Never forget, China is a commie sh*thole

The coronavirus
All countries are the same.  No.  They’re not.  Some are sh*thole countries.  China is a sh*thole country.  “Lex how can you say that?  China has a colorful millennia old vibrant culture with many contributions to the advancement of mankind.”  Yes they do.  As they say, “What have you done for me lately?”  Today the country is a Godless communist sh*thole, and their main contribution is letting loose one deadly virus after another on mankind.

China spy’s on us, poisons our pets with tainted dog food, poisons our children with lead infused baby toys, poisons us with mold infused drywall, steals anything not nailed down and covered 24/7 by armed guards.  They are an aggressive military foe in the Pacific.  They are destabilizing Africa, South America and the Middle East with their belt and road initiatives financed largely with our money stolen through financial manipulation trade inequities and thievery of intellectual property.  They are worthless commie sh*ts.

I am not happy that the Chinese people are suffering due the commie bastard government’s incompetence, but unlike most, I hope they go broke trying to fix their F-up.  I hope every company doing business in the commie sh*thole, if they don’t get out altogether, considers secondary supply chain opportunities outside one of the last commie strongholds in the world. My hope is that enough companies leave or downsize to cause the commie scum serious financial problems that leads to civil unrest and revolution that has that ugly little pimp and dictator for life Xi begging his buddy lil’ Rocketman for asylum to save his worthless azz.  That’s not likely, but that’s my hope.

“Lex that’s horribly destabilizing and could cause a world-wide financial crisis.”  Yeah, Dollar Tree and Wal-Mart would be in serious trouble.  The world need not suffer the predicted financial collapse if business pulls its collective head out of its azz and diversifies its supply chains and leaves the commie scumbags scrambling to make up market share.

     

Besides, what’s more destabilizing to long term world peace an emergent, meddlesome, aggressive, and militarily dominant China or a China mired in domestic troubles focused inward?  It’s time we recognize that China is a military and economic foe not a competitor.  We should take the opportunity of this virus to drive the commie bastard Chinese SOBs down as far as possible. 

Today’s JG Rant
Re: JG editorial “Vote of conscience” of Jan 30, 2020.

If the soulless, hate-filled, hypocritical, partisan House Democrats and their MSM lackeys had taken the high road, the nation would never have been mired in an impeachment mess.  If House Democrats had exercised one ounce of caution, common sense or fair play, if they’d have had the courage to ignore the foulmouthed screeching mob on their left, if they’d have had the good sense to follow the criteria for impeachment laid out by their own leader, if they’d have had the memory to recall and wisdom heed the warnings on impeachment issued by senior members of their own party with regard to the Clinton impeachment, if they’d taken one second to consider the good of the nation and put that ahead of partisan politics, if they’d have done any or all of that the cruelty the House Democrats concocted would never have been loosed on the American people.

They ignored it all.  They loaded a dump truck full of steaming, dripping bovine excrement and dumped it into the well of the senate.  Then Democrats and the JG suggested it was Indiana Senator Todd Young’s responsibility to rid the senate of the stench.  The air freshener they claimed would cover the unpleasant odor was testimony from John Bolton.  Nonsense.

Even if one believes everything the NY Times purports to be in Bolton’s upcoming book, nothing in that account is dispositive of the issues in dispute.  PDJT and his Chief of Staff both deny Bolton’s account.  AG Barr branded Bolton’s account a “gross mischaracterization” of the truth. So the absolute best Democrats could have hoped for was Bolton telling his story and the rest of the people in the know in the government denying it.  So what was to be gained?  Absolutely nothing.

Editorial

Vote of conscience

Young can rise above Senate's partisanship

Friday could be a defining moment for U.S. Sen. Todd Young.

Young's Indiana colleague, Sen. Mike Braun, calls the impeachment process “a sham” and has made it clear he will do nothing to slow down the Senate's exoneration of President Donald Trump.  

Young seems to have been careful to avoid foreclosing his options in the trial, stressing his intention to do his job as an impeachment juror. 

Before the end of this week, senators may be asked to vote on whether to hear witnesses in Trump's trial. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has demanded his Republican colleagues line up behind him to defeat that proposal.

Those who have already expressed certainty of Trump's innocence should welcome the opportunity to hear from key witnesses. If the reported allegations of John Bolton, the president's former national security adviser, are to be discounted, for instance, why not put him on the stand and subject him to cross-examination?  

The prospect of a Republican-controlled Senate voting to convict a Republican president is as unlikely as was the idea of a Democratic-controlled Senate voting to convict Democratic President Bill Clinton 21 years ago. But the question of calling witnesses is about the Senate's constitutional obligation to conduct a fair and thorough impeachment trial – not about convicting or exonerating the president. 

Still, in such a partisan environment, it's understandable that Republican senators troubled by the idea of refusing to hear witnesses may fear the political consequences of breaking ranks. Young, who learned about courage and integrity as a Marine long before he entered the Senate, could set an example for his colleagues by voting to open the process to witnesses. No doubt there would be those in Indiana who would condemn their senator for doing that. But as a member of the Senate, as a Hoosier and as a member of the Corps, Young is most of all honor-bound to do the right thing.
