The days of dodging subpoenas are coming to an end. When Democrats take back this House in November, there won’t be a single member of this Cabinet who won’t be under the full weight of our investigative authority.
Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell (February 2026)
If history is any lesson, electing Democrats in November won’t advance peace and prosperity. Trump may have you pining for bipartisanship, but think twice before putting gavels in the hands of his arch enemies, who are already threatening cabinet secretaries with criminal referrals (see Swalwell’s comments above). Yikes! And in the last eleven months, Democrats have introduced over 20 articles of impeachment against the President. Recall the last two impeachments: is that really what you want?
Not if Democrats coach witnesses and withhold evidence. Which is why most Americans don’t care about Russiagate or the first two impeachments. No joke, and most polls show Democrats alone (i.e. not majorities of Republicans or Independents) think Trump was guilty. So, why would they do it again? Hmm…because they think make-believe crimes and perps level the 2028 playing field by forcing Rubio and Vance to answer “criminal referral” questions ad nauseam.
Go back to the 2018 mid-term elections, when the GOP got 12.5 million fewer votes than in 2016 (compared to Democrats getting 5.5. million fewer). That resulted in 40 new Democrats in the House of Representatives and – not even a year later – Speaker Pelosi (D-CA) initiating Trump’s first impeachment trial. I’m a Trump agnostic, but Democrat behavior since 2018…well, if that doesn’t scare you, then nothing else will:
- December 2019 – Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a formal impeachment inquiry against the 45th president
- February 2020 – Democrats horse-traded Biden into primary win (SC) to stop Bernie Sanders (again)
- March 2020 – Pelosi pushed $2.2 trillion CARES Act through the House
- October 2020 – 42 Democrats signed the Russian Disinformation letter to squelch “Hunter Biden Laptop” story
- November 2020 – Biden won most votes ever (23.4% more than Clinton 2016 and 8.3% more than Harris 2024)
- December 2020 – Pelosi pushed $900 billion Omnibus Bill through the House
- January 2021 – Government reported 70.6 million 2020 mail-in ballots (139% more than 2016 and 44.3% more than 2024)
- February 2021 – Time magazine’s cover story on “cabal…shadow campaign…conspiracy” that influenced 2020 election
- March 2021 – Pelosi pushed $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act through the House
- November 2021 – Pelosi pushed $1.2 trillion Infrastructure and Jobs Act through the House
- February 2022 – National debt surpassed $30 trillion for first time ever
- June 2022 – Inflation “headline number” hit 9.1%, a 40-year high
- August 2022 – Pelosi pushed $891 billion Inflation Reduction Act through the House
- November 2022 – Democrats lost the House of Representatives
From Day One, most political analysts called Trump’s “behavior” a liability. That’s WHY Clinton 2016 thought Russiagate was a good idea (the FEC begged to differ in 2022 with a $110,000 fine). That’s WHY anti-Trump prosecutors elicited “88 felony counts” from grand juries – – that were ignored in November 2024, when 77.3 million voters (a GOP record) tossed Democrats into the political wilderness. To be sure, winning by 2.3 million votes did not “exonerate” Trump, but it did prove Democrat behavior made him the “least risky choice” to most voters. Translation: a love/hate relation with Republicans is preferable to a hate/hate relation with Democrats.
Last week, DNI Tulsi Gabbard gave mid-term voters yet another reason to think twice about the Democrat on the ballot: declassified documents, including interview transcripts, that show a coordinated effort by Democrats to oust Trump, or at least affect the 2020 election. And smack dab in the middle is now-senator Adam Schiff (D-CA), who used his position as House Intelligence Committee Chair to conceal exonerating evidence.
The disgusting tale starts on August 12, 2019, when an Obama NSC hire (Eric Ciaramella) contacted a Democrat House Intelligence Committee chair’s (Schiff) staff AND an Obama holdover IG (Michael Atkinson) to discuss hearsay that a Republican president (Trump) had attempted to “solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. elections” by pushing Ukraine to investigate his “main political rival,” Joe Biden. That’s all the Democrat House Speaker (Pelosi) needed to initiate a formal impeachment inquiry.
Turns out the official call transcript shows, at most, that Trump referenced widely reported public information; i.e. Biden’s 2018 admission to the Council on Foreign Relations that he’d leveraged US loan guarantees to secure the firing of the Ukrainian investigating Hunter Biden’s firm, Burisma. Thus, given US financial exposure and foreign policy concerns, the Trump-Zelensky call was within the scope of legitimate diplomatic discussion between a US president and Ukraine president.
Turns out the FBI found emails on Hunter Biden’s laptop that documented Burisma’s board chair explicitly demanding a “deliverable” from Hunter; i.e. intervene to stop the Ukrainian government’s investigation of Burisma, which Joe Biden did. Call me old-fashioned, but it sure looks like Ciaramella ignored a Democrat vice-president’s conflict of interest in order to accuse a Republican president of an impeachable offense. The impeachment went nowhere, Trump was un-elected and re-elected in the years that followed, and…
…there are now active, high-level investigations into a Democrat conspiracy to undermine a duly-elected Republican president. Proving a “conspiracy” is difficult, but Tulsi Gabbard has released three bits of evidence that we the people should consider before Election Day.
The first is the whistle blower’s motive to act upon hearsay; Ciaramella was a registered Democrat, who had personally worked on Ukraine with Joe Biden and Sean Misko, the national security analyst who’d become a key impeachment staffer for Adam Schiff (source: The Federalist). Ciaramella did not disclose this to the IG, nor that he’d briefed Schiff’s office about his complaint before filing it. Further, the IG noted that “getting the intelligence committees to investigate the Trump allegations ‘is what the whistleblower intends'” (source: Real Clear Politics).
The second is the violation of disclosure requirements, beginning with the whistleblower standard of first-hand knowledge. Not only was Ciaramella not on the Tump-Zelensky call (relying on the account of Alexander Vindman, whose Trump animus is well documented), Atkinson never investigated his interactions with Schiff’s staff. Worsening the optics, Atkinson post-dated – to before Ciaramella had briefed Schiff’s staff – a change to the rule requiring “first-hand information” before he could process the complaint; thereby expediting an allegation that Trump “had clearly committed a criminal act” in a 30-minute phone call.
The third is the credibility of the men behind the impeachment, starting with Vindman. His twin brother Eugene (D-VA) is an anti-Trump member of the House (“Donald Trump and his lackeys are working overtime to weaponize the government”) and Alexander’s Senate (D-FL) campaign video is decidedly anti-Trump (“This president has unleashed a reign of terror and retribution”). Michael Atkinson was fired by Trump (“The persistent attacks are not about efficiency, they are about silencing dissent”) and Adam Schiff is at war (“in four years, we will not be a democracy“).
These men’s right to say sh*t about the President is protected AND so is the right to be skeptical of Adam Schiff and the Vindman brothers (that’s how Mr. Trump keeps winning elections: voters ignore the intellectual food fight and vote the issues). Ten years into Donald Trump’s political life, I behold two self-evident truths.
One, the President’s spoken and tweeted words have deservedly made him a lightning rod for criticism and distrust, but his policies and positions have deservedly earned him support from former Democrat voting blocs, such as working-class whites.
Two, the only thing worse than what Democrats say about Trump is what they’re trying to do in California, New York and Virginia.
It is, thus, the time to re-consider the words of George Harrison, that most benevolent of all Beatles
Watch out now, take care, beware of greedy leadersThey’ll take you where you should not goWhile weeping Atlas CedarsThey just want to grow, grow and growBeware of darkness
