How Important is Mueller's Testimony?

Robert Mueller is going to testify this Wednesday regarding the 448 page Mueller Report.  You may be wondering why Mueller's testimony in front of Congress is so important considering he already published his 2-part report and said clearly if he were to be called to testify that the report speaks for itself and he would not add any additional information.

So why have him come and testify?

The reason is simple.  His testimony has the ability to cut through the lies and gaslighting that have occurred since the report became public.  The Trump Administration, to include Barr, the new Attorney General who came to an individual conclusion that the Mueller Report essentially exonerated the President, have been lying regularly to make Americans think that the report contains no solid evidence against the President.

Even though there are at least 10 documented cases of Obstruction within the Mueller Report that over 1000 former Justice Department Lawyers agree would put anyone other than the sitting president in prison for a very long time, Trump and his administration claims there to be no evidence what-so-ever. 

Putting Mueller in the hot seat will allow Democratic members of Congress the ability to have Mueller clarify many parts of the report that the Trump Administration have tried to discount since the report was published. 

Having Mueller back up his findings and state the importance of the evidence will add weight to those findings and stop the Administration from being able to simply lie about the report and act as if it exonerates the President, which it in no way does. 

Mueller made it clear that he had no power to indict a sitting President, but that he had gathered and documented more than enough evidence for Congress to do their Constitutional Duty, which they should be doing right now.

It is vitally important that the right questions be asked of Mueller, and that his answers be used to properly portray the overriding importance of the evidence that exists.

This is important.  Pay attention and be involved.

Happy Monday!

Trump and the DOJ Trying to Silence Mueller...

Mueller is set to sit in front of Congress on Wednesday this week and answer questions regarding the Mueller Investigation.  The DOJ, and organization that is supposed to look out for the best interests of America but has recently decided to become Trump's personal Law Firm, has sent correspondence to Mueller about what he can and cannot answer. For instance, you have the question of the 10 documented cases of obstruction in volume 2 of the report.  Mueller made it clear that he was bound by DOJ policy and could not indict a sitting president.  One very important question the Congressional Leadership will likely ask is, "If Donald Trump wasn't the sitting President, would you have indicted him based on the amount of evidence in the report?"  That question in every respect is fair.  You are asking the head of an investigation if they would have indicted someone had an arbitrary roadblock not been in place.  I say arbitrary roadblock because the policy is...

Truth Matters

If there is one thing I need to keep reminding myself in today's world of political discourse, it is that Truth Matters. At any point in time I can turn on (insert news agency here) News and what I see is vastly different depending upon the news agency I watch.  Why is that?  Every mainstream news organization is bias in some way based upon who runs or owns the news organization.  Don't get me wrong; there are great and impartial journalists and agencies out there, but we are talking in aggregate and not about individuals or one-off agencies. When an issue like immigration is at the forefront of political discourse you can tune into CNN, MSNBC, and FOX and likely get three completely different takes on immigration.  Each news organization tailors their message to speak to what they feel is their viewer base and potential viewer base. That in and of itself is understood by people who follow politics on a regular basis and dig through multiple news sources in ord...

Why does it have to be one way or the other?

I remember a time when I could sit and talk politics and religion with people and have good, productive debates.  The debates were not hateful or one sided, and only rational personal opinions and actual facts were used during the discussions.  They included each person stating their points and making their case, and then each side came to compromises that allowed for solutions that would be good for both parties in the debate.  How did we come to a time in our country's history where we are so vehemently divided on every issue that nothing beneficial to the majority of the American populous or the stability of the country itself can be accomplished?  I am going to state some facts in the next paragraphs.  They may be facts you don't agree with, but they are facts none-the-less.  Those of you on the Right who believe your party's platform has all of the answers to the issues and problems this country faces...you are wrong.  Those of ...
