Grow A Pair
All of these people recusing themselves from various investigations is infuriating. Nunes being the latest, Sessions, and of course Mike Flynn being let go just gives credence to the Democrats claims that the Trumpapalooza tour is in disarray.
The thing that I don’t understand is, if Trump is such a fighter why allow the lefties to run his bus off the road? We/I wanted a brawler in the White House, somebody with some balls to take on the left with brass knuckles and a bad attitude. Unfortunately, starting with Flynn, were watching the left and their media bully their way around Washington as if they are still untouchable. How can this happen when Republicans have what they have always coveted, the house, senate, and White House, all under their control.
I know that they went the “Nuclear Option” on Gorsuch which does show some semblance of wielding power but that should have been a no brainer. How long before the next whispers leaks of a Trump roadie getting railroaded off the team with some bullshit tactic by the left? They’ve gotten away with three victories so far against what I thought was a formidable opponent, a Republican majority.
Time for Republicans to grow a pair and start busting heads. Expose the reports Susan Rice scrubbed, call out Schumer and his minions and demand proof of Trump/Russia collusion, if they can’t produce it, demand an apology on the Senate floor to be written into the federal registry. If no wrong doing is found by Mike Flynn reinstate him in a position that was vacated by an Obama holdover that was fired by Trump. Let Schumer and Pelosi know that any more shenanigans will result in charges by Trumps DOJ against Hillary and her bathroom server.
Quit acting like Republicans have some moral authority to do the right thing, this is a street fight and the left is cheating, time to grab the ball bat and start fighting dirty.
“Several leftwing activist groups have filed accusations against me with the Office of Congressional Ethics. The charges are entirely false and politically motivated, and are being leveled just as the American people are beginning to learn the truth about the improper unmasking of the identities of U.S. citizens and other abuses of power.”
“Despite the baselessness of the charges, I believe it is in the best interests of the House Intelligence Committee and the Congress for me to have Representative Mike Conaway, with assistance from Representatives Trey Gowdy and Tom Rooney, temporarily take charge of the Committee’s Russia investigation while the House Ethics Committee looks into this matter.”
House Speaker Paul Ryan Statement:
“Devin Nunes has earned my trust over many years for his integrity and dedication to the critical work that the intelligence community does to keep America safe. He continues to have that trust, and I know he is eager to demonstrate to the Ethics Committee that he has followed all proper guidelines and laws.
In the meantime, it is clear that this process would be a distraction for the House Intelligence Committee’s investigation into Russian interference in our election. Chairman Nunes has offered to step aside as the lead Republican on this probe, and I fully support this decision. Chairman Mike Conaway, a senior member of the Committee, will now lead this investigation in the House. I am confident that he will oversee a professional investigation into Russia’s actions and follow the facts wherever they lead.”
Interim Chairman Mike Conway Statement:
“I have been a member of the House Intelligence Committee for over eight years now, and it is a responsibility I take with the utmost seriousness. My profession as a CPA and auditor has taught me to be objective and methodical, and that is how I intend to help lead this investigation. I am confident that Ranking Member Schiff and I will be able to work together to conduct an effective, bipartisan investigation.
“I must emphasize that this is a temporary position- Chairman Nunes has my full support, and I am confident these charges levied by outside activists will be proven false. I thank Speaker Ryan and Chairman Nunes for entrusting me, along with Representatives Rooney and Gowdy, with this matter of critical importance to our national security.”

The Fog Of Politics
Syria, Iran, Turkey, Somalia, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq, ect….the quagmire of countries with internal conflict and Islamic terror.
London, Germany, Italy, France, Sweden, and others dealing with terrorists and struggling economies.
In the US, the economy, healthcare, protests, and a myriad of other issues that needed to be dealt with by a Presidents administration.
Yet Obama wanted information about Trump?
Why in the world, with all of the global problems facing the United States, would the Presidents Daily Briefing contain national security items involving then candidate Donald Trump and his team?
This was purely political. The only reason you have your National Security Adviser request the names of Trump and his people was to embarrass, harass, and get dirt or information on his team with the intention of helping Hillary. Then after Trump won, Obama changed the rules and it was used as a political weapon…ie, Mike Flynn.
As clear as the nose on your face.
We Know What You Did Last Summer
So the sacrificial lamb seems to be Susan Rice, if the reports are correct.
Remember she got away with lying about Benghazi being caused by an internet video, Obama and Hillary both backed that story. Nothing….NOTHING has come of the Benghazi investigation which leads me to believe that NOTHING will come of another investigation, there is only one way to find out.
If she unmasked the names of private citizens and spread that information to various agencies for political purposes she should be prosecuted, Trump should NOT order an investigation, he SHOULD order his Justice department to arrest her and let the chips fall where they may. She’s not been found guilty of squat and presumed innocent but she is the one who has been fingered as the culprit and should be judged accordingly.
Susan Rice doesn’t seem bright enough to have hatched this scheme on her own, she was used as a puppet for Obama on the Benghazi fiasco and is the definition of useful idiot. This smacks of Obama, Hillary, and Valerie Jarrett. Maybe the threat of taking the fall for them may get her singing, who knows.
If Rice assumed Hillary was the inevitable winner of the presidency she probably wasn’t concerned any of this would come out, her actions may have just been an insurance policy to tank Trump during his campaign. When Trump won Obama and Jarrett decided to change the rules and spread the intelligence throughout various agencies to muddy the waters.
An investigation goes nowhere, an arrest and trial would get their attention and it might just wipe the smug hatred off their faces.

I Fought The Law…
Elected officials be it judges or politicians who obstruct law enforcement are breaking the law and their oath of office and should be removed from office……..period.
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.
Massachusetts State Representative, Michelle Dubois took to Facebook to warn illegal aliens that ICE would be doing raids in the community of Brockton on Wednesday, March 29th. Regardless of her “Update” trying to weasel out of what she had done the fact of the matter is she is alerting illegals to pending law enforcement actions.
Paying For The Happy Ending
That’s why reforming health care has become an impossibility. As soon as anyone makes any noises about fixing the system, the army of lobbyists, hired by every vested interest, shows up to bury the reformers. If they are not able to kill the idea of reform entirely, they set about corrupting it into another grift that their clients can use to get a free shot at your wallet. The only people not represented in these efforts are the voters. They get no say. here…..
Sky Rockets In Flight
There is no other consumer good or service whose price has increased over the last 20 years that even comes close to the soaring cost of college tuition and college textbooks, which have both tripled in price and increased by 200% since 1996.
Healthcare and college are two of the most inflated industries in this country as well as two of the biggest industries in which government is heavily involved. Coincidence? I think not. found here….
So you can buy a kazillion inch TV on welfare but it costs you a kazillion dollars for a college education. Feature or bug?
Keeping the underclass entertained and manipulated while insuring the elite and their kids have a greater shot at success and maintaining power.
Same thing with healthcare, keeping the middle class crippled with terrible insurance while elites get the best plans and doctors, and welfare recipients get their insurance for free paid by……..the middle class.
See where this is going??
Allegiance To An Ideology
“Democrats have become radicalized by the left. This doesn’t just mean that they pursue all sorts of bad policies. It means that their first and foremost allegiance is to an ideology, not the Constitution, not our country or our system of government. All of those are only to be used as vehicles for their ideology.
That’s why compromise has become impossible.” keep reading….
Crossing Guards
Growing up in small town America in the 70’s we never locked our doors at night, as a matter of fact I never had a house key as a kid, didn’t need one. If I remember right we had a key hidden at the back door by the rock next to the first bush left side of the door under a potted plant, the only potted plant in that area. Basically if you were a thief looking for the house key my folks all but laid out a map. I think the only time the house was locked was when we left town and the key was for the neighbor to feed the dog.
We didn’t have adult crossing guards, in elementary school the fifth graders were given the task of getting kids across the streets safely. I guess school officials figured 10 year olds were bright enough to know how to shuttle the urchins back and forth at the crossings. It was considered quite the honor to be the crossing guard, to wear the orange vest with the hand held stop sign, it was a big deal.
What a small but meaningful way to understand responsibility, I don’t recall anyone ever getting hit at a crossing and we had some damn busy roads.
We didn’t hav
e cops in our schools, there was no need. The teachers and staff were there to handle any problems but we didn’t need law enforcement. High school kids would skip class, smoke in the parking lot and get in fights but it was all handled by the students themselves or the teachers. It was innocent and obnoxious trouble making but we never wished we had a cop around.
We were raised to not be afraid, to be responsible, and have the ability to handle our own problems. We learned that the society we lived in had laws and we were taught to adhere to those laws or face the consequences. There were also the unspoken rules, respect your elders, hold a door open for the ladies, don’t hit girls, and don’t swear in front of Mom.
We lived by the rules, didn’t seem that difficult.
When people don’t abide by the laws of the land and choose to not follow the rules then society breaks down. When a Mohamed shoots up a company Christmas party, or a couple of illegal immigrant adult males rape a 14 year old girl, or a black man attacks a cop after robbing a store, you kinda get the feeling that society has got a problem. But here’s a little secret, Mohamed, Jose, and Deontre’ don’t care about the rules. Each individual was raised a certain way and follows the rules they have learned from childhood to adult, the individuals mentioned above obviously didn’t learn the same lessons as I did growing up.
These are the people that liberals put on a pedestal, the kind of people liberals don’t want banned, the kind of people that liberals want crossing our borders, the kind of people that are the handiwork of our union run public schools, the kind of people who don’t follow our laws because they have their own culture that has it’s own laws.
We used to have wonderful country where for the most part, other than the crazies, people followed societies laws whether written or unspoken. Unfortunately our elected officials have chosen that diversity is the future regardless of the casualties.
We lock our doors now, even when we’re home.
