US intelligence agencies have decided to become the new pretorian guard and they alone want to control who is president. Sure you can keep voting but THEY will move the election to whom they want in charge. The pretorian guard helped insure that ancient Rome was doomed and the US intelligence goons will repeat history.

The rule of law is dead and the US intelligence agencies are the primary culprits of its death. By carrot and stick they have controlled most US presidents and the elites. If they need to drop charges or ignore crimes they did, think Feinstein and Eric the Farthead. If they need to hit someone think Roger Stone or General Flynn. US intelligence employees are ruthless and amoral and care only about maintaining power, they don’t give a tinkers damn about the USA and protecting US citizens is not even in their purview of giving a crap. They are there to protect themselves.

They couldn’t blackmail Trump and he had to be removed. If re-elected in 2024 watch for them attempt to take Trump out. They did it to JFK and the chief warmonger Bolton stated US intelligence conduct coups to remove leaders they can’t control. They tried several times with Trump and failed. Trump should-should know their game and if re-elected fire massive swathes of US intelligence agencies.

I see Meadows’ mistake. He knew they were snakes but he trusted them anyway.

It’s OK. We just need to vote in more (R)N(C) & they’ll be sure to ‘get to the bottom’ of things w/ a sternly worded letter

FIRE EVERY LAST ONE OF EM >>. I don’t think he can fire them but they should be immediately transferred to the new offices in Nome AK. land Phone and cot. No internet, email etc. Trump needs to build a shadow cabinet now of people he can trust. It’s not time to go it alone. Reagan had his people from California who looked out for him and did what he said. Trump has no one and no one from DC can be trusted. He knows that now. too late for his first term but he can make it as 47.

If Trump (or DeSantis, etc.) takes over the White House in 2025 the first order of business should be doing a complete sweep of the three letter agencies.

Evaluate everyone from the mail room up to senior staff, and only keep the people who are there to serve the American people and not the deep state.

Trump is not good at planning , strategy, and focused follow through. Since his whole campaign in 2016 was about draining the swamp, he needed to have a team of loyal talented MAGA people ready to be nominated to top positions as soon as he was inaugurated. But he didn’t have a team ready to go. He didn’t do the disciplined planning necessary. He was even interviewing Romney for Secretary of State in the weeks leading to inauguration. He ended up filling his administration with disloyal swamp dwellers

The same lack of focus, strategy and discipline can be seen in his re-election campaign. There was no organized effort to counter the democrats drive to make in voting laws and policies.

This is why I’m for Desantis. He’s smarter, disciplined, articulate, and good at hiring loyal people who share his agenda.

“f Trump (or DeSantis, etc.) takes over the White House in 2025 the first order of business should be doing a complete sweep of the three letter agencies.”

Trump didn’t do it before. Why reward him for that failure by nominating him again? Desantis is the more logical choice.

“ no one from DC can be trusted. He knows that now”

You and I knew that long ago. Why wasn’t Trump smart enough to know that? How can you trust his judgment going forward when it was so bad in his first term? He hired the swamp and kept swampsters in power. And he gsve extraordinary authority to his son in law. Why do we need all that again when Desantis is available, and he has a proven record of hiring good people who actually share his agenda?

Why did Trump fail to release the Dallas 1963 documents?

Don’t know how old she is but we know she has had some ailments.
Maybe, just maybe we’ll see a great headline in the near future.

Maybe one of her doubles will run in here place. Dems will do anything.

Umm…IIRC, I think you have to be impeached, tried, and convicted before Clause 3 of the 14th Amendment takes effect. It’s the tried and convicted by the Senate part that is doubtful.

Rep. Adam Shifft (sp) (D-CA) has talked about a referral to the Department of Justice for some sort of criminal indictment and prosecution, but nothing of the specifics has come out. Rumor has it that there is no evidence that would support a convection under existing law.

The amendment and clause are supposed to be enforced by Congress, not the courts. So a conviction would still have to be brought before Congress as evidence of disqualifying conduct that would then require congressional action to actually invoke the disqualification clause of the amendment.

It’s murky because the clause has not been used that much since it was adopted after the Civil War.

It would take years for all of that to play out in the courts.

It would be my guess that this whole charade is to make Trump yell ‘UNCLE’ and agree to not ever run again, or face a constant barrage of legal problems that would eventually bankrupt him...............................

“Wray was by far the biggest mistake Trump made. It is hard to overstate the damage that terrible choice caused.”

Exactly. You will also notice that the Biden administration kept him in place and has not said a word about him. That tells me a lot.

Fire them all. Prosecute those who engaged in crimes. Prosecute those who are negligent in their duties. That should choke the courts for 10 years and give some simmer time on just what is needed in government. They have spent the past decade being a political weapon so we won't miss their services.

We are truly in a dystopia that rivals the movie "Brazil" circa 1985-ish.

Nothing works. No process delivers an outcome besides celebrating the process. People run agencies and bureaucracies they have no experience in. Anything that embarrasses the state will not be remedied or explained. The media and journalists are run by the state.

I tried to find my package from India to my address that shows "inbound to Customs" from two months ago. Their own regulations require a letter be sent on anything beyond 45 days. Three times in the past year my parcels never left customs. What do they do with all the stuff shipped. Their systems on the phone mention Covid about 60 times an hour while you are on hold for two hours.
