What is funny, is watch the upcoming tweet or comment from Trump turning on Tucker Carlson like a junk yard dog.

His m.o. is so predictable.

What happened to Romans 12?

Romans 12 is about vengeance.  The justice Department is to carry out Constitutional Law and make sure justice is served.  But the President thinks he needs to do it all.  But he is giving them fuel for their fire.  Done correctly there is no controversy.  No reason to call for impeachment.  Just a Justice Department carrying out their duties.

Trump should be resting right now knowing that the Mueller investigation left him innocent.  That is not to say that investigations into corruption concerning the Mueller Investigation shouldn't take place.  They should, but by the Justice Department.

I can't help that he is making it sound like political motivation and personal vengeance. 
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

If Trump waits for the departments who, either actively or passively, have been trying to get him out of office for the past three years to see justice done he will probably be waiting long past the point he leaves office.

As for the AG Barr he's very busy right now.

And what about all of that about draining the swamp??

Biden told that CFR (Counsel for Foreign Relations) that he got that guy fired.

He made a big deal out of it and maybe you just can't ignore it, in a way, it's a dare even.

Especially when they know that Trump will immediately take to twitter with his silly names and taunts like a child.

Is he?   Busy doing what?   Anything that might finally bring some justice?  That has yet to be proven.   Could be... he's very busy looking busy.   Guess time (much more time) will tell.  I'm thinking they're waiting till Christmas.  Hopefully it's Christmas of THIS year.   :shrug:

I think this is a very bad sign.  Tucker has always been a staunch supporter of Trump.

Tucker has been very balanced on Trump.  He has not been a one-note Trump supporter.

Yeah apparently he’s talking to folks in Italy, Australia, etc. not sure what ‘backup to the rescue’ means.  We shall see what he comes up with. What ever it is I’m sure you’ll be delighted.

Meaning Barr is to busy so Trump must do it.

There is such a thing as rising above a situation.  I would have respect for the president but if this is about vengeance there is a very real and good Bible scripture.


@Chosen Daughter

Can you explain why an energy company in the Ukraine would pay Hunter Beden nearly $90,000 a MONTH to be on it's board. Recalling that Hunter Beden has zero experience in energy and zero knowledge of the Ukraine. Oh and this was shortly after the U.S. Navy booted him out for using cocaine.  So Chosen, why did they hire Hunter?

I am looking forward to reading your answer.

Well, one thing is for certain! It didn't have a damned thing to do with the fact that Hunter's dad was Vice-President at the time!  /S

Timing and motivation.  It shouldn't be the President, especially during a presidential campaign.  It should be intelligence investigating what happened with the Russia investigation. 

You mean the Intelligence community that has been plotting against him since before he was elected? That Intelligence Community?

Here's the rest of what Carlson and Patel had to say .....


Quote
Tucker And Patel: The Truth About Impeachment
Daily Caller, Oct 3, 2019, Tucker Carlson and Neil Patel

[...]

The key question with Trump’s Ukraine call, though, is whether the president’s actions, advisable or not, rise to the level of an impeachable offense. It’s hard to argue they do. The president did not, as was first reported, offer a quid pro quo to the Ukrainians. He did not condition any U.S. support on a Biden investigation. The Justice Department has already looked at the totality of the call and determined that Trump did not break the law.

Nancy Pelosi has been right all these months when she’s repeatedly said that to be legitimate, impeachment must be bipartisan. Anything less would tear apart our country, she said. In this area, Pelosi is echoing the sentiment a senator expressed during the Clinton impeachment process:

“While the founders included impeachment powers in the Constitution, they were concerned by the potential partisan abuse. We should be no less aware of the dangers of partisanship. As we have seen, the process functions best when there is a broad bipartisan consensus behind moving ahead. The country is not well served when either policy disagreements or personal animosities drive the process.”

Those words ring true today. They were set forth in 1998 by then-Sen. Joe Biden.

Impeaching a president is the most extreme and anti-democratic remedy we have in our system of government. A fundamental cornerstone of our entire system is to respect the will of the voters. The American people elected Trump president of the United States, though a huge part of our political class has never been able to stomach it. They think Trump is unfit to be our president. They definitely don’t want to address seriously the issues that drove voters to the radical step of voting in Trump as our president — issues such as income inequality, economic stagnation and our broken immigration system. It’s easier to pretend that this was all the result of a few Russian Facebook ads or because the same American people who had just elected Barack Obama somehow transformed overnight into a bunch of racists.

The truth is there’s a large part of the left — and some never-Trumpers on the right — who never accepted Trump’s election and have wanted him impeached from the start. The Washington Post ran a piece headlined “The campaign to impeach President Trump has begun” on Jan. 20, 2017 — inauguration day. Talk about no honeymoon — and no respect for America’s voters.

Concerns about the political nature of what we’re seeing were exacerbated when we learned the so-called whistleblower who reported Trump’s Ukraine call was in touch with Rep. Adam Schiff — the Democrats’ lead on impeachment — even before he came forward to the public with his charges. Privately colluding with the staff of some of Trump’s biggest political opponents? That seems a little partisan for a good government whistleblower. It also seems pretty clear that Schiff was dishonest when he went on TV and directly denied prior contact with the whistleblower. None of this means Schiff should be removed from office, but by the standards he’s setting, he certainly could be.

A lot of people in Washington — in both parties — aren’t Trump fans. They complain that Trump doesn’t act the way most presidents act, that his attacks against his opponents are not presidential, that he lacks the requisite political experience and has hired some truly horrible staffers. There may be truth to some of that. Trump has certainly shaken up Washington. His supporters would argue that’s exactly what they wanted him to do. This is a legitimate debate worth having. Fortunately, America’s founders set up a pretty good system to have just this sort of debate every four years: It’s called an election. The next one’s already started. The facts are out there for the American people to weigh as they make their decision. How about we let them sort all this out? There’s no need to come up with thin excuses for a purely partisan impeachment process when we have an election right around the corner.

@Chosen Daughter

While you're at it, Chosen, answer these 2 questions as well:

How many times has a Vice President of the United States literally blackmailed (with a billion dollars) another nation into firing its own top prosecutor?

Considering jpsb's question and my own, how in the hell could ANY President NOT ask the nation in question to investigate such clear corruption that reaches and apparently stems from...quite literally...the American White House?


For the record, my guess is that Chosen will ignore or deflect from all 3 of these questions...but we shall patiently hope otherwise until that occurs.
