‘Outrageous Abuse of Power’: Republicans Call For Investigations Into Democrats’ Expected Trump Arrest
Post Date: 2023-03-19 07:29:18 by Ada

"This is what they do in communist countries," says Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Congressional Republicans blasted the Democrats’ plans to arrest former President Donald Trump next week over a case related to porn star Stormy Daniels, calling the effort a political witch hunt and pledging to launch investigations into the matter. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy began by calling for a congressional probe into whether federal funds are being used to “subvert democracy” with “politically motivated prosecutions” given that Trump is the leading Republican presidential candidate for 2024. “Here we go again — an outrageous abuse of power by a radical ...

Breaking: Preparations underway for Trump’s arrest, Secret Service debating if they’ll handcuff him…

Rumors have been swirling all day that President Trump’s arrest was on the horizon. Trump is under criminal investigation by the politicized Manhattan District Attorney’s Office in connection to “hush money” payments to Stormy Daniels just before the 2016 presidential election. Recall that Stormy Daniels’ erstwhile lawyer, AKA “creepy porn lawyer” Michael Avenatti was sentenced to four years in prison for stealing from his porn star client “Stormy Daniels.” Many believe Trump’s arrest is imminent, and some familiar with the case tell Revolver it could come as early as Monday. This outrageous possibility reflects the latest desperate ...

Separate Money and the State

The United States once had the finest monetary system in history. It was a system that the U.S. Constitution established. It was a system in which the official money of the United States consisted of gold coins and silver coins. We often hear that the “gold standard” was a system in which paper money was “backed by gold.” Nothing could be further from the truth. There was no paper money in the United States. That’s because the Constitution did not empower the federal government to issue paper money. It also expressly prohibited the states from issuing paper money. The Constitution used the term “bills of credit.” That was the term people at that time ...

Time to rip up the president’s blank check for war

The 2002 military authorization — up for a vote today — is largely symbolic. The 2001 AUMF is what’s being used to justify all post-9/11 interventions. In a Senate Foreign Relations Committee meeting recently, we debated repealing the 2002 Authorization for the Iraq War. The Iraq War ended long ago. You’d think it would be unanimously agreed to end a war that’s already over. But, if we stop with just repealing the Iraq War authorization, I fear nothing will change. We need to take the additional step of also repealing the Authorization for the war in Afghanistan. The 2001 authorization to bring the 9/11 terrorists to justice was warranted, but like the Iraq ...

Ron DeSantis says backing Ukraine is not in the U.S. interest, a sign of a GOP divided

Republican party leaders are split on whether the United States should continue to back Ukraine with billions of dollars of military equipment and aid, a rift that seems likely to become a major issue in the 2024 presidential election. The latest sign of the GOP divide on Russia's war in Ukraine comes from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is seen as one of the top contenders in the Republican race to become the party's nominee. DeSantis joined former President Donald Trump — another leading GOP contender — in opposing U.S. support for Ukraine. They outlined their positions in a survey of potential 2024 Republican candidates done by Fox News host Tucker Carlson. ...

House Democrats Attack Messengers in ‘Politicization of Government’ Hearing

I often joke that I survived Washington because I had low expectations, but last week’s hearing of the House Weaponization of the Federal Government subcommittee would have tested the lowest of my low expectations. The purpose of the subcommittee is to look into the politicization of US government agencies and its effect on our civil liberties. But last week’s inaugural hearing of the committee was not at all a good look for the Democrats, who brought nothing but insults for the witnesses. Things got off on the wrong foot very quickly, as Democrat committee Members seemed less interested in what witnesses Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger had to say than in attacking the ...

With the Twitter Files, Democrats Support Government Censorship of Lawful Speech

Welcome to the era of state-sponsored thought police Reprinted from Bracing Views with the author’s permission. Yesterday, journalists Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger testified before the House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. Their testimony, and the risible reactions of Democrats on the subcommittee, are well worth watching; I watched the entire hearing, which lasted 140 minutes. Kim Iverson has an excellent summary here which lasts about 23 minutes. As Iverson notes, the Democrats on the subcommittee demonized the journalists while supporting censorship of ordinary Americans for political advantage, a clear violation of freedom of speech ...

The US Government and its political apologists have repeatedly called the Seymour Hersh expose of what really happened, the who, how, and why of Nordstream 1 and 2 fantasy, fiction and completely false. All of a sudden, “US government investigators” have identified a vessel from which the Nord Stream sabotage was committed and …wait for it…. traces to a company owned by Ukrainians, according to new reports in Die Zeit and the New York Times, and well, everywhere! Who’d a’ thunk it? The pipeline sabotage was an act of war by the United States, as explained and documented a few weeks ago by Seymour Hersh with his extensive range of deep state sources. A major ...

Ukraine’s Endgame

The Biden administration is setting the Ukrainians up for a state of permanent dependency. The one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion today, and President Joe Biden’s surprise five hour trip to Kiev on Monday, should be occasion to raise some uncomfortable, indeed, unpopular questions, as to what exactly Ukraine—a beneficiary of, among many other things, over $100 billion in U.S. aid—has been seeking to achieve in the nine years since the Maidan revolution. From the time Ukraine declared independence on August 24, 1991, until the Maidan coup of February 2014, Ukraine was essentially a binational kleptocracy that used its position as a buffer state, particularly in ...

The resolution would direct President Biden to withdraw all US troops from Syria within 180 days The Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) is urging all of its members in the House of Representatives to vote “yes” on a Syria War Powers Resolution introduced by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) scheduled to be voted on Wednesday. The resolution would direct President Biden to withdraw all US troops from Syria within 180 days. According to The Intercept, the CPC circulated a message to its 100 members in the House. The message said that the effort is “largely consistent with previous bipartisan efforts led by CPC Members to terminate such unauthorized military presence within one ...

Biden should beware of making the Poles co-guarantors of order in Europe. The president is in Poland. After keeping the Polish government in suspense for a month after Joe Biden announced his willingness to visit Warsaw, his administration finally confirmed the president would travel to Poland to mark the first anniversary of Russia's tragic war on Ukraine. Biden also made a surprise visit to Ukraine to meet President Volodymyr Zelensky yesterday. As Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre explained, President Joe Biden will meet with his Polish counterpart Andrzej Duda to discuss bilateral ties and their mutual commitment to support the Ukrainian cause “for as long as it ...

War and Indifference

Which is more destructive to personal liberty, a government that engages in secret acts of war or a public and news media that are indifferent to it? In the current American toxic stew of anti-Russian hatred and beating the drums of war – in President Joe Biden’s America – we have both. Here is the backstory. The war in Ukraine is now in its 12th month. It has become a slow, inexorable movement westward for Russian military forces and painful migrations of 5 million Ukrainians out of their country, to say nothing of the losses of between 130,000 and 150,000 Ukraine troops. Congress has authorized the president to spend up to $100 billion in borrowed dollars in support of ...

'We need to clean house of all of the warmongers and America-Last globalists in the Deep State, the Pentagon, the State Department, and the national security industrial complex,' former president states. President Donald Trump unveiled his plan to stop “America Last Deep State” globalists and warmongers from starting World War III. In a video posted to social media Tuesday, the former president described how “World War III has never been closer than it is right now,” and called out warmongers in the State Department for not only supporting Ukraine’s volatile conflict with Russia, but for also supporting the bloody Maidan Revolution uprisings in Ukraine ...

KYIV — Multiple insider sources reported a hushed nervousness was felt throughout President Joe Biden's entire entourage today as he arrived in Kyiv, Ukraine for his annual performance review with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. "He's really hoping this meeting goes well," said one White House insider. "The President has been working really hard over the past year to do a good job for his superiors, and he's wanting it to pay off for him in this performance review. His commitment to working for Ukraine — sending all the weapons, military equipment, and taxpayer dollars — really speaks for itself." President Biden seemed oblivious to ...

Why Madison & Hamilton Were Wrong about Republics
Post Date: 2023-02-21 09:17:21 by Ada

Today's supporters of the Federalist project, however, tend to unquestioningly accept the superficial and dismissive "analysis" of other republics offered in The Federalist Paper by its authors. Hamilton and Madison, however, were likely driven less by a desire for honest inquiry than a desire to get through their political platform of a new centralized national government. The debate between the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists in the late eighteenth century was fundamentally a debate over whether or not Americans wanted or needed a large national state. Thus, in their effort to push ratification of the new constitution, the Federalists employed a wide variety of ...

Congress Has the Chance to End Endless Wars
Post Date: 2023-02-17 07:12:29 by Ada

The president is not to be entrusted with the declaration of war. The U.S. has been constantly at war over the last two decades. Rather than go to the American people to justify new wars, however, successive presidents relied on past authorizations dating back to the 1991 Gulf War. Some of these enactments were flawed from the start. For instance, the George W. Bush administration backed its Iraq request with fake evidence of alleged Iraqi WMD programs. Article 1, Section 8 is clear: Congress is supposed to declare war. The legislature’s consistent failure to do so is not a problem of institutional design or constitutional language. Rather, a mix of political ambition and cowardice ...

Decorum Propels DC Deceit

The uproar over the State of the Union heckling illustrates how DC standards of decorum in DC can subvert any effort to put a leash on politicians. During Tuesday’s State of the Union address, President Joe Biden uncorked a series of howlers that eventually spurred heckling from Republican members of Congress. Pundits raced to condemn the backlash to Biden “You saw real white trash on display,” declared James Carville on MSNBC. Carville, who served as President Bill Clinton’s hit man, claimed he had a “the equivalent of a Ph.D. in white trashology.” When Paula Jones charged Clinton with sexual assault in 1994, Carville responded, “You drag $100 bills ...

Why the 1787 Constitution Did Not Bring Republican Government to America

One of the many myths that schoolchildren are taught in the name of American exceptionalism is the idea that the Americans finally embraced a republican form of government at the Constitutional Convention in 1787. This, we are told, was revolutionary. The usual narrative goes something like this: In ancient times, the world saw the rise of republics in Italy and Greece. The Roman Republic was notable for its virtue and its status as a government of the people. But the Roman Republic, like the small Greek republics, was but short lived and was destroyed by the temptations of empire and despotism. But then came the so-called American experiment. This new, noble experiment sprang up when ...

Rep. Matt Gaetz Leads Resolution Calling to End Support for Ukraine, Pushes for Peace

The Ukraine Fatigue Resolution is sponsored by Gaetz and 10 other GOP reps Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) introduced a resolution on Thursday that calls for an immediate end to US military and financial support for Ukraine and urges the warring sides to negotiate a ceasefire. The Ukraine Fatigue Resolution was led by Gaetz and received 10 other co-sponsors. If passed, it would express that it is the sense of the House that “the United States must end its military and financial aid to Ukraine” and urges “all combatants to reach a peace agreement.” Throughout the war, Gaetz has been critical of US support for Ukraine and has previously called for an end to the policy. ...

(Sales) Taxation is Theft – Ron Paul
Post Date: 2023-02-07 08:14:11 by Ada

The American people will not be free from tax tyranny until government is returned to its constitutional limitations. A group of House Republicans is supporting legislation that would replace federal income, payroll, estate, and gift taxes with a 30 percent national sales tax. The bill also eliminates the Internal Revenue Service, giving states the responsibility to collect the sales tax and send the revenue to DC. This deputizing of states to act as federal tax collectors violates the principles of federalism, especially since the plan forces states that have chosen not to make their residents pay sales taxes create a mechanism for collecting sales tax. A 30 percent sales tax on all ...

Why Not Defund the Military?
Post Date: 2023-02-02 08:11:47 by Ada

Amidst all the talk about defunding the police, notice something important: No one talks about defunding the military. That’s because the military establishment is too powerful and has come to be accepted as a permanent feature in American life. Except for libertarians, everyone treats the military as their god. But defunding the military, whose taxpayer-funded largess is now around $800 billion per year, is precisely what we need to do. This is especially true given the out-of-control spending, debt, and monetary debauchery that is threatening to take our country down from within, not to mention the fact that the military establishment is now doing everything it can to embroil the ...
