The Swamp Must Be Drained

Original Article

Posted By: earlybird, 5/21/2022 3:50:03 PM

The Democrats are increasingly desperate as the return of Donald Trump becomes more likely each week.They are muddling the sequence of events that got us to the present impasse: Trump ran against the corrupt back-scratching, log-rolling society of the OBushintons—the Clinton pay-to-play schemes, the Biden sales of influence and access, the semi-disguised socialist racism elitism of the Obamas, and the flabby sameness and ineffectuality of the Bush–McCain–Romney–McConnell–Ryan Republicans. Trump sensed the people were dissatisfied with the bipartisan Swamp, and he ran as strenuously against the Bushes and McCain and Romney in 2016 as he did against the Clintons and Obamas.

Comments:

Conrad is not a people-pleaser. He has a few critical words for Trump, but they have nothing to do with Trump’’s ability to drain the Uniparty swamp. So suck it up and read. Many here were and still are as critical of Trump for the little stuff as Conrad is. Do they join him in believing Trump “with the fortitude of a 40-year-old” is the only one who can get our country out of this mess? I certainly do - but then I have been a Trump supporter, warts and all. His bluntness is reflective of his strength. Republicans should never be the doormats that Conrad thinks they are.

While it is putting the cart before the horse (winning the Presidency in 2024), Pres Trump needs to think long and hard about the team he brings back to Washington. We all saw what the deep state did during his term in office. What's that old saying, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. People need to be ready to go at 12 noon on Jan 20, 2025 and walk into offices and take over. Any political appointee, even if they were transitioned to a civil service job (an Emperor Obama trick) needs to be shown the door or sent to a basement office with no duties, no computer/internet, and no cell service. Heck, I'd even push back the inaugural balls a few weeks to focus on this. And the first guy to go would be Faye Wray over at the FBI.

The day after the election, the creatures at the FBI, DOJ, etc., etc. need to arrive at their offices to find the doors locked and the buildings secured, with a note on the doors saying that they're all fired.

Drain the Swamp...and the outflow of filth had better include a large number of GOPe denizens. Let's see who's up for Senate re-election in '24...21 seats currently held by Democrats and 10 held by Republicans, with two "independents". The biggest "RINO" name up in '24 is Mitt, if he runs presumably without FPDT's endorsement. And Ted Cruz, who may be vulnerable and without FPDT's imprimatur. If the Republicans take the House in '22, they'll keep it with GOPe Speaker McCarthy in '24. And there's the ultimate problem...Mitch and McCarthy will likely be around, unless the GOPe tosses their elections like they did in '18 - hard to do in '24 IF successful in '22. And FPDT or any other Swamp Drainer had better come with a competent, loyal cabinet and staff ready to roll from January 20th. It had better have solid proposals to reform damn near everything, with McCarthy and Mitch nodding their assent. And where to start...law enforcement and intel communities? Military? Departments of Education and Energy? CDC and the public health agencies? They're all candidates for #1 on the list. Got to hit the bureaucracy hard and fast. A new Chief Executive has 90 days to make it happen, or inertia and the "dictatorship of the status quo" wins, and the swamp just refills.

Georgia’s Record-Breaking Early Voting
Turnout Defies ‘Voter Suppression’ Accusations

Early voting in Georgia broke records this week despite last year’s adoption of election integrity measures that critics derided as “voter suppression” and President Joe Biden called a “blatant attack” on the Constitution and compared to a Jim Crow-era relic. More than 710,000 people had voted early in Georgia’s primary election as of May 19, according to the secretary of state’s office, which is 149 percent higher than at the same point in 2020, when elections officials encouraged vote-by-mail and early voting to reduce crowding at polling stations amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The trial of former Clinton campaign attorney Michael Sussmann crossed a critical threshold Friday when a key witness uttered the name “Hillary Clinton” in conjunction with a plan to spread the false Alfa Bank Russian collusion claim before the 2016 presidential election. For Democrats and many in the media, Hillary Clinton has long held a Voldemort-like status as “She who must not be named” in scandals. Yet, there was her former campaign manager, Robby Mook, telling a jury that Clinton personally approved a plan to spread the claim of covert communications between the Trump organization and the Russian bank. It was one of the most successful disinformation campaigns in American politics,

People are starting to come to grips with the importance of Hillary campaign manager Robbie Mook’s fingering of Hillary—that she was the one who authorized the Alfa Bank Hoax. There’s a lot to be said, and some people are already saying it. One is Jonathan Turley, and another is Devin Nunes. Nunes gave a very lucid interview to Fox News that happens to work very well with Turley’s equally lucid article at The Hill.If you read Turley first, then listen to Nunes’ explanation of the significance of it all, you’ll get a very good overview of why this revelation will end up being very important—whether or not Sussmann is convicted.

I keep getting asked the same question again and again; is this outbreak of monkey pox a real threat, or is this another case of overstated and weaponized public health messaging?

The criminal trial of Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann began this week with a telling warning from prosecutors to the D.C. jury: “Whatever your political views might be, they cannot be brought to your decisions.” The opening statement by Deborah Brittain Shaw reflected the curious profile of the Sussmann case. Prosecutors ordinarily have a massive advantage with juries despite the presumption of innocence. When pleas are counted, federal prosecutors can report as high as 95 percent conviction rates. However, with Sussmann, prosecutors clearly have concerns over whether they, rather than the defendant, will get a fair trial.

For regular readers of this site, today’s news will likely not come as a surprise, but much of the nation seems to remain unaware of it. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) has released its latest reliability assessment for the summer of 2022 and, to put it mildly, the news is not good. In far too many states, the power grid is already nearly at full capacity, and in the next few months, that capacity will be exceeded. This isn’t a question of “if” or really even “when.” It’s just a fact. Industry experts know this and have been trying to sound the alarm for several years.

These people will get us all killed. Mitt Romney called on our NATO allies to prepare for a nuclear strike from Russia. The US has already invested tens of billions of dollars in military weapons to Ukraine. The New York Post reported: The US and its NATO allies should prepare a “devastating” response to potential Russian nuclear action, Sen. Mitt Romney said on Saturday. The call to action comes on the heels of threats from the Kremlin and warnings from Russian diplomats that the country’s Ukraine invasion could lead to a nuclear strike, the Utah Republican wrote in an op-ed for The New York Times.

It’s not even on my radar,” he said, adding that Harris, who has drawn criticism regarding her performance as vice president, should succeed President Joe Biden, the Chronicle noted.

The Biden administration privately acknowledged late last month that a mathematical error is delaying the federal government’s offshore oil and gas program. In an April 29 letter to industry leaders obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation, the head of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says that a subagency “discovered a miscalculation” that has caused a massive backlog in permitting. Richard Spinrad acknowledged in his letter that the National Marine Fisheries Service—the subagency tasked with analyzing the impact of offshore drilling projects on wildlife—has used faulty computer modeling on such impacts. As a result, Spinrad wrote, the subagency overestimated wildlife effects, delaying permitting on existing leases.

The shipment from the US military's Ramstein Air Base in Germany is the first in Biden's Operation Fly Formula program, aimed at ramping up international imports of baby formula to raise US supply. It's one of several measures the president unveiled to mitigate the increasingly dire baby formula shortage that's plaguing Americans nationwide - which has already led to multiple reports of hospitalized children.
