Impeachment – the Convoluted Way We Got Here

January 22, 2020By the Common Constitutionalist

Never-Trumper Republicans working on the 2016 election platform, the FBI, the Mueller bunch, disgruntled convention delegates, the Clinton/Steele dossier, smarmy democrats, leftist media, etc., etc. – all combined to get us to where we are now – sham impeachment articles, having nothing at all to with they originally claimed, and heading into a Senate trial.

Here’s how we arrived.

The Carter Page/Ukraine Lie That Kept On Lying for Mueller and the FBI

The FBI and Special Counsel Robert Mueller repeatedly kept alive a damning narrative that investigators knew to be false: namely, that a junior Trump campaign aide as a favor to the Kremlin had “gutted” an anti-Russia and pro-Ukraine plank in the Republican Party platform at the GOP’s 2016 convention.

Federal authorities used this claim to help secure spy warrants on the aide in question, Carter Page, suggesting to the court that he was “an agent of Russia” – even though investigators knew that Page was working for U.S., not Russian, intelligence, and that they had learned from witnesses, emails and other evidence that Page had no role in drafting the Ukraine platform plank.

The revelation is buried in the Justice Department watchdog’s just-released report on FISA surveillance abuses. RealClearInvestigations fleshed out this unreported story with footnotes from the Mueller report and exclusive interviews with Trump campaign officials who worked on the convention platform. read more

Dems Whine about Facebook?

January 10, 2020By the Common Constitutionalist

Well this is rich!

The second things don’t go the way they want, leftist progressive statists whine like stuck pigs. And my apology to stuck pigs.

Facebook finally releases what appears to be a reasonable and fair ad policy prior to the 2020 election heating up, and because the dems get no advantage from it, they claim that Zuckerberg, of

all people, is getting his marching orders from president Trump.

And as government statists always do, they wield the power of the federal government as a bludgeon to threaten a private company.

Like I said – this is rich.

from NewsBusters:

The media and Democrats want to limit Facebook ads before the 2020 election. But Facebook refused to cave in to their demands.

In a Jan. 9 blog post published by Facebook Director of Product Management Rob Leathern, the company argued that “we don’t think decisions about political ads should be made by private companies.” Facebook stated that its principle was that “people should be able to hear from those who wish to lead them, warts and all, and that what they say should be scrutinized and debated in public.” read more

Video Podcast – OK Symbol Investigated – Sanctuary Update

December 22, 2019By the Common Constitutionalist

by: Brent Smith

At the Army-Navy football game last week, cadets were caught playing the “circle game” on national television. An official investigation by West Point confirms it was indeed the “circle game” and not a “white power” symbol as many media outlets reported.

I discuss why they needed to “investigate” this silly incident in the first place, all to appease the perpetually offended left.

It’s been reported that “Hundreds of Municipalities from One State Declare Themselves 2nd Amendment Sanctuaries.”

The democrat Virginia Attorney General insists that these sanctuaries cannot nullify state laws, but of course the leftist that he is, can’t comprehend the supremacy of the Constitution and the Amendments contained therein. read more

To the Left: As You Sow – So Shall You Reap

October 26, 2019By the Common Constitutionalist

from Zero Hedge:

Beware The Sound Of Shoes Dropping In The Night

It was interesting to watch the Cable News divas go incandescent under the glare of their own gaslight late yesterday when they received the unpleasant news that the Barr & Durham “review” of RussiaGate had been officially upgraded to a “criminal investigation.”

Rachel Maddow’s trademark pouty-face got a workout as she strained to imagine “…what the thing is that Durham might be looking into.” Yes, that’s a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, all right… with a sputtering fuse sticking out of it. Welcome to the Wile E. Coyote Lookalike Club, Rache. You’ll have a lot of competition when the Sunday morning news-chat shows rev up. read more

Project Veritas Exposes Zucker and CNN

October 18, 2019By the Common Constitutionalist

James O’Keefe of Project Veritas just released a new video exposing CNN as exactly what we all thought they were – all Trump, all the time. And worse, he has the video and audio that proves that not all CNN employees are on board. Many actually long for the good old days when all they did was report the news – when they actually sent news crews out to cover stories.

It’s a fascinating look inside the belly of the anti-Trump beast, and confirms that the 24/7 anti-Trump coverage does comes from the top – from CEO Jeff Zucker.

And frankly, at times, I found myself feeling a bit sorry for some of the CNN employees.

It’s a real eye-opener. Enjoy the video: read more

The Democrats and Faux-Impeachment

October 8, 2019By the Common Constitutionalist

by: Brent Smith

Scroll Down for Audio Version

If they have their way, the democrats, I mean the professional political class, will never have to bring this Trump impeachment nonsense to a vote, because it’s not now and never was about impeachment.

Oh sure, if they could impeach and somehow remove Trump from office, that would be the cherry on top of the sundae, but the dems, at least the ones in senior leadership, the ones in the know and who likely concocted this whole scheme, are only doing this really for the issue. They believe it’s a win-win. Actually it’s a win-win-win.

First they get to clog up the system, so that no more of Trump’s agenda can be advanced – you know, because democrats take impeachment soooooo seriously, even faux-impeachment. Second, from a democrat point-of-view, they get a made for TV election year issue to run on. And third, no democrat has to be accountable, for an “official” vote was never cast in House, as is the rule.

It’s why those in the Trump administration who received notification letters to appear before the House committee can just refuse to do so without consequence.

All the Trump people have thumbed their noses at Schiff and the House democrats – refusing to testify. read more

There Must be a Way to Hold Congress Accountable!

September 27, 2019By the Common Constitutionalist

We all know that Democrats are liars, but this takes the cake. Adam Schiff has proven to be the biggest dirtbag on Capital Hill, and that’s a hell of an accomplishment! And the fact that he was permitted to read his tall tale into the Congressional record, frankly should be a crime. Every word was a lie. And the Republicans just sat there and let it happen!

from the Boston Herald:

Don’t like the facts? Just Schiff the narrative

First we were told the phone call was, as The Washington Post breathlessly wrote, “so troubling that it prompted an official in the US intelligence community to file a formal whistleblower complaint.”

Then we actually got the transcript, and it was nothing, so we were informed by CNN that we had “to read between the lines.”

In other words, as the crooked FBI agent said of the Russian collusion hoax, there is no there there. So it was time for the Democrats to … just plain make it up. read more

Is the FBI Still for Sale?

September 25, 2019By the Common Constitutionalist

Is this still going on? We here blockbuster stories of corruption in our government. It’s reported on with a big splash and a major headline and then nothing. We don’t ever get reports of anyone being held to account – few get fired, and no one goes to prison.

Have we heard any follow up on whether our premier investigative service has been straightened out, or is the for sale sign still out.

This report is from 2018, yet for many, it may be the first we’ve heard.

Have we had an update since, or has it gone back to business as usual, regardless of who is in the Whitehouse.
