In March 2018, then-House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) took to the lectern to announce he had received “assurances” that President Trump was not considering firing special counsel Robert Mueller. “We have a system based upon the rule of law in this country.” A month later, Ryan announced his retirement from Congress.
In July 2018, Ryan refused to permit an effort to impeach then-Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein for obstructing congressional inquiries into the Russian collusion hoax. Ryan’s protection of Mueller and his untimely retirement helped tip the 2018 midterm elections against his party and Nancy Pelosi has held the speaker’s gavel ever since then.
Mueller should have been fired and Ryan should have urged Trump to do it. Mueller proved himself to be a fumbling and doddering fool unable to grasp the basics of the investigation he supposedly led. The real directors of the witch hunt, Trump haters led by Andrew Weissman, abused the powers of the special counsel to leak, smear, and harass the sitting president. It was, from the very start, a political operation intended to deny Trump the full freedom and powers an elected president normally would enjoy. It wasn’t quite a coup because power didn’t change hands. But it added to the continuing loss of confidence Americans have in achieving political change through elections.
As speaker of the House in 2018, Ryan had tremendous power to expose and stop the Russian collusion hoax. Just a month earlier, in February, Representative Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) had released a memorandum revealing that the FBI did indeed use its powers to spy on the Trump campaign to include illegal surveillance of Carter Page. At a point of maximum need, Ryan watched passively as the political jackals in the media and government leveraged Mueller’s bogus investigation into a political win in the 2018 midterms.
Fortunately, Ryan is out of power. If he had had his way, he would have empowered another sprawling political witch hunt in the form of the January 6 commission. As George Will noted in the Washington Post, “on Jan. 6, when a mob sacked the U.S. Capitol, Ryan wept.” How about a few tears for the political prisoners who are being held without bail for nonviolent crimes?
Will captured this quote from Ryan regarding January 6, “it was horrifying to see a presidency come to such a dishonorable and disgraceful end.” Ryan further warned against basing conservatism on “the populist appeal of one personality, or of second-rate imitations. . . . Voters looking for Republican leaders want to see independence and mettle. They will not be impressed by the sight of yes men and flatterers flocking to Mar-a-Lago.” While nobody endorses the January 6 incursion of the Capitol, we don’t need more grandstanding politicians’ crocodile tears to lubricate the pretext for political prosecutions.
Will describes Ryan as the heir to Ronald Reagan, comparing the former speaker to the Gipper throughout the piece. It’s not hard to understand why the Washington Post would publish such a glowing puff piece: Media has already started thinking about 2024 and it wants to manage the Republican primary.
The media successfully meddled in the 2016 Republican presidential primary. None of the non-Trump candidates could get any coverage. The media waited until after Trump secured the nomination to spring its October surprise: the 2005 “Access Hollywood” tapes.
Whatever Trump’s flaws, we need a hundred more just like him. He couldn’t be swayed by offers of wealth during and after his term to bow to special interests; he did what he thought was best for the country and the people.
The political elite hated him because he didn’t play the game and might totally expose it and destroy it. Democrats hated his devotion to the country and the support he would gain for supporting the country and people.
The United Nations,The Globalists the rest of them only want those who abide by their Rules and their Globalists Ideas
Will was a Ronny hating liar 30 years ago. He is what Dr. Hayek called a “collectivist”. His hatred for Ronny could not be more clear than saying the liberal Ronny hating Paul was similar to Ronny.
There has been a trend in America the last 50 (maybe longer and I did not notice) years for organizations to put men on their boards that hate the orgniazions originator. DIs straiten putting Walt haters on its board in early ’70’. Best early example of hoe the “new” DIS hates Walt was a movie that lost $millions (made me happy!) 21 years ago. THE ALQMO This movie had Walt’s hero Davy as a xenophobic, white nationalist! (Gee, is GWB on the DIS Board? NO, kidding)
Reagan Foundation started putting Ronny haters on its Board about 20 years ago. There are 2 members who are D who openly bad mouthed Ronny 30 to 40 years ago. their latestPaul R. is a leftist “Fifth Columnist”
For the cities ka 5th columnist is as an undercover enemy agent who matches, unseen usually, net to the troops. Paul has clearly been an agent of the /dem Party for years; unseen by many.
Make “dis straten” DIS started
walt was a super anti-Semitic, racist individual. all of his so called children’s movies have sexual induendo and socialistic undertones. no different than arnold: get up, took his viarga, banged the maid, breakfast with wife went to work. racist as anyone can be. oh! you know this career whore dog has written 20 books on health??
who owns cnn-disy. whorewood is dying a slow death. America has no faith in the junkie , ripped actor/actress that say one one or two words and kill a 1000 people. movies today have not morals, ethics, or value. notice no biblical references are ever made in movies, if so an automatic XXX rating.
