Is our nation dying?

This blogger says it all:   "Nunes, the Republicans, and Fox Republican Media are doing all they can to undercut Mueller, even trying to find justification to bring charges against agents investigating Trump and against folks on Mueller's team, including Mueller. The nation was founded on three "separate but equal" branches of government, the Executive, the Legislative, and the Judicial. Republicans are so determined to not lose their president that they are willing to crush the legitimacy of the Judiciary branch to do it. If they do, this will be unprecedented, and a grave assault on our democratic form of government."

My Comment: Two agents on the Mueller team back in July communicated in a form they should not have. Mueller instantly fired them. But that is not enough for Republicans. They are blowing this up like a hot air balloon waiting for it to explode. Some Republicans not connected with the Intelligence Committee are taking or should I say stealing classified documents taking them into another room and combing them for bias against Republicans and Trump. Who allows one wily nily to take classified documents they should not have and walk into another room to examine them? What gives them the right to do that in a NON bipartisan fashion? Answer: They have no right. Fox News and Company are disparaging in hysterical form, the pinnacles on which this nation stands keeping the blaze of discord bright.

Another group of Republicans will be investigating Hillary's connection with uranium they say she authorized to be sent to Iran. This has been disproven.

Republicans with no Democratic votes passed a tax document full of errors which must be corrected. Healthcare has been demolished in the most secretive way and millions will lose coverage. Some even many will die. Senator Mark Warner ranking member of the Senate investigating Russian hacking of the 2016 election gave a riveting speech in the Senate warning Republicans and Trump not to touch Mueller, and impede the process of his investigation. He warned Trump not to fire Mueller, he said, "before it's too late." My question is before it's too late for what?

It feels like the Republic is on a civil war precipice of anarchy. Trump, empowered from his tax win, fires the flames of tweeting discord which could translate into electoral violence if Trump fires Mueller and/or Rosenstein both Republicans. When Senator Warner said resist the forces trying to fire Mueller "before it's too late" the most important question before us is: Does "before its too late" mean our nation is dying?


Democratic Presidential Convention--On to November

  I watched the Democratic convention last evening until my body's demand for sleep overtook me around midnight.  Having followed thin...
