Governor Huckabee Is Right, Democrats Are Feeding a Trump Landslide With Their Impeachment Circus. But Do They Have Any Choice?
Posted at 9:00 am on November 19, 2019 by Mike Ford

There is lots of chatter out there about the Democrats ruining their chances in 2020 by continuing this sham investigation, inquiry, witch hunt, farce, remake of the Beach Scene in The Lord of the Flies. To a certain degree, the pundits are correct. This show trial might be motivating their base—it surely is Trump’s, but it’s certainly not getting any traction with the persuadable voters in the center, who just want to see results.
Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee predicted on “Fox & Friends” that the ongoing talks of impeachment will lead to the “landslide reelection” of President Donald Trump in 2020 because Democrats have not been focused on the “real issues.”
That is true and here’s why: Like it or not, the President of these United States gets all the credit and all the blame when things go right or they go wrong. Them’s the rules, folks. Bill Clinton still gets/takes credit for a balanced budget…a budget provided to him by Newt Gingrich and the Republican “Contract With America.” That’s the way it works.
President Trump gets the blame for increasing deficits and an increasing debt. He’s also getting the blame for not building “The Wall.” The fact that there has been a downright hostile Congress, Press, and private special interests opposing him and instituting lawfare against his every action, is irrelevant. Donald J. Trump is the President of these United States—he gets the blame.
On the other hand, he’s also getting credit. He’s getting credit for a flat out, booming economy. Millions of new jobs created. Lowest unemployment in 5 decades…FIFTY YEARS! Lowest Black and Hispanic unemployment ever recorded. These United States are now collectively, the World’s largest energy producer.
These hot economic numbers aren’t the only story. President Trump put his considerable influence behind a bipartisan Prison/Sentencing Reform measure. The measure which passed certainly doesn’t hurt his chances with persuadable Black and Hispanic voters—and that, my friends, has the Democrats absolutely terrified.
President Trump, with his tax and regulatory policies, has visibly raised the economic and social mobility prospects of both Blacks and Hispanics. Remember those Blacks (and Hispanics) who then-Candidate Trump asked, “What do you have to lose?” Given current economic stats, bolstered by steadily increasing poll numbers, Democrats can see the writing on the wall. Those Black and Hispanic voters who took a chance and flipped the lever for Donald J. Trump in 2016, are going to be back to flip the lever for him again in 2020–this time bringing more than a few friends.
The Democrats are caught between the proverbial rock and a hard place. If the Democrats had cooperated with President Trump on Immigration Reform, where he offered them huge compromises—or on the US-Canada-Mexico trade agreement, coupled with his performance thus far, a landslide in 2020 would have been pretty much assured. Rather than cooperate on anything that might accrue to Trump’s political credit, the Democrats needed to do something to deflect. The path they’ve chosen, as Governor Huckabee points out, will lead to a landslide. Landslide or landslide, take your pick. The Democrats are in a very bad place.

Thanks basserdan. eom
Hey basserdan-
I may be wrong here but isn't the electoral college codified in the constitution and it would take an amendment to change it? If so wouldn't any state legislator that votes to not honor it in his/her state be violating their oath of office to support and defend the constitution?

HORRIBLE NEWS for Shifty Schiff – MAJORITY OF AMERICANS Don’t Want Impeachment, 76% Don’t Trust Dems and Believe Media is Pushing the Sham
No One in American Wants Impeachment except the Far-left Socialist Democrats and their Corrupt Media. They hate President Trump because he is a winner. He beat them and he’s making America great again as he said he would.
The Democrats and their corrupt media are totally blinded by their rage and they don’t realize that no one is in favor of impeachment.
FOX News released a poll where they stated that 49% of Americans were for Trump Impeachment. But their polling was flawed. The real extrapolated results of the poll using an accurate proportion of Republicans, Democrats and Independents showed that only 30% of Americans are in favor of Trump’s Impeachment and they’re all Democrats.
Next, a few days ago we reported on another poll that was consistent with the results of our extrapolated FOX News poll.
Nearly three quarters of all Americans have little or no trust in the way that Schifty Schiff is running the impeachment process –
You won’t hear this in the mainstream media: Nearly three fourths of Americans have little to no trust in the House Democrats’ handling of their impeachment process.#ImpeachmentHearings ?? pic.twitter.com/b0RfBwlY03
— Heritage Action (@Heritage_Action) November 14, 2019
Today another poll was released with similar results.
Most Americans believe that the corrupt media is trying to help get President Trump impeached. Three-quarter of Republicans, half of independents and even a third of Democrats believe this to be the case. No one trusts Schifty Shiff or the corrupt media pushing his impeachment sham.
1- "Seventy-six percent (76%) of Republicans and a plurality (48%) of voters not affiliated with either major political party say most reporters are trying to help impeach Trump, a view shared by only 36% of Democrats."
Let's recast that last phrase (cont). https://t.co/J9t4OO8F8O

This is perhaps the worst gaffe in modern political history.
This Schiff Show does not have a happy ending for the Democrats. Even with the support of the entire corrupt fake news media, it’s a total sham and everyone knows it!

Supreme Court Allows Victims Of Heart Disease, Obesity To Sue Utensil Manufacturer
Anyone see a parallel here?.........al
November 15th, 2019
WASHINGTON, D.C.—Acme Forks & Knives was trying to block a lawsuit brought against them by the obese community. The lawsuit suggested that the company's utensils were deadly tools that caused people to become overweight.
The Supreme Court has blocked the company's attempt to block the lawsuit, paving the way for victims of heart disease and other diet-related ailments to sue Acme.
"Finally---the big forks and knives lobby will be held accountable for contributing to heart disease and obesity, the leading causes of death among American adults," said a spokesperson for the oppressed obese community. "No human action leads to these deaths. It is entirely on the sentient utensils used to carry out the mass eating events."
"Blood is on their hands!" protesters cried. "Fight the corporate fork and knife lobby!"
Lawyers for the plaintiffs in these lawsuits have presented evidence that Acme Forks & Knives have marketed their utensils to the obese, specifically encouraging them to shovel a bunch of food in their mouths. They also said it was dangerous and irresponsible for the company to market a "fully automatic assault spork" that can shove "300 rounds of chili" into your face in under 10 seconds.
"Nobody needs that kind of forkpower," said one lawyer. "We will get justice for the obvious cause of this epidemic of deaths: the guys who make the utensils."

JUST IN: DOJ Inspector General Horowitz to Publicly Testify Before Senate Judiciary Committee on December 11 About His Investigation Into FISA Abuses
DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz is set to publicly testify to the Senate Judiciary Committee on December 11 about his investigation into FISA abuse.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) announced on Monday that Horowitz will discuss the findings of his investigation into DOJ and FBI’s conduct
“I appreciate all the hard work by Mr. Horowitz and his team regarding the Carter Page FISA warrant application and the counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign,” Graham said.
“Mr. Horowitz will be appearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee on December 11, where he will deliver a detailed report of what he found regarding his investigation, along with recommendations as to how to make our judicial and investigative systems better,” Graham added. “I look forward to hearing from him. He is a good man that has served our nation well.”
Horowitz is expected to release his much-anticipated FISA abuse report before Thanksgiving and it is expected to contain several criminal referrals, reported investigative journalist Sara Carter.
Horowitz has been working on a report documenting the FISA [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] abuses by Obama’s corrupt DOJ and FBI during the 2016 election targeting Donald Trump.
“It’s as thick as a telephone book,” Sunday Morning Futures host Maria Bartiromo recently said. “More than just FISA abuse.”
Horowitz’s report is also expected to reveal what TGP has reported on many times — that the FBI knew dossier author Christopher Steele (who was also used by the FBI as a CHS) was leaking to the media, but then used those leaked media reports as ‘evidence’ in their FISA warrant applications — this is known as circular intelligence reporting.
In other words, the FBI used its own leaked false information as ‘evidence’ to justify obtaining FISA warrants on Carter Page rather than independent intelligence gathered from other credible sources.
According to Sara Carter, Horowitz’s report will also contain evidence that the FBI treated Hillary Clinton’s campaign differently than Donald Trump’s camp. It will confirm reports that Hillary Clinton received a debriefing from the FBI on foreign attempts to infiltrate her camp, something the FBI never offered the Trump camp.
Michael Horowitz does not have the power to indict anyone, he can only criminally refer people for prosecution.

Deranged Anti-ICE Protester Sentenced To 3 Years In Prison After Attacking Disabled Man
Brock Simmons November 17, 2019
Another crazed leftist protester receives a prison sentence stemming from the rampant chaos that has enveloped Portland. William Bryant Pierce took a plea deal and a three year prison sentence after using his anarchist flag staff to attack a disabled man who was trying to get by on the sidewalk.
Injuries to Tim Schmitz at the hands of William Pierce.
60 y/o Tim Schmitz just sent me this picture from the hospital, he says a protester outside Portland City Hall attacked him today with a flag pole, jabbing at him through his truck window. Police say 33 y/o William Pierce, is now facing an assault charge #fox12 pic.twitter.com/oSryYl5tmG
— Bonnie Silkman KPTV (@BonnieSilkman) August 10, 2018
The initial story, from August of 2018, via KPTV Fox 12:
A local man said a Portland protester attacked him with a flagpole outside City Hall on Thursday.
The alleged assault occurred on Southwest 4th Avenue near City Hall just before 10:30 a.m., according to the Portland Police Bureau.
Police said the suspect, 33-year old Warren Pierce, was arrested and is facing an assault charge.
Officers said the pole was collected as evidence.
With a swollen and black eye, 60-year old Tim Schmitz spoke with FOX12 after being released from the hospital.
Schmitz said he may have a detached retina after an Abolish ICE protester jabbed him in the face, with what he believed was a 6-foot flag pole.
“He started coming at me through the window and started spearing me with the flagpole. I ducked it six or eight times and he finally got me the one time,” Schmitz said.
Schmitz said it all started when he was leaving City Hall, trying to make his way past a crowded sidewalk full of Abolish ICE protesters when he and one demonstrator began exchanging words.
Schmitz said he got in his truck to leave, pulled out to the street, where he stopped at a red light. That’s when he said the protester followed him, ran out into the street, and jabbed the flagpole through his truck window, striking his eye.
“I’m really disgusted with Portland. I’m disgusted and I feel ashamed that I even call it my birthplace. I know all about protesting and I understand it, I agree with. I don’t agree with stepping on my rights to do it though, especially because you don’t like what I say,” Schmitz said.

Obama Left an Ambassador to Die, But We’re Supposed to Be Outraged Over Trump's Yovanovitch Tweet?
By Matt Margolis November 15, 2019
On Friday, as former Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch was testifying, President Trump made a series of tweets criticizing her performance as ambassador, which got Democrats so triggered that his tweets were read soon after they were made, and the narrative presented was that the tweet was witness intimidation.
"Everywhere Marie Yovanovitch went turned bad," Trump tweeted. "She started off in Somalia, how did that go? Then fast forward to Ukraine, where the new Ukrainian President spoke unfavorably about her in my second phone call with him. It is a U.S. President’s absolute right to appoint ambassadors."
"They call it 'serving at the pleasure of the President,'" Trump continued. "The U.S. now has a very strong and powerful foreign policy, much different than proceeding administrations. It is called, quite simply, America First!" Trump also noted that he's done far more for Ukraine than his predecessor than Obama.
....They call it “serving at the pleasure of the President.” The U.S. now has a very strong and powerful foreign policy, much different than proceeding administrations. It is called, quite simply, America First! With all of that, however, I have done FAR more for Ukraine than O.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 15, 2019
This triggered Adam Schiff. "What we saw today is it wasn't enough that Ambassador Yovanovitch was smeared. It wasn't enough she was attacked. It wasn't enough that she was recalled for no reason, at least no good reason. But we saw today witness intimidation in real-time by the president of United States," Schiff said. "Once again going after this dedicated and respected career public servant in an effort to not only chilled her but to chill others who may come forward. We take this kind of witness intimidation and obstruction of the inquiry very seriously," he added.
Really? First of all, Yovanovitch wouldn't even have known about the tweet until after her testimony had Schiff not posted the tweets in the first place, but regardless, where's the intimidation? I can't see any. If Schiff was taking this seriously, he wouldn't be lobbing absurd charges for the purpose of piling on more ridiculous charges against Trump, hoping something will stick.
But what really gets me is how it's been almost seven years since Barack Obama left one of his ambassadors to die in a terrorist attack on a U.S. consulate, and the same people who defended the Obama administration endlessly over that are feigning outrage over Trump's tweet expressing his opinion. Democrats have been crying "impeach!" over everything for years, and now every time Trump expresses an opinion, we're hearing "intimidation." The same party that defended the Obama administration's failure to protect our consulate in Libya from an attack that claimed four American lives, including that of a U.S. ambassador, are now trying to tell us that we should be outraged over a harmless tweet—a tweet that, regardless of what one thinks of the content, was written after Yovanovitch started testifying, and as far as Trump knew, she wouldn't have even had an opportunity to see until well after her testimony concluded? A tweet that she'd have been oblivious to had Schiff not brought it up.
As White House spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham said in a statement, the tweets were “simply the President’s opinion, which he is entitled to.”

Al Sharpton Caught Using His Own Charity as an ATM
November 18, 2019
I have always known Al Sharpton was shady, and now we finally have proof.
The National Action Network is a non-profit group run by Al Sharpton.
The charity raises less than $10 million in donations a year.
Sharpton has been getting paid 10 percent or more of that money for most of the past decade.
The Big Payday
Sharpton is claiming he did not get his full pay from 2004 to 2017, so, in 2018, he was paid a base salary of $324,000 along with $563,352 in “other income” and $159,596 in bonus money.
That base salary was a full 32 percent more than his 2017 salary.
According to a private firm that was hired by the charity, Sharpton was owed more than $1.2 million in salary, but he was gracious enough to ONLY take a payment $500,000 less than that amount.
The charity released a statement that Sharpton is now all caught up for being underpaid all those years and not receiving a bonus.
Now, if you are like me, you are scratching your head on how a non-profit can pay such a hefty bonus out of donated funds to its president and CEO.
Sharpton says the money is justified because “It’s a six-day-a-week job and several hours a day and when [the compensation firm] compared it to other companies, other non-profits, that’s the salary that he would get.”
Wow, several hours a day at work, imagine that.
When I ran the numbers for a 4-hour workday, which is probably overly generous, Sharpton’s salary, including his bonus, came out to about $900/hour last year.
Even without the bonus, the salary was $239/hour. Just what is Al doing to deserve that kind of money, especially considering the charity only raised a little more than $7 million last year and barely eclipsed $6 million the year before?
The numbers and claim from the compensation firm are baffling, though, because Sharpton was paid more than $244,000 in 2017, $250,000 (plus a $437,555 bonus) in 2016, and it 2014, he received more than $400,000 in salary and bonus.
Oh, did we forget to mention that Sharpton sold the rights to his personal life story to the charity for a mere $531,000?
Where Is the Investigation?
Donald Trump’s charity was investigated by the New York AG, so why haven’t the practices of Al Sharpton’s charity been investigated?
Not only is Sharpton taking an excessive salary, but he has also been accused of shaking down companies to get donations.
On numerous occasions, Sharpton allegedly threatened to boycott or protest companies unless they made a donation to his charity.
The New York Post did a major investigation into the National Action Network, revealing that both Anheuser-Busch and Colgate-Palmolive donated under this pretense.
While Sharpton is ripping off his own charity, he still owes the IRS almost $700,000 for unpaid taxes.
So, when you see our government attacking our president, chew on the fact Al Sharpton has been ripping off his own charity for decades and nobody is saying a word about it and as far as I know, the charity has never even been sniffed for inappropriate practices by the New York Attorney General.
Maybe Trump should sick Barr on Sharpton but I guess he can’t, because that would be considered racist, right?

Poll shows impeachment hearings getting icy reception from the group that matters most: Independents
Joe Saunders, The Western Journal By Joe Saunders, The Western Journal
Published November 18, 2019 at 12:22pm
Adam Schiff & Co. are preaching to the choir.
The Democrats who launched an “impeachment inquiry” against President Donald Trump without a single Republican vote in support no doubt intended to use the proceedings as a showcase to bring in independent voters to their cause.
With the country basically divided between Republicans who still support Trump in overwhelming numbers and Democrats who still haven’t gotten over the 2016 election, independent voters are the key to the 2020 vote.
But if independents' reaction to the televised hearings that are bringing impeachment into every living room, bar and airport terminal in the land are any indication, Democrats are falling considerably short.
In fact, many independents aren’t paying attention at all.
That’s the result of a Reuters/Ipsos poll last week that found independent voters have paid scant attention to the hearings Democrats hoped would rivet the nation.
Only 19 percent of independents actually watched or listened to some of the hearings, the poll found.
Seventeen percent reported they watched or listened to streaming news summaries; 30 percent said they read or heard news summaries online or in the newspaper or on the radio.
That’s not exactly a national obsession -- and likely nowhere near the amount of interest Democrats hoped to kindle with this dog-and-pony show.
While Democrats like to point to the Nixon impeachment as their guide in the effort to oust Trump, the 37th president only resigned from office when it was clear he’d lost the support of his own party.
Trump, by contrast, is widely supported among Republicans -- an Iowa poll released Monday found a sky-high 85 percent job approval rating for the 45th president among Republicans, which is actually higher than it was in March, according to the Des Moines Register.
And the percentage of those who said they will definitely vote for Trump's re-election had risen by 9 points, to 79 percent, according to the poll by the Des Moines Register/CNN/Mediacom Iowa Poll.
This is in Iowa, where Democratic primary candidates have been filling the airwaves and other media outlets with ads touting their own credentials and bashing Trump ahead of the Feb. 3 caucuses that are likely to be pivotal in the nomination fight.
“I think he’s doing a tremendous job, really, as far as I’m concerned,” poll respondent Wayne Sparker, 82, told the Register.
"... I've been a Democrat all my life, but when he ran for office, when I could see what he was standing up for -- for the borders and the different solutions he brought forth -- I felt that I definitely needed to vote for him."
Those are the voters Trump needs to win in 2020 -- and they’re the kind of voters Democrats were trying to reach with this Adam Schiff's impeachment circus.
From the looks of things, and despite the massive help of the mainstream media, the main crowd Democrats are reaching with the televised hearings have already chosen sides.

Illegal alien charged with killing a Vietnam veteran day before Veterans Day
By LU Staff November 18, 2019
Samuel Jackson didn’t march in the Veterans Day parade this year. That’s because the 69-year-old Marine veteran, who had served in the Vietnam War, was killed the day before by 31-year-old Nemias Perez Severiano, a Mexican national who was in the country illegally.
According to CBS 3 in Philadelphia, court records Severiano had spent five hours at a local bar during which time “he consumed seven to eight Modelo beers.”
He informed the detectives that when he left the bar, he was ‘a little drunk.’ Severiano stated he made a stop at Oak and Astor Street and after I turned onto Astor Street, I heard a noise.”
The noise was evidently the sound of his vehicle striking Jackson, who had just exited his own car in front of his home. Severiano paid no attention to the noise and drove off, effectively leaving Jackson on the pavement to die.
Severiano has been “charged with accidents involving death as well as counts relating to allegations that he did not even have a license.”
Breitbart adds:
Severiano is currently being held on a $200,000 bond in Montgomery County. The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency has requested that should the illegal alien be released at any time that he be turned over to them for arrest and deportation. (RELATED: The U.S. border and the return of an old national defense problem)
Sadly, this case isn’t an uncommon occurrence. In April, a 19-year-old illegal alien living in St. Paul, Minn. struck another car, killing the driver, a father of ten. And in July, a Mexican illegal who has been deported seven times killed a father of three while driving drunk and speeding.
Jackson’s sister is quoted as saying:
My heart is broken, but I know my brother’s in a better place. I know he didn’t suffer. I can’t imagine what his last words were, but at the end of the day, it’s about him and giving him a good burial. I can’t wait until Saturday. I can’t even sleep because I know what is coming.
For the record, the CBS article makes no mention of the fact that Severiano was in the country illegally.

Joe Biden Condemns Trump’s Pardon of US Fighters – Ignores Obama Pardoning Gitmo Five or Sending a Pallet of Cash to Iranian Regime
Jim Hoft by Jim Hoft November 18, 2019
On Friday President Trump did not let the sham impeachment show trials slow him down. President Trump granted clemency to two Army officers accused of war crimes — Army 1st Lt. Clint Lorance, who is currently in Leavenworth, and Green Beret, Maj. Matt Golsteyn, who will have the murder charge against him dropped.
Democrats, including Joe Biden, slammed President Trump for his pardons.
Quid-Pro-Joe said President Trump’s pardons betray our “rule of law.”
Trump's intervention in the American military justice system to pardon service members accused or convicted of war crimes betrays the rule of law, the values that make our country exceptional & the men and women who wear the uniform honorably. He is not fit to command our troops.
— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) November 17, 2019
Joe Biden said nothing when President Obama gifted the Iranian regime with a secret pallet of $400 million in the dead of night.
Joe Biden said NOTHING when Obama released the Gitmo Five to the Taliban along with millions in cash.
Joe Biden forgot about that.
Whose side is he on, anyway?

Antifa thug steals bottle of water from disabled man then pours it on him because…’the resistance’
Posted on November 18, 2019
(TNS) Regardless of someone’s political beliefs, as a society we’ve got to have some basic rules of behavior that cannot be crossed, ever.
That includes victimizing someone who is disabled.
The American Left claims to have cornered the market on “compassion,” but in example after example we see that these people are nothing but liars and cowards.
Like the Antifa so-and-so who stole a bottle of water from a disabled person recently and then poured it on him because…#resistance or something.
This is what the left has come to pic.twitter.com/OqNpbrM9zH

Since we don’t know the origin of the video, we can’t say for certain that the gentleman in the wheelchair is indeed a disabled veteran.
But no matter. He certainly appears to be disabled. And that means he’s completely off-limits to physical abuse by people who aren’t disabled.
Like that Antifa coward who stole his bottle of water and then poured it over him.
Notice how these brave revolutionaries always travel in packs — screaming obscenities at people and labeling them as this or that without it ever dawning on them what gigantic hypocrites they are.
America has suffered through political unrest in the past but this time it feels different. It feels like it probably did in the 1850s, the decade preceding the deadliest conflict in the history of our country — our own Civil War.
Even Leftist comedian Bill Maher believes we, as a nation, are on the cusp of something terrible if we don’t stop hating each other and behaving the way the cowards in the video above are behaving.
We hate to agree with anything Bill Maher says, but he’s probably right.
Civil wars don’t just ‘break out.’ They occur following some event, some spark, and only after years of increased political tensions between rival factions who eventually figure out there is no other way to settle differences.
And we’ve already experienced years of political tension. Recall that conservatives’ disdain for Barack Obama was visceral and palpable.
But recall as well that we never saw videos go viral of Right-leaning Americans pouring water over defenseless disabled persons. That’s new to the Trump era, and it’s primarily the Left that is responsible for such disgusting behavior.
All while claiming that Trump supporters are disgusting.
This is how societies break down: When one segment feels they are no longer bound by the rules of civility that must be inherent in every culture, every society, lest they be consumed by violence and self-destruct.
We can’t abide this kind of behavior. Not if we hope to survive ‘the troubles.’

Joseph Stalin Warns Dems May Be Going Too Far Left
Via The Babylon Bee
MOSCOW—Brutal totalitarian dictator Joseph Stalin has warned Democrats that they may be going “too far left.”
“The Dems are kinda scaring me with all this far-left stuff,” Stalin said during a brief visit from his father’s house below. “Yes, I was one of history’s most deranged mass murderers, killing, like, 20 million people, but even I knew a boy is a boy and a girl is a girl. And we didn’t have any of this weird transgender athlete stuff—we just used steroids to stifle the competition and fired AK-47s at athletes’ feet until they ran faster.”
“Honestly, I’m a little worried,” Stalin said, distancing himself from the leftist wing of the Democratic Party. “If they keep this up, they’ll kill even more people than I did.”
Stalin’s comments immediately faced backlash on social media, with progressives sarcastically asking Stalin whether he thought “a livable wage,” “good healthcare,” and “mass starvation resulting from government’s inability to plan an economy” were “too far left.”
He has been canceled, reburied, and his old tweets are being investigated.

Report: Schiff’s ‘Whistleblower’ Coordinated Attack on Trump with Alexander Vindman
A new report alleges that Democrat Adam Schiff’s so-called “whistleblower” coordinated his attack on President Donald Trump with Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman.
Published 7 hours ago
on November 18, 2019
By Warner Todd Huston
A new report alleges that Democrat Adam Schiff’s so-called “whistleblower” coordinated his attack on President Donald Trump with Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the Democrat’s recent star witness.
On Saturday, the Washington Post reported on some of the steps a CIA analyst took to report his concerns that in a July 25 phone call, the president urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to start an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden.
“The analyst had served on the National Security Council during the Trump administration and had been in the presence of the president. After returning to the CIA, his job required him to continue to participate in National Security Council meetings,” the Post reported.
The paper also noted that this faux “whistleblower” had even attended meeting in the White House in August.
The Post also reported that the “whistleblower,” Eric Ciaramella, did not tell any of his CIA colleagues of his plans to attack the president as he worked on the lan in his CIA cubicle after hours.
But before filing the complaint, this “whistleblower” spoke with a White House official who said he was concerned over Trump’s conversation with Zelensky, too. The paper wrote that the “shaken” official said the call was “frightening,” “crazy,” and “completely lacking in substance related to national security.”
The Post said that the White House official the “whistleblower” spoke to was Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman.
“The analyst does not identify the official in his July 26 memo, which was obtained by congressional investigators in the impeachment inquiry. But Vindman, in his testimony, disclosed that he had spoken to officials outside the White House within days of the Trump-Zelensky call,” the paper reported.
Some felt Vindman was problematic. For one, Timothy Morrison, a former deputy assistant to the president and the National Security Council’s former senior director for Europe and Russia, testified that he had “concerns” about Vindman’s “judgment.”
And well before the “whistleblower’s” claims, others also said that they felt that Vindman should have been fired from his role in the White House.
In the end, the Post’s report seems to show that Vindman and Ciaramella carried out a coordinated attack on President Trump that was carefully planned for months.

Trials and Tribulations by Stilton Jarlsberg
In all seriousness, today we'll find out if we're being called in for jury duty here in the great state of Texas, where we've Made Capital Punishment Great Again.
On two previous occasions, we've almost served. During questioning for the first, we were asked if we'd had any negative experiences with lawyers and, because we were under oath, we had to testify truthfully that we'd been lied to and screwed by pretty much every lawyer we'd ever met, with the exception of our maternal grandfather whose tombstone accurately describes him as the "Last Honest Lawyer." Oddly, we were dismissed.
The next time, we were actually seated in the jury box and ready to go...but the defendant took one look at the 12 good and true citizens waiting to pass judgment, perhaps noticing the tiny bit of anticipatory drool on our personal chin, and decided to cop a plea with no testimony.
Whether we make the final cut this time remains to be seen, but per the cartoon above, we really do wonder if lawyers should ask potential jurors whether they've been watching the Schiff hearings. Because if they have, they'll either have a complete misunderstanding of how justice is supposed to work, or they'll know exactly how justice is supposed to work but will have come to the conclusion that the system is too corrupt to actually function.
Still, we believe in the jury system and won't do anything to get out of doing our duty. Because first and foremost, this is a nation of rights...and if we weasel out of serving, we'll lose our precious right to bitch about the cesspool of modern Justice.
