Fuck Every Republican Who Says Trump Was Wrong But Won't Vote to Remove Him
Posted by Rude One
Oh, fuck Lisa Murkowski. Yeah, yeah, we can thank her for doing the right thing that one time with the Affordable Care Act and still say, "Fuck Lisa Murkowski." The Alaska senator's statement on why she won't vote to convictresident Donald Trump of the crimes that she admits he
committed is just the fucking worst because she thinks she's making some
grand statement about the state of partisan divisions in the Congress
and the country. Really, it's just ass-covering and bullshit
justification.
She said that "The House rushed through what should be one of the most serious, consequential undertakings of the legislative branch simply to meet an artificial, self-imposed deadline." That "artificial, self-imposed deadline" is the fucking 2020 election. The rush was to make sure that Trump couldn't game it, corrupt it, or, you know, invite foreign countries to get involved by digging up dirt on his rivals and using U.S. foreign policy to get his way. If you know an arsonist is about to set a fire, you stop the fucking arsonist before shit is burned to the ground.
Continuing her speech to the Senate, after a bunch of both-sides garbage, she offered, "The response to theresident’s behavior is not
to disenfranchise nearly 63 million Americans and remove him from the
ballot." Except no one is talking about the disenfranchisement of voters
(well, yeah, Republicans are, but not in this case). It's one of those
idiot arguments that get the rubes to think you're standing up for them
when you're really just not making any goddamn sense. They have the
right to vote. They just couldn't vote for one particular candidate.
Murkowski is also implying that Republicans have no one else to run for
president.
Then, with willful naïveté, Murkowski said, "The Constitution provides for impeachment, but does not demand it in all instances. An incremental first step, to remind theresident that, as Montesquieu
said, 'Political virtue is a renunciation of oneself' and this requires
'a continuous preference of the public interest over one’s own.'" That's
fuckin' hilarious. Yeah, Lisa, go to Donald fuckin' Trump and remind
him of what an 18th century French philosopher said. He'll quote Sean
Hannity back at you between Big Mac bites as you dodge crumbs being spit
in your face.
Even worse is Maine's own anthropomorphic bowl of Jello, Sen. Susan Collins. Her reasoning for not voting to remove Trump from office is as delusional as someone investing in a Trump University education: "I believe theresident has
learned from this case...The resident has been impeached. That's a
pretty big lesson...I believe he will be much more cautious in the
future." I'm cynical enough to think that Collins knows this is
unrepentant bullshit, but if she really believes this, then, seriously,
someone should introduce her to Donald Trump because that asshole has
never felt chastened and the only "lesson" he's learned is "Say you're
right loud enough and often enough and everyone will agree just to make
you shut the fuck up about it."
Tennessee's Lamar Alexander, one of those fake moderates you occasionally hear about but only see as unreal Bigfoot-like blurs running past the Capitol, tried to sound rational in his declaration of Trumpian exoneration. Look at this bastard try to thread a rusty needle: "It was inappropriate for theresident
to ask a foreign leader to investigate his political opponent and to
withhold United States aid to encourage that investigation. When elected
officials inappropriately interfere with such investigations, it
undermines the principle of equal justice under the law. But the
Constitution does not give the Senate the power to remove the president
from office and ban him from this year’s ballot simply for actions that
are inappropriate."
Actually, the Constitution gives the Senate the power to remove a president if it agrees with the House and convicts that president, even for, you know, "misdemeanors." But look at that shit. Alexander says that Trump was undermining "the principle of equal justice under the law." That's pretty fucking significant. And he added, just to sound like he's a thoughtful, dignified statesman instead of the elderly errand boy for a bloated, mad, ignorant dictator-in-waiting, "The framers believed that there should never, ever be a partisan impeachment." There were no goddamn political parties when the Constitution was written. Fucking hell.
Alexander bemoans the "partisan" nature of the House vote for the articles of impeachment, yet, weirdly, doesn't seem to have any problem with witnesses being blocked from testifying by a vote of just Republicans. Apparently, "partisan" only means "Democrats."
We are moving into a degradation of this country's checks and balances the likes of which we haven't seen. Sometimes I think it's more important for Democrats to take back the Senate than it is to win the presidency. That way, Democrats can assert the power of the Legislative Branch in full and restore some kind of fuckin' balance.

Democrats running for Office in 2020.....PAY ATTENTION to the current events....
By ProudMNDemocrat
To win in 2020, EVERY Democrat running for office needs to be paying close attention to the events taking place in the Impeachment trial of Donald Trump..
1) Use the evidence against every Republican running for office that they ARE NOT in the service of the people, but LOYAL to Donald Trump.
2) That every Republican VIOLATED their oaths to do impartial justice, to seek additional evidence from key witnesses and documents.
3) That Republicans are interested in THEIR POWER than following the rule of law and defending the US Constitution.
4) EXPOSE their hypocrisy to the world.
5) Still talk about the issues...What kind of country do we want if Trump is acquitted?
6) MAKE this election a referendum on Trump. Do that by tying EVERY Republican to Trump.
Just my 2 cents worth on a Sunday. Pass this message on to your Democratic Candidates for the Senate and US House.

Mentally Unstable Trump Claims The Wheel Was Invented In America
Donald Trump gave a rambling, incoherent interview to CNBC while at the World Economic Forum yesterday, where he claimed that the United States needed to protect our inventors and patents, including the invention of the wheel.
Trump seems to believe that the wheel was invented in the U.S., even though the earliest reports show that it had been in use for transport for thousands of years BEFORE the United States even existed as a country.
Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Senate Republicans Vote To Block Witnesses & Evidence In Impeachment Trial
In what shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone, Republicans in the Senate unanimously voted to block both evidence and witnesses in the impeachment trial of Donald Trump.
This vote came after weeks of media speculation about Republican Senators being “on the fence” and some even openly saying that they wanted witnesses.
In the end, these Republicans showed us what they care the most about, and it isn’t the rule of law.
Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Jared Kushner Is A MASSIVE National Security Threat
Jared Kushner’s use of WhatsApp to allegedly message world leaders about policy issues has been well-documented. But with recent reports alleging that the Saudi Royal Family hacked into Jeff Bezos’ phone via his WhatsApp account, this raises very serious national security concerns about Kushner, who was also messaging members of the royal family.
If they can get into Bezos’ account, they can certainly get into Kushner’s, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.
