n January 2017, the man that would eventually become an attorney for the so-called “Ukraine whistleblower” sent a cryptic tweet.
“The coup has started,” he wrote.
The similarities between the political antics of the Left and those of Banana Republics I’ve spent years reporting on are growing eerily similar. The Speaker of the House just unveiled the most political of political moves. Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she intends to create a commission to evaluate President Trump for removal from office under the 25th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. In the months and years that followed, America dealt with the Russia-Mueller investigation, followed by the Ukraine impeachment scandal... And now, on the eve of the 2020 election, the so-called “coup” has been thrown into high gear.
Three weeks ahead of a presidential election, the Speaker of the House wants to use our 25th Amendment – which allows the vice president and Congress in the event of death, removal, resignation, or incapacitation – to remove the president from office. The similarities between the political antics of the Left and those of Banana Republics I’ve spent years reporting on are growing eerily similar. Pelosi’s idea is to create a new “Commission on Presidential Capacity to Discharge the Powers and Duties of Office” in an effort to “ensure effective and uninterrupted leadership in the highest office.” I suspect this idea will backfire in an epic way. Instead of focusing on the issues at hand, she’s signaling that she’s willing to effectively steal the votes of the millions of Americans that chose the president before they have an opportunity to decide for themselves. Once again, Pelosi’s proving her critics right when they say she and her party care nothing for the individual and only for bureaucracy and big government.
