rd<\/sup> 2019<\/i><\/p>\nKamela Harris announced unexpectedly that she was dropping her run for the White House today. Her message said, \u201cI\u2019ve taken stock and looked at this from every angle, and over the last few days have come to one of the hardest decisions of my life. My campaign for president simply doesn\u2019t have the financial resources we need to continue.\u201d<\/p>\n
That\u2019s probably completely true, in and of itself. But then she tweeted something that caused me to scratch my chin and smile: \u201cIt has been the honor of my life to be your candidate. We will keep up the fight.\u201d With any other candidate, that would be boilerplate farewell verbiage, on par with \u201cspend more time with my family.\u201d But Harris has other fights in her near future.<\/p>\n
Trump, that pile of trash masquerading as a President, tweeted, \u201cToo bad. We will miss you Kamala!\u201d and went on to congratulate Tulsi Gabbard, his fellow Russian asset.<\/p>\n
Kamala tweeted back, \u201cDon\u2019t worry, Mr. President. I\u2019ll see you at your trial.\u201d<\/p>\n
Which confirmed what I already suspected.<\/p>\n
Yes, the Harris campaign was in trouble, and it was inevitable that she would have to drop the run in the fairly near future. And it would be a good move in the long run, since this was pretty much a \u201cgroundwork\u201d campaign, one that assumed she wouldn\u2019t get the brass ring this time, but would build good will, name recognition and reputation for a future run\u2014which she has accomplished.<\/p>\n
But Kamala Harris isn\u2019t just a candidate: she is a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and a brilliant and accomplished prosecutor.<\/p>\n
The House Intelligence Select Committee today released its report, \u201cThe Trump-Ukraine Impeachment Inquiry Report\u201d which contains not only all the damning evidence presented in the hearings before the committee, but a few more, such as access to phone records (even cell phones, because Trump and his henchmen were too stupid to encrypt their conversations!) and an entire galaxy of connections and transactions that pretty much make any defense of Trump impossible.<\/p>\n
The committee vote on whether to refer this damning report to the House floor, headlined in nearly every news outlet in the country and expected to be read by tens of millions of Americans, was voted to the floor by a 13-9 vote, strictly along party lines. The Republicans, cowards, crooks and traitors all, didn\u2019t even want the report discussed in the House. Republicans have no moral or ethical basement, and hold America and its citizenry in infinite contempt. They will try to maintain a wall of nihilistic ideology for as long as humanly possible. The full House vote may well fall along party lines, and Rupert Murdoch\u2019s filthy Goebbels machine will claim it means the impeachment stems only from Democratic malice, and not any wrongdoing on Trump\u2019s part.<\/p>\n
When it reaches the Senate, it will take on the elements of a criminal trial, with the Chief Justice overseeing the procedure. McConnell will do all in his power to short-circuit the process, but John Roberts isn\u2019t about to let his reputation destroyed by the corrupt juggalo show that the Republicans will hope for.<\/p>\n
The Senate Judiciary Committee will be presenting the case against Trump. Kamala Harris is on that committee.<\/p>\n
The Democrats need a prosecutor who can, clearly and succinctly, convince a jury that no reasonable doubt exists. That most of the jurors in this case are members of that corrupt and criminal enterprise that used to be the Republican party means she has to be at the top of her game, her actions and activities utterly unimpeachable.<\/p>\n
Now, she won\u2019t turn the Republicans into honest and decent Americans. She will just convince the public, and make it impossible for the Senate cockroaches to function in the merciless glare of her case-building.<\/p>\n
Harris is perfect for the position. We\u2019ve already seen how good she is in that role. The Republicans would be right to fear her.<\/p>\n
Except you can\u2019t have a prosecutor who is trying a suspect and at the same time trying to take the suspect\u2019s job. That\u2019s a conflict of interest a mile wide, and one the Republicans would immediately use to try to undermine her legitimacy and thus debunk any and all evidence she presents against Trump.<\/p>\n
By dropping out of the campaign, Harris has removed that vulnerability. The Republicans will whine that she\u2019s a Democrat and that\u2019s why she\u2019s so mean to that nice Mister Trump, but that won\u2019t fly.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, over one hundred million Americans are going to be watching as she lays out the case against Trump. She will make the stonewalling and lies of Republicans untenable. She will shatter Trump and his criminal cabal.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why she dropped out, right now. She is far more important to the country as a Senator than she could possibly be as a presidential candidate and thus compromised.<\/p>\n
Do your job, Senator Harris, and win your case! Your country will remember it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
