Where were they 6 months before Obean left? The only people who can constitutional override the Prez is Congress per their authority under Article I, Section. Not that it would stop the imperial judiciary of assuming ever more powers.

Next lawsuits by ACLU: ADA requires "paralyzed friendly" access to parachute training for soldiers. This would follow the successful restructuring of BUD/S Training so the first wheelchair veteran can pass and become a SEAL.
[American Thinker] Republican voters are "tasting betrayal" at the hands of swamp-dwelling Republicans who are failing to act on the Trump agenda ‐ and their own promises.
In a scathing column at breitbart.com, Brent Bozell contends that the Republican party is "systematically committing suicide":
They were given everything.
In January of this year, they formally controlled both houses of Congress and the executive branch. Every single thing they'd ever promised was now possible. ...
Repeal Obamacare? Check. End illegal immigration? Check. Build the wall? Check.
Crush the Deep State? Done, by God, done!
There was not a damn thing the Democrats could do to stop them from draining the swamp.
Except the Republican leadership didn't mean it. With the exception of the Freedom Caucus in the House, and literally a handful in the Senate, the rank-and-file didn't either. Not one word of it.
In fairness to Republicans, it takes only a handful of McCains and Murkowskis in the Senate, siding with obstructionist Democrats, to betray the party's promises, but Republicans were elected to get results, not to find excuses.
Citing the Obamacare repeal fiasco and the false starts on tax reform, Bozell contends that the Republicans have accomplished "absolutely nothing" on either front:
There is no difference between Republicans and Democrats. Put them together. They are the swamp.
Bozell adds that, just as the Republicans were given the "power to enact the agenda" they have promised for eight years, they also "now own the federal government, in toto." Obamacare, spending, taxes, "all the graft, all the waste" ‐ it's all theirs.

Allow me to say that I have written down the names of the Republicans I will vote against. I know who they are and I want them gone.I want them out on the street looking for a new job.
I want them replaced. But, mostly, I want to see them unemployed. I think it can and will be done.

With a few notable exceptions, the attitudes and actions of the congressional membership (either party) likely reflect those of it's leadership. If the powerful chairman is having sushi, the rank and file will probably all be giving sushi a hard look.
Donald Trump is an outsider, an outsider who hires and sometimes fires outsiders. He tends to surround himself with accomplished senior military and civilian business leaders. This in itself is an anathema to the establishment order.
Fraternities of the like-minded; a dynamic that appears to evolve when the only one restricted by term-limits is the president.
Congress (again both parties) will likely confront President Trump at nearly every turn. He calls them the indolent, do-nothing swamp creatures that we all know them to be.
If all he accomplishes in eight years is the marginalization of the Clintons, a Supreme Court justice or two, the pardoning of Sheriff Joe Arpaio, and the down-sizing of big gov't, I'll be well pleased.

The Real fight is in the Primary Season and this will be a tough fight against the entrenched RINOs... If that fails, then Next Election. Electing the Other Party is a suicide gambit: you saw what they did with a majority.
[INSIDER.FOXNEWS] Protesters are planning a march starting from Charlottesville, Virginia to Washington, D.C. to fight white supremacy and demand that President Trump be removed from office.
"The March to Confront White Supremacy" will spend ten days starting on Monday, August 28 travelling to the nation's capitol and then occupy it with non-violent demonstrations.
"For years, white supremacist violence, rhetoric, and policies have escalated and intensified ‐ exploding during Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... ’s run for president and reaching a boiling point in Charlottesville," the website for the event reads.
White nationalist rallies in Charlottesville, Virginia turned violent earlier this month, leaving one of the counter-protesters dead. President Trump was heavily criticized for his response, which many viewed as not going far enough against the white supremacists.

I wonder how much of this crap would be happening if George Soros (spit) suddenly found himself in a Hungarian prison and all of his assets had been seized.

So they have announced themselves to be treasonist para-military thugs.
There is nothing in the Constitution or law that allows for a President to be "removed" from office other than by the impeachment process. There is no charge that is possible at this time. So.......
These fascist thugs want to start a real revolution. It's getting close to the time when the real supporters of the US give them what they seem to desire.

Actually treat them like Hunter S. Thompson's on a march. Feed their paranoia... start with tampered water bottles..
Let them kill "bats" for awhile in the open spaces..
[Iran Press TV] The OSCE's media freedom watchdog on Monday called on US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... to tone down his virulent attacks on the press, warning that they "degrade" the media's key role in a democracy and open journalists to abuse.
Since taking office in January, the 71-year-old leader has made a habit of publicly bashing mainstream media outlets like The New York Times ...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... , which he regularly denounces as "fake news" on his Twitter account.
"I urge the United States administration to refrain from delivering such attacks on the media," Harlem Desir, the media freedom representative of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, said in a letter to the White House.
"The US president's statements are deeply problematic in that they degrade the essential role the media plays in every democratic society, holding governments to account and offering a platform for a diversity of voices," read the letter addressed to US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

Because nobody knows more about the media's role in democracy than the Iranians.

The Media was kiss ass and still is a big smooch butt for the Democrats. I hope Trump keeps the pressure on until the Media realize the American people spit on their "news".
The seven o'clock News is Urp. The Media serves garbage.
I don't want to hear some opinion from a slick in a suit. I want honest and objective reporting of facts. Opinion is NOT news. Groupthink is not news. Propaganda is not News.
PC sucks and I don't like puffs and cowards....journalists. Useless people. Mouths in a shirt.

I had a Journo major fraternity brother/housemate that I still love (named my oldest son after him). I asked him why he was a J Major? : "It was the chicks, an easy major and he cakewalked thru it."
Never did it as a career. Successfully worked in marketing for So Cal Developers

[IsraelTimes] Over 100 hooded protesters bust through police lines at free speech gathering, attack leader of a politically conservative group
Black-clad anarchists on Sunday stormed into what had been a largely peaceful Berkeley protest against hate and attacked at least five people, including the leader of a politically conservative group who canceled an event a day earlier in the Socialist paradise of San Francisco ...where God struck dead Anton LaVey, home of the Sydney Ducks, ruled by Vigilance Committee from 1859 through 1867, reliably and volubly Democrat since 1964... amid fears of violence.

Hopefully the FBI has undercover folks with Antifa by now. Hopefully they have other undercover folks taking photos and arresting Antifa that try to attack them for taking photos (thus providing cover for the actual FBI in the Antifa midst).

One of the perps arrested was form my hometown. I had been in contact with him since early July and he was pretty explicit on what he wanted to do. Looks like he went though with it and is now sitting in a Santa Rita jail awaiting arraignment. I'm heading out now to have a talk with the manager of the restaurant that he works at as I'm sure his behavior goes against BJ's policies regarding personal conduct.

Greenwood said "the potential use of force became very problematic" given the thousands of peaceful protesters in the park. Once anarchists arrived, it was clear there would not be dueling protests between left and right so he ordered his officers out of the park and allowed the anarchists to march in.
In other words they did not 'break thru' but where allowed in.

However, the violence in Charlottesville led San Francisco area police and civil leaders to rethink their response to protests.
Issuing spiked clubs to unarmed Antifa thugs? Having the Police put on black hoods and reinforcing the thugs? This does not look good...
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
