Which Path Will He Take?

After over a year of investigation, and the possibility Muellor was snooping for dirt on Trump in 2013, the path Muellor will take is a toss-up, but the paths will not look good toward his legacy.

With the the numerous leaks over the investigation, if there was something behind the suspicion, logic says something would have leaked, and Muellor would be pushing for his slam-dunk. This hasn't happened, and with the Manafort trial showing the star witness is a thief, with nothing to lose by lying, that path toward impeaching Trump is closed. If Muellor was thinking this might lead somewhere, it may only lead to embarrassment, and make him appear as a fumbling idealist with an agenda.

Judicial Watch uncovered many things Muellor is supposed to be investigating. In fact, known criminal acts by important people demand accountability, yet Muellor is spending his resources chasing gossip. If he thinks this is not being noticed, he's wrong. The majority of people with knowledge of his investigation are wondering why he's ignoring the low hanging fruit.

Muellor can stop this investigation, present his information to the Attorney General, and leave his position with some dignity. It's not appearing this is the path he will take, and this path seems to be leading to exposing a deliberate effort by Muellor to railroad Trump. The further he travels down this path, the further he destroys his legacy, and he may find ignoring his duties has criminal consequences. Trying to destroy a legitimate President, with the help of others, is a seditious conspiracy.

Stacking the Deck

Most people don't realize, or care, that a federal judge is a public official that operates with very little oversight. That, and the removal of someone in this position is so onerous, the effort to do so is mostly not attempted. In the entire history of the United States, only 15 were ever impeached, and only 8 were convicted. 

After the recent obvious efforts to subvert the rules of law, it's apparent federal judges have assumed a power that was never envisioned. Instead of being the referee in litigation, they've now dismissed the law as written, ignored the intent, and interjected their personal opinion to promote their cause.

There is a benefit of appointing judges, and making it hard to remove them from their position. Theoretically, it allows an unbiased person to apply laws to justice, without allowing subversion of the laws due to politics. Otherwise, regardless of the current political party in power, laws will be followed, and criminals will be punished as the law dictates.  After some of the efforts of current judges, it's apparent theory crapped its pants.

The problem with judges is that it's assumed they're wise, and impartial enough to not allow personal opinions to conflict with their duty. While I don't think that's ever been the situation, I do feel there was a time honor dictated recusal, or stepping down from the bench. Since honor left many liberals years ago, such things don't happen, when it's most necessary.

The only solution may be term limits. The turn over would remove activist judges; but considering the ignorance of the supposedly well educated, the solution might bring a bigger problem.

I'd Tell Him to Pound Sand

A federal judge ordered DACA to be restored. He doesn't have that power. While he can stop an executive order with an injunction, he can't make a law. That's the job of Congress, and DACA was never voted on by Congress.

Trump needs to ignore the judge's ruling, since it violated law. In fact, following the order is allowing a judge to make law, which the Constitution doesn't allow.

Mid-Term on the Horizon

The mid-term election is only a few months away. The usual hype is cranking up, and the media is showing obvious efforts to obfuscate. The election is important, and the reprobates are out in numbers to slander.

If I was Trump, and Sessions was my Attorney General, I'd tell him to wait until September to start producing indictments. Call it a strong offense to discredit the party that used illegal methods to influence the last election.

We'll see, but the opportunity is here, and patience is necessary to insure flanking maneuvers cause the most casualties.

The Truth is Somewhere Out There

It's reported countries other than the United States pay less for healthcare. The lower prices are attributed to higher costs for goods, and services, which sounds like a Mr. Obvious statement, until you add how other governments aggressively negotiate prices.

This is interesting, when you think of how easy it is to have really low profit margin in other countries, which can be made up with an exorbitant profit margin in the United States. When you add how easy it is for large pharmaceutical, and medical device companies, to manipulate Congress, and regulators (remember the $400 dollar epi pens) we pay way too much, and other countries may pay too little.

The truth is somewhere out there, but the government, medical industry, and the media will never seek the answer. They're all milking the taxpayer, and if they can't get it outright with taxes, they'll slush it from profits they help produce.
