First Step on the Path
to Take Total Control
Final and Ultimate Goal: King Donald the XLV
From all I have read, heard, and seen with on-going events all around us, this all GOP-run House and Senate had better wake up
and fulfill their sworn duty and refocus on the three branches of government, checks and
balances, and separation of powers.
Trump is more and more seeking to take “over
or trying to take charge” of all three branches of government. He appears hell
bent on making the country his latest business transaction. He seems to see
himself as the National CEO and the other two branches are simply rubber stamp lackeys
on his board of directors.
Case in point and recent great
example here
from Mediaite:
In late January, Associate AG Stephen Boyd sent a letter to House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) saying that releasing the much-discussed FISA memo that Nunes and his staff prepared claiming FISA abuses would be “extraordinarily reckless.”

Boyd stated to
Nunes hat publicly releasing the document without having the DOJ and FBI review
it would risk ongoing investigations.
So, guess who was really not very happy with Boyd for sending that latter once he heard about it? Yep, “The Donald.”

According to Bloomberg, Trump flipped out when he found out about Boyd’s letter to Nunes while he
was flying to Davos on Air Force One. Trump’s frustrations reportedly
“boiled over” when he was informed.
My 2 Cents: There are other examples of Trump’s
power play – this must never stand or be allowed under our system.
Clearly, the House and Senate, the Supreme
Court, and Executive Branch under Trump all have clearly defined lanes – they ought
to stay in those lanes while maintaining close coordination and cooperation for
the country as a whole. None of them separately must not attempt to take over
one of the other branches. That would not sit well with the public.
For Trump
to accomplish that aim, which I think he clearly wants, would cause a dramatic
constitutional crisis perhaps beyond any repair down the road, and as I said, that
must not be allowed to ever happen.
Stay tuned and thanks for stopping by.
