And “give it a rest,” A friend?

Not hardly, dude!

That would be playing right into the hands of the “bad guys,” as you call them, the Democrats – that is what they are hoping will happen, that they can beat us into submission under a huge mountain of bull**** they are working in tandem to spew, so the streams just keep on coming.

The “bad guys,” the Democrats, know full well that by spewing forth all their lies in gouts, they hold the advantage, because the lies they tell in a couple of sentences then require paragraphs to debunk them, and in the meantime, the spew of horse**** continues unabated, so the mountain gets higher and higher.

So, when they finally decide to give it a rest and stop lying to us and feeding us gobs of horse****, then and only then will I cease my efforts to debunk their lies and horse****.

And seriously, A friend, would you expect anything less from me?

Paul Plante says:

If we go to the political website of Adam Schiff, Democrat congressman from Burbank, California, we find the following propaganda spew, to wit:

Since his election to Congress in 2000, Congressman Adam Schiff has been a consistent and effective voice for our community, country and kids.

In Congress, Adam has focused on keeping our country safe, encouraging job and wage growth that is shared by everyone, protecting the civil rights of all Americans, and ensuring America is prepared to lead the world for the next century by supporting education and the sciences.

Adam is the top Democrat, or Ranking Member, on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

Adam currently represents the 28th Congressional District, which includes the cities of Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena, La Cañada, West Hollywood, and the communities of La Crescenta, Montrose, Sunland, Tujunga, as well as Silver Lake, Echo Park, Elysian Valley, Hollywood, Los Feliz and Griffith Park.

In Congress, Adam has distinguished himself as a leading voice on national security, where he has worked to protect our country and further our interests, while ensuring that our actions at home and abroad are in line with our values.

end quotes

And that self-serving statement about Adam Schiff “distinguishing” himself as a “leading voice” (God help the nation for that) on “national security” brings us back to a RealClearPolitics article entitled “There Was No Collusion, Adam Schiff” by dsaunders@sfchronicle.com on 31 March 2019, as follows:

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump called on House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff to resign from Congress.

That, of course, is not going to happen.

Even after special counsel Robert Mueller found no conspiracy or coordination between Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russian actors, Schiff told The Washington Post, “Undoubtedly, there is collusion.”

end quotes

Adam Schiff is like a dog on a bone there, and he just is not going to let go, primarily because that is a good fundraising scam for him to employ – despite there being no evidence that Trump colluded with the Russians, Adam Schiff remains convinced that Trump had to collude with the Russians in order for him to have bested Democrat CHAMPION Hillary Clinton, who herself was very tight with the Russians, which takes us back to that article as follows:

That establishes Schiff as a facts-don’t-matter chairman who makes fellow Democrats seem immune to reality.

But that’s their right, and Schiff did win his Southern California district with 78 percent of the vote.

So instead of resigning, Schiff shrewdly started fundraising and campaigning on the heels of Trump’s demand.

“Adam won’t be intimidated,” a campaign tweet said, “Show Adam you have his back: add your name now.”

end quotes

Yes, people, it is all about raking in those BIG BUCK$, and for smarmy little twerp-o-crat Adam Schiff, that means he has to keep beating on that same drum over and over and over and over, as we again see by returning to that article as follows:

On Thursday, all nine Republicans on the committee called on Schiff to resign his chairmanship because he continued to argue there is evidence of collusion between Team Trump and the Russians.

As House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called GOP members “scaredy cats,” Schiff doubled down on his collusion claim, with sound bites about his high standards that soar above the low-ball behavior of the Trump campaign and Republicans who defend the Trump team.

“You may think it’s OK how Trump and his associates interacted with Russians during the campaign,” Schiff said to his colleagues.

“I don’t.”

“I think it’s immoral.”

“I think it’s unethical.”

“I think it’s unpatriotic.”

“And yes, I think it’s corrupt.”

end quotes

And as a loyal American citizen who is not a politician like Adam Schiff, I personally think it was immoral, unethical, unpatriotic, and yes, corrupt, the way Hillary Rodham Clinton interacted with the Russians, making them stronger at our expense as a nation and as a people, when she was Hussein Obama’s secretary of state, but the Democrats choose to turn their collective backs on all of that in a cover-up attempt to keep our attention off of Hillary’s dirty doing with the Russians, which takes to an article THE HILL entitled “Schiff: Intelligence agencies focused on Russian interference ‘even if the president isn’t'” by Zack Budryk on 16 June 2019, as follows:

House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) reacted Sunday to a New York Times report on U.S. intelligence agencies’ efforts against Russian election meddling that drew President Trump’s ire.

The Times article, published Saturday, detailed U.S. efforts to penetrate Russia’s power grid.

“It has gotten far, far more aggressive over the past year,” one senior intelligence official told the Times.

“We are doing things at a scale that we never contemplated a few years ago.”

“What I found most disturbing in that New York Times story was the fact that the security officials within the administration felt they couldn’t tell this to the president because they felt he might compromise that information,” Schiff said.

end quotes

Which, as can be expected from Adam Schiff, is horse****, if we actually bother to read the New York Times article, but before we do, let’s go back to a Washington Post article entitled “Obama’s secret struggle to punish Russia for Putin’s election assault” by Greg Miller, Ellen Nakashima, and Adam Entous on 23 June 2017, for some necessary background here that Adam Schiff, the head intelligence dude for the Democrats was apparently not familiar with, to wit:

A U.S. cyber-weapon

The most difficult measure to evaluate is one that Obama alluded to in only the most oblique fashion when announcing the U.S. response.

“We will continue to take a variety of actions at a time and place of our choosing, some of which will not be publicized,” he said in a statement released by the White House.

He was referring, in part, to a cyber operation that was designed to be detected by Moscow but not cause significant damage, officials said.

The operation, which entailed implanting computer code in sensitive computer systems that Russia was bound to find, served only as a reminder to Moscow of the United States’ cyber reach.

But Obama also signed the secret finding, officials said, authorizing a new covert program involving the NSA, CIA and U.S. Cyber Command.

The cyber operation is still in its early stages and involves deploying “implants” in Russian networks deemed “important to the adversary and that would cause them pain and discomfort if they were disrupted,” a former U.S. official said.

The implants were developed by the NSA and designed so that they could be triggered remotely as part of retaliatory cyber-strike in the face of Russian aggression, whether an attack on a power grid or interference in a future presidential race.

Officials familiar with the measures said that there was concern among some in the administration that the damage caused by the implants could be difficult to contain.

As a result, the administration requested a legal review, which concluded that the devices could be controlled well enough that their deployment would be considered “proportional” in varying scenarios of Russian provocation, a requirement under international law.

The operation was described as long-term, taking months to position the implants and requiring maintenance thereafter.

Under the rules of covert action, Obama’s signature was all that was necessary to set the operation in motion.

U.S. intelligence agencies do not need further approval from Trump, and officials said that he would have to issue a countermanding order to stop it.

The officials said that they have seen no indication that Trump has done so.

end quotes

So this cyber-warfare mentioned by Adam Schiff in the above article where he tells us that officials in Trump’s administration don’t trust him with this information, without mentioning who they might be, has been public knowledge now since 23 June 2017, almost two years now, thanks to the Washington Post, which is probably read by the Russians, so our “SECRET CYBER WAR” against the Russians is no secret at all, so Schiff is talking through his hat when he tells us that “security officials within the administration felt they couldn’t tell this to the president because they felt he might compromise that information.”

And to see exactly how stupid little Adam sounds there, let us go to the New York Times article entitled “U.S. Escalates Online Attacks on Russia’s Power Grid” by David E. Sanger and Nicole Perlroth on 16 June 2019 referenced above by Adam Schiff where we have as follows:

WASHINGTON — The United States is stepping up digital incursions into Russia’s electric power grid in a warning to President Vladimir V. Putin and a demonstration of how the Trump administration is using new authorities to deploy cybertools more aggressively, current and former government officials said.

end quotes

Now, I don’t know about any of you, but as I read that first sentence in the New York Times article, two things immediately leap out at us, to wit:

A) If the Trump administration is using new authorities to deploy cybertools more aggressively against Russia’s electric grid, then it would follow that Trump already is aware of what is going on, and

B) Since it is in the New York Times, the Russians also know about it.

So where is the big secret, Adam, besides in your fertile imagination?

Getting back to the NYT, let’s see what other “SECRETS” are being revealed here that these security officials within the administration felt they couldn’t tell to the president because they felt he might compromise that information, as if the NYT hasn’t already compromised it, to wit:

In interviews over the past three months, the officials described the previously unreported deployment of American computer code inside Russia’s grid and other targets as a classified companion to more publicly discussed action directed at Moscow’s disinformation and hacking units around the 2018 midterm elections.

Advocates of the more aggressive strategy said it was long overdue, after years of public warnings from the Department of Homeland Security and the F.B.I. that Russia has inserted malware that could sabotage American power plants, oil and gas pipelines, or water supplies in any future conflict with the United States.

But it also carries significant risk of escalating the daily digital Cold War between Washington and Moscow.

The administration declined to describe specific actions it was taking under the new authorities, which were granted separately by the White House and Congress last year to United States Cyber Command, the arm of the Pentagon that runs the military’s offensive and defensive operations in the online world.

end quotes

Now, this probably sails right over the head of Adam Schiff, who really is not very swift on the uptake, but one would think that if the White House, which is Trump, granted the authorities in the first place, that Trump would know about them before these so-called security officials within the administration who felt they couldn’t tell any of this to the president because they felt he might compromise that information according to Adam Schiff, so we can see exactly how stupid that statement of his really is, and again, since the New York Times has already compromised the information, what is the big deal, other than fundraising, of course.

Getting back to the NYT to see what other secrets are being revealed here, we have:

But in a public appearance on Tuesday, President Trump’s national security adviser, John R. Bolton, said the United States was now taking a broader view of potential digital targets as part of an effort “to say to Russia, or anybody else that’s engaged in cyberoperations against us, ‘You will pay a price.’”

Power grids have been a low-intensity battleground for years.

Since at least 2012, current and former officials say, the United States has put reconnaissance probes into the control systems of the Russian electric grid.

But now the American strategy has shifted more toward offense, officials say, with the placement of potentially crippling malware inside the Russian system at a depth and with an aggressiveness that had never been tried before.

It is intended partly as a warning, and partly to be poised to conduct cyberstrikes if a major conflict broke out between Washington and Moscow.

end quotes

So there we have what the Russians now know, if they didn’t before, which is highly doubtful, and it seems the only one who doesn’t have a clue as to what is going on here is Adam Schiff himself, especially since we have as follows from the NYT:

Mr. Trump issued new authorities to Cyber Command last summer, in a still-classified document known as National Security Presidential Memoranda 13, giving General Nakasone far more leeway to conduct offensive online operations without receiving presidential approval.

end quotes

Doesn’t this get exceedingly tedious here, people, having Adam Schiff constantly running around like a chicken with its head cut off, screeching about Trump giving away all of our secrets to the Russians, when in fact, that honor really should go to Hillary Clinton and Hussein Obama?

MEMO TO ADAM SCHIFF: Adam, dude, you are getting so tiresome with your stupid tirades against Trump which are based on lies, so give it a rest, dude!

Find something real to talk about, and maybe you can get some credibility back, but until then, Adam, when you look in the mirror, what you have staring back at you is a LOSER!

Paul Plante says:

And talk about a political house of cards poorly built on shifting sand that can’t even withstand a zephyr breeze that is now coming down around his ears, with those ears belonging to the smarmy and unctuous Democrat from Hollywood, California little Adam Schiff, a top Democrat fundraiser, I am referring to the FOX News story “Trump tells Fox News DOJ looking into whether his phone calls were monitored” by Gregg Re on 20 June 2019, where we had as follows, to wit:

But, Trump condemned Democrats’ ongoing hearings on collusion and obstruction as an attempt at a “do-over” of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe.

“Take a look at Ukraine,” Trump said.

“How come the FBI didn’t take the server from the DNC?”

“Just think about that one, Sean.”

That was a reference to the DNC’s decision in 2016 to turn over its server to the private security firm Crowdstrike, rather than the FBI, after what prosecutors said was a Russian-led hack.

The Hill’s John Solomon reported earlier Wednesday that the FBI, in search warrant affidavits, relied heavily on leaked Ukrainian financial documents concerning former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort — even though the bureau was repeatedly warned that the documents were untrustworthy and likely fake.

Earlier this year, Ukraine Prosecutor General Yurii Lutsenko opened a probe into the so-called “black ledger” files that led to Manafort’s abrupt departure from the Trump campaign.

The investigation commenced after an unearthed audio recording showed that a senior Ukrainian anticorruption official apparently admitted to leaking Manafort’s financial information in 2016 — including his ties to pro-Russian actors in Ukraine — to benefit Clinton.

A Ukrainian court recently ruled that the Manafort leak amounted to illegal interference in the U.S. election.

A 2017 investigation by Politico found that Ukrainian officials not only publicly sought to undermine Trump by questioning his fitness for office, but also worked behind the scenes to secure a Clinton victory.

end quotes

WHOA, here, people – how come we are not hearing anything about any of that from the congressional intelligence guru smarmy Adam Schiff?

Because it will upset the apple cart of his narrative about Trump and the Russians, which in turn will impact on his ability to fundraise off the passel of lies he has been peddling for at least the last two years, if not longer.

Getting back to that story, we have:

Trump told Hannity the episode was hardly surprising, given that the Hillary Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee (DNC), through the firm Fusion GPS, funded British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s creation of an unverified and largely discredited dossier.

The FBI went on to cite the dossier in secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court applications to surveil former Trump aide Carter Page.

“I think it’s a disgrace,” Trump said.

Numerous issues with the Steele dossier’s reliability have surfaced, including several that were brought to the FBI’s attention before it cited the dossier in its FISA application and subsequent renewals.

Mueller’s report made plain, for example, that former Trump attorney Michael Cohen did not travel to Prague to conspire with Russian hackers seeking to access Democrat files, as the dossier alleged.

Mueller also was unable to substantiate the dossier’s claims that Page had received a large payment relating to the sale of a share of Rosneft, a Russian oil giant.

end quotes

Which takes us back in time to a little more than two years ago to the “Full transcript: FBI Director James Comey testifies on Russian interference in 2016 election – Comey, Rogers testify on alleged Russian interference in U.S. election – Key moments from the House Intelligence Committee hearing with FBI Director James Comey and NSA head Michael Rogers on alleged Russian meddling in U.S. politics” by Washington Post Staff on March 20, 2017, where we had smarmy little Adam spouting off about that same now-discredited Steele dossier, as follows:

SCHIFF: What is striking here is the degree to which the Russians were willing to undertake such an audacious and risky action against the most powerful nation on Earth.

But there is a lot we don’t know.

Most important, we do not yet know whether the Russians have the help of U.S. citizens including people associated with the Trump campaign.

Many of the Trump’s campaign personnel, including the president himself, have ties to Russia and Russian interests.

This is of course no crime.

On the other hand, if the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it aided or abetted the Russians, it would not only be a serious crime, it would also represent one of the most shocking betrayals of democracy in history.

end quotes

One of the most shocking betrayals of democracy in history?

Adam, that is horse**** and hyperbole, and nothing more!

If democracy has been shockingly betrayed, it is because democracy is an unstable form of government in the first place, and for no other reason other than that.

Getting back to smarmy little Adam and the now-discredited Steele dossier, we have:

The issue of U.S. person involvement is only one of the important matters that the chairman and I have agreed to investigate and which is memorialized in the detailed and bipartisan scope of investigation that we have signed.

We’ll also examine whether the intelligence community’s assessment of the Russian operation is supported by the raw intelligence, whether the U.S. government responded properly or missed the opportunity to stop this Russian attack much earlier and whether the leak of information about Michael Flynn or others is indicative of a systemic problem.

Today, most of my Democratic colleagues will be exploring with the witnesses the potential involvement of U.S. persons in the Russian attack on our democracy.

It is not that we feel the other issues are less important; they are very important, but rather because this issue is least understood by the public.

We realize of course that the witnesses may not be able to answer many of the questions in open session.

They may or may not be willing to disclose even whether there is an investigation.

But we hope to present to you directors and the public why we believe this is a matter of such gravity that it demands a thorough investigation not only by us as we intend to do but by the FBI as well.

Let me give you a short preview of what I expect you’ll be asked by our members.

Whether the Russian active measures campaign began as nothing more than an attempt to gather intelligence or was always intended to be more than that, we do not know and is one of the questions we hope to answer.

But we do know this; the months of July and August 2016 appear to have been pivotal.

It was at this time the Russians began using the information they had stolen to help Donald Trump and harm Hillary Clinton.

And so the question is, why?

What was happening in July, August of last year and were U.S. persons involved?

Here are some of the matters drawn from public sources alone since that is all we can discuss in this setting that concern us and we believe should concern all Americans.

In early July, Carter Page, someone candidate Trump identified as one of his national security advisors, travels to Moscow on a trip approved by the Trump campaign.

While in Moscow, he gives a speech critical of the United States and other western countries for what he believes is a hypocritical focus on democratization and efforts to fight corruption.

According to Christopher Steele, a British — a former British intelligence officer, who is reportedly held in high regard by U.S. intelligence, Russian sources tell him that Page has also had a secret meeting with Igor Sechin, CEO of the Russian gas giant, Rosneft.

Sechin is reported to be a former KGB agent and close friend of Putin’s.

According to Steele’s Russian sources, Page is offered brokerage fees by such an on a deal involving a 19 percent share of the company.

According to Reuters, the sale of a 19.5 percent share of Rosneft later takes place with unknown purchasers and unknown brokerage fees.

end quotes

Except we now know today, despite the crap Adam Schiff was spewing two years ago in that March 20, 2017 hearing which served as the basis for the subsequent Mullet Commission, Mueller was unable to substantiate the Steele dossier’s claims that Page had received a large payment relating to the sale of a share of Rosneft, a Russian oil giant, which seems to strongly indicate that back in March of 2017, smarmy little Adam Schiff was feeding we, the American people with falsehoods and lies in his effort to bring down the sitting president of the United States of America.

Shame on you, Adam, for thinking you could get away with lying to us unchallenged.

Paul Plante says :

Yes, this all gets more and more weird by the day.

And the smarmy little Adam Schiff has succeeded in making himself a laughing stock outside of the Beltway with his claims that if Trump does not come to heel when given the command “heel” by Adam Schiff, a mere congressman from Hollywood, California, then Trump is “obstructing justice,” which is horse****.

Somehow, Adam has come to the conclusion, despite all the evidence from our history to the contrary, that as a mere congressman, which is all he is notwithstanding any other titles of royalty he might like to give himself, that Trump as president answers to congressman Adam Schiff, who sees himself as one of Trump’s councilors, which takes us to “Landholder VI” by Oliver Ellsworth in the Connecticut Courant, an early version of the Cape Charles Mirror, on December 10, 1787, as follows:

The President of the United States has no council, etc., says Col. Mason.

His proposed council would have been expensive — they must constantly attend the president, because the president constantly acts.

This council must have been composed of great characters, who could not be kept attending without great salaries, and if their opinions were binding on the president his responsibility would be destroyed — if divided, prevent vigor and dispatch — if not binding, they would be no security.

The states who have had such councils have found them useless, and complain of them as a dead weight.

In others, as in England, the supreme executive advises when and with whom he pleases; if any information is wanted, the heads of the departments who are always at hand can best give it, and from the manner of their appointment will be trustworthy.

Secrecy, vigor, dispatch and responsibility, require that the supreme executive should be one person, and unfettered otherwise than by the laws he is to execute.

end quotes

In our system of government then, smarmy little Adam Schiff is not the overseer of the president.

Too bad he is ignorant of that fact.

One would think that if Adam Schiff was really concerned about the “national interest,” as opposed to his own considerable personal political interests, that he would be leading the effort to get to the bottom of whether Joe Biden was doing some hinky stuff with Ukraine while he was Obama’s vice president, as opposed to leading a massive effort at taxpayer expense to conduct a white-wash and cover-up to protect Joe Biden and the Democrat party.

Paul Plante says :

I heard Adam Schiff on the radio news this morning, and frankly, the dude sounds like he is losing it big time.

What Schiff said that had me thinking he is going bonkers was that the only inference that can be taken from Mr. Kupperman being a no-show at Schiff’s hearing today was that Trump was trying to cover up something criminal!

What horsecrap!

POLITICO caught that action in an article entitled “Schiff warns Trump is inviting impeachment by blocking witnesses – The Intelligence Committee chairman vowed Democrats will not be slowed by legal battles in their march toward impeachment” by Kyle Cheney on 10/28/2019, as follows:

President Donald Trump’s effort to block a former national security aide from testifying in Democrats’ impeachment inquiry is strengthening the case for impeachment based on obstruction of Congress, House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said Monday.

But more significantly, Schiff said Trump’s direction that Kupperman ignore Congress’ subpoena — along with other witnesses the White House has sought to block — has formed “a very powerful case against the president for obstruction, an article of impeachment based on obstruction.”

Schiff also argued that the president is seeking to block Kupperman because he is concerned about a high-level source corroborating damning testimony that Trump pressured Ukraine to open investigations of his political rivals — and condition military aid and a White House visit on bending the European ally to his will.

end quotes

And there I have to say WHOA, Adam, wait a minute – Joe Biden is not Trump’s “political rival.”

Joe Biden has held himself out to the American people as a candidate for our highest office in this land, that of United States president, a position which by OUR Constitution is to take care that the laws, OUR laws, are enforced, and if Joe Biden cannot do that because he is corrupt, or compromised by a foreign power, then we the American people have both a need and a right to now about it.

So that, Adam, is a real cheap and quite shabby excuse for your cover-up and white-wash of Joe Biden that you are conducting here by going after Trump, instead of Joe Biden, that it is wrong for Trump to seek evidence that Joe Biden is corrupt because Joe , in your empty words, is a “political rival,” which takes us back to that POLITICO article as follows:

Schiff’s comments came shortly after Republicans derided the impeachment inquiry as a farce built on hearsay.

“Every single witness who talked to the president, each and every time they’ve said he did nothing wrong, he’s innocent of any charges.” Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) told reporters.

“It’s always people who talked to people who have talked to other people who think that he might have meant this.”

“When you get direct evidence, this president is not only innocent, but he certainly has not done anything impeachable and it’s time we bring this charade to a close.”

end quotes

And that is the latest from Adam Schiff’s “HEAR-SAY GATE SAGA”, where Trump is to be impeached because somebody overheard someone else telling a third persons what a fourth person said they heard from a fifth person about something Trump was said to have either said or done, which is why Trump should be impeached.

Paul Plante says :

“God knows that fools and knaves have voice enough in government already; it is to be hoped these wise prophesiers of evil would not wish to give them a constitutional privilege to send members in proportion to their numbers.”

Those words were posted on December 12, 1787 in the “Cato” Essay in the Country Journal and Advertiser, Poughkeepsie with regard to our House of Representatives, and based on the show the Democrats in that House are giving us today with these endless Trump Impeachment Inquiries and Investigations, we have more of them now, then ever.

With respect to these never-ending hearings, consider the Washington Post article “Democrats unveil procedures for Trump’s impeachment inquiry, rebutting GOP attacks” by Mike DeBonis on 29 October 2019, where we are treated to the following:

House Democrats unveiled new procedures for the impeachment inquiry of President Trump on Tuesday, responding to Republican demands for due process by setting out rules for future public hearings delving into whether Trump should be removed from office.

The resolution backed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) hands the lead role to the House Intelligence Committee and its chairman, Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Calif.), who would have broad latitude to organize extended questioning of potential public witnesses.

end quotes

So, “NANCY NO” Pelosi is keeping Hollywood, California Congressman Adam Schiff in the spotlight, primarily because it is good for Democrat fund-raising efforts to do so, given Adam’s status as a top Democrat fundraiser, with him reporting as of 09/30/2019 that he has raised $25,071,876.

So what exactly is going on here, besides the Democrats still fixin’ to get with it with respect to actually voting to actually impeach Trump as opposed to voting to continue talking about impeaching Trump because they have no cause to do so, and need to keep hunting for one?

According to the Washington Post, which knows these things because the Democrats use them as a media outlet, we have this to consider:

Rules Committee Chairman Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) said Tuesday the resolution “outlines the next steps in this inquiry, including establishing the procedure for public-facing hearings conducted by the Intelligence Committee and the process for transferring evidence to the Judiciary Committee once they are completed.”

“The president’s Republican allies in Congress have tried to hide the president’s conduct, but the American people will now see the facts firsthand,” he said.

end quotes

We’re going to see the facts firsthand?

Really?

And when might that be?

Getting back to the Washington Post:

The drafting of the procedures took place among a tight circle of close Pelosi confidants, leaving rank-and-file lawmakers and even some top Democratic leaders in the dark.

end quotes

HUSH!

SHHHHH!

KEEP IT QUIET!

WE NEED THE SUSPENSE!

And the game goes on and on and on and on and on!

But wait, there is always more to come in this bizarre story, and it is as follows, to wit:

Addressing reporters Tuesday morning, House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer (D-Md.) said he had not yet scheduled a vote on the resolution — contradicting Pelosi, who pledged to hold a vote this week.

“I have not read it yet; the members have not read it yet,” Hoyer said, showing some frustration at a meeting with reporters.

“We’re going to have to consider whether or not it’s ready to go on Thursday.”

“I hope that is the case.”

end quotes

So, from that we can infer that they are still in the stage of fixin’ to get with it, perhaps the penultimate stage of fixing to get with it as opposed to actually getting with it, but then again, the way this show has been going, perhaps not, which takes us back to the Washington Post, as follows:

Pelosi announced plans to vote on the resolution in a letter to Democratic members Monday, and, according to three House aides who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private discussions, she has kept a tight leash on the process of drafting the measure — excluding Hoyer and other leaders.

end quotes

It’s all about politics and timing, people – nothing of substance, just appearance – if we will only give the Democrats a bit more time, they will finally find the dirt on Trump they need to impeach him, and we are just supposed to sit here and be patient, which is horsecrap, and that horse crap brings us to this horse crap from the Washington Post article, to wit:

Democratic leaders have been careful not to characterize the measure as authorizing the impeachment inquiry, something they say has been underway already for weeks without a House vote.

“We have an inquiry looking at whether articles of impeachment are justified by the facts,” Hoyer said.

“We’ve been doing that.”

“We are doing it.”

“We’re going to continue to do it.”

“This is about process as to when we move to out of the investigatory phase, which we’ve been in, into a phase where we have public hearings.”

“That’s what it is.”

“No more.”

“No less.”

end quotes

So, still smoke, people, but so far, no sighting of fire has yet been made, nor is it supposed to be, because this is a silly game, as we can see from the following:

Several Democrats said Tuesday they believed the vote would undermine Republicans, who for weeks have raised objections to the process Democrats have undertaken and have called for a formal vote on launching impeachment proceedings.

“The message this week is going to be: You asked for it, you got it,” said Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.).

Several members who attended a caucus meeting held at the Democratic National Committee Tuesday morning said they were ready to vote to formalize the next step in the impeachment investigation — including some in swing districts where the vote could be a political liability.

“I have no qualms about taking a vote,” said Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.), a freshman running in a district Trump previously won by 7 points.

“We’ve been clearly in an impeachment inquiry, and laying out the plans for the next step, I think, is a helpful thing to do for the American people to understand the parameters of the public hearings.”

Rep. Ron Kind (D-Wis.), a veteran lawmaker whose district voted for Trump by 5 points in 2016, also said he planned to support the measure: “We fully support a thorough investigation and we’re going to continue doing what we’re doing.”

end quotes

So, how the heck many “steps” are there anyway in an impeachment inquiry besides in this case a veritable plethora of them?

Is this a political version of climbing the stairway to heaven step by step by step ad infinitum?

And is this silly show starring Hollywood, California Congressman Adam Schiff ever going to end, or will his witch hunts go on forever?

Paul Plante says :

Good God, but how very tedious and absolutely silly this endless Democrat “impeachment inquiry” bull**** is, and what a surreal show the Democrats are giving us, as they prove on a daily basis what a mistake it was to put those clowns in charge of the House of Representatives, as we can see from the Fox News article “Two House Democrats break ranks with Pelosi on impeachment rules vote” by Tyler Olson on 31 October 2019, to wit:

Two House Democrats broke ranks with their party leadership on Thursday’s highly-contentious vote for a resolution setting the rules for the impeachment inquiry into President Trump.

end quotes

Now, to see just how very stupid this all is, we just need to focus on the phrase “contentious vote for a resolution setting the rules for the impeachment inquiry into President Trump.”

Haven’t they been conducting an impeachment inquiry into Trump since the 2016 presidential election?

Isn’t that what all the FBI investigations were about – getting criminal dirt, or any other kind of dirt on Trump that the Democrats could use to impeach him?

Isn’t that what the Mueller Hearings were all about?

So what the hell are these hearings about then?

Have they found even a shred of evidence of something that is impeachable?

For a glimpse at that answer, let’s go back to the Fox News article as follows:

The resolution passed 232-196 but lacked votes from Reps. Jeff Van Drew, D-N.J., who has long expressed skepticism about impeachment, and Collin Peterson, D-Minn., whose district Trump won by 31 points.

“At the end of the day we’ll have the same president and same candidate and a failed impeachment process, and the only difference would be that the president will have been exonerated of charges,” Van Drew said in a statement to Fox News.

Van Drew said that although he “feels concerned with many of the allegations related to the president,” he doesn’t think it’s enough to warrant Trump’s removal from office.

end quotes

So, there is one Democrat who is thinking straight, anyway.

But what about the rest of them?

Let’s go back to FOX and see what’s up, to wit:

Other Democrats said their support for Thursday’s resolution was not necessarily an indication of how they would vote on possible impeachment articles.

Freshman Rep. Kendra Horn, D-Okla., announced she would vote for the resolution while making clear it was not a vote for impeachment — just to authorize the rules for impeachment hearings.

end quotes

Ah, okay, sure, Kendra – and thanks for making it very clear for all of us who are wondering why the Democrats are wasting our time and tax dollars on this cavalcade of horsecrap what exactly it is that is going on here – you’re not voting to actually impeach Trump; to the contrary, you are voting to get with impeaching Trump at some time in the future based on your premise that if you conduct enough witch hunts and fishing expeditions, you might eventually uncover something of actual substance to impeach Trump with, but in the meantime, it is just a silly political game you are playing, which takes us back to Fox News, as follow:

In a letter to Democratic colleagues Monday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said she was bringing the rules resolution to the floor specifically to take that talking point away from Republicans.

“We are taking this step to eliminate any doubt as to whether the Trump administration may withhold documents, prevent witness testimony, disregard duly authorized subpoenas, or continue obstructing the House of Representatives,” Pelosi said.

end quotes

Obstructing the House of Representatives?

At what?

Obstructing the Democrats in the House of Representatives from reducing the Office of President to a sniveling creature of theirs so that the Office of President is merely an appendage of the House of Representatives to be controlled at all times by the Democrats?

Getting back to Fox News:

Republican representatives, however, have not been satisfied with the move, saying that the impeachment inquiry is already discredited by the secret hearings and bias against Trump from Democrats.

“It’s clear Pelosi needs to declare a mistrial,” Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., said Tuesday as he and Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, accused House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., of stopping a witness from answering certain Republican questions during a deposition.

“This has been a tainted process from the start.”

“What happened today confirms even worse just how poorly Adam Schiff is handling this process, denying the ability for Republicans to even ask basic questions that are critical to the heart of whether or not a President of the United States is impeached.”

Rep. Ross Spano, R-Fla., also criticized the resolution, noting Republicans will be unable to subpoena witnesses without the approval of Schiff, echoing a criticism other Republicans have leveled about the impeachment rules resolution released Tuesday.

end quotes

So, kiss due process of law good-bye, people of America, when a little twerp like the smarmy and unctuous Adam Schiff, Congressman of Hollywood, California can use his position as a committee chairman to so pervert process by impeding and obstructing witness testimony that it seems as if we are no longer living in the United States of America under rule of law, but have instead reverted to the status of a third-world banana republic ****hole.

Paul Plante says :

This ABSURD FARCE that this zealot Democrat from Hollywood, California Adam Schiff is staging down in Washington, D.C., especially yesterday with that drama queen he had on his STUPID STAGE who was weeping and wailing about “smear campaigns” against her, BOO HOO HOO, when the fact of the matter was that she served at the pleasure of Trump who didn’t need some “cause” based on a “smear campaign” to remove her from her position, all he needed to do was say, “YOU’RE GONE,” is becoming positively disgusting, and I say that as an American citizen who doesn’t belong to either of those two contending parties down there in that foetid, pestilential swamp of Washington. D.C., which has become the world capital of total insanity where this smarmy and unctuous Hollywood, California Democrat Adam Schiff now thinks that the president of the United States of America serves at his pleasure, which thought on his part is in turn causing a constitutional crisis in this nation of ours, a constitutional crisis that was in fact anticipated by the founders, who thought they had put in place an enduring system which should have been robust enough to avert that crisis, as we can clearly see from a reading of FEDERALIST No. 10, “The Union as a Safeguard Against Domestic Faction and Insurrection,” which it clearly has failed to be as this smarmy and unctuous zealot Adam Schiff is now proving with his STUPID SHOW or POLITICAL SOAP OPERA in Washington with a seemingly endless array of victims coming to testify under oath in public about being victims, and how bad that makes them feel inside, instead of feeling all warm and squishy as it should be here in America, to the People of the State of New York from the New York Packet by James Madison on Friday, November 23, 1787.

And with respect to Ukraine being a corrupt ****hole that this smarmy and unctuous Adam Schiff tells us our national security now depends on, which itself is an absurd and surreal proposition, in a March 2019 speech to the Ukraine Crisis Media Center, this same Marie Yovanovitch who is now whining to Schiff about being a “victim,” because today, America is in love with people who are victims and who whine in public about it, said that the Ukrainian government was not making sufficient progress to combat corruption, saying: “It is increasingly clear that Ukraine’s once-in-a-generation opportunity for change has not yet resulted in the anti-corruption or rule of law reforms that Ukrainians expect or deserve.”

So what the **** are we doing with that corrupt crowd in a nation where corruption is a way of life as an “ally” to protect our national security?

Have we fallen so low under Obama that we need a corrupt nation like Ukraine to protect us?

And why are we sending them any kind of military aid at all when just eight (8) months ago, Marie Yovanovitch was making it clear that the place was a corrupt ****hole where rule of law was a myth?

What the hell are we doing in bed with that corrupt crowd over there, Adam, which takes us to Federalist No. 10, as follows:

AMONG the numerous advantages promised by a well constructed Union, none deserves to be more accurately developed than its tendency to break and control the violence of faction.

end quotes

While that may in fact be true in theory, sadly for us American citizens today appalled at this sick spectacle this zealot Adam Schiff is staging in Washington in his efforts to destroy Donald Trump, our Union was not constructed near well enough to break the violence of faction, as we watch the violence of the Democrat faction at work in Washington right now with these INQUISITORIAL WITCH HUNTS being conducted by the Hollywood Congressman who sees himself as MASTER OF THE KNOWN WORLD AND BEYOND, which again takes us back to Jemmy Madison and Federalist No. 10, as follows:

The friend of popular governments never finds himself so much alarmed for their character and fate, as when he contemplates their propensity to this dangerous vice.

He will not fail, therefore, to set a due value on any plan which, without violating the principles to which he is attached, provides a proper cure for it.

The instability, injustice, and confusion introduced into the public councils, have, in truth, been the mortal diseases under which popular governments have everywhere perished.

end quotes

And there is what we are seeing today occurring in our Republic with these Schiff Witch Hunts: instability, injustice, and confusion are being introduced into OUR public councils by Adam Schiff, and in truth, he and they represent the mortal diseases under which our federal government as we now know it may well perish, to be replaced by a DICTATORSHIP OF THE DEMOCRATS, which again takes us back to Federalist No. 10, as follows:

Complaints are everywhere heard from our most considerate and virtuous citizens, equally the friends of public and private faith, and of public and personal liberty, that our governments are too unstable, that the public good is disregarded in the conflicts of rival parties, and that measures are too often decided, not according to the rules of justice and the rights of the minor party, but by the superior force of an interested and overbearing majority.

end quotes

And amen to that, Jemmy, dude – right on, because that is where we are right now in this country thanks to Adam Schiff – the public good is being totally disregarded in this conflict between the ravening Democrats and Trump over control of the office of the executive, which Adam Schiff is claiming for himself, and that as a result, measures are being decided by Schiff and the Democrats, not according to the rules of justice but by the superior force of an interested and overbearing majority in the House of Representatives.

Getting back to Federalist No. 10:

By a faction, I understand a number of citizens, whether amounting to a majority or a minority of the whole, who are united and actuated by some common impulse of passion, or of interest, adversed to the rights of other citizens, or to the permanent and aggregate interests of the community.

end quotes

Today, that is the CULT known as the Democrat party under its charismatic cult leader Nancy Pelosi who are united and actuated by some common impulse of passion, possibly insanity itself, adversed to the rights of us other citizens in this nation, and to the permanent and aggregate interests of the community who do not belong to the Cult of Democrats.

Getting back once again to Federalist No. 10, Jemmy Madison continued as follows:

The latent causes of faction are thus sown in the nature of man; and we see them everywhere brought into different degrees of activity, according to the different circumstances of civil society.

A zeal for different opinions concerning religion, concerning government, and many other points, as well of speculation as of practice; an attachment to different leaders ambitiously contending for pre-eminence and power; or to persons of other descriptions whose fortunes have been interesting to the human passions, have, in turn, divided mankind into parties, inflamed them with mutual animosity, and rendered them much more disposed to vex and oppress each other than to co-operate for their common good.

So strong is this propensity of mankind to fall into mutual animosities, that where no substantial occasion presents itself, the most frivolous and fanciful distinctions have been sufficient to kindle their unfriendly passions and excite their most violent conflicts.

end quotes

You would think with that last sentence that Jemmy was writing those words today as we view the violent passions of the ravening Democrats on display in Washington because Trump is president and Hillary Clinton is not – that, people, is the frivolous and fanciful distinction that has been sufficient in our times today to kindle the unfriendly passions of these Democrats to excite if they can the most violent conflicts between their cult members and the rest of us here in America who do not drink Democrat Kool-Aid.

And that is the latest from this sick spectacle raging in Washington, D.C. today, thanks to Adam Schiff and the Democrat cult here in America.

And now we pause for a commercial break and station identification, so if you need a sandwich or some other refreshments, now is the time to run to the concession stand and we will be right back after these words from our sponsors.
