Fake Libertarian Justin Amash Steps Down from the Freedom Caucus
The Great Clarifying continues:
Colleague Mike Emanuel confirms GOP MI Rep Justin Amash has stepped down from the House Freedom Caucus.
— Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) June 11, 2019
Amash, speaking at a Freedom Caucus board meeting, insisted his departure was voluntary. Amash said he did not want to continue to be a “further distraction” for the caucus, which is chaired by North Carolina GOP Rep. Mark Meadows. Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, a member of the Freedom Caucus, told Fox News’ “Ingraham Angle” Monday evening that Meadows and Amash mutually came to the decision after several conversations. Jordan said the Republican members of the group still consider Amash a friend, but that their disagreements were “sharp” and significant.The reason I call him a "fake libertarian" is that this alleged "libertarian" has no problems whatsoever with the unprecedented use of spies and surveillance against a rival presidential campaign, all based on rumors and frankly made-up claims pushed by the Hillary Clinton campaign, gathered by a foreign spy from (supposedly) Kremlin -- RUSSIAN!-- contacts. We've never seen such an invasive, aggressive, anti-democratic, illegal effort to derail a presidential campaign and rig a presidential election before, all based on a "dossier" so flimsy and absurd that it's possible that the perpetrators may face jail time. And yet the fake "libertarians" and "conservatarians" approve of these police state gestapo tactics while simultaneously clutching their pearls that this Trump character might be some kind of... authoritarian. It's all about immigration. They are open borders zealots but do not want to publicly admit this, so they confabulate reasons unrelated to immigration to claim that Trump is unfit for office. They're liars and grifters and should be driven out of public office and frankly public life. If you cannot admit your actual political position -- what the fuck are you doing in politics? Who needs you to pollute the public debate with diversions and deceit?

I'm at the point that their attacks against the President are trivial in comparison to the outright treason at all levels in this invasion at our borders.
The US is a Failed State. We don't have control over any of our borders, no control over budget, failed education system, and a corrupt and dysfunctional court system.
The Congo has thousands of Ebola cases going on, and now we discover that thousands of Congoese people are flooding in to the US.
And the government, at every level, is doing all that they can do to amp up this invasion jeopardizing everything.
When the ebola breaks out here, who is going to care who sexted who in a botched Russia collusion narrrative?

Their long-term plans involve bringing in a mob for them to rule over.

Libertarians seem to divide into three groups.
1) The "leave me the fuck alone" types.
2) The ones who have a lot of business interests that benefit from open borders/free importation
3) The ones who are drawn to it because it strokes their egos to believe in a slightly out of mainstream political philosophy.

If you cannot admit your actual political position -- what the fuck are you doing in politics? Who needs you to pollute the public debate with diversions and deceit?
-------
This goes for about 90% of "Right-wing" media as well.
I know a lot of people say "why are we talking about Kristol/Goldberg/French/fill-in-the-cuck-blank, they're yesterday's news."
But I don't think it's enough for them to lose relevance. They need to be humiliated and completely unemployable, even by the shameless network of grift that is the Conservative Media Ecosystem™.
If that whole edifice and its inhabitants end up lying in a smoking ruin, despised by all, then maybe the next generation of would-be charlatans will think long and hard before trying to grift our side again, and stay on the Left where they belong.

Posted by: josephistan at June 11, 2019 12:59 PM (7HtZB)
It's on the list.
I have an Acura RDX and it's...ok. But it leaves me a little cold. The electronics UI is terrible, all but the map...which is excellent...it has good power though.
I was really hoping to find a Honda or Toyota that was V6 and AWD but that seems to have gone away a few years ago. Now it's all V4 turbo crap.

Rush was saying what is driving the Left and the Never Trumpers (birm) insane is that Trump made campaign promises and now is doing his best to keep them and that's just not done! Yup.

They're liars and grifters and should be driven out of public office and frankly public life. If you cannot admit your actual political position -- what the fuck are you doing in politics? Who needs you to pollute the public debate with diversions and deceit?
This is the poison that the Dims in particular have brought to American politics.
For instance, on several issues Obama, in theory, ran to the Right of McCain, just as other Dims have done. Then once elected did whatever the fuck he wanted.
Not the the Republicans are innocent either what with Failure Theater playing every year after Reagan's two terms ended.
It's impossible to have informed voters and a legitimate gov't if the candidates constantly lie about their beliefs on fundamental issues.
It makes even a legitimately won election and the gov't as a whole illegitimate-
if the entire process is a scam.
This is what makes Trump so popular and so refreshing-
He says what he means and then actually tried to fulfill his promises to the voters.
The Republican Party better learn from Trump and better learn fast.

It is not just that you can't be President. You can be framed and sent to PMITA prison just cuz some Weissman-like asshole wants to do it.
If Trump cannot protect his rights, you damn sure won't be able to protect yours.

It's all about immigration. They are open borders zealots but do not want to publicly admit this, so they confabulate reasons unrelated to immigration to claim that Trump is unfit for office."
I would modify that to say that, in Amash's case, it's only *mostly* about Immigration. Amash comes from Palestinian roots, so naturally he hates Jews and he hates Trump for siding with Israel so strongly, too.
Never trust an Arab.

Mostly off topic but rather important:
The last day or two, local papers throughout the US have started rolling out articles doxxing Trump donors. They're calling out people by name, listing their employers and businesses, and linking to their social media accounts.
They're excusing this by promising to run articles about Dem donations at a later date.

Justin Amash has been a never Trumper from day one. He came out with the fake outrage when the audio tape of Trump talking about women letting themselves be grabbed, and he's been looking for anything to support getting Trump out of office.
Why? Because his family and himself are knee deep in working with the Chinese in business. And Trump is causing a strain in that.
He's a "conservative" when it doesn't affect him. No different than liberal Democrats whose policies don't affect them at all.

Winners go into enemy territory and take it.
You lose what you don't try for.
---------
Trump said during 2015/2016 that he had a 50-state strategy. This didn't *completely* pan out (he didn't campaign in CA at all, for instance), but by and large he and his relatively small team stuck to that pretty relentlessly, as evidenced by his success behind the vaunted "Blue Wall."
The entire GOP established and all the other candidates ridiculed this. Really, it was peals of laughter from Trump's "right."
At the time, I was doing the math and saying "you people are right there's no path to 270, as long as our candidate doesn't try taking away traditionally Dem states." It was really the only choice. Hit 'em where they live.
But of course, that was the point, wasn't it?

The wife had one too, hers was an automatic. It seemed pretty good, and she has a heavy foot. I went with the manual because I'm a gear head and don't trust the slush boxes behind any 4 cylinder. Its a really great driving car though, I never felt it was under powered. The gear ratio's on the trans are really good, so you can always find the right gear, so uphill was a never a problem. I go from a big block 1969 road runner to that mazda and it never feels week to me.

The thing the starkly illustrates the deprivations visited upon Trump is to view the actions of the LE and IC against him and compare them to how they handled Diane Feinsteins 20 year spy problem.
The differences couldn't be more clear.

The Tea Party was doomed when the cutesy mass-produced "Taxed Enough Already" signs showed up, along with the buses. That's when it began falling apart, it never was about taxes, it was about spending and government overreach.
The GOP-e sponsored astroturfers took over and wore it like a skinwalker wearing its victims, and all of us who'd been there from the start suddenly couldn't get anyone to listen.
They found some scoundrels to make vaguely Constitutional noises and we fell for it.

It is beyond time to purge the lolbertarians. They have zero problem with open borders and the destruction of civic society as long as wages are suppressed (so corrupt donors can fund stupid vanity projects like the Reason Foundation), and they're perfectly happy to see wide swaths of America laid waste so long as they get access to marijuana and cheap Chinese butt plugs.

It's all about immigration. They are open borders zealots but do not want to publicly admit this, so they confabulate reasons unrelated to immigration to claim that Trump is unfit for office.

But I do wonder -- Has there ever been a President so ultimately faithful to his campaign rhetoric overall?

I recall that happening in AZ when Antifa organized a bunch of illegals to march down the highway carrying Mexican flags.

I remember a comment made by grammie winger, I think
it was around the time of the inauguration, when people were just sort
of generally wondering if Trump really would try to follow through on
the things he said he would do.
And grammie said her mother said to her, I think Trump will do
exactly what he promised, to the extent possible, because he is the type
of person who does not ever want to look bad.
And I thought, you know what, great-grammie winger has got it goin' ON.

Posted by: GnuBreed at June 11, 2019 01:16 PM (Z4rgH)
Trump is transactional, not ideological.
He campaigned that if you elect me, I will do X, Y, and Z.
He was elected so now he is trying to do X. Y, and Z.
It's stunning.
Add me to the I like Cruz, I really do, but whatever that It factor is that would vault him to the next level, he doesn't have it. It's not just a personality thing or that he comes across as thinking he's the smartest person in the room because he probably is. He just doesn't seem to have, well, empathy, I guess.
Which is probably why I like him so much.

Full Disclosure: Recovering former-Libertarian (note the capitalization)
The holy trifecta for pretty much any/all libertarians (except for a small, tiny number of true classical liberals) are the 3 P's - P0rn, Pot, and Prostitution. One of which is pretty much legal pretty much everywhere, one of which will be legal in more than half the states in 3-5 years tops, and the other is de-facto legal because, seriously, aside from occasional busts for street work and the necessary cracking of trafficking rings, who ever really goes to jail for prostitution?
They're fighting not yesterday's battles, but last century's battles.
And anyone who calls themselves a "libertarian" who is totes A-OK with the spy-v-spy tactics used against Trump/Pence 2016 is a leftist, period, full-stop.

The odd thing about Cruz is, I think his principles, such as he has them, are conservative, but he is mostly "pro-Cruz" where the rubber meets the road. IOW, a snake in the grass, who'd bite anyone to get ahead.
Which I actually like about him, but I think a lot of voters can sense that, and don't like it.

It's all about immigration. They are open borders zealots but do not want to publicly admit this, so they confabulate reasons unrelated to immigration to claim that Trump is unfit for office.
That's really the only thing I can figure. No libertarian alive should support the use of the full force of the government to investigate someone TO FIND A CRIME. This is a libertarian nightmare of abuse of power, it should have all of them running to the ramparts with a broken bottle in their hand. But how many libertarians out there are really about liberty at all?

173 I think what drives the Left insane about Trump is he is the same as they are but coming from the direction of the Right. Trump is bold, which is not always a good trait. It's what was needed though and Trump was the chosen one.

You're right--and I think that after a few laughs at his expense when he threw his hat into the ring--the Democrats realized this about Trump BEFORE even most of his supporters did.
And certainly before the GOPe did.

The odd thing about Cruz is, I think his principles, such as he has them, are conservative, but he is mostly "pro-Cruz" where the rubber meets the road. IOW, a snake in the grass, who'd bite anyone to get ahead.
Which I actually like about him, but I think a lot of voters can sense that, and don't like it.

Add me to the I like Cruz, I really do, but whatever that It factor is that would vault him to the next level, he doesn't have it. It's not just a personality thing or that he comes across as thinking he's the smartest person in the room because he probably is. He just doesn't seem to have, well, empathy, I guess.
Which is probably why I like him so much.
Posted by: alexthechick - Darth Sugartits at June 11, 2019 01:22 PM (mf5HN)
Cruz is by far the best trial lawyer in either the Senate or the House, he's got plenty of experience, and if you wanted to hire someone to fight your case, you couldn't do better than him.
But to be a real good Trial Lawyer you've pretty much got to be an asshole most of the time. It's part of the job, those two things go together. Cruz didn't have family connections or family money to move on up the ladder - he made it where he is by being a smart mouthed asshole who fought for every inch, every step of the way. So, that's who he is, he's never going to be anything else.

And yet the fake "libertarians" and "conservatarians" approve of these police state gestapo tactics while simultaneously clutching their pearls that this Trump character might be some kind of... authoritarian.
This really is the crux of it for a lot of people: we have to use these tactics against the president because we fear he might use them against us

which is not always a good trait. It's what was needed though and Trump
was the chosen one.
Posted by: Can't resist temptation at June 11, 2019 01:22 PM (2DOZq)I think its more that Trump is non-ironic, non-self reflective/self absorbed, is garish, broad, vain, petty, vindictive and lewd, (unlike the Left, where all vice must be covert)...and wildly successful. He is the antithesis of public virtue and cool, and yet he is gifted and effective.He's basically everyone they hated in highschool, magnified insanely by their own cultural obsessions and their own sense of personal failure and inadequacy.
It makes me laugh so hard it hurts.

My local Ford dealer did me dirty on a vehicle sale. Went in to sign paperwork and put deposit down so they could do a dealer transfer for the vehicle I wanted. Sales guy I had the price negotiated. Over comes the Sales Manager and proceeds to tell me they couldn't/wouldn't sell me that vehicle for the price we negotiated. Raised my voice so others in showroom could hear that they were screwing me. Then walked out. I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire now.

I like Cruz but he's not much of a leader.
IMO Cruz has 2 problems:
1. He's not likable. He'll never hold elective office higher than the Senate and he'll have a hard time, every time, getting re-elected.
2. He's too much of a lawyer. Book smart but doesn't understand things viscerally outside of the law. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses but he has to rely on advisers and he's had some horrible ones.

Then when I went in, the sales guy went to lunch basically in the middle of our conversation. And when I left contact info with the sales manager, they never contacted me.
So figured that was a sign. Got a good lease deal with Acura and went with that instead.
But a lion never forgets a slight.
My local Ford dealer did me dirty on a vehicle sale. Went in to sign paperwork and put deposit down so they could do a dealer transfer for the vehicle I wanted. Sales guy I had the price negotiated. Over comes the Sales Manager and proceeds to tell me they couldn't/wouldn't sell me that vehicle for the price we negotiated. Raised my voice so others in showroom could hear that they were screwing me. Then walked out. I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire now.

I highly, highly recommend watching the Mark Steyn/Geo Papadopoulos interviews (posted on Steyn online and for some unknown reason still on Youtube). It is so much more than a weaponization pushed by the Hillary people. It was, by all appearances, a CIA and FBI driven op, including outright entrapment. Hillary may have been the inspiration or initial impetus, but it was clearly taken up by rogue intelligence and LE as their own cause.
One, thuggish detail that tends to get lost in the mix is how George P was given 10,000 in cash by a mysterious figure in Tel Aviv, tried to return it, then gave it to an attorney in Greece for safekeeping, only to be arrested and searched without pretext once arriving in the US by FBI, presumably to "find" undeclared cash they tried to plant on him.
Even reading the "perjury" counts against GP are sickening. Taking a statements voluntarily given by GP about Misfud as "BS ing" and is characterizing him as a "big nothing" as basis for perjury, because GP supposedly "knew" Misfud had big connections in Russia. So let me get this straight: if in an interview with the FBI I say Barack Obama is a big nothing and a BSer that's grounds for perjury, because the TRUTH is he is not a "nothing"?
The manifest bad faith and abuse by Mueller (apart from the CIA/FBI op) is so clear that I really think Barr needs to recommend charges against him as well.

It is all about immigration because that is their method for outvoting real Americans. These monetary bubbles have made us broke and oligarchs mega rich, able to own our government. (some investors got to go along for the stock ride, and now expect government to protect their manipulated paper wealth)
SO much fiat money in the markets, conjured out of thin air ... and now working people invested with the oligarchs ... they run the money, and we keep giving them more power (our extra money invests in globalism ... which is not America First capitalism, will not maintain liberty)

IMO Cruz has 2 problems: 1. He's not likable. He'll never hold elective office higher than the Senate
and he'll have a hard time, every time, getting re-elected.
2. He's too much of a lawyer. Book smart but doesn't understand things viscerally outside of the law. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses but he has to rely on advisers and he's had some horrible ones.
His voice is high pitched and whiny which I think hurts him too.

Corruption appeals because it is so often rewarding. Yes, eventually you pay for it, but in the immediate short term the benefits can be enormous. Weak people and those of little moral fiber are easily corrupted, especially in a culture which cares only about the short term.
This more than anything is I think why the global warming crap has had so little traction. Warning people that things will suck in a few generations after you're dead doesn't really grab anyone in modern culture.

At least that's how I read the government's "reasoning," there.

The problem I had with Cruz was he, like a dozen others, were nothing more than crutches to help Yeb win. They were all Bushies in one form or another. The only exceptions were Ben Carson. When Trump slayed Yeb and the Bushies in SC, I was completely sold. It was about this time that Ace began accepting the term 'Cuck' on the blog without sending you to the barrel. Things change, but without Trump, that would have never changed anywhere in True Conservative Media.

So I'm going back to sedans for the next lease.

In 1983 Ted Kennedy went to the Soviet Union and offered to collaborate with them.
This is when the Soviet Union was an avowed *ENEMY* of the United States at a existential level - not just a rival like Putin's Russia.
Had Ronald Reagan then gone and had the CIA and FBI spy on the Mondale campaign based on this he would have been impeached, prosecuted, and jailed.
Because the core part of a republic is that you don't get to use the government against your domestic political opponents.

It was, by all appearances, a CIA and FBI driven op, including outright entrapment. Hillary may have been the inspiration or initial impetus, but it was clearly taken up by rogue intelligence and LE as their own cause.
I think a lot of law enforcement get caught up with winning the case more than doing justice, especially in the DOJ. I think they feel they're so right and so good and on the side of the angels so anyone who they put their sights on has to go down at any cost, so it sort of takes on a life of its own.
Well, look at who's NOT getting bad press and that's who the Dem power brokers want.
Sanders. He's getting almost no pushback or bad press. The worst thing that he's gotten in the press was self-inflicted with the "felon vote" nonsense. As awful and racist as this sounds, I think it was his attempt to appeal to black voters. You can almost hear him thinking in that Larry David voice "A lot of blacks are in prison. I should find a way to use that"

Nah. She doesn't get bad press because she doesn't get hardly ANY press. (And the little she does get is unfavorable, mainly focusing on her prosecution of the bruthas.) She's the Reds' answer to Cruz - a lousy retail politician - but with a brown heinie instead of Cruz's intellect.
The hard left doesn't want Biden, but I suspect that the DNC thinks he's their only chance at victory, and for that reason alone he'll be the nominee.

Can you imagine how much Lefty heads would detonate if Trump nominated Cruz to the SCOTUS?? HA!
Btw, Cuccinelli is taking over at DHS, and Never Trumpers and Democrats are OUTRAGED! OUTRAGED WE SAY!!! Pretty amusing how Trump did it; first, recall that Cuccinelii has domce out strongly against birthright citizenship and is in favor of using the military on the border. The GOP-e told Trump that was WAY too extreme and that they would never confirm him to a Cabinet position, that he should withdraw the name.
SO, instead, Trump never nominated him. Instead, he hired Cooch to be a Senior Deputy Secretary (something like that, it was a new position) and this did not call for any Senate Review. Then, he redid the organization chart and specified, that when there was no actual Homeland Security Secretary (remember Nielson either got fired or resigned) then the Senior Deputy Secretary was at the top of the chart and would be in complete charge of everything and be acting Secretary.
And the final part of the plan is to simply never nominate anyone for HS Secretary and just let Cooch run it as long as Trump wants him to. And the never-trumpers and rinos's in the Senate can complain and moan, but there isn't a damn thing they can do about it.

And yet the fake "libertarians" and "conservatarians" approve of these
police state gestapo tactics while simultaneously clutching their pearls
that this Trump character might be some kind of... authoritarian.
Everybody here knows this, but those who haven't paid much attention to politics probably doesn't: Obama set this up by his selective enforcement of laws. If he didn't like certain laws, he just didn't enforce them, like immigration.
Now President Trump takes office and seeks to fulfill his Constitutional duty by enforcing laws, Democrats start screaming that he's an "authoritarian." It's a nice little rhetorical smear.
I sure hope people know this and can see through it.

Sanders. He's getting almost no pushback or bad press.

Hillary stole the 2016 nomination from him. So far he's let it go - presumably whatever deal he made led to his 3rd house which he bought in 2017...
But, if Bernie decides to actually make an issue of 2016's theft he can easily throw the election to Trump....so the Dems have to be very, very careful.

One, thuggish detail that tends to get lost in the mix is how George P was given 10,000 in cash by a mysterious figure in Tel Aviv, tried to return it, then gave it to an attorney in Greece for safekeeping, only to be arrested and searched without pretext once arriving in the US by FBI, presumably to "find" undeclared cash they tried to plant on him.
============
George P is a very smart young man, and I suspect, had an angel looking over his shoulder. Most guys in his position would have been toast.

I agree with you. "Rogue" carries the connotation of one acting alone, which I completely agree was not the case. The scope of the surveillance/unmasking op itself belies the fact. But I guess that while I'd ultimately want Obama and Hillary in jail, I'll settle for Brennan, Comey, Clapper, Paige, Stzrok, Ohr, Ohr, Yates, Simpson, Steele, 3 or 4 partners from Perkins Coie and a half-dozen co-conspirators.
