The Dumbest Motherfuckers in Washington, D.C.

     Donald Trump had a phone conversation on July 25, 2019, with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky.  Zelensky flatters Trump quite a bit.  Zelensky wants more "Javelins," a "man-portable" anti-tank missile resembling a barbell, manufactured by Raytheon and Lockheed Martin, costing $174,000 apiece.  It fires an eighteen and a half pound warhead to a distance of nearly three miles, using an infrared homing guidance system.  If this information gives you a hard-on or makes you wet, a job in cable news punditry might be the best career goal for you.
     Trump, before this phone call, ordered a hold on weapons deliveries to Ukraine, a nation wrapped up since 2014 in war with Russia.  Scolded on MSNBC by Joe Scarborough and other concerned pundits and opinion makers, Trump is supposedly playing his usual games, probably due to his "bromance" with Vladimir Putin, with Ukraine's ability to fight a predatory nation invading its sovereign territory.
     He's holding back weapons from a democracy fighting the evil Russia which interfered in our 2016 election!!!
     The proliferation of Neo-Nazi groups in Ukraine since the U.S.-backed overthrow of that nation's government five years ago is not mentioned by Scarborough and his friends, including, this morning,
human reptile Bill Kristol.  After two years and eight months of impeachment talk by Trump's ineffectual political enemies, the July 25 phone call, transcript released yesterday, serves House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi with the smoking cap gun she's been waiting for.
     The Washington Post yesterday published a story titled, "Pelosi, top Democrats favor quick, narrow Trump impeachment probe focused on Ukraine"
     While some may cry, "Yes!  Finally!" my response is "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!" a scream of anguish as I react to the utter stupidity of this harebrained move.  Its only logical purpose would be to distract American voters further from what their concerns really are: Medicare for All, clean water, environmental protections, a nationwide jobs program, ending foreign wars, abolishing student and medical debt, addressing climate catastrophe with real solutions acted upon within the next ten years, an end to spying on innocent people, the shining of light on the depredations of the intelligence community as they lie and lie and lie in the service of destructive and hidden agendas, to name just a few needs actual Americans have, rather than a useful interest in political theater played out by cretins who aren't doing shit for their constituents.
     Bill Clinton's impeachment proceedings in 1998 and 1999 led to his highest approval rating: 73%.
I just looked up this tidbit, it took me ten seconds--Nancy Pelosi and her colleagues could do the same and do the math.  It's likely that impeaching Trump will boost his popularity, and not just with his base.  Giving a showman like Trump a chance to play the victim is a huge mistake, like how the Russiagate fiasco, a two and a half year imbroglio based on lies concocted by intelligence professionals like John Brennan, also boosted the president's ratings.
     The idiocy displayed by these out of touch, selfish and greedy, inward-looking morons, the Democratic leadership, reaches an apex I failed to imagine until yesterday when I read the Post article written by Mike DeBonis and Rachel Bade, both of whom, using the typical neutral tone of journalese, neglect to mention that the Democratic politician subjects of their piece are essentially brain-dead circus freaks.
     Trump allegedly "pressed" Zelensky to work with Attorney General William Barr and Trump's attorney Rudy Giuliani "to investigate Joe Biden."
     This, in relation to Biden's son Hunter, who from 2014 to April 2019 received $50,000 per month (a total of about three million dollars in salary despite having no experience in the energy field) serving on the board of Ukrainian oil and natural gas company Burisma Holdings.  Vice President Biden and some Western European leaders got on the Ukrainian government's case to fire Viktor Shokin, that nation's chief prosecutor.  Shokin claims he was fired because of his investigation of Burisma Holdings.  Did Vice President Biden help gang up on Shokin because of his son Hunter's involvement with Ukraine's largest energy company?  Apparently, that's Trump's view, or theory.  Members of Obama's administration reportedly worried about Hunter Biden's employment by Burisma, fearing conflict of interest.
     Last July, Trump froze $391 million in military aid to Ukraine.  There followed the Zelensky phone call and an alleged quid pro quo ("You investigate the Bidens, I'll unfreeze your people-killers").
     A curious Hunter Biden connection: he was a member of the Chairman's Advisory Council for the National Democratic Institute, or NDI.  The Chairman of this Neoliberal outfit is Madeleine Albright, the former Secretary of State who said the mass murder of half a million Iraqi children by the Clinton administration (which she was a part of) "was worth it," it being the weakening of Saddam Hussein's authority through punishing sanctions.  Funded by such democracy-destroying entities as the National Endowment for Democracy, the Agency for International Development, and the State Department, NDI is just one more example of how Satan probably appears to be a handsome man.
     Pelosi called a meeting after the Zelensky-Trump phone call transcript was released, not redacted, by the White House.  Some Democrats attending the meeting spoke anonymously afterward, getting the word out about their new batshit crazy tactic on how Trump is finally going to be put in his place.      For committing mass murder on a daily basis in our numerous war theaters, seventy Afghan pine nut farmers drone-bombed just recently?  No.  For locking up Latin American children and denying them proper health care and hygiene maintenance?  Absolutely not.  For gutting environmental regulations, including clean water standards which will damage and kill Americans over time?
     No, it's that phone call!  Trump seemed to be getting Zelensky to do him a favor by digging up info on the Burisma thing with Hunter Biden and his dad for the sake of gaining leverage against a possible opponent in the 2020 presidential election.
     Quoting the Post article: "Democrats said the evidence was incriminating enough--and easy enough for voters to understand--to proceed with their impeachment inquiry, and soon.  'Strike while the iron's hot,' said one individual [a blacksmith in his spare time? sarcastic comment mine], summarizing the sentiment.  Democrats said they could move quickly on impeachment and act by the end of the year."
     Pelosi, according to these gossips, wants to move quickly, keep it out of the courts.  Other Trump-related investigations currently occupy those courts, moving with the sludgy slowness typical of inquiries into the criminal behavior patterns of the psychopaths running the world.
     The politicians in Pelosi's meeting decided that "narrowing the investigation...in terms of political messaging, made sense."
     Hey America!  Get excited about political messaging!
     House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (who, like Pelosi, is against Medicare for All, thus, the enemy of 99 percent of Americans) spoke to reporters, "held up the rough transcript of the Trump-Zelensky phone call and said that the House would focus on its contents in the coming days and weeks."
     Good thing they're not wasting taxpayers' money!
     He also said that "urging a foreign leader to intervene to influence an upcoming election...was simple for the public to understand."
     A simple subject for a simple people, who I guess don't care about their leaders screwing around with something that sounds like Russiagate 2.0.  There's enough in this to put many more millions of dollars in Rachel Maddow's bank account.  Once again, Trump, an obviously crooked man, will battle opponents in cable news and in the intelligence community (a "whistleblower" from that community of proven deceivers with their own agendas broke this story).  This story will, like the impeachment process, go on for a long time.  Even if it just lasts for a few months that's too long.  We don't need politicians of either party wasting their time on something not likely to pass in the Republican-controlled Senate.  We don't need President Pence!
     This is a gift to the intelligence community, the same crafty media-savvy dealers in mendacity trying to run the entire show.  It's a gift to mainstream news media and independent media not seeing it for what it is.  Russiagate was attempt number one to unseat Trump.  Ukrainegate is number two, done on behalf, it appears, of Joe Biden.  If Biden becomes president, the intelligence and militaristic forces running things will have a mentally foggy puppet to serve as the appearance of a world leader, brought out now and then to make announcements or pardon turkeys for Thanksgiving.
     Nancy Pelosi, when she made her announcement to the nation about the commencement of the impeachment process, looked like she's filled with embalming fluid.  Biden is losing his mind.  Mitch McConnell, old and evil as ever, is nevertheless sharp.  He won't allow anyone in his caucus to vote for impeachment without making them suffer grave political consequences.  The Democratic establishment, as in 2016, seeks actively, daily, to erase Bernie Sanders from American awareness, a hard thing to do, but CNN and MSNBC are clearly attempting this, manipulating poll numbers to make it seem the Vermont senator doesn't have the popularity of Biden or Elizabeth Warren.
     Congressman Adam Schiff, one of Russiagate's main propagandists--thus, a man who's boosted his career and public profile from that lie--says at the article's conclusion, "'This is how a mafia boss talks...the president didn't need to say, "That's a nice country you have.  It would be a shame if something happened to it."  'Because this was clear from the conversation.  There is no quid pro quo necessary to betray your country or your oath of office.'"
     It's not clear from the conversation, Schiff.  He calls Trump a traitor.  If he really is that, Schiff should be looking for a safe place to hide, but he isn't, since he knows he can speak that way, just as he did for the two years he helped inflict Russiagate on his fellow citizens.  Russiagate, and Schiff, along with Maddow and so many contemptible others in politics and the news media, wasted not only millions of dollars in taxpayers' money, but more importantly, they wasted our time.  The Democrats are about to do it again, likely producing another zero, benefitting conspiracy theorizers like Rachel Maddow and Adam Schiff, while feeding the president's bruised ego, fueling his 2020 campaign with numerous subjects to blast out of his mouth as he finds sympathy with his base, and with those fed up with the Democratic Party as represented by a Pelosi-guided leadership with the worst political instincts I've ever witnessed.
     Trump's enemies on the so-called Left have no problem with his sanctions against Venezuela and Iran, policies killing thousands of innocent people denied medicine.  As Scarborough complained, it's outrageous that Ukraine had a hold put on their weapons deliveries.  The MSNBC morning host and former Trump friend doesn't seem to care, or know, that Neo-Nazis will receive some of those weapons, as they comprise a significant part of the Ukrainian Army.  Thus, does Lockheed Martin fund the philosophical descendants of Hitler.
     The only Democratic politician running for president who has so far suggested the Zelensky-Trump phone call isn't worth an impeachment process, due partly to the divisiveness it will bring to the nation, is Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard.
     Tulsi 2020.
