When we see that justice is measured, not by due process, but by compulsion; when we see that in order to invoke our right to due process, we need to obtain permission from those who rebuke the constitution; when we see that justice is determined by those who leverage, not in law, but in politics; when we see that representatives get power over individual liberty by graft and by scheme, and our representatives don’t protect us against them, but protect them against us; when we see corruption holding influence and individual liberty so easily dispatched and nullified; we may well know that our freedom too is soon to perish….

CTH is often criticized for being too accurate outlining the schemes, and not putting enough emphasis on what actions can be done -by ordinary Americans- to counteract the duplicity and corruption amid DC politicians. Well, last month we outlined exactly what YOU can do when we wrote “STAND“.
It is the responsibility of each of us to stand, defiantly if needed, and support a President who is waging a battle against multiple adversaries on our behalf. “Stand” means be visible. “Stand” means let your voice be heard. “Stand” means telling your republican representatives what your expectations are. They represent us; WE are the people.
Do read the whole article. Sundance tells us why this is so important, in case we didn’t already know...

The 129 Republicans are easy to find and the telephone numbers are at a link in the article.
Absorb the anger as fuel to empower you to contact them and let your voice be heard. It might be difficult to accept that: Doug Collins, Devin Nunes, Liz Cheney, Kevin McCarthy, Mike McCaul, John Ratcliffe, Steve Scalise, and Lee Zeldin all voted to spit in the face of our president…. BUT THEY DID. So what are you going to do about it?
There were decent Republicans who stood with our president. Sixty of them to be exact. Including: Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan, Louie Gohmert, Andy Biggs and fifty-six more who stood shoulder-to-shoulder with patriots and with our President. They too should be contacted with words of appreciation and praise.

So let me get this straight. If a Republican (or 129) doesn’t agree with everything President Trump does, they automatically become backstabbing traitors? Hmmm. That sounds like something an extreme Leftist would say, not a conservative. Last i heard, we believe in freedom, especially when it comes to voting one’s conscience. These 129 Republicans may be wrong (time will tell), but to call their action betrayal says more about the writer than about them.

#1: makes me think of this verse in Ephesians 6: Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand

I have a feeling Liz Cheney is the ringleader. All this for less than a thousand troops withdrawn from Syria??? McCarthy is another Paul Ryan.

My representative is Scott Tipton, 3rd congressional district in Colorado. Shame on you, Scott. I thought you knew better as a pubbie and obviously went along to get along with leadership. Time to primary you out next year.

Cowards..If they so believe in sending our sons/daughters and grandchildren to that hell hole middle East then They don't give a damn about the Kurd. Daddy Bush abandoned them during the 1st Gulf fracas. If they care so much let them take a vote and declare war. Stop the backstabbing. I hope the next time the so called defenders (so called Repub leaders) of the people get on FOX they talk about this. I also want them to explain to us training those basteds and then them turn around shoot the US troops in the back. Sick of Congress... ALL of them. Stay the hell DC and take care what the real problem is..Freaking Dems and their trying to over throw our Pres. Stop with the endless mindless threats that a report is coming blah blah blah...

Voting their conscience... or their bank account? Thing is we will never know but following the money is a best bet when discovering the true motivation behind 95% of politicians.
Also, Democrats never break ranks unless they have permission to do so. I get the whole freedom of conscience thing but that is cold comfort when the enemy is always united and better organized. The GOP looks like a pack of preschoolers on a playground compared to a united Conservative force to be taken seriously.

I used to be in Scalise's (the mistake by the lake) but got gerrymandered into Ralph Abramson's. I haven't found out how he voted. I'd like to see all these hawks issued a rifle and sent to Syria. Let them put their family members in jeopardy!

The useful idiots on both sides of the political aisle are making a big bet with their careers that the pending IG Horowitz report on the conspiracy to illegally reverse the 2016 election will not recommend any indictments. If they are wrong, and the whole Obama administration cabal is brought to justice as it should be, they will be remembered by 2020 voters as enablers of the greatest political crime against our Constitution in the history of our country.
They may be right to take this bet given the media corruption and their ability to use Jedi mind tricks to befuddle weak minds but the political cost of being on the wrong side of history is not really worth the risk of siding against Trump at this point. If the criminals are finally brought to justice the Democrat party will be voted out of power for a generation.

This is the very reason I no longer contribute to the RNC, but directly to candidates I support. I do not want disappointing backstabbers to get one thin dime of my money.

Should have stood taller now that the U.S. and Turkey have agreed to a cease fire agreement.

One poster indicated we should just ignore yet another betrayal by Republican Congressmen because they just disagreed with President Trump on one issue. However, the poll I saw indicated that 57% of Republicans backed the President's stance on withdrawing less than a 1000 US troops from Syria. Thus a large majority of Republican Congressman ignored a large majority of the people that elected them. Even morally compromised Democrats display a greater appreciation of the virtue of loyalty. I want my elected representative to represent me, not the Military Industrial Complex that Ike warned us about.

The 129 Republicans knew that President Trump was sending VP Pence and Pompeo to Turkey to discuss a cease-fire in Syria. Did they think voting against our President as it happened would be in our best interests? Idiots. Playing right into the Democrats' hands.
Another reason why the RNC gets no money from me. Only individual candidates.

Used to be. Used to be. Once upon a time those in 'government' were seemingly above average in thought and actions (ones we saw, at least). Now it seems that any two bit empty headed fool can 'get elected'...think about the completely vapid and very nearly moronic A.O.C., the poster child of what remains of 'elected officials' that do nothing but line their nests for their future and display a kind of HYPOCRISY that was once seldom witnessed.

In order to crush socialism it will first be necessary to sweep socialism's GOP enablers out of the way. The good news is that dozens of RINO nobodies have seen the steamroller headed their way and they are scurrying like cockroaches. The bad news is that until a new party replaces the GOP, Democrats will fill the vacancies.

Anyone still think that there is not a globalist oriented UniParty that is running the show in the Congress? There is an old saying “when the going gets tough, the tough get going” and those 129 so-called Republicans who voted with the leftist and liberal Democrats and against the President showed that they are about as tough as a jelly donut.
A big reason that the Democrats are running their faux impeachment inquisition against the President is that they believe that enough cowardly Republicans in the House of Representatives, and especially in the Senate when the time comes, will drop their drawers and bend over, to give the Democrats majorities in both the House and Senate so the Democrats can tout to their low information constituencies that they got the majority of the votes in Congress to remove the President from office, but they were stopped from fulfilling that dream by a number of “Deplorable” Republican Senators who voted for the President, causing the “unconstitutional” provision in the Constitution to come into play, that requires a two thirds majority in the Senate to remove a President from office, to be the defining factor in their all out war against Trump. A constitutional provision that either should be changed or ignored until it is amended making it easier for the Democrats to remove future Republican Presidents from office in the words of crazy Nancy!
