Hypocrite Adam Schiff Rages at Steve Bannon

schiff-flips-out-at-bannon

Executive Privilege – a claim by the President or another high official of the executive branch that he/she need not answer a request (including a subpena issued by a court or Congress) for confidential government or personal communications, on the ground that such revelations would hamper effective governmental operations and decision-making. The rationale is that such a demand would violate the principle of separation of powers among the executive, legislative and judicial branches. – legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com

FoxNews.com reports that

House Democrats said Thursday they are looking at initiating contempt proceedings against former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon, complaining that he cited “executive privilege” to brush off a host of questions during a tense closed-door interview with the House Intelligence Committee.

Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., told reporters that Bannon stonewalled “almost all of the questions,” with the exception of a series of 25 scripted questions from the White House — all of which he answered “no.” Schiff added that Bannon said he had been instructed to invoke executive privilege by the White House.

“That claim of executive privilege is breathtaking and insupportable and, indeed at times, it was laughable,” Schiff said.

Schiff said that Democrats will push for initiating contempt charges against Bannon, a move that would require support from Republicans on the committee. Schiff said Republicans appeared supportive and will confer with their leadership on the next step.

“He’s brought our committee together,” he said.

Executive Privilege…Executive Privilege…where have I heard those words before?

Oh, yeah. Now, I remember.

From ABC News, June 20, 2012

President Obama today invoked executive privilege to shield documents related to the “Fast and Furious” gun walking scandal from a congressional investigation, marking the first time his administration has invoked the right and the 25th time it’s been used since 1980. In response, a House committee voted Wednesday along party lines to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. The White House dismissed the proceedings as “political theater.”

Louis Fisher, author of “Politics of Executive Privilege,” questioned the legitimacy of the administration’s claim to executive privilege.

“If it had been legitimate, I think they could have raised it a year ago,” Fisher said. “It doesn’t look good to work with a committee for more than a year and then to pop out that this is executive privilege.”

The use of executive privilege to protect internal discussions and deliberations can be traced back to George Washington. However, it was the Supreme Court’s 1974 ruling in the Nixon Watergate scandal that established executive privilege as a legal right and set forth its appropriate uses. Since Nixon, executive privilege has been used in every administration, although some presidents invoked the power more frequently than others.

I swear, the Modern Democratic Party are nothing but a bunch of whining hypocrites.

The Congressman is having a “Schiff-Fit” because former Trump Administration Member Steve Bannon has claimed Executive Privilege in response to questions designed to ruin both him and President Trump…questions based on a Political Dog and Pony Show designed to try to remove our Constitutionally-elected President from office because he is not a Professional Politician and he is trying to actually fulfill his Campaign Promises.

Obama covering his as…err…backside from his part in the Fast and Furious scandal by provoking “Executive Privilege” to keep from being impeached did not bother the Democrats in Congress in 2012, I’m sure.

And, gosh. Do you know who one of those members of Congress on the Democratic Side who supported President Obama in 2012 during the Fast and Furious Investigation and his declaring “Executive Privilege” was?

I’ll give you 3 guesses. And, the first two don’t count.

Aww…you guessed.

From Yahoo News, June 27, 2012

Schiff, a leading advocate against holding Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress on Thursday, replied “absolutely” when The Daily Caller asked him at a Wednesday press conference if “government misconduct” took place at anytime during the scandal.

…So, yes, we all acknowledge there are legitimate origins to this investigation but I think it has been untethered from that legitimate origin.”

“Untethered” meaning that Obama cut the rope which was going to tie him into the “misconduct” by claiming “Executive Privilege”.

Let’s face it, gentle reader. This whole Trump/Russia Collusion Fairy Tale has been nothing but an act of vengeance perpetrated by the Democratic Party, their minions in Congress, and their Deep State Operatives in the DOJ and FBI placed in motion to undo the results of the 2016 Presidential Election.

Because, Lord knows, the Far left Democratic Party can’t have a Republican President actually succeed in fulfilling his Campaign Promises.

That would mean that the Professional Politicians on Capitol Hill would actually have to work with President Trump on behalf of Americans, instead of themselves, to help make American Great Again.

And. Lord knows…we can’t have that. That would be too much like “right” (as we say in Dixie).

What a bunch of self-righteous hypocrites.

Only 6% of Americans Care About “Russia, Russia, Russia”! What That Means. (A KJ Sunday Morning Analysis)

Wt-Down-600-LA

Recently, Bloomberg News published a poll in which they asked Americans what they were concerned about.

Per Hannity.com,

The survey, conducted last week and released on Tuesday, shows that just 6% of American voters think allegations of Russian collusion in the 2016 general election is a major issue facing the nation.

Individuals were asked “Which of the following do you see as the most important issue facing the nation right now?” Healthcare reform was at the top of the list with 35% of Americans seeing at is the largest problem in the US, followed by unemployment at 13%; terrorism at 11%; and immigration at 10%.

Near the bottom was the “Relationship with Russia” with just 6%.

6% !!!

Let that sink in, boys and girls.

Only 6% of those surveyed cared at all about a story which has dominated every single news outlet for what seems like an eternity.

What does this mean?

It means that average Americans have more important issues in their lives that they have to deal with on a daily basis.

Little things like their families, their jobs and their health and well-being.

It also means something else.

Americans do not give a hoot ‘n holler what the Democrat Elite, their Propaganda Arm, the Main Stream Media, and all of the Liberal Internet Trolls, paid and unpaid, are screaming at the top of their lungs about, concerning the Trump/Russia Collision Fairy Tale.

On that glorious day of November 8th, 2016, when average Americans stood up on our hind legs, when to the voting booths and began the process of taking our country back by electing Donald J. Trump our 45th POTUS, a very clear message was sent load and clear:

“We’re mad as Hell and we’re not going to take it any more.” We do not care what you think or say. We’re taking our country back.

However, the Democratic Elite, the Propaganda Arm, the Main Stream Media, and Liberal Internet Trolls, paid and unpaid, stuck their fingers in their ears, jumping up and down as they held their breath until they turned blue, ignoring the mandate given by American Voters, in favor of one of their own: to obstruct the process of taking America back by slandering the President at every opportunity by concocting Fake News Stories, such as the Trump/Russian Collusion Fairy Tale, presenting them, and having their Fellow Travelers swear to their veracity.

The result has been an obstruction of a President’s Agenda and a rebellion against the Constitutional Process by which we choose our American President, in favor of lies, innuendo, and mob rule, which as the survey by Bloomberg has shown, is only supported by 6% of the people in this country.

Remember the old saying,

One monkey don’t stop no show ?

Well, 6 Americans out of 100 “concerned” about a sitting President’s possible collusion with Russia is not the consensus that the Democrat Elite, the MSM, and those trolling live from Mom’s Basement on Social Media are attempting to convince us that their “concern” is.

As I have written before, during Obama’s two terms as President, America suffered under a “Tyranny of the Minority”.

Obama owed his political success to the benevolence and largess of America and her people.

In his tenure as President, he proved that he was president of some of the people, not all of the people.

And, those of us, whom his failed political ideology did not appeal to, had enough of his failed leadership and decided not to go “quietly into that good night” by voting for Donald J. Trump,  instead of Obama’s chosen successor, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

So now, it is apparent that the Democrat Elite, the MSM, and Liberal Internet Trolls are a part of a movement whose purpose is to make average Americans submit to their political ideology of “forced Socialism through Fascism” by sabotaging the Presidency of Donald J. Trump and driving Donald J. Trump from office “by any means necessary”.

Well, they can wish in one hand and spit in the other and all that they are going to get is a wet palm.

President Trump is not going any where and neither are those of us living between the East and Left Coasts, here in America’s heartland, who elected him.

The Democrats are still assuming after reading their own press clippings, that all Americans want the Progressive/Marxist Political Ideology and style of governance which Barack Hussein Obama practiced during his time as President.

Well, we all know what assuming does, don’t we, boys and girls?

The American People overthrew the “Tyranny of the Minority”, which we had suffered under for the last 8 years on November 8th.

The Oxford Dictionaries define the word “mandate” as

the authority to carry out a policy or course of action, regarded as given by the electorate to a candidate or party that is victorious in an election.

Guess what, Democratic Elite, Main Stream Media, Facebook and Internet Trolls, Hollywood Celebrities, and the rest of you still attempting to push the Trump/Russia Collusion Fairy Tale while throwing a  Nonstop National Temper Tantrum?

Trump won! Therefore, he does have a mandate.

So, please shut up and go away, unless you wish to help us and the 45th President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.

Until He Comes,
