The Late, Not-So-Great Mueller Investigation

Original Article

Posted By: tisHimself, 3/26/2019 8:50:28 AM

Had Hillary Clinton just won the 2016 election, there would have been neither a Mueller investigation nor much talk of Russian collusion. No Trump Victory, No Collusion Investigation A losing Donald Trump would have slunk off to left-wing and Never-Trump ridicule and condemnation — and no investigation about collusion. A defeated Trump would have posed no threat to the 16-year Obama-Clinton progressive project. President Clinton would have been content to let her unverified but lurid dossier rumors hound Trump for the rest of his life, with Trump as the supposed “loser”

I´m sure some people will forever be in denial but it is clear what happened.

The apparatus of the Federal government intelligence community was turned from guarding against foreign threats into a political goon squad. A dossier was fabricated to manufacture an excuse to do so by falsely connecting the political opponent to a foreign threat.

The remaining question is what we as a nation will do about it. Will democrats pass it off as all is fair in love war and politics, the ends justify the means and that anything goes as long as you are convinced your political opponent is that unacceptable. Will winning everything all the time essentially transforming us into a one party system continue to be their desired end? Will the bulk of republican party stay more loyal to the elitist cabal than they are to the principles of constitutional limits on government and individual liberty?

In other words will a government of by and for the people reemerge from this colossal mess? We won´t be denied forever. This is a unique opportunity to take stock of the catastrophic path we are on and to adjust course before severe consequences are unavoidable. For instance if we don´t stop the nonsense about the electoral college we will have returned taxation without representation and I wouldn´t expect that to work out any better than the intolerable acts of the eighteenth century.

Long article full of great reminders of every aspect of this attempted coup. The last paragraph is a kicker but it neglects to mention one thing - as Mark Levin stated on his radio show last night - Mueller has known for months that there was no collusion yet he sat on that information. Why? To negatively influence the midterm elections against Trump and the Republicans. How many people voted for demonrats because they were convinced that the administration and the president had committed crimes?

"This mischievous unreality was a great weight on the back of responsible conservative political thinking." William F. Buckley, Jr.

In 1962, Buckley met a group of senior conservatives in Florida to decide what to do about the John Birch Society. The JBS were well-meaning folks who called themselves conservative and believed that President Eisenhower was a conscious agent of communist conspiracy.

Buckley and company´s decision was brutal. As responsible conservatives, they would publicly disassociate themselves from crackpots whose confused conspiracy theories had damaged conservatism and the country in the process.

Since 2016, Victor Davis Hanson has been published less prominently in NR despite being its most reliable remaining conservative voice. At the same time, Never Trumpers have been featured, starting at the top with Rich Lowry. Objectively, the Never Trumpers managed to be publicly, persistently, and stupidly wrong about pretty much everything leading up to the Trump presidency and haven´t been much use since.

Never Trumpers are the John Birch Society of our contemporary conservative movement and they have to be dealt with. We need to disassociate responsible conservatism from those who embraced the collusion conspiracy theory and tried to bring down our President.

The two men who could have done it are both gone. Buckley passed into the grateful memory of mankind after a lifetime of dedicated service to conservatism. Andrew Breitbart would have had the savvy and courage to do it, but he was taken from us far too soon.

I suspect I will have to look very far forward to see a day when National Review speaks for me again.

I wonder how many of those cowardly 40+ Republicans who vacated their seats in Congress are sorry now. They thought they were on a sinking ship because of the media. Now, they´re out what could have been hefty pensions if they had just been wise to the media and stuck around. Instead, they put this whole debacle in the teeth of the democrats and went home to suck their thumbs. Imbeciles!

MAGA!!! KAG!!! Let´s elect courageous, Constitution-loving, peeps in 2020!!! Take back the House!!!

As for Manafort, Flynn and Stone I say give them some relief!

If they were victims of a perjury trap, pardon them.

If they were guilty of past crimes, that the Justice Department didn´t think were worthy of pursuing at the time, commute their sentence!

Especially Manafort. He was treated so badly by Mueller and the Judge, that his time served is more than enough!

Cohen? Rot in prison!

"Republicans" I suspect will now be flogging the "let´s put it all behind us" horse. As much as I dislike constant investigations it is time to indict a lot of swamp creatures.

Brennan is about to break a leg back-pedaling. Says he "may have" acted on inaccurate information. Follow the sweat and jail as many of them as deserve it (HRC).

Excellent overview of the past years of insanity.

"And now that it is over, we should not forget what it wrought and those who empowered it."

Yes, we should not forget.

We should also be prepared for these same people to continue to assault our Country. They are not going to stop because they lost with Mueller. That is why they need to be ferreted out, identified, and chased out of anything to do with the government. Criminal convictions and jail would be nice as well but it is uncertain if that will be possible. Government agencies at a minimum should clean house. People that were involved should be censored. People now on the outside that were a part of this should have clearances revoked and any access to government denied. This can not be allowed to stand.

A good summary. And I was impressed that Bret Baier had VDH as one of his panelists last night, and VDH said a much compressed, but still bitingly accurate and very condemnational, version of this commentary. Also Baier had Brit Hulme on and Brit was very clear in how badly the media had misbehaved and how thoroughly exonerated the President is.

I really hope VDH will replace Charles Krauthammer as their semi-permanent commentator. He is a far better representative of conservative thought, IMO than Krauthammer, who was a late convert to conservatism, and never a full convert at that, always keeping some roots in his original leftism.

One point that VDH makes that I hope, fervently, will come to pass:

"Let us hope both that Attorney General Barr can now turn to the real illegal behavior of an entire array of Obama-administration officials, and that the public at last can have access to unredacted documents that record their frenzied and illegal efforts."

Many people have much to answer for in the way of crimes, and much prison time is owed. Whether it is every collected remains to be seen.

Narrative, meet thy match: Actuality. On Wednesday, Robert Johnson appeared to indicate he’ll be sticking with Donald Trump when November comes around. During an interview on CNBC’s The Squawk Box, the mogul discussed devils: “As a businessman, I will take the devil I know over the devil I don’t know any time of the week. And that seems to be what business people are confronting today.”  (Snip) Of course, I can’t speak for the man; but I’d assume he wouldn’t be saying the above if he were especially unhappy with Trump’s job. He may not call it an endorsement, but it’s surely a favorable statement.  Correction*

House Republicans are pushing to seal the deal on a host of policies to withdraw vital American industries from China in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
