ON TARGET

Turnabout

      Ever since the election of President Trump, Democrats and their willing accomplices in the liberal lap-dog fake news media have been beating the drum about supposed collusion between the Trump campaign, the Trump administration, Trump himself and the Russians.  Trump and his allies are supposed to have helped the Russians hack into the e-mails of the Democrat National Committee, Hillary Clinton and the Clinton campaign.  Then too, Trump himself is supposed to have committed obstruction of justice in the matter of General Flynn.  Calls for impeachment of Donald Trump were increasing day by day.

      Now, after months of testimony and investigation we have no evidence of any collusion between the Trump campaign, the Trump administration and the Russians.  Further, there is no evidence at all of any attempted obstruction of justice by the president – none, zip, zero, nada!

      However, the investigations have not been fruitless.  We now know that former President Barack Obama knew about Russian hacking into the Democrat National Committee e-mails, and those of Hillary Clinton and her campaign five months before the election.  What did Obama do about it?  Nothing!  Nor did he even warn those who were the targets of the hacking – his own fellow Democrats.  So you Democrats who are so upset about Russian hacking into your candidate and campaign: Don’t blame Donald Trump.  Blame Barack Obama.

      We also know that then Attorney General Loretta Lynch pressured then FBI Director James Comey to kill the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s e-mail scandal, even telling Comey to refer to the investigation as a “matter,” which is the same term the Clinton Campaign used for it.  So you Democrats who are so livid about obstruction of justice, don’t blame Donald Trump, blame Loretta Lynch.  In fact, top level Democrats Adam Schiff  and Diane Feinstein have called for an investigation of Loretta Lynch.

      How about colluding with the Russians?  Evidence is now out that, when then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was approving the giving of 20% of our uranium to the Russians, many of the businesses that profited from the deal were making large contributions to the Clinton Foundation while Bill Clinton was collecting twice his speaking fee for speeches in Moscow.  By the way, where is the Clinton Foundation now, when Hillary can no longer sell influence through it?  You Democrats ticked off with collusion with the Russians?  Don’t blame Trump – blame Hillary.

      And while we are talking about collusion, how about the collusion between the Democrat National Committee that rigged the primary campaign so that Bernie Sander never had a chance of gaining the Democrat nomination?  When are you Democrats going to get mad about that?

      In light of the evidence that has come to forth, investigations into Donald Trump, his administration and campaign should be ended.  This includes that of Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller, who has already telegraphed his bias by hiring Democrat operatives and donors for the top five positions in his investigation.

      Furthermore, the following should be immediately taken up:

1. Barack Obama should be brought before Congress and put under oath concerning his silence about the Russian hacking of Democrat organizations.

2. Loretta Lynch should be investigated for obstruction of justice.

3. James Comey should be called to answer for leaking government documents.

4. A grand jury should be convened to investigate the Clinton e-mail scandal since the previous investigation was subverted by Loretta Lynch and James Comey.

      Democrats have been setting the dogs on Donald Trump for months.  Now, as a result of the evidence those investigations have revealed, the dogs have turned about and have bitten the Democrats on their hind parts.  Or to quote Obama’s former pastor: “Their chickens are coming home to roost!”
