Schiff Issues Subpoena for Whistleblower Complaint Being Unlawfully Withheld

[HomerJS]

To “take up arms” you need to both own arms and not be afraid of them. Which the average Democratic voter is not in any way, shape, or form. You guys would just hurt yourselves and damage the equipment worse than millennials trying to drive a stick shift car.

Nothing scares righties more then armed black people. Read you history of gun control.

Come on, all you 2A people should be behind this. After all you coined the phrase "2nd amendment remedies" Are you saying all that bluster about defending against a tyrannical government was just bluster??

I always get reminded of the times when I'm reading forums and conservatives get all happy and post smiley Emojis about how in the coming civil war libruuls are going to get just-fucking-wasted(!!!!) by conservatives with guns.

Keep on keepin' on, scumfuck.

I didn't say that it did exempt anyone. I only stated that MANY 2A Supporters Have already fought at the behest of our government and country. You shouldn't call them chicken because they support the 2A.


It also doesn't say that you must join a well regulated militia to bear arms either.

A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.


Shall not be infringed is pretty definitive.

people is the plural form.

how the hell did it become an "individual" right. Only "people" can keep guns, not "person." This obviously refers back to the subject: militia.

Oh, words mean different things to you? Or do you agree that this only very contemporary interpretation of the 2nd amendment is taking some obvious liberties with language?

Honestly, it couldn't be any clearer, but you've taken the side of a powerful lobbying group instead of the United States of America.

I'm not questioning the right of progressives to exercise 2A remedies, I'm questioning your knowledge of the tools and desire to do so. The average progressive knows as much about firearms as the average conservative does about 3rd wave feminist poetry - namely less than nothing. And progressives probably have as little desire to engage in armed rebellion as conservatives do for being the next contestant on RuPaul's Drag Race or eating Cantonese braised duck tongues instead of Cracker Barrel.

Trump on Monday repeated his denial of doing anything improper and insisted that his July 25 conversation with Zelensky was “a perfect phone call.” He also hinted that he may release a transcript of it.

I'm gonna guess that the "transcript" will be written in Sharpie pen in familiar handwriting.

Here's the thing about the "Biden got the prosecutor fired because he wanted to protect his son's company" theory: it's bass-ackwards. The reason so many international organizations wanted Shokin ousted was that he was viewed as an enabler of corruption, and among his alleged wrongdoings was burying the Burisma investigation in return for bribes. This is a point obscured by Trump and his allies.

A Republican Conspiracy Theory About a Biden-in-Ukraine Scandal Has Gone Mainstream. But It Is Not True. (Robert Mackey, The Intercept, 10 May 2019)

excerpt for the TL;DR crowd:

To illustrate what he called “rot in the prosecutor’s office,” [New York Times writer Andrew] Kramer cited a notorious example, known in Ukraine as the case of the “diamond prosecutors,” in which “troves of diamonds, cash and other valuables were found in the homes of two of Mr. Shokin’s subordinates, suggesting that they had been taking bribes. But the case became bogged down, with no reasons given.” [ed. note: original article appears as next cite, below]

Among the most prominent cases of official corruption Shokin had failed to pursue was against Yanukovych’s environment and natural resources minister, Mykola Zlochevsky, who had oversight of all Ukrainian energy firms, including the largest independent gas company, Burisma, which he secretly controlled through shell companies in Cyprus. After Zlochevsky was forced from office along with Yanukovych in 2014, his gas company appointed Hunter Biden to its board.

“Shokin was fired,” [Daria] Kaleniuk[, an American-educated lawyer who founded Ukraine’s Anti-Corruption Action Center] observed, “because he failed to do investigations of corruption and economic crimes of President Yanukovych and his close associates, including Zlochevsky, and basically it was the big demand within society in Ukraine, including our organization and many other organizations, to get rid of this guy.”

Trump has said that there was no problem, that they may relate the transcript, that he hopes people can see it, that they shouldn't release the transcript, and that they won't practically in the same breath. It's incomprehensible bullshit as usual.

If I didn't think you were trolling, I'd be amazed at how complete of a bubble you appear to live in. There are plenty of salt-of-the-earth type progressives out there.

Someday you guys really need to decide if liberals are tyrannical despots that will crush you and destroy freedom or feckless wimps that aren’t a danger to anyone.

I don’t care which one you pick, just pick one.

Looking like that is the case. Pelosi should toss this mess in their laps. If they want to cover Trump's corrupt actions they should be made to do it for all to see.

Let's be clear.

The House has...the Sargent at Arms. Some of his duties are protecting Capitol parking lots.

The White House has...the Secret Service, CIA, and US military.

What makes you think Strongman Trump is going to abide by the Sargent at Arms attempting to arrest any of his current co-conspirators?

Are you sufficiently prepared to actually fight for your country? Right now?

It's not a matter of whether Strongman Trump is dangerous, or should be Impeached. It's whether it's the right move right now.

It's arguable about whether it should be tomorrow, or after these accusations have more substance. It's also arguable about whether Strongman Trump being effectively proven "innocent" (to a whole lot of Americans) by the Senate would end up killing the country by making a solid Strongman Trump "win" in November of 2020 more likely.

If, as I suspect, Republicans in the US Senate are loyal to Strongman Trump rather than the Constitution, country, or citizenry, a failed Impeachment may be better for Strongman Trump than a "win" in 2020. Hell, it could negate the need for 2020, if you ask Strongman Trump. And you won't have to, because he'll tell you and his millions of emphatic, armed supporters as much on Twitter, over and over.

Then what? More Impeachment?

Do you think everything I've just stated is unlikely, given everything we've seen so far? I'm interested in how you think an Impeachment tomorrow works out.

The US still has the Constitution and those agencies you mention are sworn to defend it over all, including Trump. If the SAG makes an arrest then they are obliged to stay out of it or be guilty of insurrection. If there is an impeachment it will not fail as impeachment requires a simple majority and there are a hell of a lot more Dems than Reps.

It is true that Trump may survive a trial in the Senate but what will be presented to them will be gleaned from the extraordinary powers the House will have as the Burglars and Nixon learned. All of it will come out and the courts will assist at this point. Trump is now against 2/3 of the Branches with the full support of precedent and Constitutional authority. If Trump tries to enlist the military he may face the first military coup in our history. Why? Because a rogue President openly defying our nations legitimate authority becomes an "enemy domestic".

If it comes to the SCOTUS Thomas will support Satan if President, and Kavanaugh might. The others? Start measuring the metaphorical casket for the Administration. Also millions of people shooting? Shooting their mouths off perhaps but they'll have fewer showing than at Area 51.

I'll be damned if I let some loud-mouthed beautiful being create anything other than a righteous whoop-ass sentiment as far as I am concerned.

Let the chips fall where they may.

Remember yesterday I said that we need to be cautious, at least until a certain point is reached? Today is the day that changed and we have crossed the Rubicon.

I'm sure the South thought similarly during the lead up to the Civil War. It is funny that you think learning how to use guns is difficult. It would take less than a week to train someone who has never fired a gun.

What's hilarious is glenn's tough guy attitude when he's at home shitting his diaper over every little thing. I'm gonna laugh my ass off they tried it and then glenn sees his right wing patriots smashed by tanks (finally a legit use for the Abrams in the modern world) or bombed to shit by dronestrikes after they try and go ISIS. Which I'd laugh even more if after that happens they try and scramble off to their booby trapped piss bunkers that they've been building in the wilderness, as they'll probably end up dead after the dumbfucks start wildfires that suffocate them and burn their white power cult compounds.

Even their ARs aren't gonna mean jack shit against US military weaponry. And the generals aren't gonna cede power to Turmp, even the Rubs desperate to ride his greasy shitstreak to wealth and power don't want that and would do everything they could to prevent him using the military to maintain power - that's not to say they won't try to enable him to stay President, they definitely will but they know what will happen if the military is used against America - their wealth and power will go right into the toilet and that's if they don't end up straight up dead in the chaos.

Then again, its just glenn trying to delude himself about the state of right wingers. They're pussy ass bitch terrorists. More and more Americans are seeing them for what they are and they'll be lucky if they don't end up cracked down on hard (as in ending up tried for treason and put to death for it) if they try and pull the shit he's dreaming of. A less capable FBI took down a far more dominant KKK in its heyday. If the right wingers think they'll take over the country by running off to buttfuck each other in the backwoods, let alone if they try and pull ISIS type shit, they're gonna be tasting curbs.

Just to remind you, it was a progressive who brought up the subject of "2A remedies" that I was responding to. You've somehow managed to turn that into a screed about right-wing folks instead when the post was about progressives taking up arms.

Since righties have constantly argued 2A is to save our country from tyranny might be time to take up arms against our own government as long as Trump is in office.

Just a thought
