Like Newt says - they were going all-in for corruption thinking that they were protecting Hillary and making a case against Trump when Hillary won.....it’s a major blessing that Trump won....

WE, on the conservative side of the aisle.. or on the side that stands against all the rest of the world... WE have to get this in our minds, deep... that we stand against the powers that be.. the powers that have gone nuclear on us.. the powers that will to take control of the world... the powers that are hitting us at every corner.. and the ONLY Thing that has kept us from being annihilated thus far, is the small amount of law left and the few that still honor the constitution ... and our votes that elected Donald Trump.
Otherwise, we’d be toast and they are still trying in any way they can think up.. and that is with the powers that be.. the judges, the media and their lies... to turn us into toast.

We have to know this is a fight till one side wins this particular battle.. for I think we have been weak and talking it to death while they are hitting us on all points. Just think about this week.. since congress has stepped in and at least heard what is going on.. and some have taken steps against the other side.. how good it sounds to hear it for a change. They have taken forever to do anything here in December..
To come to the realization of how serious all this is, is part of the battle... for no one seems to want to do much in congress... just let them attack Trump.. just let hillary go free.. just let them have their millions from selling our country.. just let obama spread his lies on TV to the public.. just let the media tall lies and attack our President like they have!!

Do we realize that IF congress.. if the republicans had circles around Trump, the media would have let up .. if we had taken them to a hard task state... if we demanded.. if we got loud and hateful... took them to task... they would not have been able to carry on like they have. It’s all public opinion and what it allows.. and we have allowed a lot. just don’t want to fight.. just don’t want to get ugly.. we are just busy people.. we have jobs and can’t take off.. it’ll all wash out in the end.. rather watch TV or ....

Everyone in the District of Corruption is desperate to cover up everything because it will all lead to the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

Except Trump, everyone else is complicit in the violation of our Constitution.

The Constitution was violated on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009

An ineligible usurper was installed as President.

Obama is not a natural born citizen, naturally an American because he could be no other, born here of citizen parents.
The founders meant to exclude any possible foreign influence on the Presidency by excluding the children of foreigners who would naturally have divided loyalties.

Starting to look interesting, the evil lurking behind the scenes of rampant DC corruption.

“That swamp has worse incest than a holler fulla WalMartians!”

We live in a fairly large area wide county with about 125,000 people. 50% of the population is in the biggest city. The other 4 cities have most of the rest of the population fairly well divided up.

Any one with half of a working brain soon figures out that there is no 6 degrees of separation anywhere.

Many of us joke about 1 degree of separation.

Those with 3rd to 5th generations born and raised here, they joke about many who are here re lack of separation.

There isn’t even 1 degree of separation, there is incest!

This impacts businesses, churches and other social groups.

One can only imagine how bad the incest is in the DC swamp and the rich counties around DC.

“I can’t think of an example of a left wing activist judge voluntarily rescuing himself. Must be rare.”

One of the problems on the West Coast are judges, who are big time Sierra Club donors, members and often officers or board members in the local and national Sierra Club. So when one of their Sierra Club lawyers are suing you for some petty eco violation, you have a problem.

A friend got into a scuffle with some fish and game and eco terrorists. Somehow his lawyer had gotten membership lists and donor lists of the local judges.

His lawyer was an out of town guy. So his lawyer had no problems burning judicial bridges here. He went through 3 judges before they agreed to settle out of court with a visiting non Sierra club judge. Our friend got a minimal fine versus a big fine and some possible jail time.

The stench from criminal corruption from those in government has become overwhelming.

Well,one might suspect it is so. However it is alarming that according to this article he waited a little bit long to recuse himself if in fact he did recuse himself?

“Obviously, the customary reason for recusal is when there is a conflict of interest between the case as assigned and the judge overseeing it.  However, as you can clearly see, in this case it’s rather odd that if a conflict existed the judge would have even begun to oversee the case at the prior hearing.  Why wait until six days after the first hearing?”
“As to the reasoning for the recusal, and stressed against the backdrop of the new information surrounding the investigative practices of the DOJ and FBI, this recusal is potentially both a game-changer and a massive dose of sunlight.”

Interesting. If FISA unmasking of Trump associates was done on the basis of obviously phony evidence, the judge himself could be subject to investigation. This means he has an interest in ensuring the swamp does not get drained.

Up here in the mountains of West Virginia we have a lot of hollers full of Walmartians. We enjoy watching them happily wobbling around our local WM with their EBT cards.
