Weekend Music Thread – I’d Love to Change the World

Mueller, Played by the Rules

Hi, AdLib – Of course, there are always the constitutional duties of Congress to fulfill including impeachment as written in our Constitution. The only ones promulgating the worthiness/unworthiness of impeachment are the media pundits with 24/7 air time to fill with opinions/analysis from everyone and anyone – a rather significant portion do not have a law degree and have not served in Congress yet presume to have so-called solutions.

In reality, there is no debate whether or not to impeach – it is blatantly obvious that crimes have been committed. To use your analogy of the policeman as a witness to a crime, I would take that one step further. The crime must then be prosecuted by legal professionals who are experienced with specific courtroom proceedings as well. It would not be advisable nor responsible to appear in that courtroom unprepared without full evidentiary facts.

There are both intended and unintended consequences for every action regardless, nothing is guaranteed with absolute certainty for future outcomes. There will be criticism by media pundits no matter who does what…..I can already hear them say: “These impeachment hearings are taking too long, why didn’t someone do this or that – democracy is doomed!” 😉 Please see my additional commentary below, especially the last paragraph.

Great new Planet, Ad Lib! 🙂

Hi, escribacat – The future remains unknown, only time will bring the answers to so many questions in this quagmire. – Good to see you. 🙂

Hi, misapope – The navigation through the devolving of the MSM regarding politics into a panel of opinions rather that a discussion of the known facts depends on common sense and a willingness to ignore speculative hyperbole. There are too many times to even count when so-called news statements/questions include the words: might, could, perhaps, what if and the oft repeated what-do-you-think.

Then the opinions become repeated and further discussed as to the how and why one agrees or disagrees – what is conveniently and rarely addressed is that the original topic was only an opinion. Journalist hosts themselves state conclusions that are ultimately only their own opinion. – I take much of the MSM regarding politics with a rather large grain of salt. 😉

I always check the educational background, expertise and experience of whoever is doing the “talking”. Merely as an example: Rep. Adam Schiff(D), age 58, has a BA in Political Science from Stanford University and a law degree from Harvard University. He first worked as a prosecuting attorney in the Los Angeles branch of a federal district court, then later as an Assistant US Attorney. After four years serving in the California State Senate, he has now served in the US House of Representatives for over nineteen years. He has served on the House Intelligence Committee for over four years and became the new Chair of this committee on January 3, 2019.

There is a distinctive hunger for headlines and getting news scoops by the MSM as well as with the current state of communication technology. – The reality is that much has to be validated first. And much of the actual work in Congress is being done on committees behind closed doors which is not going to be instantly available. When seeking truth, no facts are irrelevant. – History is unfolding in front of us, sometimes there is simply not a clear and open pathway to the future. – Nice to meet you. 🙂

We the People have most definitely not lost their values or their ability to comprehend the truth. Whether through the Idiot in the White House, the groveling GOP in Congress or the GOP puppets throughout this nation – there has been an almost daily abuse of power in government with both cruelty and ignorant absurdity. Actually, a significant majority of citizens respond with an increased resistance. And there is a strengthening resolve to work together to end this Machiavellian madness…..much like the resolve of Democratic voters that won the majority of the House of Representatives seven months ago.

As for the impeach now sentiment, much has been fueled by the MSM with criticism against Democratic leaders. This has also merged with discussions regarding Mueller’s impact or lack of impact. There has been an abundance of air time devoted to the squawking of opinions as to what the “spineless” Democrats should do or “democracy will be doomed forever.” – To not impeach now does not mean to never impeach. – And to each and every pundit squawker…..go home and write the Articles of Impeachment yourself, tonight or even right now. Reality might just come crashing down and prove that this is a tad more involved than easy words of rhetoric.

Impeachment is indeed inevitable. And of course, there is more than enough evidence as provided through the diligent and excellent efforts of Mueller to attain both an impeachment and a conviction. – However, there has to be a consideration for not only the exacting details that are required…..but also for the current Senate majority held by the GOP. The question right now is will there be enough evidence to shame enough GOP in the Senate to vote for conviction.

It is significant to remember that the truth may be far different than what is portrayed by the MSM. – As the Articles of Impeachment simply cannot be written overnight, it is quite likely that the House Judiciary Committee is already in progress with writing some of the preliminary components for impeachment and has been for weeks. – Yet remember that only the redacted Mueller report has been provided to the House as well. – And it is quite frustrating when the halls of justice have the doors to full evidence slammed shut over and over again. For the time it takes to appropriately get those doors open, there will still be plenty of pundits 24/7 to squawk about what should or should not be done by whoever in this unprecedented quagmire.

The immensity of the criminal and treasonous actions by the Idiot in the White House cannot be underestimated. – The GOP in the Senate remain smug in their arrogance of a majority in the Senate. Yet with the comprehensive and factual evidence as presented to the entire nation in actual impeachment proceedings, they must each choose whether to convict or to be complicit. – Enough may not remain so smug and arrogant with the ever increasing prospect of getting kicked out of the Senate by We the People in 2020 for his/her failure to fulfill their sworn oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.
