Over a year into the “so called” Russian Collusion Investigation the American people still know very little. Either, special prosecutor Mueller has kept his findings close to his vest or he has no findings. If you listen to any of the main stream media or the liberal left democrats, Trump’s days are numbered. If you listen to Fox News and republican controlled house Intel committee, Mueller, Comey and his band of FBI investigator’s days are numbered. The President, of course continues to say that there is no Trump collusion; only Comey, Hillary, Obama collusion. The debate continues and one wonders, at what cost to the nation.
“So, what are we to believe?” The Intel committee has been asking for, and now demanding information from the FBI and DOJ. Director Sessions continues to allow the slow walk, and in some cases, no walk regarding all the requested information. He claims national security concerns are the reason. This is code for “we don’t want you to have anything.” This may be the most confusing part of this mess. Jeff Sessions was one of the President’s first supporters. Why doesn’t he release everything? Many in his own party are now against him. In the twitter world he is considered a snow flake, a part of the deep state, a part of the Washington Swamp.
This week there is a good chance that the republican held Intel Committee will file contempt charges against Mr. Sessions if he doesn’t release the requested documents by a certain date. That’s a pretty big deal. There has only been one AG ever charged with contempt. That was Obama’s AG, Eric Holder. Prior to that, this had never happened. Never. That’s how serious and frustrated the Intel Committee has become. However, many of us have long since run out of respect and patience with congress; feeling that they should have filed charges months ago.
While I am pretty frustrated too, I keep wondering if Sessions is actually protecting the President in some unknown way. He certainly has information that others don’t have. By releasing the requested documents will they (the docs) reveal something that would harm the President? By concealing the documents is he protecting the country itself? Will the information bring out past actions that would put the country in a bad light around the world? Does Sessions fear that the release of the information will expose Washington’s past corruption?
It’s just so hard for me to believe that Sessions is purposely protecting the deep state, Comey, Hillary and Obama because you know there was no love lost between them. Having said that, I still haven’t forgiven him for recusing himself from anything Russia in the first place. Obama’s two AGs didn’t cower, no matter what went on. On the surface, Sessions looks like he is afraid of his own shadow but, I also wonder if he is the only adult in the room, stuck in the middle of the biggest scandal in history. If I could talk to him, I would tell him that the American people want the truth and we can handle the truth.
This past week, we finally saw a Judge throw the bullshit flag on Mueller. The Judge called Mueller out and told him he would not grant Mueller anything until Mueller presented the Judge with the back-up documents laying out the case. The Right, me included, is hailing the Judge as a true American Patriot. The Judge told Mueller he isn’t allowed to do anything that he wants in order to bring down the President of the United States. Amen Judge, Amen.
My guess is that most Americans are tired of the whole thing and are more interested in getting on to the business of making America great again. While both political sides point fingers Congress has an approval rating of 14%. The President enjoys a 51% approval rating. Seems like the American people have spoken, again. Yet the games continue.
So I ask, “What are we to believe?” Sadly, all indications point to the fact that it doesn’t matter what we believe. The out of control Washington elites are running the show leaving the rest of us in the dark. While Washington plays their political games, we the people, continue to scratch our heads in wonderment. Meanwhile, justice has become the biggest laughing stock of the nation. Most Americans no longer believe equal justice even exists and justifiably so.
I leave you with this final thought, if we have any hope for restored equal justice and any hope to clean up the Washington swamp, it is with this President. President Trump is the right person. He may be the only person who has the courage and the staying power to see through the cleansing of the deep state and the long standing Washington theft of the American Dream.
