. Bagpipe Barr publicly stated he accepted the "suicide" explanation.

The lack of action to hold these coup plotters, inside traders, pedophiles, human traffickers, thieves, liars, and murderers accountable has only emboldened them further. Now they are going to impeach the President.

See Matt Bracken’s article about the coup.

I googled him and only found some books that he wrote. If you have a link, please post it and ping me. Thanks.
