Night Of The Long Knives

Part I

''Trump Order's Firing of Mueller''

[It Has Not Happened Yet But At the Aspen Security Forum It Was A Topic For Keen Discussion]


''I Was Only Following Orders''
I want to cut through the red tape which pork-barrelled lawyers and mainstream media 'experts' will not give you – until it's too late for you to do anything but accept as 'fait accompli' whatever they want you to endorse.

Should President Trump order anyone to fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller they must all refuse or risk future criminal prosecution for treason.
The reason for this is quite straightforward.
Nobody, no Officer or Civil Servant, has to obey any order which is unconstitutional and which action threatens the security of the United States.

It amazes me that Trump has not yet been approached and informed that it is imperative for him to either resign or to be impeached in the interests of the constitution.
The issuance of legal directives without prior consultation with the Armed Forces on any matter and in violation of the constitutional processes and accepted firewalls to ensure separation of the legislative branches and the military, lack of accountability, threats to Congress - both Senators and Representatives - are more than enough for automatic impeachment.

What then, are they all waiting for?

Well they are all waiting for Robert Mueller to finish his investigations and present his final Report on Russian hacking of the 2016 American Presidential Election and whether there was a conspiracy involving Presidential Candidate Trump and others to knowingly engage with a hostile enemy power, already engaged in cyberwarfare and espionage against the United States, which is why President Trump never wants this investigation to continue with its broad sweeping powers and criteria to follow the leads - wherever they arrive at - in this enquiry.
Mueller is 'high-profile' and it is only for this reason is Trump moving carefully.
But Mueller is an 'old boy' and Trump takes 'proactive' measures against him (or anyone close to him) at his peril – which is why he (Trump) is bringing in 'outsiders'.

QED
I do not want to get into the predictive or 'crystal ball' gaze – but somebody has to shut Trump down on Twitter. There is a difference between 'rocking the boat' and 'capsizing it'. The problem with kicking Trump out of the GOP is that he can (financially) afford to run next time as an independent Presidential Candidate. The plus however would be even if he is re-elected President as an independent Candidate (highly unlikely without Russian input – but not completely to be ruled out) without a Party, nobody need heed any of his Tweets since he only represents himself and to 'rule by executive decree' would be unconstitutional and grounds for unanimous, by both Democrats and Republicans, impeachment, and removal from Office.
Either the Republicans act quickly to do something or those in his sights are likely to be facing challenges in their Districts by 'alternative' Republican (Trump) candidates – and if such are elected then all hell really will break loose.

A process of Gerrymandering is already being worked on to both identify voters and to re-zone important districts  This task force directly created by Trump to identify 'voter fraud' has as it's hidden agenda the disenfranchisement of millions of individual voters (mainly Democratic.) As many as 4-6 million could be  affected – more than enough to unlawfully 'flip' the next election.
What Republicans fail to appreciate that he will go after each of them just like he is going after their Democratic rivals.
How do I know this? Because I have read history – and as I told you before, it always repeats itself – in a different guise maybe – but always repeating.
Politically 'exterminating' between four and six million American voters from their electoral ballot rights and turning over power and control to an elite conspiracist group is more than the equivalent of their physical extermination in concentration camps. Indeed it's better – as they remain to be utilized for industry production and service work and consumer (consumption)  'indenture' to Mammon - with no political representation and few rights.

Deja Vu
These demagogues with their obsessive (mentally ill?) desire for military power, for political and financial control, are all nothing new.
That 90% of those who could stand up against a tyrant stay silent while they (individuals like Trump) take control - fearing for their own and their family's future and status – are also nothing new.  As I mentioned earlier, it's called the 'Bystander Effect'.


Unknown Territory
When People the President Of The United States Appoints To Senior Positions And Who,With His Blessings, Make Statements About Civil Servants and Public Representatives With The Threat Of Physical Violence, The Rules Of the Game Have Significantly Changed For Everyone

If I am to be candid, in my opinion, there are a number of specific Congressmen, Congresswomen and Representatives who need to ensure more pre-flight checks and maintenance records are being regularly updated, actioned and more closely monitored for their private journeys to ensure that they continue to travel in safety around the country whilst carrying out their responsibilities as public representatives.
(The outspoken Senator Lindsey Graham is just one such key person who should take particular care.)

Likewise when someone close to the President talks about using the FBI (with the Police) to arrest serving (or previous) government Officers, the rules of the game have automatically changed and a Pandora's box has been opened.
It is only a matter of time before other organs of the State will be called upon to intimidate Congress and Departments of the government.

If an Attorney General is colluding in this process to assist his boss identify past or present 'leakers' of public interest material which, through leaking that material, assisted to protect the United States and it's Allies from a hostile foreign power or made available data which the public have a right to know about, then the Attorney General himself is failing to protect the constitution from 'attack' by 'hostile' foreign powers.
If the intention coming from the White House is to order their arrest, we are one step away from 'America' becoming 'North Korea' in all but name.

[In actual fact Trump wants Jeff Sessions to act unlawfully – then step back – and let the wolves devour him. But Sessions is an 'old pro' and will not fall into this 'cage' - and Trump is going to have to have the courage (or find the personal courage) to fire him – if he dares.


After the Storm
If unchecked, after the catastrophe of the Trump dysfunctional administration, will America still be at the center of world power and influence – especially in areas of democracy, human rights, freedom of the press and of the individual, it is hard to tell.

Should this circus be allowed to roll on, will other countries seize the unique opportunity to attract 'professional refugees' fleeing tyranny in the United States – to develop at some future time their own lands as significant and influential players on the global stage? Hard to tell at this stage.
What I can say from observation and 'chat' is that the 'exodus' of those most talented - especially those of color from tSouth East Asia and India - has already begun.
There would be no 'Dow-Jones Index' no 'Google' and other inventions too numerous to mention, without their presence.
These are professional individuals whether from Asia, Africa, Mexico and South America who are significantly contributing to keeping America at the forefront of technology and science in today's world and are adding 'value' to Europe and the United States as regional powers.
These individuals are taking (or removing as an option the availability of) their skills and talents to elsewhere.

Why The Non-Mainstream Internet Press With No Electronic Frontiers Is Also In Peril
What you read above your mainstream media is too frightened to tell you.
Why? Because it is owned lock stock and barrel by a very small vested interest group of oligarchs and multinational corporations who, like the industrialists in Germany and in the United States before World War II, saw Hitler not as a problem, but as a new business opportunity.
