Mr. Chrump, We Have Found Your Balls…

You Will Get Them Back When the Speaker Deems Appropriate

January 28, 2019

House Speaker, and keeper of Chrump’s balls, Nancy Pelosi told reporters, “The indictment of Roger Stone makes clear that there was a deliberate, coordinated attempt by top Trump campaign officials to influence the 2016 election and subvert the will of the American people.  In the face of 37 indictments, the President’s continued actions to undermine the Special Counsel investigation raise the questions: what does Putin have on the President, politically, personally or financially?”

She continued: “The Special Counsel investigation is working, and the House will continue to exercise our constitutional oversight responsibility and ensure that the Special Counsel investigation can continue free from interference from the White House.”

Nancy Pelosi might not be president (yet), but she currently owns one

On the other side of the aisle, in alternate reality land, Republican’ts are dragging their heels in order to avoid the inevitable.  Now that Democrats control all Congressional committees, and actual oversight is in the air, Republican’ts can no longer bury the myriad investigations they had previously stifled.  In accordance with Republican’t tradition, the party of world-class obstructionist Mitch McConnell and Russian agent Donald Chrump will do anything to stop the federal government from working – especially when it comes to investigating their criminal president. 

In order to continue their quest to thwart justice, Republican’ts in the House Intelligence Committee are purposefully, and with malice, not appointing anyone to the committee. House committees cannot begin their work unless all members have been appointed. 

The only person named to the committee so far is previous committee chair Devin Nunes – who was illegally colluding with the White House during his tenure as committee chair.  Until Republican’ts name other members, the committee is paralyzed. No meetings, no hearings, nothing. The House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has given no reason for their inaction. 

McCarthy, a quintessential doofus and master of word salads, is too busy trying to con Americans into believing that the Chrump Shutdown was not Chrump’s doing.  He must have been distracted by someone wielding a laser pen when Chrump was on television saying he would shut down the government and be proud to do it, and not blame Democrats for it.  McCarthy seems similarly unaware that Chrump is already talking about shutting the government down again if his wall is not built by February 15.  Which brings to mind the old saying, “If at first you don’t succeed, do the exact same thing that didn’t work the first time again, because it’s sure to work the next time.”
