The Gambit For the Gavel

The U.S. House of Representatives seemed to have turned into a shit-show.

While there are more eloquent ways to express that sentiment, I rather doubt there any more accurate ways to express it but to be honest, things aren’t always as they seem.

On Thursday, January 5th, Kevin McCarthy lost his seventh ballot to become the Speaker of the House. Consistently, he had gotten in the neighborhood of 200-201 votes where he needed 218 to win the gavel. Consistently, there were in the neighborhood of 20 House republicans who simply would not vote for McCarthy…PERIOD.

Here’s the deal…

Nobody could be sworn in as a Member of the House until there is a Speaker of the House, and at that point, we did not have a Speaker of the House. None of the people’s business could be done until House Members elect are sworn in, and without a Speaker, nobody could be sworn in.

By early Friday, January 6th, there had been 12 votes.

Same result each time.

Obviously, liberals desperately want President Trump to be guilty of quid pro quo. They know he’s not, but that doesn’t alter their desperation driven desire for it. To that effect, liberals have been shifting the semantics of it from quid pro quo, to extortion, to bribery, and even though they have found him guilty of it, they haven’t been able to produce any evidence of it.

For the sake of clarity, allow me to provide to you the definition of quid pro quo: a favor or advantage granted or expected in return for something.

Whether or not quid pro quo is either a high crime or misdemeanor is open to conjecture. Our Founders and Framers never defined what they meant by the term, nor did they provide examples of what would qualify in such respect.

In fact, the process of impeachment, as set forth in the Constitution, was never intended to be a legal matter. Instead, it was always meant to be a political process which is why our Founders and Framers made it difficult to accomplish.

Let me explain…

So far, throughout the inquisition against President Trump, the House’s Lack of Intelligence Committee has, behind closed doors, and in public hearings, brought forth a parade of bureaucratic “witnesses” who “witnessed” nothing to testify against the President.

During the public hearings, those of us crazy enough to have watched the debacle were treated to a badly orchestrated, and ill-conceived circular firing squad as one so-called “witness” after another did more harm to the liberal case against President Trump than they did good. But there was something that stood out, something that had it only happened once may well have been ignored as some sort of aberration, but it happened over and over again.

It continued to happen not once, not twice, but several times with each stuffed shirt bureaucrat in the hot seat. It happened because the Republicans forced it to happen, and it was brilliant.

It finally got to the point that to try and make the elephant in the hearing room invisible, democrats on that committee gave it a dismissive name. What I’m talking about is Joe and Hunter Biden’s involvement in the real corruption that should be on trial, and the meddling in our 2016 election by Ukraine.

Democrats started calling all of that…
