If there is a tragedy in American
history, it should be a look back on the criminality that exists amidst the
Democratic Party. The Dems are transforming America at all costs away from
our nation’s Founding Principles and the Christian Heritage that has been the
essence of a moral backbone. The Dems have committed crimes excused by the MSM
to perpetuate a transformed America. The transformation tarnishes any light
inspiring immigrants to become Americans based on self-reliance. Rather the Dem
paradigm is to attract immigrants inspiring socialist handouts & government
dependence.
The former moral backbone once led President Reagan to call
American Heritage a shining city on a hill.
President Reagan spoke of people coming to America to work
hard to become a part of American success and NOT promote a Socialist
government dependency. The Dem transformation increasingly dims the light that
has made America great. An extinguished light on a hill merely transform
America into a government by ruling elitists instead of by WE THE PEOPLE.

Address from the Oval Office, 1/11/89

"Ye are the light of the
world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid." -- Matthew 5:14 (KJV)
I also like this quote writing about President Reagan:
Central to this hope and faith in
the American people was Reagan’s belief in American exceptionalism. He restored
that concept to the national vocabulary in a time when many Americans—and
certainly the nation’s political, educational, and cultural elites—had lost
sight of it.
In his election eve address in
1980, the day before he would be elected president, Reagan described his vision
of America by referring to the aims of the Puritans who settled Massachusetts
in the 1600s:
I have quoted John Winthrop's
words more than once on the campaign trail this year—for I believe that
Americans in 1980 are every bit as committed to that vision of a shining
"city on a hill" as were those long-ago settlers....
These visitors to that city on the
Potomac do not come as white or black, red or yellow; they are not Jews or
Christians; conservatives or liberals; or Democrats or Republicans. They are
Americans awed by what has gone before, proud of what for them is still … a
shining city on a hill.
For Reagan, as for the Puritans,
exceptionalism was more than just a natural process or a product of the
nation’s history and geographical position. As far back as 1952, presenting the
commencement address to William Woods College, Reagan invoked the idea of
America as a nation chosen by God for a special purpose: “I, in my own mind,
have always thought of America as a place in the divine scheme of things that
was set aside as a promised land.”
Winthrop, it is crucial to note,
was not saying that America is by nature great. Quite the contrary, Winthrop’s
point was that the American colonies, having been explicitly founded as free,
Christian states, bore a responsibility, indeed a burden, unique among the
nations of the world:
For we must consider that we shall
be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us. So that if we
shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause
Him to withdraw His present help from us, we shall be made a story and a
by-word through the world. We shall open the mouths of enemies to speak
evil of the ways of God, and all professors for God's sake. We shall shame the
faces of many of God's worthy servants, and cause their prayers to be turned
into curses upon us till we be consumed out of the good land whither we are
going. (RONALD
REAGAN’S AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM; By S.T. Karnick; The Heartland Institute;
2/6/17)
AND YET America’s
Dems and their duped supporters have come severely close into turning America
into a cesspool of criminal elitists who have placed themselves above the rule
of law.
The ONLY way I see a reversal of this normalized
crime-ridden political curse is to at least have the Dem criminals face the
decision of a jury.
BEGINNING WITH but not limited to Crooked Hillary and clan. The Gateway Pundit
reporting on Tom Fitton’s quest to find the truth points out that President
Trump’s DOJ and State Department are actively thwarting the discovery of the
truth.
President Trump needs to step up to the 2016 campaign
rhetoric and clear the way to “lock her up”. The Mainstream Media (MSM) clears
little for the truth because they have shown themselves to be the propaganda
wing of the criminal Dems.
NO MATTER how President Trump proceeds, he will be
castigated by the MSM and once loyal Dem Party members in Congress. I can just
say, “Screw’em and proceed President Trump!”

BREAKING: DOJ Colluding With
Clinton Email Scandal Witnesses to Thwart Court-Ordered Discovery Efforts by
Judicial Watch
December 26, 2018
Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch revealed on
Wednesday that the DOJ is colluding with Hillary Clinton email scandal
witnesses to thwart court-ordered discovery to stop the watchdog’s efforts to
gather evidence.
Judicial Watch appeared in a DC federal court last month on
a motion to compel more testimony from Hillary Clinton as well as to make
public video recordings of depositions of top Clinton aides such as Huma Abedin
and Cheryl Mills.
The court ruled that Hillary Clinton must answer more questions about
the setting up of her private server.
Hillary Clinton arrogantly answered that she set up the
private server out of “convenience.”
Earlier this month, a
federal court blasted the DOJ and State Department on Hillary
Clinton’s emails and ordered a discovery plan in 10 days as to whether
Hillary’s private email system was intentionally set up to evade FOIA requests
and lawsuits.
Judge Lamberth said Hillary Clinton’s private server was
“One of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.”
Specially, Lamberth ruled:
… the Court ORDERS the parties
to meet and confer to plan discovery into (a) whether Hillary Clinton’s use of
a private email while Secretary of State was an intentional attempt to evade
FOIA; (b) whether the State Department’s attempts to settle this case in late
2014 and early 2015 amounted to bad faith; and (c) whether State has adequately
searched for records responsive to Judicial Watch’s requests.
Terming Clinton’s use of her
private email system, “one of the gravest modern offenses to government
transparency,” Lamberth wrote in his MEMORANDUM OPINION:
Although Judicial Watch refuses to back down, the Justice
Department is actively working to stop the watchdog’s efforts to gather
evidence in federal court.
Tom Fitton was furious that the DOJ is working to block
their discovery efforts.
“Outrageously, this Justice Department is colluding with Clinton email scandal to stop our efforts to gather evidence in federal court. President Trump should ask this Justice Department why it’s still protecting Hillary Clinton,” Tom Fitton said Wednesday.
