Those were the go-to words this week that were spread throughout the Democrat party and their buddies in the mainstream media. I used to joke that the DNC sends out memos everyday laying out what the talking point must be for the day. Now I actually believe it. “We are now in a Constitutional Crisis” says congressman, humpty dumpty Nadler. “You want to know what a Constitutional Crisis looks like, you’re watching one right now.” says Dumb, dumb Don Lemon of CNN. And on it goes with more examples to use than I care to spend time on. Oh Hell, here’s one more. “I do believe we are in a Constitutional Crisis, the President, though his actions are impeaching himself.” That came my from favorite ding dong, Nancy, I can’t keep my teeth in my mouth, Pelosi.
The Democrats and their authorized mouth piece, the MSM would like us to believe that we are in a crisis because the newly elected Attorney General, William Barr refused to come before the House Committee to answer questions regarding the Mueller report. We are in a Constitutional Crisis because the AG is refusing to release the full unredacted Mueller report. We are in a Constitutional Crisis because the President has invoked Executive Privilege by not allowing anyone under his purview to testify regarding the Mueller report.
First, the Attorney General released the Mueller report to Congress with less than 5% redactions. The redacted parts concern Grand Jury information which, by law he cannot release. So, in a nut shell, these Democrats demanded that the Attorney General break the law. When he refused, they voted to hold him in contempt of Congress. This now goes to the full house… The AG went even further though, he placed another copy of the report in a secure location with even fewer redactions and invited the Republican and Democrat leadership to come read it. As of this posting, only five Republicans have taken the time to review the report. No Democrats have bothered… What does that tell you?
Second, the AG agreed to testify before the House just as he had done in the Senate but, two days prior to testifying the dastardly Dems changed the rules and informed AG Barr that for the first time in the history of the House, they would have their staff attorneys question him. Barr told them to stick it.
Finally, the President, evoking executive privilege by not allowing anyone on his staff from testifying about the Mueller report was the final straw to the Constitutional Crisis. Most people don’t know this but, by law, the President could have done this long ago and thus Mueller would not have been able to interview anyone in the Trump Administration, but he didn’t. Clinton did when he was under the thumb of a special counsel and he was smart to do so. Trump has said all along he has nothing to hide so allowed hundreds of hours of testimony by his staff. He gave over a million documents to Mueller.
As you know, two years later and some 35 million dollars spent, the final Mueller report came up with no collusion. Trump is done with this hoax. And when I say done, I mean done. In his view, he has gone above and beyond playing the Russia collusion game. Mueller was allowed to finish his job and write his report. Ah, but the Dems don’t like the report and will continue this hoax for as long as the President is in office. And even worse, with the report clearing the President, the Dems are now going to look at everything Trump. Is there anyone they haven’t subpoenaed?
I do agree however, we are in a Constitutional Crisis but it sure as hell doesn’t have anything to do with the President. Our crisis is with Congress. Our do nothing Congress spends their waking hours trying to figure out how to get rid of Trump or at least make him look like such a buffoon that he won’t be reelected; all while allowing our borders to remain wide open allowing hundreds of thousands of illegals to flow into our country bringing with them drugs, crime, disease and further debt as we pay for their every need. It’s a crisis, it’s unacceptable. That’s not all. Over two months ago, the President successfully secured a new and much better trade agreement with Canada and Mexico (USMCA). This now sits in the House awaiting for approval. Unless you stay in contact with the President you/we don’t even hear about this anymore. What’s the hold up? Everyone knows and agrees that it is much better for us. The hold-up is simple, Trump did this and therefore it must not become law. These Dems hate Trump more than they love America. It’s the truth. They (Congress) don’t stand with him on anything. He is fighting with China to correct what’s been wrong for decades but all we hear is how he is damaging the country with the tariffs. Hell, the very people getting hit hardest because of the tariffs, the ranchers and farmers and iron workers aren’t complaining, they’re supporting the President. Not the Dems though.
The Constitutional Crisis in this country is that we have the Democrat Party clearly and without question, putting party over what’s best for the country. In the early years of Trump’s presidency, I used to joke that Trump could cure cancer and the Dems would question why it took him so long. Today I say, that’s no joke and by the way, it’s not funny either.
By the way, non-political comment: HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all you Moms out there. I lost my mom when I was 12 years old. I can tell you, all of the good I have in me was given to me by my mom. My father, if alive, would agree. Wishing you all a wonderful, special day.
