FBI raid: False premises, first principles, and friends like these

A heavily redacted affidavit prompts more questions than answers, but much larger issues are at stake.  Can anyone supersede the President’s classification powers?  What if the information was declassified as Trump says and the entire investigation is based on a false premise?  Why has no one answered that question?  Who’s in charge of Presidential records,… Continue reading FBI raid: False premises, first principles, and friends like these

The President of the Perpetual Bailout

What do state and local governments, public education, the hospitality industry, the construction industry, the technology industry, the green energy industry, and, most recently, student loan recipients have in common?  They’ve all been bailed out by President Biden, ushering in a new era of perpetual spending, sometimes with no vote in Congress required. Americans are… Continue reading The President of the Perpetual Bailout

Biden engineered the Trump raid by manipulating legal precedent and trashing democratic norms

New memos show the White House was closely involved in the investigation before the FBI, explicitly stating that Biden would take the almost unprecedented step of waiving legitimate Executive Privilege claims to transfer information to the Department of Justice.  This means the investigation was engineered by the Biden Administration on highly suspect legal grounds, though… Continue reading Biden engineered the Trump raid by manipulating legal precedent and trashing democratic norms

Enough: Indict Trump already or give it a rest

The alternative to a trial of the former President is a continuation of the endless stream of leaks from prosecutors and misguided interpretations of the law from the real card carrying experts in the media.  If you truly believe the former President is guilty of something, let him have his day in open court. Tell… Continue reading Enough: Indict Trump already or give it a rest

Trump is not to blame for people’s righteous anger at the FBI

The goal of this government sponsored misdirection is the same as it’s always been:  Keep the focus on President Trump, suggesting it no longer takes two to tango as the old saying goes, rather than demanding much needed answers from the very people that plunged us into this situation to begin with. Once upon a… Continue reading Trump is not to blame for people’s righteous anger at the FBI

Russia Collusion Redux

The FBI wouldn’t open an investigation on suspect grounds, staff it with haters of former President Trump, and deploy the most intrusive means imaginable predicated on lies and half truths, would they?  Sadly, we already know the answer to this question… Last week, we learned that former President Donald Trump is under investigation for violations… Continue reading Russia Collusion Redux

Nuclear secrets and cocktail napkins, the Attorney General thinks you’re stupid and should otherwise go screw

The FBI is investigating a former President and future candidate for espionage, but neither the Attorney General nor the President feel any explanation at all is required on their part.  Instead, they plan to treat this unprecedented occurrence like a jay-walking ticket, pretending there aren’t massive conflicts of interest and political ramifications that come with… Continue reading Nuclear secrets and cocktail napkins, the Attorney General thinks you’re stupid and should otherwise go screw

FBI raid: Biden’s conflict of interest is unresolvable and Republicans need to do more than demand answers

If President Biden and Attorney General Garland believe a conviction of Trump for any potential crime would prevent him from running again, clearing the field of the most likely candidate, they cannot be trusted to remain objective. Republicans can shut down the Senate until they provide satisfactory answers. In the wake of the FBI raid… Continue reading FBI raid: Biden’s conflict of interest is unresolvable and Republicans need to do more than demand answers

Democracy dies in an FBI raid on a former President

Earlier this week, the FBI raided the home of former President Donald Trump in action unprecedented in US history without even deigning to tell the American people what they are looking for or why.  Now, some are claiming the former President will be prosecuted for some unspecified crime, taking us from unprecedented directly to earth-shattering.… Continue reading Democracy dies in an FBI raid on a former President

Coronavirus: Lies then, lies now, lies forever

Dr. Anthony Fauci, a lead proponent of lockdowns, now claims he never recommended any lockdowns while his colleague, Dr. Deborah Birx openly admits she engaged in “subterfuge” in the early days of the pandemic, deceiving President Trump and the American people for her own purposes.  When will anyone pay a price for the biggest policy… Continue reading Coronavirus: Lies then, lies now, lies forever
