We finally see the cause of undercounting Democrat votes in elections.
Nice job in Iowa, Democrat party.
Way to show everyone how you’ll run the country if elected.

“Trump could offer Alaska to the Russians in exchange for support in the next election,” he said. “Or decide to move to Mar-a-Lago personally and let Jared Kushner run the country, delegating to him the decision whether to go to war.”

Schiff said Senate Republicans would create a “runaway presidency” if they failed to remove him from office.

“We have known since the day we brought these charges that the bar to conviction requiring a full two-thirds of the Senate may be prohibitively high,” he said. “And yet, the alternative is a runaway presidency and a nation whose elections are open to the highest bidder.”

Huh, so that's why the DNC changed their own rules to open things up for Bloomie?
They want the election to go to the "the highest bidder.”? Perhaps they forget that Hillary outspent Trump by at least 3-1?



"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."

Adam Schiff Warns Donald Trump Could Give Alaska to the Russians If Not Impeached

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...ns-if-not-impeached/

House Impeachment Manager and House Oversight Chairman Adam Schiff warned Monday that President Donald Trump might give Alaska to the Russians if he is not impeached.

Schiff disagreed with the president’s lawyers, who argued that Trump’s actions were not criminal and should thus not be considered impeachable.

He warned that they were setting a precedent that would only encourage Trump to pursue “unacceptable” actions if exonerated.

“Trump could offer Alaska to the Russians in exchange for support in the next election,” he said. “Or decide to move to Mar-a-Lago personally and let Jared Kushner run the country, delegating to him the decision whether to go to war.”

Schiff said Senate Republicans would create a “runaway presidency” if they failed to remove him from office.

“We have known since the day we brought these charges that the bar to conviction requiring a full two-thirds of the Senate may be prohibitively high,” he said. “And yet, the alternative is a runaway presidency and a nation whose elections are open to the highest bidder.”


So, if elections here are open to the highest bidder, how did that idiot get elected, and more to the point, how did he get re-elected?

And now he is worried about what will happen to Alaska?

Does he really think such could happen?
Does he really think Americans are that stupid?

Where is that lightning bolt?!

There is something seriously wrong with that smirking, bug-eyed fool. Eek

Can none of these Democrats HEAR THEMSELVES right now and see that they are looking and sounding like total lunatics? Damn.

The impeachment scam depends on touting sleepy joe as DTs political rival, which means he needs to be the frontrunner. Could they be delaying the Iowa caucus outcomes until after the Senate vote on Wednesday because it shows biden is barely in the race?

Not that this would affect the eventual outcome of acquittal, but it could influence more democrat defection votes.

Members of Congress are automatically granted security clearances. True fact.

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...union-preview-lunch/

President Donald Trump blocked CNN from a special lunch previewing his State of the Union address on Tuesday.

Traditionally, the president invites top journalists to an off-the-record lunch to talk about his goals for the State of the Union address.

But this year, anchors from CNN were not invited, according to CNN’s Brian Stelter who accused the White House of “targeting” the network.

Last year, CNN’s Anderson Cooper and Wolf Blitzer attended the event at the White House. Stelter noted Blitzer had attended the lunch for 20 years in a row.

Other news anchors at other television networks will still attend, according to Stelter’s report.

Although the meal is off the record, details frequently leak into the media.

President Trump criticized the media’s failure to protect the off the record agreement after the 2019 meeting.

“Gave an OFF THE RECORD luncheon, somewhat of a White House tradition or custom, to network anchors yesterday – and they quickly leaked the contents of the meeting,” Trump wrote Twitter. “Who would believe how bad it has gotten with the mainstream media, which has gone totally bonkers!”

Maybe if they have an uninhabited spot they want fertilized we could just drop him off. Let him out at say 35,000 of 36,000, parachute optional, O2 bottle optional, and fly on home.

Many of us used to fill out the forms (398?) every five years, apparently not so for Senators and Congressmen.

Politicians and Security Clearances

Lawmakers (and aspiring presidents) don’t go through the same background investigation process required of everyone else.

by Linda Kyzer
JULY 27, 2016

Think your vote doesn’t matter? In addition to exercising your civic responsibility, you’re also carrying out a security responsibility, as well.

Members of Congress don’t go through the same background investigation process as you or me. The process of election is considered a public seal of access. When you elect a candidate into office – be it Congress or the Presidency – you in some sense grant them access to the classified information required for the position.

According to the CIA’s Center for the Study of Intelligence: “There are no written rules, agreed to by both branches, governing what intelligence will be shared with the Hill or how it will be handled. The current system is entirely the product of experience, shaped by the needs and concerns of both branches over the last 20 years.”

What that means is that if a member of Congress or individual appointed to a government office needs access to classified information, they’re likely to get it.

What About Congressional Staff?

House and Senate staff members do undergo a security clearance background investigation process, as well as signing a non-disclosure agreement. Clearances are only granted to staff requiring access to classified information.

Both the Senate and House have security offices responsible for overseeing classified information and access. The Office of Senate Security was established in 1987, the Office of House Security was established in 2005. The Senate notably has a security manual governing the procedures and requirements of classified information. It applies to all Senate staff – but not to the Senators themselves.

A Security Double Standard?

If all of this strikes you as exceedingly unfair, you’re not alone. Former Rep. Sue Myrick, R-N.C., introduced legislation in 2008 that would have required all members of the House to obtain a security clearance and go through the same background investigation process as other government employees.

The bill did not pass, and critics argued it would compromise the independence of the legislature. Other arguments that requiring a formal background investigation process would result in two classes – those with clearances and those without – and also that it would slow down the legislative process.
