SHOWDOWN: Pelosi and Schumer Send Letter Ordering Intel Agencies to Ignore Trump’s Declassification Order
Sep 19, 2018

 

The showdown has begun over release of information about FISA abuse by the Obama intel leaders and Democrats. A last minute attempt to delay the declassification is similar to the last minute delay of the Kavanaugh confirmation: “We’ve got a letter” syndrome is the tactic being used again by Democrats to stall the inevitable.

WAIT! WE’VE GOT A LETTER!
 

With the midterms coming up, these attempts to delay the president’s order will backfire. To be clear, the Democrats have no authority to do this.

"Showdown"?

Is it?

It's simply a revelation that were have two different governments/regimes that are trying to run the country.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

How does that not make it a showdown?

This situation couldn't be more black & white. The WH ought to be making a really big noise about it.

Is there any real pushback against the Democrat government trying to usurp and replace the existing one elected in 2016?

The heads of the intel agencies do not report to Mr. Schumer or Mrs. Pelosi.

They report to and take instructions from Mr. Trump.

Take that letter and ... file it.

Showdown? It used to be called sedition, or maybe subversion. Both are illegal activities.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
BY WHAT AUTHORITY?

Pwlosi and Schumer are not in the chain of command of executive branch agencies.

If they wish to affect the declassification of information, pass veto overriding legislation to that effect.

Or their best option: STFU. Really. Can anyone say "accessory after the fact" or Obstruction of Justice?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

You misspelled "ruin", BTW.

Chuckie can demand all he wants to...it won't change the fact that the Constitution along with a 1988 Supreme Court case says the President has the power to do what he's doing and the Congress can't interfere.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Schumer: Constitution? Supreme Court? Who care what they say. We have seven ways from Sunday to change their opinions.

Sadly you're right...they play upon the fact that real Government and History aren't taught anymore and the people are pretty uneducated on that stuff so he can get away with the crap he's saying because the people that hear what he's saying don't know any better.
