Get This . . .

. . . straight. . .



(from https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/no-quid-pro-quo-why-trump-s-impeachment-defense-sounds-ncna1070866)
". . . impeachment isn’t about the federal criminal code, as much as Trump wants it to be. Impeachment is about abuse of power. Impeachment is about trading foreign policy for personal gain. Trump’s behavior — pressuring a foreign government to launch a sham investigation into a political rival for the purpose of disrupting a U.S. presidential election — is precisely the kind of self-dealing behavior the framers of the Constitution had in mind when they crafted the impeachment clause. . ."

Amen . . .

. . . our commander-in-chief's address regarding the assassination of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi today brought to mind . . .



(from https://genius.com/Monty-python-holy-hand-grenade-of-antioch-annotated)
". . . And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this Thy hand grenade that, with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy mercy." And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and l. . . . And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.". . . "

Elections . . .



(from 'and yet . . .' Christopher Hitchens Essays)
". . . Where would we be without the tradition of American populism, which adopted for itself the term hurled as an insult by Teddy Roosevelt - "muckraker"? What goes for muck should go for mud. Who would wish to be without that "used-car salesman" innuendo against Richard Nixon, or the broad hint that Barry Goldwater was itchy in the trigger finger? Just let's have no whining when the tables are turned. . . In the election that pitted Thomas Jefferson against John Adams, the somewhat more restricted and refined electorate had its choice between the president of the American Philosophical Society and the president of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. . . Yet it's worth looking up what was said, especially about Jefferson, in those days: he was called adulterer, whoremaster, atheist, even deserter in the face of the enemy. There's no doubt that the emergence of parties or "factions" after the retirement of George Washington gave voters a set of clear and often stark choices - and a good thing that was, too. . ."

Do-Nothing . . .

. . . Democrats?. . .


(from https://www.vox.com/2019/5/24/18637163/trump-pelosi-democrats-bills-congress)
" . . . In addition to their investigations, they’ve been passing legislation at a rapid clip. In all, the House has taken up 51 bills, resolutions, and suspensions since January — 49 of which they’ve passed. This includes a slate of bills to attempt to end the longest government shutdown in history, the result of a protracted fight between Trump and Congress over border wall funding. . . recently passed a bill to lower prescription drug prices, and another one to protect preexisting conditions. The House also passed nine bills on veterans issues this week alone, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi noted at her weekly press conference. On Thursday, Democrats tried to present Trump their infrastructure plan before he walked out of their meeting. . ."

Hmm. . .



(from https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/salvadorhernandez/trump-border-wall-in-colorado-what?utm_source=dynamic&utm_campaign=bffbbuzzfeednews&ref=bffbbuzzfeednews&fbclid=IwAR0LCJgO2E9BsK4eEKU5YUIQOjEX0-Is5yrOm4VNEc04kfRgHKAT47X0pg0)
". . .Trump has promised supporters he would build a wall at the US–Mexico border since the early days of his presidential campaign, but Colorado is not one of the four US states that border Mexico.. . . News of the possibility of a border wall being built in the middle of the continental US came as a bit of surprise to Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, who responded to the president's remarks on Twitter.

@GovofCO
Well this is awkward ...Colorado doesn’t border Mexico. Good thing Colorado now offers free full day kindergarten so our kids can learn basic geography. . . "

In A Nutshell. . .



(from https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/22/opinion/trump-america-russia.html)
". . . if Congress, Republicans and Democrats alike, act to remove this president, a new powerful message would be sent to governments and people around the globe, just like the one that went out in 1974: Moral principles still matter in American politics and policy. And the future still belongs to moral truth and to those who embrace it. . ."

Give . . .

. . . me a F#@*ing BREAK!!! . . .

(from https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-blames-phony-emoluments-clause-scrapped-plan-host-g-7-n1069606)
". . . Trump on Monday defended his original decision to host the 2020 G-7 summit of world leaders at his private resort in Miami, blaming what he called the "phony" emoluments clause of the U.S. Constitution for his abrupt reversal. . . "You people with this phony emoluments clause," Trump told reporters at the White House during a Cabinet meeting, referring to the section of the Constitution that prohibits government officials from accepting payments and gifts from foreign governments. . ."
