I know from the headline, it appears this story is about Donald J. Trump [Emperor with no clothes] and in a way it is about him.
However, it is really about how our “Dear Leader” has damaged the political process and turned the GOP into a fully functional fascist political “Cult” masquerading as a genuine democratic political party calling itself the Republican Party.
Or as it is also known, the GOP [Greed Over Principle]!
In the US Senate the cult is in control. As the majority “party”, it dominates the political landscape and prevents under the domination of “Moscow” Mitch McConnell, the legitimate democratic aspirations of the American people from being achieved.
It is also about Lindsey Graham, chairman of the powerful US Senate Judiciary Committee.
ON Thursday, November 21, 2019, former National Security Council [NSC] Intelligence expert Fiona Hill testified before the House Impeachment Inquiry.
Fiona Hill worked for former NSC chairman John Bolton prior to his resignation/firing [depending on whom you believe], and she testified that:
“The allegations that Ukraine [instead of Russia] systematically interfered in the 2016 Presidential election are false.”
According to expert Fiona Hill, “that narrative comes directly from the Russian Intelligence Services at the direction of Russian President Putin” and was promulgated and promoted by Russia to deflect attention away from their interference in the US Presidential Election in 2016.
On Friday, November 22, 2019, it was reported in the press that “national security officials working for the NSC have briefed US Senators that the Ukraine allegations are a Russian Hoax perpetrated by Vladimir Putin to undermine factual allegations that Russia NOT Ukraine systematically interfered in the 2016 US Election”.
However, now US Senate Judiciary Chairman, Lindsey Graham, has announced his intention with a letter, to “hold hearings as Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee” into allegations about Ukraine, Barisma, and the Bidens [Joe and Hunter]!
You really can’t make this stuff up, folks. You don’t have to, because Lindsey Graham listening to our deeply disturbed, deranged, demented, delusional and dangerous Dear Leader, is willing to ignore the factual information provided to him by NSC intelligence experts to satisfy our Dear Leaders efforts to undermine one of his domestic political opponents, Joe Biden, and satisfy his paranoid mindset.
Now, admittedly, according to the ruling of the SCOTUS, such behavior by Lindsey Graham is not treasonous, but it most assuredly is traitorous!
It undermines our National Security; emboldens an existential enemy, Russia, to interfere again in 2020 [Russia already meddled in 2018], and encourages a false narrative that our ally, Ukraine, is nefariously undermining our elections.
Thus far, the Impeachment Inquiry, has fundamentally established the inescapable fact that Donald J. Trump, “Dear Leader”, actively pursued an effort to bribe our Ally Ukraine, to promote his private political interests, withholding taxpayer money for the defense of that ally from military aggression by Russia in an active, “hot” [shooting] war in Ukraine!
So, we must not delay; we must not defer; we must not be dilatory! We must move forward with the Impeachment of Donald J. Trump and we must demand that the US Senate do their democratic duty and hold him accountable for his illegal behavior; for his abuse of power; for his bribery; for his extortion of our democratic ally Ukraine.
Enough is enough! Trump is deeply disturbed; deranged; delusional, demented; undemocratic and dangerous to our Constitutional republic and the Rule of Law upon which our country is based.
