A Republican Congressman told Fox News the Majority ‘can’t identify a particular crime.’</span>”</p></blockquote><div><br /></div><p>The impeachment inquiry never had much credibility, as Republicans had no evidence incriminating the president.</p><p>That being said, the impeachment was not the goal of the inquiry so much as it was a fishing expedition to see what dirt they could dig up on President Biden in the process.</p><p>A defiant Johnson sent out a statement through a spokesperson falsely citing the debunked allegation that Biden was somehow linked to his son Hunter's business deals...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">It is not surprising that the White House would prefer to close the ongoing House inquiry which has uncovered that the Biden family and their associates received over $20 million from foreign sources, and that President Biden has lied repeatedly. The White House does not get to decide how impeachment gets resolved, that is for Congress to decide</span>.”</p></blockquote><p> </p><p>The now-flailing Republicans had originally based the impeachment inquiry against Biden on the discredited theory that, as vice president, he used U.S. foreign policy to enrich his family by pushing out a Ukrainian prosecutor who was supposedly investigating the Ukrainian gas company Burisma who hired his son to serve on its board.</p><p>This was debunked after U.S. diplomats told Republicans, in 2019 and 2020, that as vice president, Joe Biden merely carried out the policy they designed to rid Ukraine of a dishonest judge who was taking bribes and had refused to investigate Burisma completely destroying the Republican's narrative.</p><p>After this damaging setback, Republicans began relying on the allegations of <a href="https://thegodlessliberal.blogspot.com/2024/02/bombshell-republicans-star-witness-in.html" target="_blank">FBI informant Alexander Smirnov</a>, who claimed Burisma paid both President Biden and Hunter Biden $5 million in bribes.</p><p>This fell apart after that informant was arrested for lying to the FBI about the allegation concerning the bribes and <a href="https://thegodlessliberal.blogspot.com/2024/02/bombshell-republicans-star-witness-in.html" target="_blank">admitted he was working with Russian operatives</a> who were working to advance...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">disinformation narratives that U.S. government officials have engaged in corrupt dealings in Ukraine</span>.”</p></blockquote><p> </p><p>So, at this point, the Republican committee chairmen are merely "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_idiot" target="_blank">useful idiots</a>" doing the bidding of Russian spies.</p><p>This should have ended the farce, but Republicans continue to ignore reality and have now demanded AT&T hand over a decade of Hunter Biden's phone records to complement the thousands of pages of bank statements, emails, text messages, and photos they've already obtained.</p><p>The fishing trip continues.</p>AltEvilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11120109943363370102noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419381627059174669.post-18410109397017893132024-03-16T03:52:00.002-04:002024-03-16T04:11:13.338-04:00Judge Rules DA Fani Willis Can Stay On Trump's Georgia Election Subversion Case But Prosecutor Must Go To Assuage "Appearance Of Impropriety"<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Wade in 2022.</p><p>The clinic Harris visited provides a variety of women’s health services, including birth control and preventive wellness.</p><p>As Harris toured the clinic, she spoke to physicians about how they’ve been affected by abortion bans outside of the state.</p><p>That is because Minnesota has to pick up the cases that North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska cannot fulfill after enacting near-total abortion bans in their states right after the high court’s decision.</p><p>After the state saw an uptick in out-of-state patients, Minnesota signed the “ abortion refuge law," which shields people traveling to the state for abortions from any legal consequences in their home states.</p><p>Harris' visit to the clinic serves to highlight a massive key election issue that divides the Democrats and Republicans as President Joe Biden has made abortion rights a centerpiece of his reelection campaign heading into the 2024 November race against Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.</p><p>After arriving at the facility, Harris called out lawmakers who seek to roll back access to women’s healthcare and asserted that women in the U.S. are "<span style="color: #e69138;">silently suffering</span>" following the reversal of Roe v. Wade...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>"<span style="color: #e69138;">I will tell you, it is because right now in our country, we are facing a very serious health crisis. And the crisis is affecting many, many people in our country, most of whom are, frankly, silently suffering after the United States Supreme Court took a constitutional right that had been recognized from the people of America, from the women of America. In states around our country, extremists have proposed and passed laws that have denied women access to reproductive health care. </span></p></blockquote><blockquote><p><span style="color: #e69138;">And the stories abound. I have heard stories and have met with women who had miscarriages in toilets. Women who were being denied emergency care because the health care providers there at an emergency room were afraid that because of the laws in their state that they could be criminalized, sent to prison for providing health care. So I’m here at this health care clinic to uplift the work that is happening in Minnesota as an example of what true leadership looks like, which is to understand it is only right and fair that people have access to the health care they need, and that they have access to health care in an environment where they are treated with dignity and respect</span>."</p></blockquote><p><br /></p><p>You can watch that below...</p><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EP-Pan0Ss0k?si=156QK69jXHI7GAvf" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>Jacqueline Ayers, senior vice president of policy, organizing, and campaigns at Planned Parenthood, said in a released statement...</p><div><br /></div><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">Today is a historic day for Planned Parenthood, as this visit marks the first time in history that a sitting Vice President has visited a Planned Parenthood health center.

But I think it’s more, again, the tough guy thing.</span>”</p></blockquote><p><br /></p><p>Apparently, Trump’s admiration for Hitler went further than the German leader’s economic policies, according to Kelly, as he also expressed admiration for Hitler’s hold on senior Nazi officers. </p><p>Kelly recalled that Trump lamented over Hitler's senior staff’s “<span style="color: #e69138;">loyalty</span>” to the dictator and explained he wanted such obedience. </p><p>Kelly said...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">He would ask about the loyalty issues and about how, when I pointed out to him the German generals as a group were not loyal to him, and in fact tried to assassinate him a few times, and he didn’t know that.

The size and scope of the new changes within the GOP’s formal political and fundraising apparatus may take several weeks to become clear.</p><p>Aware of internal concerns about the committee’s level of commitment to Trump, LaCivita said last week that “<span style="color: #e69138;">not a penny of the RNC’s money</span>” would go to pay Trump’s mounting legal fees.</p><p>This was, however, after Lara Trump <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4467232-lara-trump-spend-rnc-funds-to-elect-donald-trump/" target="_blank">said last month</a>...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">Every single penny will go to the No. 1 and the only job of the RNC — that is elected Donald J.

Katie Britt to give the rebuttal to President Joe Biden's State of the Union address last Thursday as she had a story about the horrific sex trafficking of a 12-year-old girl locked and loaded in her arsenal that she had been telling for months.</p><p>The story dovetailed perfectly with their anti-immigrant fear-mongering, and Britt was all too happy – maybe a little TOO happy – to oblige.</p><p>In her rebuttal, Britt gave an over the top histrionic laden performance in which she lingered on the lurid details of the child victim of the sex trafficking, including a description of the room she was raped in, how many times she was raped a day before laying the blame directly at President Biden's feet, saying...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">We wouldn’t be OK with this happening in a third-world country. This is the United States of America, and it is past time, in my opinion, that we start acting like it. President Biden’s border policies are a disgrace. This crisis is despicable.</span>”</p></blockquote><p><br /></p><p>The problem is that the story was from 20 years ago; it didn't occur in America; it wasn't perpetrated by a drug cartel; it happened after she was kicked out of her home by her mother; and it happened during the George W. Bush administration.</p><p>In addition, the woman who survived the terrifying story, Karla Jacinto, did not confide her story to Britt – she told it while on a panel in Mexico, the Senator was on – has long been an advocate for sex trafficking victims and even told her story in front of the U.S. Congress in 2015.</p><p>After Britt defended her retelling in an interview Sunday with the Fox Network, Jacinto decided to speak out against her for purposely distorting her story and using it for political gain.</p><p>Jacinto told CNN on Sunday when asked about Britt's motive...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">In fact, I hardly ever cooperate with politicians because it seems to me that they only want an image. They only want a photo, and that to me is not fair,</span>”</p></blockquote><p> </p><p>Jacinto added that she would like to see politicians be more empathetic with "<span style="color: #e69138;">the issue of human trafficking</span>," adding...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>"<span style="color: #e69138;">There are millions of girls and boys who disappear all the time.

Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) was interviewed this Sunday on “This Week” by George Stephanopoulos.<p></p><p>During the interview, the host asked a perplexing question of Mace, who has been an advocate for sexual assault victims, having been raped herself at the age of 16.</p><p>It is for that reason that Stephanopoulos delved into the complexities of Mace's endorsement of Donald Trump, whom a jury just recently found liable for the rape of writer E. Jean Carroll and asked how she could come to such a decision.</p><p>What Mace did next gave a terrifying look into just what true MAGA cultists are willing to overlook and forgive in order to justify their loyalty to Donald Trump.</p><p>It began with Stephanopoulos questioning Mace, saying...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>"<span style="color: #e69138;">You've endorsed Donald Trump for president. Donald Trump has been found liable for rape by a jury. Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that rape by a jury. It's been affirmed by a judge.</span>"</p></blockquote><p> </p><p>Mace completely dodges the question and instead accuses Stephanopoulos of trying to “<span style="color: #e69138;">shame</span>” her for being a rape victim...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">Well, I will tell you that I was raped at the age of 16, and any rape victim will tell you I’ve lived for 30 years with an incredible amount of shame. I didn’t come forward because of that judgment and shame that I felt, and it’s a shame that you will never feel, George, and I’m not going to sit here on your show and be asked a question meant to shame me about another potential rape victim. I’m not going to do that.</span>”</p></blockquote><div><br /></div><p>Stephanopoulos, who seemed to be prepared for Mace's tactic, pushed back, saying...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">It’s actually not about shaming you. You’ve endorsed Donald Trump for president. Donald Trump has been found liable for rape by a jury. Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that rape by a jury. It’s been affirmed by a judge</span>.”</p></blockquote><div><br /></div><p>A now visibly angry Mace replied...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">It’s not a criminal court case, number one. Number two, I live with shame, and you’re asking me a question about my political choices, trying to shame me as a rape victim, and I find it disgusting.</span>”</p></blockquote><p><br /></p><p>It was then that Mace did the unthinkable and proceeded to "<span style="color: #e69138;">shame</span>" E. Jean Carroll — the woman Trump was found guilty of raping!...</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p>“<span style="color: #e69138;">Quite frankly, E. Jean Carroll’s comments when she did get the judgment, joking about what she was going to buy, it makes it harder for women to come forward when they make a mockery out of rape.
