Conspiracy To Commit Treason Is An Impeachable Offence
[There's One Born Every Minute]
Opinion
Where Conspiracy Is Treason
The story breaks today in 'The New York Times' that Donald Trump Junior met with a Russian 'go-between' who offered him damaging information about Hillary Clinton. Attending a meeting with the intent of intelligence gain from a hostile superpower to undermine democratic credibility in the U.S. electoral process, is, in my opinion, conspiracy with intent to commit treason.
On the basis of what you know about my lack of enthusiasm for Trump you would think I would be jumping for joy. Quite the opposite.
All of what is being revealed day by day about collusion and conspiracy with Russia's intelligence services and their outlets, all sadly confirm what I cautioned about last year – that Trump would betray the ordinary folk on the left and the right – leaving all brothers and sisters at war with each other – while he and his billionaire oligarch friends worldwide milk the country – the United States – and the world - dry of its resources.
I do not even blame Russia - since it is in their traditional (acknowledged) national interests to undermine the United States - but Trump and his team had the choice to refuse to 'collaborate' or seek the intervention of a foreign rival superpower.
They chose not to work with the IC in the United States but instead placed their faith and trust in the Kremlin and its intelligence community worldwide.
Everything I read suggest the impeachable offence of conspiracy to commit treason – but nowhere will you (as yet) read this as the intended path of the Special Counsel – since he himself has only begun to assemble the case.
This is how it just looks to myself folks.
Deja Vu
I am really sad for those people who 'believed' in Trump as someone who would (as they genuinely thought) 'drain the swamp' [and 'Lordie' knows it needs draining(!) ]
It turned out, however, that Trump IS the swamp [!]
There has never been a more corrupt superpower – as the pre-eminent military power on the planet and based on the cult of personality - since Caligula and Nero in ancient Rome.
Preparing The Way
I am now convinced that America does need a Republican or Democrat leader – someone who will restore pride in nationalism, in patriotism, in equality and justice for all and, most important, really make America the technological powerhouse of the world again.
Utopian National Socialism As A Global Philosophy?
[National Socialism Justice and Free Enterprise – As A Philosophy For Good Not Evil]
The one good thing, when 'the swamp' is finally 'drained' is that America will, after evidence of all the (disgusting?) self-indulgence of Trump, his family, his scyophants and privileged elites, is fully revealed for Americans and the world to see, that most Americans will then be ready to accept a new political formulation - a vision of one people, one country and one leader -who will put America back to work – with universal education health care and the dignity of a single living wage for all as a right not as a privilege.
To say that a single parent or nuclear family should have the dignity of one job with a dignified liveable wage is, at present, heresy, in all societies throughout the world.
To change this requires a change in social policy combined with a national agenda which is inclusive rather than exclusive – hence my terminology 'national socialism'.
When Nationalism and Social Policy Can Be Forces For Good Not Evil
This, and not political extremism, exclusion nor racism, is the true basis of national socialism with equality and justice for all.
So perhaps the coming into Office of a character such as Mr Trump, the way he achieved Office and how he continues to divide through anger, suspicion and division, may not be a bad thing to forge a complete break with everything he and his elite minority represent.
I can really now see that the time is nearing when most Americans will be more amenable to a new form of nationalism after they see, with evidence, the full extent of the pillaging of America by the billionaire oligarch class and their ultra-wealthy supporters at the expense of the weak and those most in need of a 'hand up' rather than a 'helping hand'.
As The Excluded and Embittered Left and Right Battle Each Other For The Crumbs Falling From The Table..........
In the meanwhile my hope is that brothers and sisters do not fall into the trap of in-fighting or directing their rage and frustration against those traditional 'scapegoats' - as these oligarchs attempt to 'pit' those with genuine grievances, those unemployed, those with high hope and few prospects, those impoverished and those working two and three jobs just to stay alive and feed a family - against each other.
They know that their only salvation is keeping the masses at war with each other – misdirecting their energies whilst they pillage and loot the world for themselves and their global business elites.
If you do that brothers and sisters, you will play further into the hands of those whose only objective is 'divide and rule'.
The Road Ahead
Now I do not know whether this new 'leader' will emerge from the Republican or Democratic parties nor how long it will take after Trump's 'America incorporated' exits, but I do believe that, after all the facts about how the American electorate were 'played' become known, most Americans will then be more receptive to 'genuine' political (and former military) candidates – with a different approach as to how to make America, as an economic and technological supergiant, great, once again.
''There's One Born Every Minute''
As to those who will still continue to 'believe in' Mr Trump, even after all the facts of treason and conspiracy to commit treason against the United States of America and its people are revealed; well, as they say, 'there's one born every minute.'
