George Conway Calls For Trump To Be Impeached…Again

George Conway, the Republican lawyer who is married to White House Senior Advisor Kellyanne Conway, penned a new oped for the The Washington Post this week in which he called for Donald Trump to be impeached again.

Conway wrote that it almost seemed as if Trump was “competing” for the “ignominious fate” of being impeached for a second time. He argued that Trump’s latest impeachable offense stems from removing Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman and Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland from office. Both of them had testified against Trump in the House’s impeachment inquiry.

As Trump removed Vindman from the National Security Council (NSC), he tweeted that he was “insubordinate” and “reported contents of my “perfect” calls incorrectly.”

Fake News @CNN & MSDNC keep talking about “Lt. Col.” Vindman as though I should think only how wonderful he was. Actually, I don’t know him, never spoke to him, or met him (I don’t believe!) but, he was very insubordinate, reported contents of my “perfect” calls incorrectly, &…

Conway sited this tweet as proof that Trump removed Vindman from the NSC as revenge for his testimony. He wrote that if Trump was impeached in the House for obstruction, “there should be no doubt that punishing witnesses for complying with subpoenas and giving truthful testimony about presidential misconduct should make for a high crime or misdemeanor as well.”

Conway then shifted to showing how much he personally hates Trump by claiming that the president will always put himself ahead of the American people, adding that his “narcissism won’t allow him to put anyone else’s interests above his own, including the nation’s.”

“And he will do it again,” he wrote. “He did do it again by firing the Vindmans and Sondland. He’s telling us he will do it again. And no one can seriously doubt it, even those who voted to acquit.”

Conway’s wife Kellyanne was the first woman in American history to lead a presidential candidate to victory when Trump won in 2016. It’s sad that in the years since then, her husband has appeared to revel in humiliating her every chance he gets by publicly attacking her boss in the worst ways possible.

If a male conservative was doing this to his female liberal wife, the media would be up in arms over it. Since Conway is just embarrassing his Trump-supporting wife, however, the leftist media has no sympathy for Kellyanne.

The hypocrisy of liberals never ceases to amaze.

Report: Trump Slashing Obama Holdovers From NSC, ‘Anonymous’ NYT Op-Ed Author

Posted on February 10, 2020 by Rusty Weiss

In what amounts to a long-overdue in-house cleaning, administration officials have confirmed that 70 positions at the National Security Council (NSC) held by Obama-era staffers are being cut.

Last week, U.S. Army Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman and his twin brother were sent packing after the former starred as a Democrat witness in the impeachment hoax.

Liberals were apoplectic over the notion that the President would dare reassign an individual who tried to sabotage American foreign policy through false claims of abuse of power surrounding a mundane phone call with the President of Ukraine.

They’ll be even further disappointed to hear he’s slashing more deep-staters.

“Officials confirmed that Trump and national security adviser Robert O’Brien have cut 70 positions inherited from former President Barack Obama,” the Washington Examiner reports.

Thank you @realDonaldTrump.

We need to pull the plug on the swamp and let it drain. https://t.co/EHyM2pfGIP

‘Anonymous’ Resistance Leader Set to Get the Boot

Additionally, U.S. attorney and Trump lawyer, Joe diGenova told WMAL’s ‘Mornings on the Mall’ that the individual associated with a famed anonymous op-ed in the New York Times in 2018 was also set to be eliminated.

The cowardly ‘anonymous’ author, who claims they are a “senior official in the Trump administration,” suggested they were “part of the resistance” against the President since he took office.

The author followed up with what they claimed was a ‘tell-all book’ where they again declined to reveal their identity, though they promised readers they would hear from them “in my own name” before the 2020 election.

If diGenova is right and the author is fired, that prediction may indeed come true.

“The White House has identified and will soon part ways with the ‘anonymous’ official behind a recently released book and a ‘resistance’ focused editorial published in the New York Times,” the Daily Caller reports.

Cowards

First Lady Melania Trump slammed the author saying, “you are not protecting this country, you are sabotaging it with your cowardly actions.”

White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham also called the anonymous official a “coward.”

“Real authors reach out to their subjects to get things fact-checked – but this person is in hiding, making that very basic part of being a real writer impossible,” Grisham said.

Such harsh adjectives equally apply to Vindman and the other rogue NSC staffers.

Cleaning house of Obama holdovers is long, long overdue and anyone working in the administration who is not wholeheartedly supporting the President’s agenda needs to be removed.

Game over for the resistance.

White House Issues Threat to Bolton Over New Book

Posted on January 29, 2020 by Jack Hadfield

Donald Trump’s White House has issued a threat to former National Security Advisor John Bolton, ordering him to remove “classified information” from his new book.

“Significant Amounts of Classified Information”

On Sunday, the New York Times reported that Bolton’s new book will help the Democrats push their case for the impeachment of President Trump. In the book, Bolton claims that the President did, in fact, delay military aid to Ukraine to pressure them into investigating former Vice President Joe Biden, and his son, Hunter Biden, and their business dealings in the country.

In an email to Bolton’s lawyer, the National Security Council said that from their preliminary review, the manuscript of Bolton’s new book “appears to contain significant amounts of classified information,” with some of this classified information,” being “at the TOP SECRET level.” This is defined by Executive Order 13526 as information that could be “reasonably expected to cause exceptionally grave harm to the national security” of the U.S. if it was released without authorization.

The letter goes onto note that Bolton had signed numerous nondisclosure agreements (NDAs) to be able to gain access to classified information.

“Under federal law and the nondisclosure agreements your client signed… the manuscript may not be published or otherwise disclosed without this classifed information,” the letter argues.

The manuscript is being kept under review, in order to “identify the classified information within” and ensure the “publication does not harm the national security of the United States.” It concludes by saying that the NSC will do their best to ensure Bolton’s “ability to tell his story in a manner that protects U.S. national security.”

“Nasty & Untrue Book”

The President also attacked Bolton on Twitter, saying that he was fired because, “frankly, if I listened to him, we would be in World War Six by now,” and wondering why he would write such a “nasty & untrue” book directly after he had been fired.

For a guy who couldn’t get approved for the Ambassador to the U.N. years ago, couldn’t get approved for anything since, “begged” me for a non Senate approved job, which I gave him despite many saying “Don’t do it, sir,” takes the job, mistakenly says “Libyan Model” on T.V., and..

….many more mistakes of judgement, gets fired because frankly, if I listened to him, we would be in World War Six by now, and goes out and IMMEDIATELY writes a nasty & untrue book. All Classified National Security. Who would do this?

The President is spot on. John Bolton is simply mad that he couldn’t start more foreign wars overseas and spill the blood of thousands of American soldiers to make a nice profit for his buddies. This book is nothing more than an expanded temper tantrum, designed to annoy the President and others who hate endless foreign conflict.

If Bolton is found to have broken his NDAs by writing this book, he should be punished to the full extent of the law.
