| bigger government = smaller citizen  |
My wife was two seats away from her. She was STEAMED and I don't blame her. Justin Amash was our guy for a long time. He's anti-FISA, anti-NSA spying, anti-frivolous kinetic action, etc. He explains every vote on Facespace, and claims to always uphold the constitution. Suddenly in the last year he's been somewhat absent and then pulls out this impeachment BS and makes NO comments to the fact that the whole thing is a huge farce. He's being a dick and a lot of people in west Michigan are pissed. “The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false-face for the urge to rule it.”—H.L. Mencken | |||

See that's the thing. He's not. He is (or was) closer to a libertarian than anything, but with a solid pro-Life view. He was explaining votes on Facebook back when no one, and I mean no one in congress would talk about their votes. He held both sides of the aisle accountable in both the Michigan State House, as well as the House of Representatives in Washington DC. In the last year he's made this odd never-Trump swerve and people are surprised and a bit pissed about it, especially because Trump is governing with more conservatism (aside from spending) than any (R) in recent history. People are right to question his manufacturing ties to China, via his brother (who I graduated with). I was on the "front line" with Ms. Timmer during Amash's early runs. They called me "Troll Killer" in the campaign office due to my dogged takedowns of Facebook trolls on the Amash Facebook page. I don't necessarily think this has a place in the Trump thread other than to say, people around here are wary of never Trumpers and I don't see him getting as much support in 2020. He might lose his seat and if he's primary'd by someone strong, which means we'll probably lose the seat to a (D) in the general, it's that close around here. He's a dick because he knows this and thinks people will hold their nose and vote for him anyway. With all of this pioneering and transparency on social media, he's a buffoon if he doesn't understand how quickly you can squander your support because you're being a dickhead never-Trumper. “The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false-face for the urge to rule it.”—H.L.

It's amazing how 'serving' in Congress can change people... usually for the worse. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Actually, I referenced the Twitter one in the middle of the article. That one is complete. The one you linked has been edited. This one is cool because of the follow up though. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

well, yesterday wasn't a good day for John Dean remember him, the guy that was convicted of obstruction during Watergate and Nixon... one could argue that he's the reason why so many people distrust government these days yet the dems bring him in as a showcase on why Trump is Nixon... what a bunch of pathetic losers [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

Well, here's one example. Jim Jordan took John Dean apart. Link to original video: https://youtu.be/Foh1EmmXpv8 ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

I watched Rep. Jordan’s cross-exam of Dean just before opening this thread because Rush was talking about it. What in the hell was Dean doing testifying before a Congressional committee? So, he plead guilty to Obstruction 45 years ago and he’s a SME?!? What a mockery the Dems have made of our system of government. _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

Whatever. As far as I'm concerned it's all just laser pointer antics, whether it's Sean Hannity or Rachel Maddow. People broke the law and I want to see justice done. CTH has thousands of documents that show where laws were skirted or ignored outright. People need to be held to account. I hope the POTUS declassify process ramps up soon. “The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false-face for the urge to rule it.”—H.L. Mencken | |||

I wholly agree with you. I think this is going to be a matter of timing for the 2020 election, though. Trump may be holding his best cards for later so it's fresh in the electorate's mind when it comes time to pull the lever. Even the dems seem like they want to drag this thing out so they've got their voters in a fevered pitch by election time with all their hemming and hawing over whether they're going to try to impeach or not. I'd like to see the whole clown show go down now, but timing is key and neither side seems to want to try to go for a death stroke just yet. ______________________________________________ “There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too.” | |||

We’re already so far past my very finite patience that I no longer care when it happens. As long as President Trump is re-elected and several of these GDC poop stains go to jail for a long time, I’ll be happy. If PDJT is re-elected and the GDCs involved in the attempted coup all go to jail for a long time, I’ll be ecstatic. | |||

I'm no longer hopeful that anyone will go to jail except for Flynn I think its obvious that no one is accountable for their acts of treason and sedition [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

I am reasonably confident that Trump will be able to secure convictions of some of the crooks. If it was not for Sessions, it would have been done already. Reading about what Barr has done so far, I fell very good about the near future. I think Barr is going to "unleash hell" on Comey, etc. sometime this year. Also I am pretty sure Sessions was a Never Trumper plant.This message has been edited. Last edited by: c1steve, -c1steve | |||

I agree. But the question remains: Why so? There are some big, essential, pieces of this whole thing that are missing. ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||

People are going down for all this, be patient. The public needs to be educated on all that transpired first. Educating the public means those that don't pay much attention and the others are by an large democrats. When the general public is more educated about all this, they will accept the prosecutions to come. The MSM is a huge hinderance here that has to be overcome. Otherwise, a revolution could ensue. Revolution may sound good to some but the reality is that the outcome of who wins and loses is in doubt. I would not want to be on the losing side and we'd lose the country and Constitution et al. ____________________________________________________ New and improved super concentrated me: Proud rebel, heretic, and Oneness Apostolic Pentecostal.
