Dem Senator FREAKS OUT When Reminded Of Checks And Balances

Quite the pivot they've made from 'No Kings' To Stalinist Show trials, eh?

Midterms gave Dems back the power they so desperately craved, and precisely ZERO lessons have been learned since their overreaching abuses in the Biden years.

They haven’t even retaken the gavel yet and they’re already writing out the naughty list of all the people they plan to shake down.

All in the name of ‘Democracy’ of course.

Forget the fact that criminal investigation and charging takes place in the Executive branch. Partly because of lessons learned from the British Crown’s use of its Star Chamber, the Framers took care to place law making, investigations, and the process of prosecution and determination of guilt in the hands of different people.

Congress, for its part MAKES laws. But it doesn’t conduct trials or run investigations for any reason not directly related to the creation or alteration of laws. Democrats have a long history of ignoring such limitations on their powers. (Remember when Obama’s John Brennan hacked Senate computers? Or when he leveraged the IRS to hamstring his political opponents? That was long before Crossfire Hurricane, and all of the Boschian abuses of power that followed in the Biden years.

After years of calling the Trump administration ‘Nazis’, ‘Fascists’, and exerting monarchial powers (without direct evidence of him doing anything beyond using the courts to assert Executive rights, while abiding by decisions he liked as well as those he hated), Democrats have already begun to unleash their inner Berian Soviets. “Show me the man.’

Little Dick Blumenthal is among the most frothy of the rabid back straining at the leash to attack Trump world. He has made that very clear.

But unlike when Dems played this game in his first term, Trump is hampered by an FBI that is actively working to undermine him, nor is he hampered by Pelosi and Mueller practically begging Trump for any opportunity to invent obstruction of justice allegations against him. Trump never took that bait.

The President has learned a thing or two since the last time the mob came for him. He’s got a stronger team around him, and he knew long before he ran for re-election that the day could come where he’d be facing this again. So you can be sure he drew up his contingency plans.

It’s not as if the left plays fair. We’ve now seen the tapes that Dems worked so hard to keep secret… way back in 2017, Joe Biden admitted to having classified documents in his basement. He was not yet president. It was a crime to own them. He didn’t care, and nobody was held to account for it.

Since we KNOW none of these ‘investigations’ are being done in good faith or for any purpose beyond punishing and frightening would-be Conservatives, we should not be surprised that Trump has drawn his own line in the sand, and the DOJ has written to explain exactly where that line has been drawn:

That letter is specifically invoking 18 U.S. Code § 241 – Conspiracy against rights. We need look no further than Democrats’ own rhetoric to know that was the game plan from the beginning.

Remember that video last month where Slotkins told us in plain English, “I want young people coming out of school to say, ‘Should I go work for the Trump administration? Like, that sounds fun, I might get an opportunity.’ I want them to be like, ‘Lord, that might be buying myself a ton of problems that I don’t want, and so let me avoid participating in that.’ I want that deterrence message sent.”

Nothing about that mentality falls within the scope of legitimate oversight.

Of course, Blumenthal is doing the exact blame-shifting act of projection EVERY Democrat in living memory has fallen back to when the get caught for something. They plead innocence and accuse the other guy.

Sure, Dick.

But none of that posturing changes the implications of 18 U.S. Code § 241 – Conspiracy against rights, does it? It’s your move.

I’d say ‘choose wisely’ if I actually believed you had it in you to do so.

I suppose the next best thing might be ‘see you in court’.
