You are THE worst ever Congress.
Where are you? What are your priorities? Why are you complicit to the chaos? Am just going to make a list of the crap from the past week or so where Congress should be a counterbalance.
Dear Representatives -
You really cannot make this shit up. (And yes my semi-polite polish is now worn away when talking to you lazy, spineless, good for nothing, kowtowing, bootlicking posers.)
Where are you? What are your priorities? Why are you complicit to the chaos? Am just going to make a list of the crap from the past week or so where Congress should be a counterbalance. I am hand delivering to your local offices except for Fetterman who doesn't even bother to maintain an office in the 3rd largest metro area in the State - another layer of stupid.
- VPOTUS and SecDHS blaming an ICE protesting mother who was shot in the face before any reasonable investigation was conducted. (And yes the Minnesota democrats who did the same thing but in the other direction are wrong too.) When a protester is shot and killed it is a big fucking deal that requires gravitas and leadership. VPOTUS is a feces sucking disgrace who punched down on the victim (in a year that a January 6th rioter's estate was blithely given a $5MM wrongful death settlement.) We ARE fucking AMERICA. Even if the shooting was justified, we are fucking sympathetic to protesters who were fucking shot in the fucking face and killed. Even if we want to support our team, we dispassionately investigate and then see how we can avoid shooting protesters in the face again. [Hint standing in front of their cars and screaming at them is not de-escalation tactic.] We do not need some lying DHS script that says the car is a lethal weapon, so it was self defense - DHS and VPOTUS have lost all credibility with this script. Impeach Noem (and Lewandowski) and send them back to whatever rock they need to stay under because little green men shooting protesters is unacceptable. Why do we wait for the dispassionate investigation, why do we treat people shot and killed with respect, why do we face events with calming bipartisan leadership? Because our government represents our people, not our political tribe. People are angry that deporting the worst of the worst has turned into ICE being driven by that un-elected prick-headed Miller yelling "more, more, more" and deporting a majority of people who have no criminal record at all. It is clear DHS is incapable of training and managing agents in a manner that protects the public and it will likely get worse as the training is short-cut and bozos are hired at pace. Have the use of force policies reviewed and updated by experts to protect citizens and others. Train agents not to stand in front of moving cars and have experts review the recent shooting to make sure agents are not intentionally and unnecessarily stepped in front of moving cars to justify using deadly force against vehicle occupants - like border patrol agents have done repeatedly in the past.
- The Venezuela debacle - sure most of us have no love lost for Maduro. But in essence we captured the king pin and left his kelptocratic hench-people in power. Without a plan other than Trump wanting to claim the oil and arm twist oil companies to invest in an unstable country. Oh, sure our diminutive SecState was angry that Venezuala threatened to kill him around a decade ago and aspires to drive socialism and communism from the region - but get a fucking grip. What kind of dumb ass says the American SecState should run Cuba - the leaderslop by rage bait is inexcusable. There is no Don-roe Doctrine - it is the dumb bro doctrine without any strategic direction or tactical plans. Stop the fawning jazz clapping for Maduro's capture and put on your big boyz pants and assert Congress' right of approval under the War Powers Resolution of 1973 to approve engagement of military forces. And don't approve stupid shit.
- Greenland - see my previous communication on this topic - but in a nutshell - use the base we already have for strategic deterrence and use commercial mechanisms to lock in rare earth minerals. And put on your big boyz pants and assert Congress' right of approval under the War Powers Resolution of 1973 to approve engagement of military forces. And don't approve stupid shit like blowing up NATO allies.
- Epstein files - have seen estimates that DOJ has released 1-5% of the files. They are thumbing their noses at Congress. What the fuck are you doing in response? Lift your heads from your drool cups and kick some ass. Impeach Bondi and Blanche and get the files released - NOW.
- What the fuck does the administration think it is doing pressuring the Fed chair by DOJ criminal investigation. Lift your heads from your drool cups and kick some ass. Impeach Bondi and Blanche.
How much ill considered nonsense can Congress stomach while walking around like zombies pretending work is getting done? Your inaction is putting people and our country at risk.
With much concern and very little respect,
John
