An admonition to my fellow citizens that the Dept. of Justice was not intended to be an extension of the Executive Branch of our government, according to our Constitution. Trump appointed William Barr Attorney General because of an article written by Barr that was essentially an audition by Barr for the AG job. Confirmation of Barr was unstoppable because of the bootlicking, Trump adulating Republicans in the Senate who have obviously abdicated their oaths to defend our country from attack by enemies, both foreign and domestic.
Past events such as Watergate, Clinton’s Impeachment, and a multitude of other scandals involving our government, tested the rule of law. Historically, breaking the laws of our country normally resulted in being prosecuted for criminal behavior, that is, until Trump. The laws of our country mean nothing to the Trump cabal, evidenced by their blatant disregard of ethics, morals and respect of the law.
If we Americans allow Trump’s violations against our rule of law to continue, I’m afraid, no, I’m actually terrified that Trump’s power grab and his further abuses of power will destroy our Democracy. We must demand and support Congress to use the powers granted unto them, via the Constitution, to Impeach Trump and the equally complicit McConnell for their abuses of power and obstructions of justice.
“Use the force” people of America, the roadmap for ensuring the survival of our Republic is clearly laid out within our Constitution. Time is of the essence, as our Democracy is now teetering, perilously close of becoming a fascist state, complete with a lying, madman as absolute ruler.
Trump, ironically has indeed helped make our country great again by exposing the weaknesses in our Democracy, so that we may now fix those flaws and heal the damage that Trump and the Republican party inflicted upon our country.
