THE CAPE CHARLES MIRROR JULY 4, 2021 AT 5:57 PM

Paul Plante says:

It is indeed interesting that as we LOYAL AMERICANS who don’t drink Democrat KOOL-AID, or Republican KOOL-AID, “celebrate,” if that is the correct word for it, anymore, INDEPENDENCE FROM THE TYRANNY OF GEORGE III OF ENGLAND DAY, commonly called the Fourth of July, as if we were celebrating a calendar day, as opposed to a significant day in this nation’s political history, like it or not, and many don’t, as we clearly see from an article in the feminist website Jezebel (an impudent, shameless, or morally unrestrained woman according to Merriam-Webster) entitled “I’m Sorry but Biden’s Whole ‘Independence From the Virus’ Thing Is So Corny” by Harron Walker on 3 July 2021, where the author stated “(S)econd and most importantly, the Fourth of July is famously one of the worst holidays, (After Flag Day, of course, whatever the hell that is.)” and “(T)rying to fold the government’s coronavirus response into the nationalist mythologies of a country built on genocide and slave labor? The loudest buzzer noise I can summon!!,” that we are faced with a TYRANNY (cruel, unreasonable, or arbitrary use of power or control) from within in the form of this “select House committee that will investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol” that was put together by the DEMOCRAT TYRANT (an absolute ruler who is unrestrained by law) Nancy Pelosi, the San Francisco congresswoman who rules her “People’s House” with an iron fist, as befits a Stalin-esque type of DESPOT.

First of all, if one actually looks up the meaning of the word “bipartisan,” it is taken to mean “involving the agreement or cooperation of two political parties that usually oppose each other’s policies,” or as Wikipedia has it, “(B)ipartisanship, sometimes referred to as nonpartisanship, is a political situation, usually in the context of a two-party system in which opposing political parties find common ground through compromise,” the PELOSI-ite FARCE is hardly “bipartisan,” at all, unless one wants to stretch that definition to the point of where it means nothing at all, as WE, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE clearly see from a CNBC article entitled “Pelosi names 8 members of Jan. 6 committee, including Republican Liz Cheney, to probe pro-Trump riot” by Jacob Pramuk on 1 July 2021, as follows:

The panel’s formation comes as Democrats and Republicans splinter over how much more Congress needs to do to investigate what led to the attack on the Capitol, which interrupted the transfer of power.

Many GOP lawmakers — who see highlighting Trump’s role in the riot as a possible liability ahead of next year’s midterm elections — have contended a new investigation would duplicate existing efforts from the Justice Department and standing congressional committees.

Underscoring the Republican resistance to starting another probe, McCarthy threatened to revoke GOP representatives’ committee seats if they accepted an appointment to the panel from Pelosi, according to NBC News.

end quotes

So much for that BULL**** that this McCarthy-ite FARCE is bipartisan.

And going back to that CNBC article, we have this Pelosi-ite BULL**** to contend wit, to wit:

KEY POINTS

* House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced her picks for the select House committee that will investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol.

end quotes

And there is where the DEMOCRAT POLITICAL BULL**** begins, because there was NO INSURRECTION anywhere in the United States on 6 January 2021, and there certainly was not an insurrection at the Capitol on that day or any other day for that matter, where an “insurrection” is defined as “the act or an instance of revolting esp. violently against civil or political authority or against an established government,” and 18 U.S. Code § 2383 – Rebellion or insurrection, states in clear and unambiguous language that one would think the TYRANT Nancy Pelosi would be able to comprehend or understand, “(W)hoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years,” which statutory language raises the important legal question of exactly what “authority of the United States or the laws thereof” were “rebelled” against on 6 January 2021.

And the only answer to that question is NO authority of the United States or the laws thereof were “rebelled” against on 6 January 2021.

So why is the DEMOCRAT DESPOT Nancy Pelosi setting up what she calls a “select committee,” which is to say a highly partisan committee selected by herself to do her bidding, to investigate something that never happened?

And if there was anyone engaged in a rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, it would have to be Nancy Pelosi herself, who willfully subverted the electoral vote count process on 3 January 2021, which thought takes us first to a Business Insider article entitled “Senate aides rescued boxes containing the electoral votes as a mob besieged the Capitol. Without them, Congress may not have been able to affirm Biden’s win as quickly” by Aylin Woodward on Jan 7, 2021, where we have, to wit:

Pro-Trump rioters breached the US Capitol on Wednesday, forcing members of Congress to evacuate the building at 2:30 p.m. local time.

end quotes

Which brings us back to a USA TODAY article entitled “Timeline: How a Trump mob stormed the US Capitol, forcing Washington into lockdown” by George Petras, Janet Loehrke, Ramon Padilla, Javier Zarracina and Jennifer Borresen on Jan. 15, 2021, where we find this following entry, to wit:

1:46 p.m.

Rep. Elaine Luria, D-Va., tweets she is being evacuated after reports of a pipe bomb outside.

“Supporters of the President are trying to force their way into the Capitol and I can hear what sounds like multiple gunshots.”

end quotes

So if members of Congress were forced to evacuate the building at 2:30 p.m. local time, why was congresswoman Luria, herself appointed a member of this McCarthy-ite POLITICAL FARCE, TWEETING at 1:46 p.m., FORTY-FOUR (44) minutes earlier that she was being evacuated, and to whom was she TWEETING that message, and WHY was she TWEETING it?

Getting back to the Business Insider story, we have:

Congress was in the middle of a congressional joint session to count electoral votes from the 2020 presidential election.

Federal law dictates that sealed certificates of each state’s electoral votes — which were cast December 14 — are transported to the Congressional chamber in ceremonial, 18-inch by 10-inch mahogany boxes lined with leather.

end quotes

And stop right there, people and focus on what FEDERAL LAW dictates, to wit:

Federal law dictates that sealed certificates of each state’s electoral votes are transported to the Congressional chamber in ceremonial, 18-inch by 10-inch mahogany boxes lined with leather, which thought then takes us in turn to an article in THE HILL for a literal storm of pure BULL**** entitled “Pelosi sets up call on election challenge: ‘No situation matches Trump presidency’” by Joseph Choi on 01/03/21, where we had as follows:

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) in a Sunday letter told her Democratic colleagues they would discuss the process for expected challenges to the Electoral College results from House Republicans during a call on Monday.

“Over the years, we have experienced many challenges in the House, but no situation matches the Trump presidency and the Trump disrespect for the will of the people,” Pelosi wrote in her letter.

Pelosi outlined a plan for the Democratic lawmakers as they prepare to certify the Electoral College votes this week.

More than 100 House Republicans are expected to challenge the results of the election in various battleground states, and a dozen Senate Republicans have vowed to do so.

She said the result would end with President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris being “officially declared the next President and Vice President of the United States,” but acknowledged this declaration might have to take place in “the middle of the night.”

end quotes

Now, think about, people, the electoral college votes are in sealed mahogany boxes that are to be opened on 6 January 2021, and yet, THREE (3) days early, before the boxes have even been opened, which there is a process for according to OUR LAWS Nancy Pelosi is not free to disregard, although she did, anyway, Nancy Pelosi already knew the results!

That is what needs to be investigated, which takes us back to the Business Insider article, to wit:

As they evacuated, Congressional aides grabbed the boxes, rescuing them from possible harm or vandalism.

“If our capable floor staff hadn’t grabbed them, they would have been burned by the mob,” Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon tweeted.

Some of those aides were part of Senate parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough’s staff, according to a pool report compiled by Capitol Hill reporters.

MacDonough’s office, which is responsible for interpreting Congressional rules, has not responded to Insider’s request for further comment.

The votes in these boxes were a crucial piece in the final step, under federal law, to certify the 2020 presidential election and reaffirm the winner.

Both Democrat and Republican members of the House of Representatives and Senate needed to read aloud the certificates inside the boxes that recorded each state’s electoral votes.

Congress then needed to count those votes before Vice President Mike Pence could confirm President-elect Joe Biden as the winner of the election.

end quotes

But Nancy Pelosi had already declared Joe Biden the winner THREE (3) days earlier, so what is up with that, and why isn’t that being questioned?

Getting back to that article, it continues, thusly:

One video shows how the Senate Parliamentarian’s office had been ransacked after extremists besieged the Capitol.

Papers and files were strewn across furniture and the floor, possibly suggesting the mob had been searching for the boxes containing the votes needed to certify Biden’s win.

Those ceremonial wooden boxes do not contain the only copy of each state’s electoral vote count, so had they been left behind, the certification process could have preceded, but perhaps not as quickly.

But, given the boxes containing the physical copies of the certificates is safe and sound, Congress had one less barrier to overcome in order to finish the certification process early Thursday morning.

Lawmakers returned to the Congressional chambers, boxes in hand, around 8 p.m. local time to finish the joint session.

Lingering objections to the results by some Republicans were overruled, and Congress finished the certification process and vote count eight hours later.

They concluded Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris won the 2020 election with 306 Electoral College votes.

end quotes

So, where was the insurrection, people?

And that answer is there wasn’t one.

So what then is the real purpose of this Pelosi-ite select committee?

Stay tuned!

Paul Plante says:

And before we go further into this INCIPIENT DEMOCRAT DESPOTISM descending down on America the way the Iron Curtain of the Communists descended down in Europe in the 1950’s, let us go back to the CNBC article entitled “Pelosi names 8 members of Jan. 6 committee, including Republican Liz Cheney, to probe pro-Trump riot” by Jacob Pramuk on 1 July 2021, where we have this bull**** to debunk, to wit:

The panel’s formation comes as Democrats and Republicans splinter over how much more Congress needs to do to investigate what led to the attack on the Capitol, which interrupted the transfer of power.

end quotes

Interrupted the transfer of power?

That’s pure bull****, because according to the 20th Amendment to the Constitution, adopted in 1933, the transfer of power takes place on 20 January, not 6 January.

So why are the Democrats lying to us like we are all more stupid than they are?

And let us go back to the article in THE HILL entitled “Pelosi sets up call on election challenge: ‘No situation matches Trump presidency’” by Joseph Choi on 01/03/21, where we had as follows:

She said the result would end with President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris being “officially declared the next President and Vice President of the United States,” but acknowledged this declaration might have to take place in “the middle of the night.”

end quotes

And then the Business Insider article entitled “Senate aides rescued boxes containing the electoral votes as a mob besieged the Capitol. Without them, Congress may not have been able to affirm Biden’s win as quickly” by Aylin Woodward on Jan 7, 2021, where we have, to wit:

Lawmakers returned to the Congressional chambers, boxes in hand, around 8 p.m. local time to finish the joint session.

Lingering objections to the results by some Republicans were overruled, and Congress finished the certification process and vote count eight hours later.

They concluded Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris won the 2020 election with 306 Electoral College votes.

end quotes

So, on 6 January 2021, exactly what Nancy Pelosi predicted would happen three (3) days before on 3 January 2021, is what happened – the result ended with President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris being officially declared the next President and Vice President of the United States in the middle of the night, like Nancy had it all scripted well in advance, and that takes us back to 6 November 2020, and a POLITICO story entitled “Pelosi confident Biden will win presidency, ‘This morning, it is clear that the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris ticket will win the White House,’ the speaker says” by Sarah Ferris, to wit:

Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday that Vice President Joe Biden would win the White House, repeatedly calling him “president-elect” as she discussed the Democratic Party’s agenda next year.

“This morning, it is clear that the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris ticket will win the White House,” Pelosi said in her first press briefing since the Nov. 3 election.

Pelosi spoke to reporters in the Capitol as thousands of votes were still being counted in battleground states.

Biden gained the lead Friday morning in Pennsylvania, potentially clinching his path to victory, though Trump has made clear he will pursue legal challenges.

Pelosi said the outcome was “imminent,” and could be declared “momentarily.”

“It’s a happy day for our country,” Pelosi said, adding: “President-elect Biden has a strong mandate to lead.”

end quotes

So what are we seeing here, people?

Extreme bias, is it not?

And consider that this so-called “select committee” is in reality a JURY, which should be impartial, but it is not, which means that the members of it, especially Elaine Luria and the smarmy Adam Schiff and Jamie Raskin, should all be challenged for cause, which is a challenge that aims to disqualify a potential juror for some stated reason, typically bias, prejudice, or prior knowledge that would prevent impartial evaluation of the evidence presented in court.

But that is not going to happen, and those members of this “select committee” were picked by the DEMOCRAT DESPOT Nancy Pelosi precisely because they are biased and prejudiced, and thus guaranteed to produce the results that the DEMOCRAT DESPOT Nancy Pelosi has predetermined she wants produced!

McCarthy-ism all over again, except Democrat style this time around, and stay tuned, because this Democrat ****-show is just getting started.

THE CAPE CHARLES MIRROR JULY 6, 2021 AT 6:09 PM

Paul Plante says:

And let me make it incandescently clear in here that I am not a Conservative, nor am I a Republican, and I certainly am not and never have been any kind of supporter or cheerleader for Donald Trump.

To the contrary, I am a LOYAL AMERICAN CITIZEN who adheres to the dictum of Charles-Louis de Secondat, Baron de La Brède et de Montesquieu (18 January 1689 – 10 February 1755), generally referred to as simply Montesquieu, a French judge, man of letters, historian, and political philosopher known as the principal source of the theory of separation of powers, which is implemented in our Constitution, as well as being known for doing more than any other author to secure the place of the word “despotism” in the political lexicon, which word very much applies to this Pelosi-ite “select House committee that will investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol,” that “in a free state every man who is supposed to be a free agent, ought to be concerned in his own government, which is the perspective that my comments on this “select House committee that will investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol” come from, and what I am doing in here in the face of this blatant DEMOCRAT BULL**** inimical (tending to obstruct or harm; unfriendly; hostile) to our LIBERTIES is standing up for RULE OF LAW, which is the restriction of the arbitrary exercise of power by TYRANTS like DEMOCRAT Nancy Pelosi by subordinating it to well-defined and established laws, or the mechanism, process, institution, practice, or norm that supports the equality of all citizens before the law, secures a nonarbitrary form of government, and more generally prevents the arbitrary use of power by DESPOTIC TYRANTS like Nancy Pelosi who is arrogating (take or claim something without justification) unto herself powers and duties reserved by law to a GRAND JURY, the function of which is to determine whether the person being investigated by the government shall be tried for a serious federal crime alleged to have been committed within the district where it sits, and in all these cases, the grand jury must hear evidence before taking action.”

Simply stated, in the United States of America, assuming RULE OF LAW as opposed to rule of Pelosi, insurrection is a CRIME, which thought takes us back to a CNBC story entitled “Trump becomes first president to be impeached twice, as bipartisan majority charges him with inciting Capitol riot” by Jacob Pramuk on Jan. 13, 2021, where we have the following essential background to this story, as follows:

President Donald Trump, a man hyperaware of his achievements and place in history, added a first to his record on Wednesday.

A week before he will leave office, Trump became the first president impeached by the House twice.

The chamber charged him with high crimes and misdemeanors for inciting an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week.

end quotes

Now, that was the prerogative (a right or privilege exclusive to a particular individual or class) of Pelosi’s “People’s House” to do according to OUR Constitution, charge Trump, who the Democrats hate with a venomous (full of malice or spite) passion, with anything under the sun they could possibly want to charge him with, no evidence of anything being required, because these are DEMOCRATS, and DEMOCRATS are guided by their feelings and passions, not RULE OF LAW.

And so they chose to charge Trump with a serious crime, that being INSURRECTION, which would bar Trump from ever holding office again, the goal of the DEMOCRATS who want absolute control of government in America – a DEMOCRAT PARTY DESPOTISM.

And after charging Trump with a crime, the DEMOCRATS, read, Jamie Raskin, one of the members of this KANGAROO COURT, FAILD TO PREVAIL in the Senate trial, and not only did he fail to prove Trump committed a crime, he totally failed to prove that a crime had even been committed, that crime being the “insurrection” that never happened, and so, this is OBSCENE (offensive to moral principles; repugnant) having Jamie Raskin on this “select” committee, because he is biased, prejudiced, and he has to defend his failure to convict Trump and that would prevent an impartial evaluation of the evidence presented to this “select” committee, the members of which have been selected by the DESPOTIC TYRANT Nancy Pelosi because they are politically reliable and will do her bidding in this matter, which takes us back to CNBC as follows:

The president’s behavior in the 13 months since the first impeachment has left House Democrats making a more clear-cut case than the first time around.

end quotes

AND STILL THEY FAILED, BECAUSE THERE WAS NO INSURRECTION!

So what these nefarious ( wicked or criminal, as in “the nefarious activities of the organized-crime syndicates”) DEMOCRATS are doing is simply saying that because they IMPEACHED Trump for insurrection, then it follows that because they said it, there had to be one, and so, they don’t need to prove it, and as we can see from the NBC News story “Trump could be called to testify before House Jan. 6 panel, Clyburn says” by Teaganne Finn on July 4, 2021, the sleazy (sordid, corrupt) DEMOCRATS plan to put Trump on trial in a DEMOCRAT KANGAROO COURT (an unofficial court held by a group of people in order to try someone regarded, especially without good evidence, as guilty of a crime or misdemeanor) for something that never happened, because to date, NO GRAND JURY has issued a finding of INSURRECTION and NO PERSON has been indicted by the Justice Department under Joe Biden for Insurrection, and the DEMOCRATS, having had every opportunity to have their impeachment charges brought before a GRAND JURY for an indictment of Trump, despite the Senate acquittal, have completely and totally failed to do so, to wit:

WASHINGTON — House Majority Whip James Clyburn says “if it comes to that” the select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack will ask former President Donald Trump to testify, but would prefer not to call on a former president.

“They should go wherever the facts lead,” the South Carolina Democrat told CNN’s “State of the Union.”

“I would not want to see a former president testify in such a situation as this, but if that’s what it takes in order to get to the bottom of this.”

The House voted 222-190 on Wednesday to establish the committee to probe the attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., who serves as chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, will chair the select committee, along with several other democrats and lone Republican, Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming.

end quotes

And that reference to Liz Cheney, who also should not be on this committee because of bias and animus and prejudice, takes us back to the CNBC story, to wit:

The four-page article of impeachment the chamber was set to approve on Wednesday argues Trump fed his supporters months of false claims that widespread fraud cost him the 2020 election, then urged them to contest the results before they marched to the Capitol and disrupted Congress’ count of President-elect Joe Biden’s win.

end quotes

That, however, even if proven true, does not constitute evidence of an insurrection, and if the Democrats thought it did, then after the Senate vote to acquit Trump, those charges should have been laid before a GRAND JURY for them to decide if a crime had actually been committed, and what the Democrats are doing here by reinstating the insurrection charges is making themselves into an arbitrary judge and jury usurping the functions of the GRAND JURY which should have heard these charges of insurrection before this “select” committee was ever formed, which again takes us back to CNBC, as follows:

“He threatened the integrity of the democratic system, interfered with the peaceful transition of power, and imperiled a coequal branch of Government.”

“He thereby betrayed his trust as President, to manifest injury of the people of the United States,” the House’s charging document reads.

end quotes

AND THEY FAILED TO PPROVE ANY OF THAT CRAP IN THE SENATE TRIAL!

And now they are bringing that political horse**** back around as if those charges had already been proven true, thus justifying a further investigation by the house.

Which is FOUL PLAY!

Getting back to the hatred the snarling, snapping, ravening DEMOCRATS have for Trump, which drives them into a foam-at-the-mouth rage and has them doing everything in their power to bring down Trump, because of hatred, the CNBC story continues as follows:

After the insurrection that killed at least five people, including a Capitol Police officer, Democrats have argued allowing Trump to serve out his term both lets him dodge consequences and raises the prospect of more violence before Biden’s inauguration.

Still, Congress may not have enough time to push the president out of office before next week — even if the now GOP-held Senate chooses to convict him.

Democrats urged Vice President Mike Pence and the Cabinet to start the faster process of removing Trump through the 25th Amendment.

Pence refused, arguing in a letter Tuesday to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., that the move is not “in the best interest of our Nation or consistent with our Constitution.”

Pelosi opened debate on the House floor and argued the country cannot risk leaving the president in power.

“He must go.”

“He is a clear and present danger to the nation we all love,” she said.

Though a handful of Republicans said they would vote to impeach Trump, the vast majority of GOP representatives opposed the effort.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., said Wednesday that Trump “bears responsibility” for the riot but called impeachment “a mistake” without an investigation or hearings.

“A vote to impeach will further divide the nation.”

“A vote to impeach will further fan the flames of partisan division,” he said, calling for a resolution to censure Trump.

Once the House sends the impeachment article to the Senate, the upper chamber has to quickly start a trial.

It then would vote on whether to convict Trump.

The House plans to send the article across the Capitol immediately, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., told NBC News on Wednesday.

The Senate as of now plans to reconvene on Jan. 19.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has argued Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., can use emergency powers to bring the chamber back sooner.

A spokesman for McConnell confirmed Wednesday that the Senate won’t be back until Jan. 19, which means that an impeachment trial would likely drag into the early days of Biden’s term.

While the Senate may not have enough time to remove the president from office, it can stop him from becoming president again in 2025.

He could also lose perks given to former presidents.

In making the case for Trump’s conviction in the Senate, Pelosi called a vote in the upper chamber a “constitutional remedy that will ensure that the republic will be safe from this man who is so resolutely determined to tear down the things that we hold dear and that hold us together.”

The first time the House impeached Trump, only one congressional Republican — Mitt Romney of Utah — joined Democrats in trying to remove the president.

The Capitol insurrection made more GOP lawmakers willing to boot their party’s president from office.

The GOP lawmakers who said they would vote to charge Trump on Wednesday include Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, the third-ranking member of the GOP caucus.

“There has never been a greater betrayal by a President of the United States of his office and his oath to the Constitution,” she said in a statement Tuesday of Trump’s behavior before and after the attack.

end quotes

And there is more bias and prejudice and hatred coming onto this “select” committee in the person of this Liz Cheney, which is why the TYRANNICAL DEMOCRAT DESPOT Nancy Pelosi selected Liz Cheney to be a member of this ‘select” committee, which is nothing more than a Pelosi-ite KANGAROO COURT.

But again, stay tuned, because this story has legs and it is just getting going.

THE CAPE CHARLES MIRROR JULY 7, 2021 AT 5:49 PM

Paul Plante says:

In the political essay titled “A Democratic Federalist” published two hundred thirty-four (234) years ago now on 26 Nov. 1787, the author stated thusly:

This is a most enlightened time, but more especially so in regard to matters of government.

The divine right of kings, the force of ecclesiastical obligations in civil affairs, and many other gross errors, under which our forefathers have lain in darker ages of the world, are now done away.

end quotes

Two hundred thirty-four (234) years later, in 2021, under the rule of the TYRANNICAL DESPOT DEMOCRAT Nancy Pelosi, the San Francisco congresswoman who bought for herself the position of speaker of the house in our national government, this has become a time of incredible benighted (in a state of pitiful or contemptible intellectual or moral ignorance) ignorance, not enlightenment, which thought reminds me of these words of Joseph Story (September 18, 1779 – September 10, 1845), an American lawyer and jurist who served on the Supreme Court of the United States from 1812 to 1845, in Chapter 45 of his Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States published in 1833, to wit:

The past is secure.

It is unalterable.

The seal of eternity is upon it.

The wisdom which it has displayed and the blessings which it has bestowed, cannot be obscured; neither can they be debased by human folly or human infirmity.

The future is that which may well awaken the most earnest solicitude, both for the virtue and the permanence of our republic.

The fate of other republics — their rise, their progress, their decline, and their fall — are written but too legibly on the pages of history, if indeed they were not continually before us in the startling fragments of their ruins.

They have perished, and perished by their own hands.

Prosperity has enervated them, corruption has debased them, and a venal populace has consummated their destruction.

end quotes

And there I would say that he is talking about us in this sorry divided nation at war with itself that we find ourselves in today.

With respect to this thread and this Pelosi-ite “selected committee” of hers, going back to the political essay “A Democratic Federalist” from 26 Nov. 1787, we find as follows, to wit:

The power of impeachment, vested in our federal Representatives, and the right to hear those cases, which is vested in the Senate, can produce no punishment in person or property, even on conviction.

Their whole judicial power lies within a narrow compass.

They can take no cognizance of a private citizen and can only declare any dangerous public officer no longer worthy to serve his country.

To punish him for his crimes, in body or estate, is not within their constitutional powers.

They must consign him to a jury and a court, with whom the deprivation of his office is to be no proof of guilt.

end quotes

That, people is RULE OF LAW as it was conceived to be at the beginnings of this nation’s political history.

The Democrats in Nancy Pelosi’s “People’s House” charged Trump with the serious crime of INSURRECTION in their second FAILED IMPEACHMENT, and now they are trying to do an end run around RULE OF LAW, by not first submitting those charges to a GRAND JURY, to get an indictment of Trump.

Coming forward in time, in an August 18, 2000 Memorandum Opinion for the Attorney General entitled “Whether a Former President May Be Indicted and Tried for the Same Offenses for Which He was Impeached by the House and Acquitted by the Senate,” the Attorney General concluded, as did the Democratic Federalist in 26 Nov. 1787 that the Constitution permits a former President to be indicted and tried for the same offenses for which he was impeached by the House of Representatives and acquitted by the Senate, to wit:

IV. Conclusion

We conclude that the Constitution permits a former President to be criminally prosecuted for the same offenses for which he was impeached by the House and acquitted by the Senate while in office.

RANDOLPH D. MOSS
Assistant Attorney General
Office of Legal Counsel

end quotes

And pay attention to this specific language from that Report that the Constitution permits a former President to be indicted and tried for the same offenses for which he was impeached by the House of Representatives and acquitted by the Senate, where the key word is “indicted,” which word means “to charge with a crime by the finding or presentment of a jury (such as a grand jury) in due form of law.”

So what game is Nancy Pelosi up to here with this selected committee of hers that she says is going to investigate an INSURRECTION on January 6, 2021, which never happened, because there is NO PROOF of an insurrection as found by a GRAND JURY?

Which thought takes us back to the CNBC article entitled “Pelosi names 8 members of Jan. 6 committee, including Republican Liz Cheney, to probe pro-Trump riot” by Jacob Pramuk on 1 July 2021, where we have as follows:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday named members of the select committee that will investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, including Republican Rep. Liz Cheney.

And that, people, people, is Nancy Pelosi blatantly pushing THE BIG LIE, because there was no INURRECTION on 6 January 2021, and Nancy Pelosi saying there was one, and appointing a hand-picked panel to do an investigation does in no way create an INSURRECTION, because Nancy Pelosi is not a JUDGE to make such a decision, which is outside of her authority, jurisdiction and discretion!

Getting back to CNBC, it continues thusly:

Every lawmaker Pelosi chose is a Democrat except for Cheney, who was one of two GOP representatives who voted to create the committee.

She was also one of 10 Republicans who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump for inciting an insurrection after a mob of his supporters stormed the Capitol while Congress counted President Joe Biden’s electoral victory.

end quotes

So, okay, people – follow this along because this is where it gets interesting – despite having no proof or evidence of an INSURRECTION anywhere in the United States in the year 2021, congressperson Liz Cheney, acting in her capacity as a congressperson, voted to impeach Trump for the criminal charge of INCITING AN INSURRECTION, and let us be clear here that impeachment is analogous to an indictment.

According to the Chapter 27, Impeachment, of the official House practice manual, we LOYAL AMERICAN CITIZENS who do not drink toxic and poisonous Pelosi-ite KOOL-AID, have as follows on the subject of an impeachment being the analog of an indictment, to wit:

A. Generally

§ 1. In General; House and Senate Functions

Impeachment is a constitutional remedy to address serious offenses against the system of government.

It is the first step in a remedial process — that of removal from public office and possible disqualification from holding further office.

The purpose of impeachment is not punishment; rather, its function is primarily to maintain constitutional government.

An impeachment is instituted by a written accusation, called an ‘‘Article of Impeachment,’’ which states the offense charged.

The articles serve a purpose similar to that of an indictment in an ordinary criminal proceeding.

The House votes to ‘‘impeach’’ in the constitutional sense when it adopts an impeachment resolution and accompanying articles.

The Senate then conducts a trial on these articles and either convicts by two-thirds vote or acquits the ‘‘impeached’’ Federal official.

end quotes

So, Liz Cheney voted to accuse Trump of a serious crime, which is to say, Liz Cheney INDICTED Trump for the criminal charge of INCITING A RIOT.

AND THEN SHE FAILED TO PREVAIL!

So what is she doing back on this Pelosi-ite KANGAROO COURT getting set to waste even more of our government resources by conducting yet another DEMOCRAT WITCH HUNT as these out-of-control DEMOCRATS have been doing since Hillary Clinton was defeated by Trump back in 2016?

Getting back to CNBC, we have:

“It is imperative that we find the truth of that day and ensure that such an assault on our Capitol and Democracy cannot ever again happen,” Pelosi said in a statement Thursday.

Cheney said she was honored to be appointed to the committee.

“What happened on January 6th can never happen again,” the lawmaker said in a statement.

“Those who are responsible for the attack need to be held accountable and this select committee will fulfill that responsibility in a professional, expeditious, and non-partisan manner.”

The select House committee will investigate what led to the attack on the Capitol.

The panel will issue a report on its findings and how to prevent another violent attempt to disrupt the transfer of power.

Asked Thursday whether the committee will subpoena Trump, Pelosi would not say.

“I have made the appointments, the committee will make its decisions,” she said.

And there for the moment, I will rest.

Re: THE JANUARY 6th SELECT COMMITTEE

THE CAPE CHARLES MIRROR JULY 9, 2021 AT 5:21 PM

Paul Plante says:

According to an article in The Hill entitled “First hearing of Jan. 6 probe to feature Capitol Police testimony” by Mike Lillis on 07/01/21, this hand-picked Pelosi-ite KANGAROO COURT Nancy has charged with investigating the Jan. 6 attack will launch the probe with witness testimony from Capitol Police officers who were on duty during the deadly riot, because let’s face it, people, the first rule of these DEMOCRAT KANAGROO COURTS is to bring in the EMOTION, right off the bat – get people really so pissed off at Donald Trump for making these police officers feel bad about themselves, they will be screaming to Nancy Pelosi for his head on a platter.

According to the article, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), the chairman of the hand-picked committee, made the announcement on July 1st after huddling in the office of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who had named eight members of the 13-member committee just hours earlier.

Speculation is that he was huddled with Nancy to get his marching orders from her as to the results she wants him to produce with these hearings.

According to The Hill, Thompson did not specify when the hearing will occur or which officers the committee would call to appear, but he made clear that the process will begin with or without the participation of Republican appointments to the panel — a commitment that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has not yet made.

So much for bipartisanship, but let’s not dwell on that, since we all know it is a myth with Nancy Pelosi and her Democrats in charge of the so-called “House of Representatives,” which is inaptly named, because most of the people in this country have absolutely no representation whatsoever in there.

Instead, let us go back to the CNBC article entitled “Pelosi names 8 members of Jan. 6 committee, including Republican Liz Cheney, to probe pro-Trump riot” by Jacob Pramuk on 1 July 2021, to get the ROSTER of the A-TEAM, the team of politically-reliable sluggers and power hitters that can finally get it done for Nancy this time after numerous spectacular failures in the past, that Nancy Pelosi has put on the field here, so to speak, for THE BIG GAME, which team members are as follows:

Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., who will lead the panel
Rep. Pete Aguilar, D-Calif.
Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo.
Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif.
Rep. Elaine Luria, D-Va.
Rep. Stephanie Murphy, D-Fla.
Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md.
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.

Starting with Nancy’s lead-off batter, a real slugger who can be counted on by coach Nancy to get some good wood on the ball, for those who don’t know him, Bennie Gordon Thompson (born January 28, 1948) is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for Mississippi’s 2nd congressional district since 1993.

A loyal member of the Democratic Party, Bennie has been the chair of the Committee on Homeland Security since 2019 and from 2007 to 2011, being both the first Democrat and the first African American to chair the committee.

According to his published stats, Bennie attended Hinds County public schools before earning a B.A. in political science from Tougaloo College in 1968 and an M.S. in educational administration from Jackson State University in 1973, and he served as an alderman and then mayor of Bolton before being elected to the Hinds County Board of Supervisors, which experience set him in good stead to be the chair of the Committee on Homeland Security.

As to proof of Bennie’s proven political reliability, a necessary qualification to serve on Nancy Pelosi’s KANGAROO COURT, in an article in The Hill entitled “Who are the House Democrats backing Trump impeachment?” by Cristina Marcos on 9 June 2019, where we have as follows:

The nearly 60 House Democrats publicly supportive of launching an impeachment inquiry against President Trump represent a microcosm of the caucus, showing how fervor is spreading across diverse factions despite leadership’s efforts to contain it.

end quotes

Note the word “FERVOR” (intense and passionate feeling) in that sentence, and here, of course, we are talking about the FIRST FAILED DEMOCRAT IMPEACHMENT that was botched up by the smarmy Hollywood, California Democrat Adam Schiff, who if one checks the roster above, is back on the field for another try at Trump, after having failed big time the first go round.

Getting back to the story:

Most of the members who support an impeachment inquiry are liberal.

They include much of the Congressional Progressive Caucus leadership, as well as 17 members of the Congressional Black Caucus, whose members have long been among the most outspoken on impeachment.

Half of the members of the House Judiciary Committee, which would be charged with impeachment proceedings, already support launching an inquiry.

end quotes

And now that they have failed in that attempt, they are doing an end-run around RULE OF LAW with these hearings, which takes us back to the story, once again, to wit:

The Hill’s whip list currently has 58 Democrats in support of an impeachment inquiry.

About two-thirds of the Democrats publicly in favor of starting an impeachment inquiry are members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

They include the two Progressive Caucus co-chairs, Reps. Mark Pocan (Wis.) and Pramila Jayapal (Wash.), a Judiciary Committee member.

Three vice chairs who also sit on the Judiciary Committee have come out in favor of an impeachment inquiry: Reps. David Cicilline (R.I.), Joe Neguse (Colo.) and Veronica Escobar (Texas).

Progressive freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) – who drew attention on her first day in office in January by pledging to “impeach the motherf—-r” – introduced a resolution in late March calling for an impeachment inquiry.

It now has 12 cosponsors.

“I think that at this point, it is getting to become so overwhelming that we need to uphold the rule of law and the Constitution of the United States,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), a Tlaib ally, told reporters this week.

“I think that the tide is turning with the public.”

One of the most vocal advocates in the House has been Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), who forced two floor votes on his articles of impeachment in 2017 and 2018.

The articles of impeachment from Green, a Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) member, accused Trump of stoking racial divisions in America.

“At some point we will have to say the word ‘impeachment’ if we’re going to get to impeachment.”

“And I hear people saying that the president should be impeached.”

“So it shouldn’t be a difficult thing to say, and hopefully we’ll get to it,” Green said.

Just under two-thirds of Green’s CBC colleagues supported his articles of impeachment on the House floor in the last Congress.

The bitter feelings toward Trump among black lawmakers began long before the president even took office: when he raised doubts about whether then-President Obama was born in the U.S.

And it’s only gotten worse after Trump engaged in racial controversies like casting equal blame on white supremacists and counterprotesters for the 2017 violence in Charlottesville, Va., as well as personally attacking multiple members of the Black Caucus.

“Given where the CBC historically has been with respect to this president, we have been the number one company that he rejects.”

“We don’t get invited to any meetings,” House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), a CBC member, said on MSNBC’s “Kasie DC.”

Thompson is one of nine Democrats endorsing an impeachment inquiry against Trump who were in office the last time the House voted to impeach a president: Bill Clinton in 1998.

He’s also one of five committee chairs to call for impeaching Trump, which includes House Financial Services Committee Chairwoman Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), Budget Committee Chairman John Yarmuth (D-Ky.), Rules Committee Chairman Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) and Natural Resources Committee Chairman Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.).

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), meanwhile, has been privately pushing Democratic leadership to begin an impeachment inquiry only to be rebuffed.

But half of his committee’s members – many of whom are in safe liberal districts – are already on board with the idea.

“My district’s been for impeachment for a long time,” said Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.), who chairs a Judiciary subcommittee.

“It’s hard not to get there.”

California, one of the bluest states in the country, has many pro-impeachment voices.

“I think you can count members from every corner of our caucus,” Rep. Jared Huffman (D-Calif.), who supports impeachment, said in an interview.

“You’re going to get a lot of Californians simply because we’re by far the biggest delegation.”

The 11 California Democrats on board with launching an impeachment inquiry now doesn’t include Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.), who reintroduced articles of impeachment on the first day of the new Congress in January.

Sherman said he thinks Democrats should build more public support first.

“Impeachment without removal is not where I want to go,” he said.

Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell (D-Fla.), who flipped a GOP-held district last fall, is among the Judiciary Committee members who haven’t endorsed an impeachment inquiry.

But she indicated that it’s on her mind.

“To tell you the truth I have been thinking more and more about when it would be appropriate to start the inquiry,” Mucarsel-Powell told CNN’s “New Day” on Friday.

“I’ve read the Mueller report.”

“There is clear evidence that this president has obstructed justice and I think that there have to be serious consequences.”

Another freshman Judiciary Committee member, Rep. Greg Stanton (D-Ariz.), won his race by more than 20 points last fall but represents a district that’s been targeted by the GOP in recent years.

He’s already on board with an impeachment inquiry.

“I accept that this conclusion will be unpopular with some, but it is the right thing to do,” Stanton said.

And while the nearly 60 House Democrats publicly supportive of impeachment is still only about a quarter of the 235-member caucus, Huffman said he’s heard privately from colleagues who are more are on board than they’re letting on.

“I know the number’s higher,” Huffman said.

“But many members don’t want to get ahead of leadership.”

“And so that’s the delicate process that is underway.”

end quotes

And there, people, we have the beginnings of this “GET TRUMP AT ANY COST BY ANY MEANS” crusade that Bennie Thompson is now in charge of, but don’t go away, because we have more heavy hitters to detail before the game gets going in earnest, and after a word from our sponsors and a break for station identification, we’ll be right back.

THE CAPE CHARLES MIRROR JULY 10, 2021 AT 5:34 PM

Paul Plante says:

And before we go back to Nancy Pelosi’s A-TEAM of heavy hitters and sluggers who are finally going to “get it done” for the “GIPPER," as the “team” lovingly call Coach Nancy, let us go back a minute to this nation’s beginning days as a Republic, not a democracy, and the political essay of Virginian George Mason entitled “Objections to the Constitution” on September 13, 1787, where we have as follows:

In the House of Representatives there is not the substance, but the shadow only, of representation, which can never produce proper information in the legislature, or inspire confidence in the people.

end quotes

And how right he was, as we consider how few people in any congressional district actually vote these Democrats into office.

Consider Nancy’s lead-off batter, team captain and heavy hitter Bennie Thompson, who in 2020, was elected by 196,331 votes in a congressional district with a population in 2019 of 692,452 people, which means 28% percent of the people in that district put Bennie into office with power over everyone in that district, whether they want him in office, or not.

And it is an interesting historical fact that while the Democrats today screech and holler and moan and groan about the “sacred right to vote,” that following Reconstruction, the Democratic Party in Bennie Thompson’s Mississippi regained control of the state legislature and worked to reduce Republican voting strength in the state by redefining congressional districts, thereby creating a ‘shoestring’ congressional district running the length of the Mississippi River and taking in the black-majority (then Republican) areas of the Mississippi Delta, and by this gerrymandering, they created five other districts with white majorities.

As to the “sacred right to vote,” according to our history as written, election campaigns in Mississippi were often accompanied by fraud and violence as Democrats tried to reduce black Republican voting, and finally, the Democratic-dominated legislature passed a new constitution in 1890, with barriers to voter registration and other measures that effectively disenfranchised most blacks and many poor whites for decades, subduing the Republican and Populist movements of the late 19th century.

So, before the right to vote became “sacred” in Mississippi, it really wasn’t all that sacred before, if you weren’t a Democrat and happened to be Black or a poor white who didn’t truckle to the Democrats or drink their poisonous and toxic KOLL-AID, but hey, that was then and this is obviously now, so let’s go back into the record to document the bias and prejudice Bennie Thompson brings onto the playing field with him as Nancy Pelosi’s lead-off slugger, which bias and prejudice guarantee that there is no way in Hell that Bennie can be either fair or impartial or non-partisan, which is precisely why Coach Nancy picked Bennie out of the crowd in the first place, which thought takes us back to an article in the New York Times entitled “Opinion | Democratic Voters Want Impeachment. The House Dawdles” by Michelle Goldberg, Opinion Columnist on June 3, 2019, where we have the following background, to wit:

Until quite recently, Democratic House leaders justified their refusal to begin an inquiry into impeaching Donald Trump by saying that it wasn’t something their rank-and-file voters cared about.

“I can tell you I never hear somebody bring up the Mueller report,” Representative Cheri Bustos, chairwoman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said in Chicago last month.

After the Memorial Day recess, that argument is no longer tenable.

Across the country, Democratic voters have begun demanding that their representatives take a position on impeachment.

“At virtually every town hall, round table, or even, today, a kaffeeklatsch at a senior center, people want to know what we are going to do about this guy,” Mary Gay Scanlon, Democrat of Pennsylvania, told me.

Scanlon is vice chairwoman of the Judiciary Committee, which would oversee an impeachment inquiry, and two weeks ago she came out in favor of starting the process.

On Friday, Bennie Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat who is the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes that he’d come around to supporting an impeachment inquiry after speaking to people in his district: “To the person, everybody said, ‘What are you all going to do about President Trump?’”

end quotes

And now, thanks to the Cape Charles Mirror, we are all getting a first-hand look at what the Democrats are going to do about Trump with this KANGAROO COURT Bennie Thompson is now in charge of, which takes us back to that article once again, where we have Bennie’s team mate, long ball hitter Jamie Raskin, who is a CONSTITUTIONAL SCHOLAR, on the record proving his bias, as follows:

Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, told me, “I had about a dozen events this weekend, and there was an overwhelming sense that we have been presented with abundant evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors and we need to launch an inquiry.”

end quotes

Except they did launch an inquiry, and then they impeached Trump, and FAILED TO PREVAIL in the Senate trial, because there was NO EVIDENCE of either high crimes or misdemeanors, which thought takes us back to that article, as follows:

It’s no wonder so many Democrats want their representatives to take a more aggressive approach to the president.

It has now been five months since the party took control of the House of Representatives, a month and a half since the redacted report by the special counsel Robert Mueller was released, and almost a week since Mueller stood before the nation and all but asked Congress to hold a lawless president accountable.

Yet Democrats have largely failed to even begin presenting a cohesive case to the public about Trump’s corruption and criminality.

end quotes

They couldn’t present a cohesive case to the public because they had no case, period!

And here we are, coming back around again, and this time they are going to try to pin the crime of insurrection on Trump, despite the fact that there was no insurrection.

Getting back to the article, here we see A-TEAM member Jaime Raskin spitting some serious gouts of venom towards Trump’s eyes, as follows:

Resisting calls to open an impeachment inquiry, Speaker Nancy Pelosi has argued that various congressional committees need to continue their investigations.

Yet many of these investigations have been stymied, particularly in the Judiciary Committee.

“The president’s wholesale defiance of Congress, and orders to not participate in our investigation, have created an untenable situation,” said Raskin.

“The members are just livid about this categorical defiance of congressional power.”

end quotes

So we can tell Jaime is hot to bring down Trump any way he can, and that is why Nancy has Jaime on the team – because he is a dude of proven political reliability who can be counted on to do the right thing for Nancy who has been gunning for Trump with a passion, which takes us back to that article one more time for this essential background history, to wit:

Pelosi is a formidable person and, as she herself once said, a master legislator, so it’s tempting to imagine that she has some sort of plan for curbing Trump’s abuses of power.

Greg Stanton, a Democrat from a swing district in Arizona, is a member of the Judiciary Committee, and might seem like the sort of freshman who needs to be protected from taking a tough vote on impeachment.

Last week, he came out for starting an inquiry.

“I think there’s been an over-analysis of the politics of it,” he told me.

“I think there should be more focus on simply asking everyone what you think the right thing to do is.”

“The moment demands it, and so do the people who put Democrats in charge.”

end quotes

And there we have it, people – game is on!

And we’ll be right back after a break for station identification and a word from our sponsor, so if you need to go to the frig for a snack, now is the time to do it.

end quotes

Now, people, when Greg Stanton, a Democrat from a swing district in Arizona and a member of the Judiciary Committee, which one would think would demand that he be fair and impartial at all times, tells us as a member of the Judiciary Committee in connection with the FIRST FAILED DEMOCRAT IMPEACHMENT ATTEMPT that he thought there should be more focus on simply asking everyone what you think the right thing to do is, because in his opinion, which has been proven subsequently to be not worth much at all, if anything, “(T)he moment demands it, and so do the people who put Democrats in charge,” according to Gallup, for the week of June 3-16, 2019, he is talking about 26% of the voters being registered as Republicans, 46%, a clear majority, identifying as INDEPENDENT, and only 27% registered as DEMOCRATS, and for the week of June 19-30, 2019, 27% are still Republican, 41%, still a clear majority are INDEPENDENT, and 29% were registered as DEMOCRATS, so that if every single DEMOCRAT in America in June of 2019 wanted Trump impeached, that was less than one-third of the American voters, and yet, they were the ones who got their way, and then, THE DEMOCRATS FLUBBED THE IMPEACHMENT those 29% of the American people thought was the “the right thing to do,” which is what Hussein Obama used to say all the time about his ideas.

So, having failed not one, but two prior impeachments of Trump, including impeaching him for inciting the insurrection that never was which serves as the basis for this hand-picked Pelosi-ite KANGAROO COURT, what is the “right thing to do?”

Go with what the DEMOCRATS want, as we have already done twice before?

Or is it time to restore RULE OF LAW here in the United States of America?

Paul Plante says:

And how the horse**** does flow freely here, people, and I am referring to a Roll Call article entitled “McCarthy names five choices for Jan. 6 select committee – Pelosi could veto any and all GOP leader’s picks” by Chris Marquette on July 19, 2021, where we had as follows with respect to this supposedly “bipartisan” committee, to wit:

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy appointed Republican Study Committee Chairman Jim Banks to lead Republicans on the Jan. 6 select committee, but his position and the four other GOP picks are contingent on Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s approval.

If Pelosi signs off on McCarthy’s picks, Banks would serve as ranking member and would be joined on the panel to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol attack by Reps. Rodney Davis of Illinois, Jim Jordan of Ohio, Kelly Armstrong of North Dakota and Troy Nehls of Texas.

end quotes

So what is up with that?

Unless people who are Republicans are acceptable to Nancy Pelosi, who has already declared that an insurrection occurred on 6 January 2021 when there was no insurrection, thus tainting this committee before it has had a single meeting, they can’t be on this committee?

What kind of partisan bull**** is that?

Pelosi ought to save us time and money by simply writing the report she wants written instead of going though all this rigmarole with this bogus committee of hers, which takes us back to the Roll Call story, to wit:

Banks said Pelosi created the panel to “malign conservatives” but added that he will work to provide Americans with the facts surrounding the attack.

“I have accepted Leader McCarthy’s appointment to this committee because we need leaders who will force the Democrats and the media to answer questions so far ignored,” the Indiana Republican said in a statement.

“Among them, why was the Capitol unprepared and vulnerable to attack on January 6?”

“I will do everything possible to give the American people the facts about the lead up to January 6, the riot that day, and the responses from Capitol leadership and the Biden administration.”

“I will not allow this committee to be turned into a forum for condemning millions of Americans because of their political beliefs,” he stated.

The panel’s first hearing is scheduled for July 27 and will feature testimony from Capitol Police and Metropolitan Police Department officers.

end quotes

So things are definitely heating up here and where they will go from here, nobody knows, so stay tuned for more breaking news as it happens!

Paul Plante says:

And talk about the train leaving the station with no brakes, square wheels and a full head of steam and then some, with the boiler about to explode as the DEMOCRATS on Nancy Pelosi’s hand-picked KANGAROO COURT pour on the coal, and true to form the TYRANNICAL DESPOT Nancy Pelosi has vetoed two of the Republican choices because they didn’t meet her standards, while there is no challenge whatsoever of obviously biased and prejudiced DEMOCRATS on the hand-picked KANGAROO COURT like Elaine Luria, let’s go to an article in The Guardian entitled “Capitol attack committee chair vows to investigate Trump: ‘Nothing is off limits’” by Hugo Lowell in Washington on 21 July 2021, where we have as follows:

Congressman Bennie Thompson, the chairman of the new House select committee to scrutinize the Capitol attack, says he will investigate Donald Trump as part of his inquiry into the events of 6 January – a day he sees as the greatest test to the United States since the civil war.

end quotes

And talk about HYPERBOLIC (exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally) HORSE****, people, there we have it in spades staring us right in the face, because as events go, what happened on January 6 was a YAWNER, despite what Bennie wants us to believe, an event bordering on HO ******* HUM and it certainly was far from the “greatest test to the United States since the Civil War,” as we can clearly see from this newsreel footage of an assault on the Pentagon by protesters during the DEMOCRAT VEET NAM DEBACLE:

Anti Vietnam War Protest

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bk09F1fTs1E

Or this assault on the capitol in 1971 by VEET NAM WAR protesters:

1971 MAY DAY ANTI-VIETNAM WAR PROTEST FILM “THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING” WASHINGTON D.C. XD13614

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQzgchtpUFc

Or how about this for a candidate for the “greatest test to the United States since the Civil War,” to wit:

Protesters besiege White House as chaos sweeps Washington | ITV News

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwDcvAH43UQ

And my goodness, having been around back then, who can possibly forget this from a time when the United States was truly at the breaking point:

Vietnam War protest in Washington

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv7Gk-Pg7Rw

Which thought about America at the breaking point back then because of the Democrats and the VEET NAM war of Democrat Lyndon Baines Johnson takes us to this:

1969 Point Of Breaking (The Vietnam Protest – Washington, DC)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoeWqtjCJ_I

And this makes what took place on 6 January 2021 look like small potatoes:

Largest Anti-Vietnam War protest in Washington, D.C. – 1969 | Movietone Moment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nT-_ieQ57A

And my goodness, people, talking about an event that is another prime candidate for the “greatest test to the United States since the Civil War,” who can possibly forget the Bonus Army, which was a group of 43,000 demonstrators – made up of 17,000 U.S. World War I veterans, together with their families and affiliated groups – who gathered in Washington, D.C. in mid-1932 to demand early cash redemption of their service certificates.

According to Wikipedia, organizers called the demonstrators the “Bonus Expeditionary Force,” to echo the name of World War I’s American Expeditionary Forces, while the media referred to them as the “Bonus Army” or “Bonus Marchers.”

Many of the war veterans had been out of work since the beginning of the Great Depression.

The World War Adjusted Compensation Act of 1924 had awarded them bonuses in the form of certificates they could not redeem until 1945.

Each certificate, issued to a qualified veteran soldier, bore a face value equal to the soldier’s promised payment with compound interest.

The principal demand of the Bonus Army was the immediate cash payment of their certificates.

On July 28, 1932, U.S. Attorney General William D. Mitchell ordered the veterans removed from all government property.

Washington police met with resistance, shot at the protestors, and two veterans were wounded and later died.

President Herbert Hoover then ordered the U.S. Army to clear the marchers’ campsite.

Army Chief of Staff General Douglas MacArthur commanded a contingent of infantry and cavalry, supported by six tanks.

The Bonus Army marchers with their wives and children were driven out, and their shelters and belongings burned.

end quotes

So, bottom line, people, do not let Bennie Thompson and the Democrats bury you under a mountain of hyperbolic horse**** that simply is not true.

This nation has faced far worse in its history than what happened on 6 January 2021 and we survived.

And we survived 6 January 2021, as well, although the Democrats will have us believing otherwise with their full-bore propaganda barrage, which is what these hearings will be, this as we read in the breaking NBC News story entitled “McCarthy threatens to pull his choices from Jan. 6 panel after Pelosi rejects GOP Reps. Jordan and Banks” by Teaganne Finn and Leigh Ann Caldwell on 21 July 2021, as follows:

WASHINGTON — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., rejected two of Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s picks for the select committee charged with investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, prompting the Republican leader to threaten to pull all of his proposed appointees.
