At the Capitol Building in
Washington D.C., various representatives are roaming the halls going to
meetings and working with other representatives on bills. It has been a very eventful time in the
second tallest building in Washington D.C. as Mueller had just given his much
anticipated public testimony in front of congress that, to put it mildly,
didn’t live up to the hype. Ilhan Omar
is in a room when she receives a phone call.
She answers and one of her aids says, “Mrs. Omar, it appears that a
video of you from 2018 is about to be released.”
“Which one?” She calmly asks.
“You claim that everyone should
fear white people and it is the White’s that should be profiled and monitored.”
“Well yes, I agree with
that. It’s time for them to get a taste
of what cops do to us. See how they like
it.”
“I think you should be prepared
for the rebuttals.”
“Oh, I know all the
rebuttals. The racist whites will call
me a racist and they’re tell people to change “White’ with ‘black’ and see what
they think of the comment. That is
literally changing what I said. You can’t
just replace words. It changes the meaning of the sentence. It’s not racist to say that White people
should be racially profiled. It is
racist if any other race is.”
“They may also point out that
53.1% of all homicides are committed by blacks.”
“Well, white people are no
longer a majority in this country.”
“That is true. White people only make up 44% of the
population according to the FBI. Black
people, however, only make up 13% of the population. You have 13% of people representing 53.1% of
the homicides.”
“If someone comes out with that
statistic, we will point it out for the racist comment that it is.”
“So stating statistical facts is
racist but saying that a group of people should be monitored and racially
profiled is not?”
“Correct, when we get racially
profiled it’s racist. If White people
did it would be logical.”
“Behavior gets profiled not
race. If people do suspicious things,
the cops ask them about it. The people
who do those suspicious things tend more to be minorities but if white people
did them, they would be monitored too.”
“I don’t believe that.”
“Alright, so that’s our
strategy. Double down on the point and
then call anyone that disagrees with us ‘racist’”
“It’s gotten me this far.”
The staffer nods and Omar
realizes there’s a vote to be taken to suspend the debt ceiling. She gets up and walks toward the elevator to
get to the room that will house the vote.
While walking to the elevator, journalists follow her asking her if she
wants to set the record straight on the tax and immigration fraud she allegedly
committed by marrying her brother.”
Omar doesn’t say a word and
keeps walking. As she waits for the
elevator, there’s an awkward silence and the journalist keeps asking but Omar
is thinking only that the elevator is taking way too long to come. Finally, it arrives and she gets on as the
elevator doors close with the journalist never getting a response to his
question. Omar didn’t bother to defend
herself on the accusations. The elevator
opens and she arrives at the vote. The
bill passes in the house and now the house has approved the suspension of the
debt ceiling to allow over 300 Billion dollars more in spending when there is
already an out of control national debt.
According to the new economic theory called ‘Modern Monetary Policy’
that Omar and AOC believe in, there is no such thing as too much debt. All debt is good because you have to spend
money to make money. The bill will now
go to the Senate to see if it passes there.
Many conservatives are hoping that the Senate strikes it down but
prevailing opinion is that it won’t.
Elsewhere in the Capitol,
Representative Sean Duffy is interviewing the CEO of Suntrust. Suntrust is seeking congressional approval to
merge with another bank. Recently, the
same CEO had refused to give money to any company that would aid in improving
the border detention center. Duffy asks
him if it would be fair for him to deny the merger despite that Suntrust had
followed all the laws regarding it because a small group of people don’t like
big banks so they protested against the merger because they believe that banks
should be small and local. The CEO
Responds, “I do believe that would be unfair.”
Duffy responds, “I agree that it
would be unfair. But if it’s unfair then
why did you deny services to people who don’t break the law just because some
people differ with them ideologically?”
The CEO dodged the question but
the point had been made. The corporate
censoring of anyone that aligns themselves with Trump is bordering on
fascism.
With the goings on in the Capitol today, the most
prevalent topic is not the budget bill or financial institutions trying to give
conservatives no place to put their capital. It is centered around one person;
Bob Mueller. The Democrats are upset
because it was a total embarrassment as Mueller didn’t agree with them with
almost all their accusations against the president and instead bumbled and
looked confused making his credibility seem lacking at best. There are a group of Democrats in a high
ranking Republican’s office trying to make their case for impeachment despite
the travesty that was the Mueller testimony.
The Republican says, “What do you want to impeach on?”
“Obstruction”
“There was no predicate crime to obstruct. How do you obstruct an investigation into a
crime that never happened?”
“You impede the investigation into the crime so that the
crime doesn’t get recognized or proved.”
“Of all the ridiculous accusations you made, which one
are you talking about now. You think we
all have amnesia and forget how thoroughly debunked every point you have is but
come on let’s hear it. I guess you can
test me.”
“Collusion with Russia to influence our election”
“One of the very few questions Mueller answered was
saying no to that question. But, I’ll
amuse you for a minute. The
investigation into collusion was a counter-intelligence investigation right?”
“Yes”
“There is no precedent to charging obstruction in a
counter-intelligence investigation.”
“That’s why Mueller turned it into a criminal
investigation.”
“Against Michael Cohen for
expired taxi medallions or something that had nothing to do with Russia, Trump
or collusion of any kind.”
“Cohen was Trump’s lawyer, he
was politically biased.”
“He turned against Trump and
fully cooperated with Mueller. If you
want to talk about political bias, how about that every single appointee my
Mueller on the special counsel was a Democrat?
Many of which were not only Clinton supporters but were on her legal
team and donated heavily to the Clinton foundation. Despite all these Clinton-allies, they still
found nothing.”
“Trump got upset that we
investigated him for two years. Getting
angry at us makes it hard to do our investigation.”
“Aside from how silly that
statement is in and of itself, it’s difficult for an innocent person to not be
resistant to an investigation into his culpability. Generally people are upset when they are
falsely accused.”
“Mueller has cited various
sources. They can’t all be wrong.”
“Most of the allegations are
based on uncorroborated witness statements and news articles. That’s hardly impeccable sources. That’s just reading the papers.”
“Trump and Comey’s stories don’t
match up therefore Trump must be lying.”
“Why do you automatically assume
Comey is telling the truth? Comey is the
only documented liar of the two. He told
the President that he wasn’t under investigation when he was. He signed off on a dossier after he called it
salacious and unverified. He even
stamped that it was verified knowing full well that nobody vetted it and it
hadn’t gone through the five eyes verification process. There is only one admitted liar in this case
and it is not the President, it is Comey.”
“Trump lies all the time”
“Like what?”
“Oh my God, there’s so many.”
“Name one”
“He said that more people
attended his inauguration than any inauguration before. That’s not true, Obama had more.”
“You think that really hurt
America?”
“You said to name one; I did”
“Fine, I’ll give you that but I
don’t put as much Importance on exaggerating your inauguration attendance vs.
lying to a FISC that you verified something that you hadn’t. That something is now going to be used to
invasively spy on someone in the most aggressive way under our laws. The fact that you equate the two is a little
disturbing to me.”
“You’re going to believe Trump
over the intelligence community?”
“I don’t have to. None of the allegations actually impeded or
obstructed the special counsel’s investigation.
This was confirmed by statements by Mueller, McCabe and Comey when they
all answered ‘no’ to the question if the president’s actions impeded their
investigation. Given that, I believe
everyone involved that the President didn’t obstruct.”
The Democrat scoffed and stomped
out of the office like a petulant child.
He decided he would try his luck with a female Republican as they are
more amicable. The Democrat gave a
similar speech and the female Republican responded, “Well, can you clear some
things up that Mueller refused to in his testimony? I mean you read the report, so you’re an
expert right?”
There was a hint of sarcasm in
her voice that the Democrat didn’t pick up on.
He said, “Yea, go ahead.”
“Why was Mifsud not charged with
lying to the congress when everyone such as Flynn and Papadopoulos were?”
“Mifsud is not an American. It
is difficult to charge foreigners.”
“Mueller indicted several
Russians and they’re not even allies.
Malta is an ally and given how often Mifsud is in England, the British
could have turned him over.”
“Look, I’m not sure. Let’s just stick to the issue.”
“Oh we are. Why couldn’t we ask any questions about the
dossier? That was the inception of the
entire investigation.”
“I can’t speak to Mueller’s
psyche.”
“Why wouldn’t he answer if
‘exonerated’ is a DOJ standard?”
“Because it’s not!” he snapped
The Republican smiled and said
charmingly, “Thank you for clearing that up.
How can Mueller claim that he did a good job making sure nothing in his
report leaks when we had a binder of at least 25 things that did leak?”
“There wasn’t time to read all
25 things and comment on them.”
“He should be able to give a
general answer rather than deny their existence.”
“Well, you can take that up with
him”
“We tried for six hours. Talking to him is pointless. You’re defending him, I’m asking you. Why didn’t he answer any questions about Veselnitskaya?”
“Can we just talk about
impeachment?”
“Before we do that, we need to
talk about the evidence. Right now the
accusations are vague and unsubstantiated.
The substance, we were hoping for, was to come from Mueller but it
didn’t so now I’m asking you to provide the substance.”
“Veselnitskaya is Russian and
she met with Trump Jr. That’s all we
need to know”
“She also was a translator for
the Clintons and she worked for Fusion GPS who wrote the dossier.”
“Mueller didn’t confirm that.”
“Which makes me question what
exactly did Mueller do for two years.”
“I’m not going to get anywhere
with you. I would think that as a woman
you’d support me because the President is a misogynist.”
“Luckily for me, he sucks at
being one because female unemployment is at a 50 year low.”
The Democrat shook his head and
groaned in frustration as he left the room and then the Capitol to go
home. He had had a very bad day and felt
humiliated. When he gets home, he calls
his friend Bernie Sanders. Sanders picks
up, “Yes?”
“Hey Bernie, it’s me. I was just wondering if you had some time to
talk. I tried all day to get through to
the Republicans about impeachment and I haven’t made any headway. Do you have any advice?”
“I’m sorry but this is a bad
time for me. I have just been hit with a
federal complaint in Indiana.”
“Why? What happened?”
“I had to cut hours because I didn’t
want to pay the lower income workers.
They wanted $15/hr but they didn’t work enough hours to get to that
minimum.”
“Don’t you set their hours? Were they working the necessary amount of
hours before?”
“They were but not anymore
because I cut them. Once I cut them,
they are no longer entitled to the money.”
“What are they claiming”
“Well, I had to show them who is
in control. It is the ‘Bernie Sanders’
campaign. Nobody else’s name is at
stake. They are calling my forceful
position with them as being an illegal employee interrogation against my
staffers. They don’t realize that I’m
doing this for their own good.”
“They just want to be paid what
you have been advocating for nationally”
“I know what they’re
saying. They are children. Children need to obey their parents. I am like their parents now. I will force them to do things against their
will because I know what’s best for them better than they do. We will aggressively attack anyone that
complains against us and they will be thoroughly interrogated until they see it
our way.”
“Isn’t that unethical or
torturous?”
“Not when you’re on the right
side. There is no tolerance for the
intolerant. The ends justifies the
means. You can’t make an omelet without
breaking eggs. There’s a reason why we
have many expressions saying the same thing.”
“Yes, the Democratic socialist
agenda has caught on a lot. I see
Elizabeth Warren is following your lead.”
“She is not. She lies to the
people. She says she won’t raise taxes
on the middle class. We are going to do
that. The middle class will love to pay
more because they get free healthcare by charging them at least 33% more in
taxes on top of what they already are paying.
They will love paying them. If
they don’t, then we will force them like I talked about earlier. This is how socialism is done. We are following the model except this time
we won’t officially own the means of production. That way we have no accountability if the CEO
isn’t business savvy enough to succeed with all the regulations that we need to
put on them for their benefits. That way
when the company fails, we have no accountability.”
“Do you think the public will
buy it?”
“Of course they will. They did for the housing crisis. The government set up Fannie Mae and Freddy
Mac to subsidize banks and force private banks to give housing loans to people
they knew couldn’t pay them back. When
the bubble burst, we weren’t blamed; financial institutions like Bear Stearns
and Lehman Brothers were.”
“I see what you mean. You’re right, this has worked before.”
“Stick with me kid, you’ll learn
a lot.”
“I will. Thank you sir.”
The Democrat hung up the phone
and exhaled deeply. He muttered to
himself, “I know history. If I’m not with Bernie on this, I may end up executed
if he takes over.”
The democrat couldn’t understand why conservatives considered
Bernie Sanders a fraud. Sanders was very
honest about bankrupting the country, harshly interrogating his opponents and making
business impossible for the private sector so that he could make millions off
of other people’s labors. His being a
millionaire didn’t change this. All the
great communist leaders such as Stalin, Chavez, Maduro and Mao were
multi-millionaires if not billionaires.
The socialist leader is always very wealthy at the expense of death,
destruction and destitution by the citizens of the country. Bernie Sanders just wanted to be the next
millionaire socialist leader. Everything
he said and did was very consistent with that including his current campaign to
interrogate and intimidate anyone on his campaign that was complaining that
they didn’t get 15 dollars an hour.
It was an eventful day on
Capitol Hill. They are set to recess
soon. We shall see what happens before
they do.
