#PresidentChump, you said that Xi Jingping is an enemy of the United States.
Xi is not the only enemy head of state.
Putin is another.
You are the third, and worst.

#PresidentChump claimed that he was worried about corruption in Ukraine.
But he didn’t say “I need you to do the right thing.”
He said, “I would like you to do us a favor though”. He asked for corruption.

Why does #PresidentChump want to withdraw from the Open Skies Treaty?
The editors of the Washington Post say that the treaty “monitors the conflict
in eastern Ukraine being fueled by Russia.”
Chump wants to aid Putin.

Today’s Washington Post described Bernie Sanders as “staunchly liberal”.
Sanders is not liberal, he is statist. He is not a democratic socialist,
because he doesn’t like democracy.
Sanders wants Gov’t to be the only source of everything,
with no alternatives, no choice.

If McConnell blocks #PresidentChump’s Trump’s conviction on the current
bills of impeachment, Chump can be re-impeached on other counts.
This justifies Congress’ calls for hitherto refused testimony and information.

Disloyal Americans in Congress
August 19, 2018 at 3:58 pm | Posted in Abuse of Office, Conceited, Disinformation, Dysfunctional Politics, Enemies of Freedom, Presidential election | Leave a commentTags: Beth Kreydatus, Bob Goodlatte, Carl Bernstein, cyber-defense, Devin Nunes, disloyal Americans in Congress, E.J. Dionne Jr., Freedom Caucus, interference in elections, Jennifer Rubin, Jim Jordan, Joe Scarborough, Kathie Sowell, Margaret Sullivan, Mark Meadows, Matt Gaetz, Max Boot, Putin, Robert Mueller, Rod Rosenstein, Rudi Guliani, Washington Post
Jim Jordan (R-OH) in the 114th Congress.
In a recent Congressional hearing, Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) shouted at Rod Rosenstein, “Why are you keeping information from Congress?”. This question referred to Robert Mueller’s special investigation of Putin’s interference in the Presidential election in 2016. Mueller’s investigation had been approved by Rod Rosenstein.
Jim Jordan’s question was loaded, like “When did you stop beating your wife?”
A question is loaded if it is being used as a vehicle for making an un-proven assertion, usually a derogatory assertion. The question is being used in a sneaky attempt to implant the assertion into the minds of those who hear the question.
Jim Jordan’s question was dishonorable. Indeed, Jim Jordan is both dishonorable and disloyal.
Jim Jordan is posturing at due diligence in Congress, in part to deflect attention to the fact that he either did not exercise sufficient due diligence to learn about Richard Strauss’ widely known sexual abuse of wrestlers at Ohio State University , or else that he knew about it but chose not to do anything about it.
Here are some legitimate questions. They are not loaded questions, because they assert about Jim Jordan only what his actions have proved about him.
– Jim Jordan, why are you opposed to the investigation of the well-established fact that Putin interfered in the Presidential election in 2016?
– Jim Jordan, why are you opposed to the United States and it allies learning from Mueller’s investigation how we and our allies can combat Putin’s future attempts at manipulating public opinion and elections in our country?
Your opposition amounts to obstruction of justice, and delays the improvement of our cyber-defenses.
– Jim Jordan, why are you obstructing justice?
– Jim Jordan, since you are obstructing justice, and are delaying the US’s defense against Putin’s manipulations, why should anyone believe your claim that you didn’t know about Richard Strauss’ sexual abuse of wrestlers at Ohio State University?
– Jim Jordan, when did you cease to be a patriotic American?
As an institution, Congress is worthy of respect. But not all Congressional Representatives are worthy of respect.
Jim Jordan is not worthy of respect.
The same is true of the notorious Devin Nunes, and of Bob Goodlatte, Mark Meadows and Matt Gaetz, who collude with Jim Jordan.
Each of these disloyal Americans in Congress proritizes partisan advantage over justice, and also proritizes partisan advantage over the election-based legitimacy of the United States Government.
This has been eloquently stated by Kathie Sowell and by Beth Kreydatus in their letters to the Editor of the Washington Post.
These disloyal Americans in Congress are opposed to investigating attacks on our electoral integrity, and therefore on the legitimacy of our government.
They are opposed to obtaining the information that is needed for developing defenses of our electoral integrity, and therefore of the legitimacy of our government.
Their loyalty is to their party, in its current degenerate form. Their loyalty is not to their country.
They are colluding in a Trump-Putin disinformation campaign.
None of them merit security clearances.
None of them deserve to be re-elected next November.
They should be impeached, or at least censured.
A “Freedom Caucus”? They are the exact opposite.
Disloyal Americans in government are also found outside of the House of Representatives: Rand Paul in the Senate, by President Chump, Rudi Giuliani (formerly a hero, now a heel), and their cronies in the Administration.
The headline of a Washington Post article by Max Boot: “Trump is ignoring the worst attack on America since 9/11 … we are at war without a commander in chief.”
An astute and careful commentator, E.J. Dionne Jr., notes “And Republicans should bear in mind that disrupting Robert S. Mueller III’s probe serves Putin’s interests, not just Trump’s.”
In an insightful article about the attempt by Jim Jordan and cronies to impeach Rod Rosenstein, Jennifer Rubin quotes Norman Eisen (a former White House ethics counsel ) and Fred Wertheimer (founder of Democracy 21): “Key House Republicans are abusing their offices and the public trust to blindly provide protection for [President] Trump. They are doing so instead of working to get to the bottom of the worst foreign attack on American elections in our history.”
In an update that is included in the online article, Jennifer Rubin then noted: “In case it wasn’t clear that this is all about Jordan’s political aspirations, he [Jim Jordan] indicated today that he is running for speaker[of the House of Representatives].”
You may remember Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, who uncovered crucial information about the break-in at the Watergate by Nixon’s team. Margaret Sullivan, of the Washington Post, reports that “Earlier this month, Bernstein said on CNN that he had never seen anything like the political reaction to Trump’s kowtowing to Russian President Vladimir Putin at a news conference following their Helsinki meeting: “We’ve never had a moment in our history like this where serious people of both parties are questioning the loyalty of the president of the United States. Unprecedented.””
“The GOP, AWOL as the U.S. is attacked“. That is the headline of an important article by Joe Scarborough in the Washington Post. Scarborough’s article is well worth looking at. It is a masterful concise summary that includes all of the most important facts.
The active disloyalty of Jim Jordan, Devin Nunes, Bob Goodlatte, Mark Meadows and Matt Gaetz, and their ilk must be distinguished from the passive disloyalty of Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan. The passively disloyal deliberately refuse to legislatively forestall Trump’s likely attempt to fire Mueller, much as he fired Comey over “the Russian thing”, and removed Brennan’s security clearance to silence a voice that was pointing out Trump’s errors.
