We are the drain the swamp people

I just caught a quick segment of Martha McCallum on Fox.

Sometimes it takes the form of “The Law of Convenient Doctrine”

Marc Theissen was saying how there was the claim that the election in November was stolen. He deplored the “fact’ that the press has no credibility and thus was not believed that there was “no evidence” that the election was stolen!

And this, to me seems that the Marc Theissen may be a big part of the problem.

“No evidence”!!!???

If a law enforcement authority produced a dozen “eye witnesses” who claimed they saw ‘Jonathon Doe’ shoot ‘William Moe’, would a prosecutor or a court dismiss the claims of all 12 without investigating to determine the accuracy of their sworn statements? Would they dismiss with remarks like, “but there’s no evidence”…it’s a “baseless charge”… just because Mr. Moe is in a hospital with a gunshot wound and there are photos of Mr. Doe practice- shooting the identical type of weapon used on Moe?

Would we hear, “well that is merely circumstantial, doesn’t actually prove anything. . . not real evidence” In the meantime after perhaps a perfunctory investigation but lots of  stonewalling Doe destroys all he can with impunity  and any subsequent investigation of course comes up “no evidence”.

Would the 12 be dismissed because they have no standing  — because they were not the one shot?   Would the 12 be told to pound sand because “lack of subject matter jurisdiction” the discretion shown by Doe’s friendlies on the court who have no such reticence when they want to do a number on others.

Welcome to the US Supreme Court and adjudication in America!

“Decency” Tell it to your BLM, Antifa and Hollywood messengers

Simple decency indeed

Where were such comments when Minneapolis and Portland and Kenosha, and… were burning, and when people leaving the White House lawn after a speech by the president were assaulted:

Biden on Wednesday evening called for the restoration of ‘simple decency’ after the mob delayed Congress from certifying the results of November’s election.
‘At this hour, our democracy is under unprecedented assault unlike anything we’ve seen in modern times,’ Biden said. He called it ‘an assault on the rule of law like few times we have ever seen it.’
‘I call on this mob to pull back and allow democracy to go forward. ‘
—————————————
And, there was This !:

Chaotic scenes broke out as dozens of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol on Wednesday afternoon

A female Trump supporter was shot in the chest and later died !!!
There was no Antifa or BLM “supporter” fatally shot in all of their ‘uprisings’ that I heard of. Where was the pepper spray?, the stun gun?, the ‘rubber bullets’? the ‘chemical agents (like tear gas)?

It appears that only lethal weapons were available to the law enforcement people at the Capitol.       dlh

• OOHHH! “Insurrection” says Joe Biden.
• Good citizens at wits end
• Well, What Did You Expect, America?

For months the Left, has had free rein throughout this nation, with the approval of the media, the silence of top officials of the Democratic Party, and of that party’s presidential nominee. While arson and looting and attacks on women and men, members of Congress was happening in Seattle, Portland, Kenosha, Minneapolis, Washington DC, the Democrats had nothing to say, no condemnation.

Then, America watched the clear theft of an election and courts did nothing, the media apparently thought it was great news.

Pleas to at least investigate widespread, strong, credible allegations of major fraud and wrongdoing in the election process went unheeded.

Always the media prefaced any story about the election that may have alluded to some irregularities with, “Trump charges, WITHOUT EVIDENCE, BASELESS ALLEGATIONS blah, blah…”

Hundreds of sworn affidavits attesting firsthand observation of illegal, fraudulent activity related to the election were disregarded; Photographic evidence supporting those allegations was ignored…all were dismissed as “baseless’, as “no evidence”; statistical and forensic analyses were disregarded as well.

So. Is America Surprised that, finally after months of leftist violence, illegality, and dangerous behavior, Democratic Party and media sponsored, encouraged, and supported, that the good people of this country have had enough!??

Yes. This is a terrible point we have come to. But don’t lay the blame on those America-loving, courageous, hardworking people demonstrating at the US Capitol in Washington today! Some among them may have gone too far but frustration, even rage, is an inevitable product when legitimate pleas for justice go unheeded, even ridiculed, by the most respected authorities of the land, as they fail to carry out their own duties.

Lay it at the feet of those who have brought it about.

Gutless politicians on both sides of the aisle. uninformed, poorly educated, easily manipulated America-hating millennials, ‘elitists’, Democrat Party leaders, and wildly rich “progressives”…the American Left.       dlh

With both Warnock and Ossuff apparently winning the Georgia senate seats special election, the U S Senate is now firmly in Democrat hands.

Poor “Mittens” Romney can no longer bargain with Chuck Schumer for a cushy committee chairmanship, or some other ‘reward’, in return for his “Jumpin’ Jim Jeffords-style” ‘switch’ from Republican to Democrat.

Had the senate election in Georgia split with one Republican winning and one Democrat, it would have left Mitch McConnell in charge as Majority Leader, 51-49 GOP.

Instead, the unseating of both Republican senators, Perdue and Loeffler, the senate now is 50-50 with Vice President -elect Kamala Harris to cast the vote breaking the deadlock and making Schumer the Majority Leader.

Thus “Mittens” Romney (aka Pierre Delecto) no longer holds a top hand. Because the Democrat majority is effectivley established without him. Mr. Delicto can’t bargain with Schumer for something in return for his de facto disloyalty to the party that supported his election. We firmly believe this is what Romney would have done. He has, we suggest, worn his disloyalty to the Republican president and his party as a badge of honor since coming to the Senate.

So…it appears that a bitter, dishonest “Mittens” didn’t have to so publicly ‘tip his treacherous hand’,and, will remain in the Senate with the GOP caucus, voting with the Democrats when and as needed.

As a now ‘famous’ person says: “LET ‘FWEEDOM’ RING”!       dlh

• Apparently thinks Biden Harris won legitimately and will vote to affirm their election
• Abandons “those who brung her”
• Substantial indications of fraud need not actually be heard prior to affirming an election
• Embarrasses herself in referencing the Constitution
• Implies she knows more about the Constitution than Senators such as Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley graduates of prestigious law schools
• Establishes herself as a candidate for the John Kerry award for trying to shield herself from criticism by referencing military service with regard to a wholly unrelated matter

If you think we have extrapolated too much from the response by Senator Ernst to a constituent who begged her to support efforts such as Senator Cruz’s to audit the presidential vote in states under scrutiny for extensive election fraud and other illegal acts depriving Iowans of the efficacy of their vote under our presidential election process . . . well read for  yourself and decide. Our comments follow.

Dear Ms. Kelly,

Thank you for taking the time to contact me about your perspective on the formal transition to the Biden Administration. It is important for me to hear from folks in Iowa on issues such as this.

On December 14, 2020, the Electoral College voted to officially confirm Joe Biden to be the 46th President of the United States. Under Article II, Section 1, these results are set to be certified by a joint session of Congress in January 2021. President-elect Biden’s inauguration is scheduled for January 20, 2021.

I recognize that for many Iowans, the results of the November 3, 2020 election were disappointing, while for others the results may have been welcome. The beauty of America is that we have the freedoms and rights to express ourselves at the ballot box and within our communities. We can disagree and agree openly with our friends and neighbors and can use our voice to influence what happens in Washington. No matter who sits in the White House, I will continue, as I always have, to work in the Senate for the issues most important to Iowans.

I also recognize that there is an ongoing conversation about transparency, fairness and security within our election system – issues I take very seriously as someone who proudly wore our nation’s uniform in the Iowa Army National Guard and the Army Reserves. I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. I will keep fighting to defend the Constitution.

I am committed to making Washington work for you and please know that I will continue to keep your views in mind going forward. Please feel free to contact my office in the future with any further information, as I always enjoy hearing from Iowans.

Sincerely,

Joni K. Ernst

Senator I am appalled at your response. You have diminished the vote of the great majority of Iowans in the 2020 presidential election by essentially indicating attempts to defraud that vote centered in other states, violating 14th Amendment principles regarding state action and voting rights do not matter.   Your reference to the Constitution “Article II section 1” without mentioning the Twelfth Amendment which largely supplants it (and your obliviousness to what precipitated that Amendment) which provides (arguably) that fraudulent elector counts need not be recognized is a dismissal of most of those who voted for you.  You owe them and the Constitution more than that.

The court’s response has been preposterous “no standing”. More on that in another letter, but for now OK. So the ONLY and last defense is the Congress’s coequal ability to interpret the Constitution and act accordingly as regards the veracity of what has been presented them.  So do your job, hear the evidence. The benefit of any doubt ought to go at least to new elections in contested districts.  Precedent exists, but even if it did not it is entirely plausible as a peaceful solution.

Your reference to Iowans who are pleased with what you refer to as Biden’s election implying ~~  gee wiz I am damned if I do damned if I don’t ~~  is quite pathetic.  Your wrapping yourself in the Iowa flag is actually something more than a little thread bare. How do you serve Iowa’s best interests letting Democrats cheat to win the presidency?  The majority of Iowans voted for Trump and may have had their vote abrogated under our system of presidential elections. How does your position assuredly serve them?

By the way, how do you get legislation signed into law to benefit all Iowans in matters you say are important for all Iowans, with a Democrat executive? How do you even protect your funders interests?  Oh I know, you tell them but for you things would be much worse.

One would think the last full measure, the holding of the line, a commitment to the constitution against, as night follows day, Democrat assaults would at least mean that the  presidential vote ought to be seriously verified prior to turning the keys to so much over to them?

What are you and Democrats afraid of from an audit? Let me repeat, What are you and Democrats afraid of from an audit?

Politically I believe you may have sealed your retirement at the end of your newly elected term.  Certainly a primary challenge by a plausible conservative will receive a lot of support and a general election opponent would have to be egregious before many  Trump voters would cross the street to vote for you again. Democrats can assume you will be vulnerable.

We doubt there will be much enthusiasm for you at campaign events, town halls, or other appearances from rank and file Republicans as your abandonment of so many Iowa voters will likely be seen as betrayal not principle, especially given your dismissal of attempts at constitutional remedies. Or do you think Democrats will come out to show their support? Your next motorcycle entourage won’t stretch a city block unless your staff get some mopeds. Your demeanor in this matter is not a profile in courage -it is a pathetic profile in weakness as to what can be done.

We have not heard from Senator Grassley in response to our constituent letter on this matter and while he certainly has a reserve of bona fides you do not have,  we suspect he will join with you or we would have heard to the contrary.  What we said to him and all Iowa Republican officials in an open letter stands:

The situation is the stuff that can destroy party and national unity. Your patriotic and constitutional laurels are not at issue but be aware that they pale in the face of inaction in such historic moments as this.

There are unprecedented contemporaneous evidenced allegations of voter fraud and official disregard of state statutory and constitutional law in many states sufficient to call into question the parroted but as yet not finalized results.

Your choice to sit back and do nothing is not mitigated by your laurels in such an encompassing matter. It matters not that, we are told, the votes are not there, what matters is where is your vote.

PONDER THIS:

If only one of the two Senate seats in Georgia are ‘flipped’ to Democrats on Tuesday, that body would then retain a Republican majority, 51-49.

One member of that majority and “World’s Greatest Deliberative Body” is a gentleman named “Mitt” Romney (aka Pierre Delicto).

To us, “Mitt” Romney is one of the most dishonorable, dishonest, self-indulgent people in Congress.

And, I suggest the situation described above is exactly the one “Mittens” has longed for since his election as senator from Utah. known by some as the “Jeffords Ploy”… named for “Jumpin Jim”Jeffords” . Jim Jeffords was an American politician who served as US Senator from Vermont (see below.)

How Jim Jeffords single-handedly bent the arc of politics 

But not in a good way.   Other graphics from the Romney file:

Whatever you do, don’t practice what your ‘idol’ (Dimitri) preaches

Unlike many Chiefs fans in the KC area, I was aware of Patrick Mahomes’ leftist leanings. After all, what young sports superstar can resist… toasted by Hollywood’s most outspoken ‘woke’ celebrities, fawned over by the media, ‘adored’ by the fans, regardless of his political naïveté.

Careful there, Patrick… what, or who, you wish for.. least of all someone you seem to admire enough to hang his picture in your luxurious master bathroom. (see earlier post)

As the Chief’s quarterback, Patrick, you should realize that, in Dimitri Lenin’s world, you are “bourgeoisie”*; your teammates, especially the offensive line, and to a great extent, also, your receivers and running backs are the “proletariat”*!

With your new contract, you are earning $50 million plus, per year…many would consider that “wealth”.

But, your offensive line, the people who protect you from 300 lb. ‘blitzing’ linebackers so that you can perform your passing (and running) “magic” make, on the average, ‘only’ about $1 million a year. That’s two percent of your salary, and they will take more of a beating.

By the standards of the folks who pay $35 to $60 for parking for a game at Arrowhead stadium and a minimum of $45 for a regular season ‘nosebleed’ seat to watch you and your teammates, that isn’t a bad paycheck either.

But, Center Dan Kilgore delivers maybe 50 to 100 well placed ‘snaps’ per game and then blocks the 350 lb, guard from ‘sacking’ you, he makes a paltry $750,000/year… less than one fifth of what you do…maybe you’d better hope that he doesn’t come to embrace the ideological stance that you and your ‘hero’, Dimitri Lenin do:

“The more powerful the work, the more powerless the worker.”

Furthermore, how would Comrade Lenin look upon your new home?:

“Money is … not only the object but also the fountainhead of greed.”

And, certainly hope that all those players on the Chiefs’ defense and offense don’t share the views of Comrades Lenin and Marx: “From each according to his (blocking and tackling ) ability, to each according to his needs ($2million homes?)”.

And, “Private property has made us so stupid and partial… “

(Or how about the ‘darling’ of that political party whose views you seem to share, Elizabeth “Pocohantas” Warren. Her sentiment for example, might sound like this in your world, Patrick:

“YOU didn’t build that stadium you play in…taxpayers did! They should get in games for free!”

And, “YOU didn’t stop that beefy ‘front four’ so that you could toss a touchdown pass without getting your jersey dirty!…your ‘underpaid’ offensive line did!”!      dlh

*In Marxism, the bourgeoisie and proletariat are the two major classes that participate in the class struggle. The bourgeoisie own and hoard wealth and resources, while the proletariat are the laborers that make this possible. Communism is a system in which the proletariat, instead, would have control of resources they work for.

Get off your butts and say and do something in support of the Cruz efforts

For elected Republicans and party apparat not to go on record and support audit efforts, NOW prior to January 6th, is to invite primary challenges and or splintering of the party.

The first question we will ask a candidate at primary time at every level — local state federal — is where is the record of your support — evidenced in  timely social media, letters to constituents or other elected officials, vote record,  something public indicating support of efforts now in Congress to insure the integrity of the 2020 Presidential election.  More than gratuitous comments ought to be pursued and those that do will be considered champions.

Those efforts championed by Senator Cruz and Hawley at this writing are the critically important.  It is entirely relevant for local and state politicians in every state to speak out on this matter, not just members of Congress and the Senate, not just those in states under scrutiny for fraud.

This article at The Iowa Standard expresses some of our sentiment but does not go far enough as to current key players.  Also to its credit, the additional link exemplifying a minimum of what is called for is from the same publication.

Any GOP member of Congress who does not object to Electoral College results will not succeed in future presidential efforts

Speaker Pelosi has deigned to “provisionally” seat Mariannette Miller-Meeks as Iowa’s 2nd District Congressman and MMM has been sworn in today. Congratulations.

In a post a week ago we offered that: We’re fine with Rita Hart taking her election case to the Democrat controlled House

We are sure it is not lost on most of our regular readers that our post linked above was intended as rhetorical — using Democrat claims and objections regarding Trump supporters and the pursuit of all legal avenues to insure only legal votes are counted (and only counted once). That would be whether that pursuit involves the courts OR the political process enshrined in the Constitution for resolving disputed elections (while protecting the integrity of the federal system and the nature of a republic).

We were employing their claims in support of Rita Hart (Miller-Meeks opponent) in essence against them to benefit the bigger picture — the case for Trump that the election involved fraud sufficient to mean Biden was not the victor. Losing one CD to the existing Democrat majority is survivable, losing the Presidency to comsymps may not be.

Trump’s and Hart’s are different cases and situations with different legal authorizations and tolerance, which we emphasized. Trump has important claims that must be heard in some venue where the power exists to judge properly and to do something about it. We were in pursuit of a rhetorical point that perhaps might register on superficial dominate media and their influence on low information citizenry.  It was a fools errand of course, the Dems were way ahead of us in chicanery. “Provisional” seating.

We presumed our readers would know the game and challenge the political environs accordingly although we did not have a lot of hope Democrats would have any discretion in seating Hart. We still do not given Pelosi’s weasel words of seating Miller-Meeks”provisionally.”

The Democrat powers that be saw the implications, “the optics,” of Hart’s pursuit vis a vis Trump, as did we, and made the same calculus. The Miller-Meeks/ Hart situation was  prominent and the Dems decided better to put Hart on hold until the presidential situation is resolved. Which is all they really did, thus the “provisional” seating.

It could be that Hart’s case is too sketchy and MMM will be merely allowed the seat while painting a cloud OR, we think more likely given who we are dealing with, once the presidential situation is resolved we suspect they will go ahead and remove MMM and seat Hart. If President Trump prevails (as we pray) they will unseat MMM in a heartbeat to add to what little cushion they have in the House. The same is likely true if Biden is inaugurated.

The big question is will Miller-Meeks pander in any away to keep the seat. We think if she supports Trump’s efforts in the time she is there and all MAGA efforts she will endear herself to her base and have a good chance of re-winning the seat no matter what Democrats do.
