Post #55 (July 24, 2019)
I'm not going to tell anyone who to vote for or what party to support. I have already stated in prior posts that I have no preference for neither the Democratic Party nor the Republican Party. As far as I'm concerned, they are on the same page when it come to corruption. Both parties are corrupt to their cores and they care nothing about the rights of the American people. I also stated in prior posts that I believe that public corruption is the greatest threat to democracy, not Donald Trump, not the Russians, not Iran or North Korea, and not China. Now all this could change in the blink of an eye. But as we stand today, it's crooked and corrupt government officials elected and appointed that pose the greatest existential threat to Democracy and the Constitution which is the foundation for our rule of law. I know some smarty pants out there is going to point out my apparent inconsistent statement because obviously Trump is an elected official. The reason Trump is less of a threat to democracy and the Constitution than other government officials is the abundance of oversight that is exercised over all of his actions. Nearly everything he does is met with resistance by the Democrats and the mainstream media or by a court challenge from progressive leaning groups. No other officials in our government come close to getting the same oversight as President Trump.
Now about this spectacle that went on in Washington, DC today that was the Mueller Hearing. We all know about Mueller's probe into possible collusion between the Trump Administration and the Russians during the past presidential election, and allegations that Trump attempted to obstruct Mueller's investigation. For the life of me, I can't understand why the Democrats continue to push this nonsense surrounding Mueller's probe. Democrats have no shame and no honor when it comes to their desire to build a case for impeaching President Trump. It's no wonder the Bible warns against hate. Hate is truly a bad thing, and the Democrats are a prime example of how bad it is to be full of hate. They have become totally irrational, unhinged, deranged and consumed behind Mueller's investigation which found that there was no collusion between Trump and the Russians. All Democrats have left is a possible obstruction case that is weak at best.
First of all, it was clear during the Obama Administration that there was no collusion between Trump and the Russians, and that Russia's attempt at meddling in our election had no impact on the outcome of the election. Let us use some commonsense here. There were several investigations by intelligence officials, Congress, and the FBI into this matter. Not a single piece of evidence was uncovered that Trump or any members of his campaign colluded. There was absolutely no need for a Special Counsel investigation. The Special Counsel was appointed only after FBI Director James Comey was fired and he leaked a letter to the press suggesting that Trump had tried to obstruct justice in the Michael Flynn case. If Comey had not been fired, we would not have had to suffer through Mueller's investigation and all of the spectacles attendant to it; namely the testimony of Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen, Attorney General William Barr, and now Robert Mueller himself. Plain and simple, the Mueller investigation was a farce and was retaliation for the firing of James Comey by Trump.
I stated in a post on June 6, 2019 that there could not be a lawful obstruction case brought against Trump because the underlying investigation is based on fraud and justice was never the intent. I compared an obstruction case against Trump to the case of a police officer making an unlawful arrest. A person can't be charged lawfully for resisting an unlawful arrest. That is just the truth. It's not about whether you like or dislike Donald Trump. This is about being honest with yourself and saying what is right. The Democrats continue to make fools of themselves by conducting this hearing today before the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees for the purpose of gathering evidence for impeachment. The hearing today was unnecessary because Mueller stated that he would only testify to what was in his report. There was nothing new to gain in the way of evidence against Trump. Mueller pretty much kept his word and stuck to what was in his report during his testimony. The hearing made for good political theater but produced no significant new evidence that favors impeachment for obstruction of justice. As I just pointed out, any case brought against Trump for obstruction would be moot from the standpoint that the underlying investigation was not legit. Fraud vitiates everything!
I believe the Democrats are making fools of themselves for other reasons. It is clear from their tolerance for prior cases of obstruction of justice that their obsession with the weak obstruction case against the President is politically motivated and insincere. I gave two such examples of solid obstruction of justice cases in my post on June 6, 2019 that the Democrats were unwilling to call for any prosecution or accountability. One case involved the Hillary Clinton email scandal. You would be hard pressed to find a more flagrant case of obstruction of justice. The evidence was quite compelling: thirty thousand emails deleted that were under subpoena, computer hard drives were wipe clean, and communication devices containing material evidence were smashed to bits. Destroying evidence in a criminal investigation is classic obstruction of justice. Yet, the same Democrats were quick to defend Clinton; and they now want to impeach Trump for far less reprehensible conduct than Clinton. The second case I mentioned in my post on June 6, 2019 involves a conspiracy by Democrats and Republicans to cover up an obstruction of justice and case-fixing scheme involving several San Jose city officials, officials with the US District Court in San Jose and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. The Democrats who are now seeking to impeach Trump have failed to call for an investigation into the egregious conduct of San Jose city officials and federal court officials. The Democrats would be wise to think twice before proceeding with this foolhardy impeachment nonsense.
