Investigations to nowhere and Rat establishment Republicans throw bombs while fleeing senate

Oh my gosh!  I went to bed thinking that PDJT was going to be impeached for Russian collusion during the 2016 campaign.  I woke up this morning to news Shrillda the Hutt, John Podesta, The Empty Suit, the DNC et al are under investigation for Russian involvement (i.e. bribes, kickbacks and money laundering) in uranium one, paying for the Russian dossier, e-mail scandals etc. 

Don’t get excited.  DoJ had the IRS dead to rights on targeting conservatives for political purposes and let them all off the hook.  Jeff Sessions is a swamp creature.  How do I know?  Well, if he weren’t there would already be FBI investigations of the Hutt, Lois Learner, John Koskinen, Muller, Comey and at least another dozen Dope operatives who weaponized the federal government against the people of the United States.

My guess is that these investigations will end like all Caligula, D.C. investigations involving Dopes.  It’ll drag on for weeks, months, years.  Dopes and Rat establishment Republicans will close ranks to protect the perps and the investigations will go precisely nowhere.

If you doubt that, consider all of the indictments handed down in the IRS, VA, Fast and Furious, Benghazi, Hutt e-mail, EPA etc. etc. etc. scandals.  Lemmesee, 0+0+0+0+0+0 equals, what?

In the case of Uranium One and the Russian Dossier if you consider the “investigators” Muller, McCabe, Rosenstein are all themselves part of what needs to be investigated, how can the fix NOT be in?

Swamp dwellers being under investigation by other swamp dwellers is actually a blessing for the perps.  The findings of such investigations are already baked into the cake.  So the investigations drag on, and on, and on.  Then they just go away allowing the perps to say, “That’s been investigated for years and I’ve been exonerated.”

I’ll get excited when/if AG Sessions appoints an aggressive no nonsense Independent Counsel to get to the bottom of this BS.  Short of that, I know how it’ll all end.  We’ve seen this show – and that’s exactly all it is, a show - a hundred times.

Rat establishment Republicans exiting swamp before Swamp Creature Killer Steve Bannon gets them in his sites
In the post several under titled Narcissism and West Point Scandal, in the West Point portion of that post, Lex notes that when scoundrels are found out to be scoundrels they, often as not, like a drowning man, try to drag as many people around them down with them as possible.  In the case of the Point and these senators, it appears that they are even willing to try to scuttle their own institutions.

Jeff Flake and Bob Corker fall into this category.  Both are pretty much unelectable to anything other than “dog catcher.”  So rather than suffer an Alabama Sen. Luther the Strange type of humiliation at the hands of Steve Bannon in a contested primary, they decide it’s “time to spend more time with the family.”  That’s swamp talk for, “I know I’m in for an azzwippin’ so I’ll retire*.”

*NOTE:  Corker entered the Senate in 2007.  It’s 2017.  Lemmesee, that’s about 10 years.  So how the hell do you retire from something after 10 years?  Okay to be honest, it’ll be 12 years by the time his current term is up.  But still WTF?  Retire at 12 years?  I would think if PDJT wanted to tweak these guys, he’d go after their “retirement.”  What started the whole PDJT/Corker kerfuffle was PDJT saying taxing 401Ks was off the table.  PDJT should point out that, until congress’ retirement is predicated on 401Ks, they are off the table.

*NOTE 2:  Lex’s congressional retirement plan:

RULE 1:  If you’re in congress less than 20 years you don’t rate retirement. 

Rule 2:  If you’re in congress for 20 years or more, you’re part of the problem and don’t rate retirement.

These ruling class azzwipes need to be made a little less comfortable.  Serving in Congress was never meant to be a permanent or even full-time job.  Someone once said, “The country started its decline when they installed air conditioning at the Capitol Building.”

 

*NOTE 3: Flake is a different case.  He entered congress in 2000.  He’s a liar.  How do I know?  He pledged to term limit himself to 3 terms.  He didn’t. He’s a weasel.  The people in AZ who know him best, know he’s a weasel.  That’s why he’s done.  That’s why he’s burning down the house on the way out the door. In his tantrum from the floor of the senate, Flake said, “Silence can equal complicity. I will not be complicit or silent.”    Uh, Jeff, seems to me the best way not to be “silent” or “complicit” would be to stay and fight PDJT in the senate.  Instead Flake has cut and run to avoid the obvious azzwipin’ Bannon was measuring him for.
