Actively Hampering the Executive Branch is Treason

During the 2016 campaign Hillary Clinton and her backers conspired to frame Donald Trump and portray him as a Russian colluder. Then, EVERY DAY for the rest of his administration they hounded him.

Hillary went on dozens of major media interviews claiming that Donald Trump was an illegitimate president. She, above all, knew that he was not. She knew that every time Adam Schiff and others opened their mouths about Trump, they told lies. 

If only the ruse went that far. For at least six years now, top Democrats have enjoyed the perpetuation of this treasonous hoax and, sadly, nearly half of Democrats still believe that Trump colluded with Russia. 

Obama Knew From the Outset 

Barack Obama was aware of the scheme from the outset, while he was still in the White House. Joe Biden knew about it as did James Clapper. CIA Director John Brennan briefed Obama, Joe Biden, FBI Director James Comey, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and other senior administration officials. 

These top Democrat office holders went silent as the FBI initiated Crossfire Hurricane on the wild claim that Donald Trump was a Russian agent.

The Mueller Commission knew about the scheme and proceeded anyway. After two months of searching they knew they had nothing on Trump, but shamefully continued for two years, daily badgering and intimidating his key staff people and his family. They interrogated Trump’s advisors and hit some of them with unrelated process crimes. 

Andrew Weissmann, Mueller’s chief bulldog, knew as well that he had nothing on Trump and yet he continued to harass the Trump White House, forcing hundreds of hours of testimony, wasting millions of tax dollars.

 The Complicit Press

The New York Times, under the sordid leadership of Dean Baquet, made Trump-Russia collusion a daily topic. Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC, and Anderson Cooper and Chris Cuomo, along with so many other talk show hosts, interviewed legions of ‘expert’ guests, who all repeated the claim that Trump was a Russian colluder. 

Adam Schiff, on the Sunday morning political talk shows repeatedly said he had evidence, had seen evidence, or knew of forthcoming evidence. Yet, he had nothing. 

Make no mistake: These elected officials and media darlings are demons. And they know better than you. They believe the American electorate cannot be trusted. They’ve decided that they alone must control who governs. 

The 24-Hour News Cycle

Today, it’s easy to overlook how vigorously the Left maintained this hoax. In the era of the 24-hour news cycle, we all glom on to what's next and what's next after that. Even Covid, vaccines, and mandated masks now seem like distant events. 

Long after Robert Mueller appeared before Congress on TV and thoroughly embarrassed himself, without offering a shred of evidence, the Democrats continued on. Hillary didn't apologize. Obama never spoke up. Biden kept enriching himself by selling out America. Brennan and Clapper haven't come clean to this day. Adam Schiff is still playing the same tune and wants to run for the senate.

These people do not have an ounce of integrity within them. They could care less that the ruse has been exposed, because the mainstream press, always providing cover for them, won't touch the topic. Rachel Maddow has not recanted. Anderson Cooper is as self-righteous and bamboozled as ever. Surveys show that most rank and file Democrats remain in the dark.

In League with the Devil

How can a democracy continue to thrive when half of its citizens are led by such abject liars? How can a representative republic remain intact when so many of its leaders are thoroughly corrupt and willing to stay corrupt?

A Chinese proverb says you may live in interesting times. They are infuriating times. Talk to liberals and they say, there must have been something between Trump and Russia, otherwise why so much coverage?

Like the Nazi axiom, repeat a lie often enough and people will start to believe it. Top Democrats are all Saul Alinsky advocates now, in league with the devil. None are worth saving. Many of them belong in prison, for seven years, for treason and most of them should be barred from public office.
