Impeachment Weaponized
The Democrats' Disgrace

"What these guys are
doing to this country is a disgrace, and it shouldn't be allowed."
~ President Donald J. Trump
Impeachment and ending President Trump's presidency has been
the sole agenda of the Democrats in Congress, since even before his
inauguration, and the recent Gossip Leaker's third hand information and
"revelations" concerning a phone call between President Trump and
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has sparked allegations of a "quid
pro quo" situation that ignited the latest media dumpster fire and finally
provoked Speaker Nancy Pelosi to call for an "impeachment inquiry" on
September 24th, even though the President has committed no wrong in this
instance. This is the first move in a ruse to deflect from major problems
within the Democratic Party in the lead up to the 2020 election and see
President Trump defeated one way or another, if their wildest desires are
fulfilled.
Unfortunately, America is witness to the death of truth in
this age of disinformation, that has made narratives the political weapon of
choice to harass, neutralize and impede President Trump's policy agenda. Their
big gun of Russian Collusion failed, the "racism" narrative is
failing too, and so now, the Ukraine Quid Pro Quo narrative is next in the
chute.
Democrats assert that President Trump's mention of an
investigation into Hunter Biden, son of Joe Biden -- Democrat candidate for
president, and allegations of corruption regarding his ties to a Ukrainian
energy company is an impeachable offense. They fail to question Hunter's placement on the board of Burisma,
despite a complete lack of any qualifications, other than access to the
Vice-President. They fail to mention that the corruption investigation into Burisma, a Ukrainian gas
company, and Hunter's ties to Burisma was squashed, due to then Vice-President Joe Biden's threat to withhold one billion dollars in aid,
unless Viktor Shokin, Ukraine's top prosecutor, was fired, which
is the real "quid pro quo" they don't want to acknowledge.
One certainly cannot ignore Joe's own words: "I looked at them and
said, 'I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not
getting the money.' Well ... He got fired."
Hypocrisy and the ol' Democratic Party hypocrisy are on full
display, too, since it seems that not a single person was ever concerned over
recent attempts by Democrats to strong arm and coerce Ukraine to continue four
investigations important to Mueller's Russia-Gate/Trump 'collusion"
investigation.
Approximately five months ago, Senators Richard Durbin,
Patrick Leahy and Robert Menendez, all Democrats, wrote a letter to Yuriy Lutsenko, Ukraine's
prosecutor general, expressing concerns over these investigations that were
being closed, and they implied that their support for U.S. assistance to
Ukraine was at stake.
They are pinning their hopes to the transcript, that
President Trump recently released. But isn't it curious that no one knew what
was actually stated in that conversation, not even the so-called "whistle
blower", prior to the Democrats once again, in their ever present
relentless style, screeching out their lies, false claims and cries for impeachment.
There is so much about this story that stinks of another pre-planned
event.
As events and manufactured Constitutional crises continue to
unfold, it brings to mind a not so veiled threat from Senator Chuck Schumer
in January 2017: Schumer stated: "Let me tell you: You take on the
intelligence community -- they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at
you."
And true to those words, the Intel Community has acted as an
adversary and antagonist against the President from that point on. One might
rightly also surmise and suspect that the now rogue CIA has captured The New York Times,
National Public Radio, The Washington Post, The L.A. Times and many other
television cable news networks as well, and they have become a joint force that
represents an enemy of the American people.
One should note that the Gossip Leaker is purportedly a CIA
agent assigned to the White House -- possibly Michael Barry, an assassination expert -- whose
complaint was composed as a legal brief, which
suggests it is the work of several lawyers. The Gossip Leaker's lawyer is Andrew Bakaj, a former CIA employee who once interned for both Senator Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton;
'The Washingtonian' reports that Bakaj "actually wrote the CIA's internal
rules on whistleblowing". If so, Form 401 must have slipped his
mind.
Does anyone really believe this "whistleblower" is
motivated by pure patriotic conscientiousness? I certainly do not.
Gossip Leaker's complaint states: "I was not a direct
witness to most of the events described. However I found my colleagues'
accounts of these events to be credible because, in almost all cases, multiple
officials recounted fact patterns that were consistent with one
another."

Soros-Funded NGO; By Tom
Ozimek; The Epoch Times;

The Intelligent Community Inspector General Form 401 page
ii, Urgent Concern Disclosure Form reads as follows: "In order to find an
urgent concern "credible", the IC IG must be in possession of
reliable, firsthand information. The IC IG cannot transmit information via the
Intel Community Whistleblower Protection Act based on an employee's secondhand
knowledge of wrongdoing. This includes information received from another
person, such as when a fellow employee informs you that he/she witnessed some
type of wrongdoing. ... Similarly, speculation about the existence of
wrongdoing does not provide sufficient legal basis to meet the statutory
requirements of the ICWPA."
In other words, secondhand information must be dismissed out
of hand. And if this Leaker was so concerned, he should have approached each of
the "multiple" people with firsthand information and pressed them to
come forward. Why hasn't anyone with firsthand information presented a similar
concern?
Updated info: I am evidently using the old 401
guidelines. Judge Jeanine just reported this evening - Sept 24th - that the rules concerning whistleblower
information was changed to accept hearsay info, just 2 days
before the CIA whistleblower wrote his complaint; this changes things to a
certain degree, but it doesn't change the deception or the corruption we are
witnessing from our own intelligence community, as they try to circumvent a
long held policy of rejecting hearsay and second and third hand
conversations.
More details on suspicious Whistleblower source changes: Intel Community Secretly Gutted Requirement Of First-Hand
Whistleblower Knowledge; By Sean Davis; The Federalist;
9/27/19
Screengrab of changes from The Federalist:
How the Inspector General ever determined the complaint was
both "credible" and "urgent" is beyond me. The Department
of National Intelligence did not see it to be a valid complaint, due to the
lack of evidence supporting the complaint, and the DNI refused to release it to
Congress.
Moments prior to testimony given by acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire, Representative Devin Nunes (R), member of the House Intelligence Committee,
recently stated: "The Inspector General did not know the
contents of the phone call at issue. The Inspector General found that the
whistleblower displayed arguable political bias against Trump. The Department
of Justice investigated the complaint and determined no action was
warranted."
There isn't anything within the released transcript that
arises to the level of a crime or an impeachable offense. President Zelensky was unaware that a previously approved
U.S. defense package had been suspended, so a quid
pro quo couldn't have existed. He also has definitively stated that he was not placed under any pressure
from President Trump, who only mention the Biden
corruption case once. President Trump did not ask for fabricated evidence
against Joe Biden eight times as asserted by Representative Adam Schiff, a liar of unparalleled notoriety.
[Bold Emphasis Blog Editor’s]
However, the news isn't good, as the Democrats contort
themselves in a manner that would rival the most daring circus acts, to find
something, anything, sinister in the quotes from Pres. Trump's phone call with
Pres. Zelensky. High crimes, misdemeanors and illegal acts exist in the Gossip
Leaker's complaint only in the minds and black hearts of Trump's fiercest
critics, which shouldn't surprise anyone given the lack of integrity and
literacy regarding the law, in their ranks; whistleblower laws are meant to
protect brave souls who seek to stop any malfeasance and abuse of power, and
they do not extend to miscreants seeking to use the law as a weapon against the
President of the United States.
The Democrats haven't formalized the impeachment process
yet, since this is still an investigation in search of a crime. Once they
actually win a vote in the House to move forward with impeachment, they will
have to afford President Trump due process under the law.
Isn't it ironic to find that Representative Adam Schiff once
cautioned against an unwarranted push for impeachment?
On May 4th 2018, Adam Schiff wrote:
"Impeachment is an extraordinary remedy, not to be entertained lightly,
and in the case of a president, would mean putting the country through a deeply
wrenching process. It is instead a remedy that must be considered soberly,
mindful of the fact that removing a president from office should be the
recourse for only the most serious transgressions.
Should the facts warrant impeachment, that case will be made
more difficult politically if part of the country feels that removing Mr. Trump
is the result that some of their fellow Americans were wishing for all
along."
Republican president or Democrat president, it matters not
one bit, if a real crime has been committed against the United States by any
president on any given day and he has betrayed the office, the Constitution and
the trust of the American people, such a president must be removed. But this
isn't the time or such a case to go to such an extreme measure and use what
once was a rare tool in the hands of Congress to be used at a point of grave crisis
in American life, and more importantly, we, the American people, must stop
allowing impeachment to be abused and ever more and increasingly weaponized by
any political party intent on preserving its own power, in the current manner
of the Democratic Party, which has already introduced articles of impeachment
against President Trump on four occasions.
Something or somebody needs to do all within their ability
and authority to end these seditious turpitudes. The machinery of the law must
be turned on those who would betray America to Her enemies and the Deep State.
U.S. Attorney General William Barr has the opportunity to do just that, so long
as he doesn't tarry too long and he strikes while the iron is hot.
This is a struggle that pits the American people and
President Trump, who are fighting to preserve American traditions, principles
and sovereignty, against Deep State agents and Communist bureaucratic academics
deep within our federal government and their Democratic Party supporters among
half the nation, who hold an unhinged hatred of Trump and currently seem to
answer to transnationalists and globalists and have our nation's destiny in an
iron grip. They are unleashing everything imaginable and then some, unmindful
of the push their actions give towards civil war, in their effort to undermine
the Trump administration, making it more apparent than ever, that President
Trump must purge the CIA and many other agencies, under the Executive Branch

counter multiple Democratic Party initiated seditious shenanigans and acts of
outright treason against America, aimed at undoing the results of the 2016
election.
