New Year Questions

I start the second half of this term of the Trump administration with questions from the beginning of the first half. Questions which have persisted and do not seem to be any closer to having answers.

My first question is why are there no charges, findings, or report from the special prosecutor regarding President Trump's alleged collusion with Russians to influence the 2016 presidential election? There has no evidence been presented, leaked, or hinted at about a topic which isn't even a codified crime. Several associates of President Trump have been charged with “process crimes” or unrelated crimes from years gone by, but nothing even hinting at collusion. Maybe Mr. Mueller is keeping his powder dry, but all evidence (which is abundantly available) only points to my second question.

My second question is why no charges have been brought in the attempt to influence a domestic election by the then sitting heads of the Central Intelligence Agency and Department of Homeland Security? These two individuals colluded with British and Russian intelligence agents to create a false dossier to denigrate a presidential candidate and then leaked said dossier to the press and passed it to the Federal Bureau of Investigation to fraudulently obtain FISA wiretaps on individuals associated with the presidential candidate's campaign. Which leads to a third question.

My third question is why are there no charges pending against the individuals in the Federal Bureau of Investigation who used a dossier they knew was factually challenged as a basis to obtain the FISA wiretap warrant on members of a Presidential candidate's campaign staff? This is an abuse of power and the continuance of the domestic intelligence operation to influence the 2016 presidential election by a sitting administration which is a crime. It is called treason.

I do not care which party carried it out. It is just plain wrong. A subversion of the Constitution and constitutional processes is treason. Which leads to another question. Why is this particular party seemingly pushing and celebrating lawlessness?

They are pushing the breaking of immigration law. They are encouraging people to form caravans of thousands of people to travel thousands of miles through other countries, breaking those countries laws in the process, to try to illegally enter our country and circumvent the established legal process for entry into our sovereign nation. Others from around the world, without a contiguous border with the United States follow the legal process, what is special about people from Latin/Central America?

Children are forced on this long and difficult journey and then these same people encouraging this lawless and dangerous behavior are surprised and try to blame the existing administration when these children take ill, and some die, despite being provided medical care. They need to look in the mirror and examine themselves on whom should take on some of the responsibility for the consequence of this irresponsible behavior.

Another example is when members, not just one, is found to be guilty of not paying millions in taxes; they are not sent to jail and have as yet not paid those back taxes. These people are still venerated and put forward as people worthy of our respect. They even maintain their positions of leadership.

They nominate someone who shows a disdain for handling classified national security information and who seems to believe they are above the laws which all the remaining citizens must follow. Who has no issue with spreading a false narrative about the deaths of four Americans, one an ambassador. Who disregards the request from that very same ambassador for increased security measures for which monies had already been appropriated.

They denigrate those who try to uphold and enforce the laws which Congress has passed and the President, of both parties, has signed into law. They celebrate and overlook those who would destroy public and private property in what is suppose to be a peaceful protest. They celebrate and elevate those who call for the assassination of a sitting president or call for the public harassment of members of their cabinet.

This is the present day Democrat Party and I am not a Republican. But I can never support a party which revels in lawlessness.
