Elijah
Cummings, chairman of the House Oversight Committee, appeared on
MSNBC last Friday night telling the nation that not only is the White
House refusing to comply with his committee's request for information
and that there has been no response whatever from the White House,
but that the ReSCUMlickan minority members have written to the White
House asking that the administration not reply. Similar reports of
noncompliance from other committee's are also emerging though it is
unclear if the minority is similarly acting to sabotage the
legitimate functions of the House.
There
is nothing new to this. The 'Disloyal Opposition', one may
recall, similarly worked to undermine the Obama administration's
foreign policy back in 2015 when they invited Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu to speak before a joint session of Congress
without first discussing, much less clearing, the event with the
White House. A harbinger of a future drift toward partisanship in
Middle Eastern policy with Likkud and ReSCUMlickans walking hand in
hand. But even more destabiling was the action taken by 47
ReSCUMlickan senators, in an unprecedented act of political
mendacity, signing an open letter to the Iranian government stating
that any subsequent president could nullify the agreement “with a
stroke of the pen”, suggesting that bargaining with Obama would
result in, at best, a transient agreement that would be quickly
nullified by the succeeding Administration.(1) The ReSCUMlickan's,
of course, made good on the threat destroying at once continuity in
American foreign affairs and further destabilizing the region in the
bargain.
The
rogue elephant that is the ReSCUMlickan Party is not of Donald
tRUMP's making. Our Caesar Disgustus isn't making the party over in
his own image, he is simply the face on an already deeply malignant
political force. So it should come as little surprise to find them
enabling his increasingly paranoiac, aberrant and deeply troubling
behaviors.
It
would be of minor interest if the questions about which the House
seeks answers were not so serious. What are his ties to Russia?
What obligations does he have? What is motivating this lick-spittle,
sycophantic, even juvenile behavior when it comes to Russia? What is
motivating our Middle Eastern policies? Could it be that there are
real estate transactions behind the moving of our embassy from Tel
Aviv to Jerusalem and tRUMP's recognition of Israeli claims to the
Golan Heights and the West Bank? How much of our policy toward Qatar
and Saudi Arabia are determined by the financial interests of the
tRUMP's and the Kushner's? About these and scores of other questions
the country demands answers.
But
it gets more serious. Reports have surfaced that the clown in charge
of White House security clearances waived objections to over two
dozen top White House officials including the daughter and
son-in-law. Ivanka, who has yet to be called before the House to
explain the trademark grants given her by the Chinese government, and
Jared who has yet not been called to account for the pressuring of
the government of Qatar to provide loans to shore up his teetering
real estate empire. Instead, the ReSCUMlickans in congress are
encouraging this 'president' to obstruct any inquiry over anything
relating to either his finances or his behaviors.
As
the Mueller reports sinks in, this administration is coming under
greater scrutiny. The nation can look for no help from the disloyal
opposition. The rotting ReSCUMlickan Party is too far gone. It is up
to the Democrats and the independents to bring political pressure to
bear.
Disgustus
is stinking up the forum. Disgustus is daring us to impeach him.
Disgustus is a clear and present danger, and major voices within the
Democratic Party recoil at what stands before us.
“An
Br'er Putin, he jus' laugh and laugh”
Impeach
and Imprison.
