IMPEACHMENT: Danger indeed

| February 5, 2020 12:00 AM

“Danger, Danger, Danger” was a repeated volley by attorney Jay Sekulow at President Trump’s impeachment trial. This series of three reminds of three shots in the air by someone needing rescue — similar to the SOS (“Save Our Souls”) for a crisis.

Behind the Senate well that the lawyers spoke from, you have a background of highly broken purplish limestone (?), with white calcite veins going in all directions. How ironic!

All the many tens of millions of dollars spent on the Mueller Report and the impeachment could have gone for more javelin antitank missiles for Ukraine, against attacking Russian tanks?

Deep policy differences between Democrats and Republicans, could have been resolved by much less wasteful means for the American taxpayers?

But alas, endless discussions on quid-pro-quo, and well documented Ukraine/Biden family corruptions; and part of the Ukraine aid being temporarily paused!

Hypothetical: Psychologists at the University of California, San Francisco, did psychoanalyze (look for motives) on Trump, Schiff and Pelosi. Trump is 49% for the taxpayers and 51% for getting re-elected. Schiff and Pelosi are 51% for the taxpayers.

Now the homeless and poor objected to this. They witnessed huge sanitary issues in both Schiff’s and Pelosi’s California districts. The two lack public concern?

Bernie Sanders posits, with his open borders, there will be universal health vaccines to guard against pandemics.

GOD steps in: “Let both grow together until the harvest. Then I will tell the harvesters to sort out the weeds, tie them into bundles, and burn them, and to put the wheat in the barn.” Matthew 13:30.
