Democrats had every opportunity to conduct impeachment proceedings in
whatever manner they deemed appropriate. But House Intelligence
Committee Chairman Adam Schiff is now upset that Senate Republicans will
be afforded the same opportunity in the Senate.
"I
think there are any number of witnesses that should be called in the
Senate trial, and many witnesses the American people would like to hear
from that the administration has refused to make available," Schiff
complained to ABC's "This Week" host George Stephanopoulos. Rep. Jerrold
Nadler also spoke to Stephanopolous and echoed Chairman Schiff's
concerns about the Senate trial.
Africa: Genocidal Islamic persecution of Christians gaining traction as world remains mostly indifferent By Christine Douglass-Williams / Jihad Watch
“Christians are experiencing ‘genocidal, religious-based violence’ in
many parts of Africa as Islamic terror groups gain greater traction on
the continent, according to Save the Persecuted Christians, a U.S.-based

Op-ed: A Political Upheaval in the Making

“This
is really a sad day -- a big show…America needs to hear from the
witnesses; and, we didn't get to hear from them here. This was a
kangaroo court -- outrageous to put the country through this!”
-
Rep. Louie Gohmert, December 13, 2019
Outrageous
puts it mildly...actually criminal if you ask me for when a man...a
president...is charged and then quasi-convicted of crimes his
accusers know well he did not commit, the accusers themselves then
become guilty of railroading an innocent man. And after witnessing
last week's Judiciary Committee's fabrications coupled with its
parade of overtly partisan driven anything but impartial constitutional
scholars, now has me wondering if the sum total of their collective
committee intelligence doesn't hoover around borderline moronic, if
even that.
If
even that indeed for the truth is that what the Judiciary Committee
did...and did on the heels of Adam Schiff's jokingly ridiculous House
Intelligence Impeachment Freak Show...is
actually a slap in the face to the 62,984,828 of we American citizens
who proudly voted for Donald J. Trump in 2016...as these Democrat
miscreants think our IQ's must be collectively as low as they've now
proven theirs to be.
“You
can fool some of the people some of the time”...as
part of the old saying goes, but the only ones truly being fooled are
the Democrats on both said committees for recent political polls have
shown that the American people are not buying what they're trying to
sell. And what exactly are the Democrats trying so hard to sell...how about
the “weaponization of the process of
impeachment” itself...a process used as
their means of seeking revenge for Trump's political take-down of
Hillary Clinton...the Democrats hoped for second coming of theoriginal
“anointed one”...as
in Barack HUSSEIN Obama then being the one who would, if she had won,
pull Hillary's presidential strings.
And
the “weaponization of impeachment”
was
actually foreseen in Alexander Hamilton's March 7, 1788 essay in
Federalist 65, the sixty-fifth essay within “The Federalist Papers."This is where the Founders and Framers attempting to “insulate
the impeachment process” from
partisan politics, with words warning of
"the greatest danger that the decision will be relegated more by
the comparative strength of parties, than by the real demonstrations
of innocence or guilt."
And
this, unfortunately, is exactly what's happening to President Trump.
But do know that this specific impeachment is not just about Trump's win, Hillary
Clinton's loss, or Obama's what would have been his de facto third
term in office, for this goes back even further to when in the 2000
presidential election George W. Bush was ultimately declared the
winner in a razor close election against Billy-Boy Clinton's former
V.P. Al Gore...the election forever deemed the
“hanging chads”
fiasco...the election call waiting around in the political wings
festering for years for just the right time and for just the right
Republican president to use impeachment against.
Now
setting a precedent that could and probably will be used against any
duly elected sitting president whom the opposing party does not
approve of, partisan driven impeachment could and will most likely
remain but a sour grapes “bitch
slapping” of sorts as witnessed by the two articles of
impeachment now having been leveled against President Trump by the
very party whose titular head, House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi,
has previously stated that “impeachment must be bipartisan.”
“Abuse of Power” and “Obstruction of Congress”...both
charges solely vivindictive in nature, yet the fact remains that
President Trump committed no crime for no crime even
existed...especially nothing that reaches the constitutional mandate
of “high crimes and misdemeanors.”
And while
President Trump surely did not commit any such grievous acts key
Democrats and certain departments and personnel did, with abject
“Abuse of Power” actually occurring at the Department of
Justice and most especially at the FBI who together violated the law
to obtain all of the Carter Page spy warrants targeting President
Trump...the very same warrants the FISA court has now been shown to have
issued via no less than 17 missteps. And let's not
forget how the DNC paid good money to “set Trump up” via
the fact-less, never substantiated, and ever so lying Steele Dossier.
But more overtly
seen in regards to the “Obstruction of Congress”
charge...a charge more in line with both Adam Sciff's and Jerry
Nadler's behavior then it ever will be President Trump's...was
witnessed by what occurred in both the House Intel Committee hearings
as well as in the more recent hearings and vote to impeach taken by
the House Judiciary Committee. How so...neither committee chairman
allowed opposing witnesses to be called to testify let alone the
whistleblower himself for neither man could risk Republicans
exposing said whistleblower or the hearings itself for the sour
grapes partisan sham, charade, farce, witch hunt, kangaroo court,
and/or political coup that we bore witness to...pick the name of your
choosing as they all fit like a glove.
Now for some specific details regarding both “Articles of
Impeachment” and how they actually relate to both the committee
chairs and not to President Trump. First, let's start with Adam
Schiff and the fact that he not only “abused power” in his
making the House Intel Committee hearings strictly a one-sided
partisan affair, but that he also “abused power” afforded
him as committee chair by bold-faced lying on national television
about his not having met with, let alone knowing, who the
whistleblower is. But the truth is that Adam Schiff not only knows
and has always known who the whistleblower is but that he probably
even helped write CIA whistleblower Eric
Ciaramella's...oops...official complaint against President Trump...a
complaint written in “legalize”...a complaint supposedly
written by a person who supposedly admitted in the past to being
totally unfamiliar with the language of the law...the very language
needed to file such an official complaint.
And yet Adam Schiff remained adamant while the hearings were ongoing that neither he himself nor anyone on his staff knew who back
then the whistleblower was or who the whistleblower is now. And this
was constantly repeated by Schiff no matter that we already knew that
his staff had met with Ciaramella just this past August. And yet
Schiff, to date, still refuses to answer questions about what he knew
about Ciaramella and when exactly he knew it claiming as chairman
that he does not have to answer questions as he's not been subpoenaed
nor placed under oath to do so.
Arrogance personified I'd say. And let's not forget Schiff's
facing the cameras to say that he's been fighting against impeachment
for over a year when the truth is that it's been he who has been
calling for Trump's impeachment from the very day he officially won
the presidency.
And Schiff's “power abuse” also spills over into
“obstructing Congress,” again via the House Intel hearings
being but a partisan one-sided affair. Remember, Republicans
technically had every legal right to call witnesses of their
choosing, including whistleblower Eric Charamella as well as Joe
Biden and his son Hunter, the two men who remain the crux of what was
supposed to be a fair and impartial investigation of a president
Democrats claimed overstepped his bounds via a phone call...a phone
call whose transcript they continue to erroneously claim was tampered
with. But how could these hearings be fair... how could Congress be
given both sides of the story upon which to base their vote if only
one side was allowed to be presented. Simply, Congress cannot for in
Schiff's denying key facts and actual witnesses to the events in
question from testifying, it now forces Congress to base their voting
upon second and third hand hearsay...hearsay presented by partisan
shills. And if that's not a deliberate and with malice intended
“Obstruction of Congress” than I don't know what is.
Now as for Jerry Nadler, the Chairman of the House Judiciary
Committee...a committee with the same lack of impartiality as
Schiff's House Intel Committee...Nadler “abused power” and
“obstructed Congress” in the exact same way that Adam
Schiff did in his also refusing to allow any witnesses to testify
that the Republicans wanted called including Adam Schiff himself, the very author of the report that outlines the findings from both the public hearings and closed-door
interviews conducted by impeachment investigators, thus making the Judiciary hearings
not only one-sided but causing each and every vote taken to be
predetermined...as in a 23 to 17 party line vote. And this is the
very thing the a fore mentioned Alexander Hamilton feared most
concerning “strength of parties” instead of “demonstrating
innocence or guilt” when
impeachment of the president was felt to be the country's only
recourse.
It's way passed time to bring
“Abuse of Power” and
“Obstruction of Congress” charges
against both Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler and not even allow a vote
to be taken in the Senate...which would be the next step after
Wednesday's upcoming House vote...for being tasked with heading a
committee does not mean one has the right to run said committee like
a tyrannical dictator out of control.
And these same charges also need
to be brought against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for her own words
that have now come back to haunt. Saying in a televised interview
that the Democrats have been working on impeaching President Trump
for the past 2-1/2 years...2-1/2 years when the official call for
impeachment was presented as Trump asking for favors in a July 25,
2019 phone call with Ukranian President Zelenski...thus proving this
entire process...hearings as well as votes...has been based upon
what's called "false representation."
The entire impeachment case
against President Trump needs to be thrown out and certain Democrat
arrests made based upon their maliciously deliberate “false
representation” of charges,
coupled with unproven ethical violations being made against a
duly-elected sitting president. Allowing this farce to even be voted
on in the House is bad enough, but to allow it to go to vote in the
Senate gives what is actually a partisan driven political coup a modicum of credence it does not deserve. And yet the process will
probably be seen through for while Republicans are united with
President Trump they still...save for a vocal few...lack the courage
to stop this nonsense from going any further.
So with the Democrats now having
put the final nail in their 2020 political coffins...the only good
thing coming from this total waste of time and taxpayer dollars...we
now see some moderate Democrats realizing that this call for
impeachment is not only based upon false accusations but that it's
dividing our country in a way we haven't seen in years. And this in
turn has given rise to the fact that 31 red district Democrats who
are the most vulnerable in next November election are still undecided as
to how they will vote.
But some are truly brave and are doing the right thing. Such is
the case with first-term lawmaker Jeff Van Drew from New Jersey, who
it seems will be quitting the party and be putting an R next to his
name before Wednesday's House vote. Remember, impeachment remains all
about numbers and all that's needed is for 17 Democrats to vote “no”
thus leaving impeachment to die in the House before it will assuredly
die in the Senate. And some of those 31 red district Democrats, like
Michigan’s Elissa Slotkin and Haley Stevens; South Carolina’s Joe
Cunningham; New Jersey’s Andy Kim and Mikie Sherrill; New York’s
Anthony Brindisi; and Oklahoma’s Kendra Horn have not yet decided
on how they will vote. Sometimes it only takes one to start the ball
rolling...only time will tell. But know that with any defections the
Democrats have lost the battle for unless the vote is
unanimous...which it will not be...the wedge they hoped to drive into
the Republican party will have been driven into the Democrat party
instead.
And as for the polls earlier mentioned, those too have shifted
away from impeachment what with the way the inquiry and hearings were
handled...with it's rush to convict along with its abuse of the
process being solely partisan in nature...and with the economy on
strong footing and with the jobs numbers continuing to grow we now
see numbers the Democrats never expected to see especially with most
polls showing that Trump will win the 2020 election no matter whom
the Democrats run against him. Even the left-leaning Washington Post
shows that in the battleground states of Arizona, Florida, Michigan,
Pennsylvania, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, and Wisconsin,
an average of 44% of those recently surveyed supported impeachment
while 51% did not proving that Independents are now coming over to the
no impeachment, Trump 2020 side, in record numbers.
But when all is said and done, the only thing that truly matters
is that come Tuesday, November 6, 2020 every registered Republican
and every registered Independent, along with the Democrat moderate
masses, get out and vote for the Trump/Pence ticket if for no other
reason than if they lose socialism will become your, mine, and our
new norm.
