Vice President Mike Pence has rejected House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s demand that cabinet members of the Trump administration invoke the 25th Amendment:
Speaker Pelosi will now move forward with article of impeachment in the house tomorrow.
We have the reality of around 100 million real MAGA army members staring toward a leftist opposition front containing battalions of cardboard cutouts (mail-in ballots). No amount of media marginalization is ever going to change the reality of that political landscape. That’s why they are trying so hard. Cue Nancy Pelosi:
(Politico) – Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday called for Vice President Mike Pence to immediately initiate the removal of President Donald Trump, declaring him a seditious threat to the country who can’t be trusted to finish even the last two weeks of his term.
Pelosi’s extraordinary statement … lends significant weight to a mounting Democratic effort to oust Trump, either by impeaching him for the second time or pressuring Pence and Cabinet officials to invoke the 25th Amendment process. (read more)
For an incoming administration presenting themselves publicly so confident of their electoral victory, they sure are trying hard to eliminate the voices of dissent. It’s as if the opposition realizes their scheme resulted in minority rule needing to control the masses.
I digress…
I wrote what follows five years ago and was reminded about it today:
Frustrations have boiled over into direct confrontation with DC authorities. As people have stormed the capitol building, President Trump is urging all the DC protestors to remain calm and non violent:
Obviously, the contrast between how media covered the BLM and “resistance” riots in Washington DC for the past 4 years, as compared to today, is quite remarkable. Today the hundreds of thousands of protestors in DC are being outlined as domestic terrorists; and the DC mayor has initiated a curfew.
As people have become increasingly frustrated with how politicians and bureaucrats have disconnected themselves from the voices of the American electorate there was likely to be a confrontation. That overwhelming anger has surfaced in these events today.
It is also widely reported that agents provocateur associated with Antifa and BlackBloc infiltrated the crowd to stir up trouble and create the impression of violent Trump supporters. A false flag operation with intent to cloud/marginalize protestors.
As hundreds of thousands of patriots rally in our nation’s capitol, the House and Senate each debate certification of the electoral college vote for President of the United States.
The electoral votes from the 50 states and the District of Columbia, are read in alphabetical order. The process is spelled out in great detail in the U.S. legal code, right down to the Jan. 6 date and the hour (1 p.m.) at which the joint session begins.
The candidate who reaches 270 electoral votes is the winner. This is the House debate:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has organized new rules for the 117th congress. [pdf here]
Within the rules there are punishments for members who would create or promote memes on their social media; there are a host of new subcommittees established including coronavirus; and interestingly, a new “Ombudsman” filtering position within the whistle-blower process that would protect the Biden administration from exposure of corruption.
Diversity is a paramount issue, including an entire office dedicated to ensure that any witness panel to congress would also have diversity. Yes, “witness diversity.”
The new “Whistle-blower Ombudsman” position is clearly a protective move to keep control of any remaining Trump-era officials that might expose corrupt activity.
Using their ever-familiar anonymous sources; which is to say there are no real sources; a very predictable corporate media narrative started earlier today where pro-Trump rally attendees are shaped as domestic terrorists intended to create havoc and violence in Washington DC. As the DC mayor calls-in the national guard to protect the capital from the unwashed masses, the media strike up the domestic terrorist threat.
The corporate media narrative engineering is as transparent as the fraud perpetrated amid our new banana-republic form of government. The dismissive use of “so called first-amendment” is a nice touch amid the typeset. Methinks, the elites doth protest too much.
BLOOMBERG – U.S. lawmakers are receiving urgent security instructions in advance of potential violence in Washington tied to Wednesday’s joint session of Congress to count Electoral College votes, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The precautions distributed Monday to members of the House and Senate include guidance to use underground tunnels while traveling between chambers in the Capitol and to nearby office buildings during the day, the person said, asking not to be named as the information isn’t public.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell blocked a bipartisan effort to enlarge the COVID relief bill to $2,000. President Trump supports the enhanced relief package. As a consequence, in justifying his maneuver McConnell did something we are all too familiar with. It is time to expose the Decepticon game again; this time people will accept.
[POTUS Tweet Link – Washington Post Link]
At first blush you might ask yourself why Mitch McConnell would block this bill and put the Georgia special election senate races in question. He just handed Georgia democrats an atomic sledgehammer. However, what most people do not understand is how McConnell works; being in the minority position is not adverse to his interests. McConnell operates with a Machiavellian strategy, so we will explain.
Senator McConnell said the $2,000 bill would be attached to two other POTUS priorities including (1) section 230 reform, and (2) a request for congressional review of the 2020 election fraud, both have been requested by President Trump. This is how Mitch McConnell justifies; this is how the GOP will defend his decision; the creation of a false dichotomy is how McConnell works. But watch what he is really doing.
McConnell admits in his floor testimony the three stage bill will take time to assemble. In essence he admits publicly the $2k, 23o reform and 2020 election review committee will take longer than the January 5th Georgia runoff. So he is admitting the toxic political issue of the $2,000 denial will exist to benefit the democrats in the race. Accept this.
Second, McConnell knows a second bill with all three elements will not pass the House. McConnell knows it is a pure political posturing exercise that will produce nothing, yet provide more justification for his blockage.
Representative Mo Brooks of Alabama and Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton discuss the congressman’s challenge to the electoral college vote based on provable voter fraud in several key states. Within the discussion Congressman Mo Brooks outlines the various possibilities outlined in the constitution. Interesting Discussion:
Sunday night President Trump signs HR 133 the $900 billion COVID-19 relief bill and Omnibus spending bill to fund government through September 2021.
According to released press reports, President Trump is signing the bill with rescission requests demanding that portions of the bill be struck from final implementation by the Senate. The President is redlining the bill and providing line-by-line instructions to congress on the provisions within the bill that need to be modified and removed.
The signing of the bill carries a statement from President Trump: ““As President, I have told Congress that I want far less wasteful spending and more money going to the American people in the form of $2,000 checks per adult and $600 per child.”
The statement continues: “The senate will start the process for a vote that will increase checks to $2,000, repeals Section 230, and starts and investigation into voter fraud.”
