Marine Sgt, Maj. Dan Daly is known for being one of the most decorated service members of all time. He was awarded not one, but TWO medals of honor.
He coined an expression that will forever live on in books, movies, and among troops He almost earned a third for his part in a counter-attack against the enemy in the famous Battle of Belleau Wood. Instead, Daly was given the Distinguished Service Cross and, later, the Navy Cross.
In June 1918 at the battle of Belleau Wood in WW1, the Marines were pinned down under heavy artillery barrage. At one point in the battle, the now 44 year old Daly, led his Marines in a counter-attack against machine gun emplacements with a battle cry that has become Marines lore “Come on, you sons of B——, do you want to live forever?!” In the course of that battle he was wounded three times. 1,800 Marines died in the battle of Belleau Wood.
These are the types of Americans that our current sitting president refers to as "losers."
And Putin's asset in the Oval Office STILL hasn't uttered one word about the bounties that Putin has placed on the heads of our troops in Afghanistan.
Since then we learned that a violent collision took place in Syria between US and Russian troops that left American troops with concussions, two U.S. officials said. Two Russian helicopters flew above the Americans, and one of the aircraft was within about 70 feet the vehicle.
The injuries occurred when one of the Russian vehicles deliberately sideswiped an American vehicle in a convoy, causing the crew to suffer "concussion-like injuries." Initial reports indicate as many as four Americans may have been injured.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
―President Theodore Roosevelt
Trump has made it abundantly clear that he believes in nothing, honors nothing, and respects nothing. As a veteran, the oath I took would never allow me to vote for a domestic threat to my country like Trump. Trump has repeatedly betrayed America, it's people, as well as his oath of office. And as a Marine veteran, his betrayals to this country are unforgettable, and unforgivable.
Semper Fi.

June 3, 2016, Don Jr receives this email at 10:36 AM, from Rob Goldstone.
"Emin just called and asked me to contact you with something very interesting."
"The Crown prosecutor of Russia met with his father Aras this morning and in their meeting offered to provide the Trump campaign with some official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father."
"This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump - helped along by Aras and Emin" Goldstone wrote.
Don Jr. agrees to hold the meeting at Trump Tower, and sets the date for June 9.
On June 7, 2016, just days before the Trump Tower meeting, Trump announced a “major speech” he claimed would reveal damaging information about Hillary. "I am going to give a major speech on probably Monday of next week and we’re going to be discussing all of the things that have taken place with the Clintons,” Trump said. “I think you’re going to find it very informative and very, very interesting."
On June 9, 2016, a meeting was held in Trump Tower between three senior members of the Donald Trump presidential campaign – Don Jr., Kushner, and Manafort – and at least five other people, including Russian Russian agents.
On July 27 2016, on national tv, Trump invites Russia to meddle in our elections.
“Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,” Mr. Trump said during a news conference here in an apparent reference to Mrs. Clinton’s deleted emails. “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.”
Later that same day, the 12 Russian operatives indicted in the special counsel investigation, launched the 1st cyber attack against the DNC.
Translation: Trump is guilty of treason.

For decades, Trump has laundered billions of dollars for Russian organized crime figures and other oligarchs. Ultimately Trump's involvement with Russia's criminal underworld created an opening for Putin and his agents to manipulate and control him.
Trump has had contacts with the Russian mafia for 35 years. His properties have laundered money for them. The Russian mafia is connected to Russian intelligence. They were and still are, living and working in Trump's buildings. Trump has even partnered with them. There are many ways in which Trump has been compromised.
After the fall of the Soviet Union, you suddenly had Russians who became wealthy Oligarchs overnight, with billions of dollars that have to be laundered out of Russia. It opened the floodgates for the Russian mafia and for the oligarchs. A good way to launder that money is through real estate. Trump made it clear he was ready, willing and able to do that without asking any questions. Trump was $4 billion in debt after his casinos failed in Atlantic City. He came back thanks to the Russians.
The Republicans are also implicated. The Russians didn't just go after Trump: They went after the entire Republican Party. There is Russian money going into the Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee, the NRA, and then to Republican officials and candidates directly.
When Trump first visited Russia in 1987, he immediately came back and took outt full page ads in the New York Times, the Boston Globe and Washington Post. These ads were very anti-NATO, anti-Western alliance, and that was exactly what the Russians wanted, even today.
Back in 1984, Trump had started laundering money for the Russian mafia. In ‘92, the Russian mafia had people like Vyacheslav Kirillovich Ivankov, who was one of the key figures under the mob boss Mogilevich. The FBI was looking all over for him but he was actually in Trump Tower. A lot of the Russian mobsters were going to Trump Tower to launder money as well. Trump was completely overextended in Atlantic City. He ended up $4 billion in debt. He had no future at all until the Russians came to his aid.
Russian Oligarchs made Trump an offer that he could not refuse. Suddenly Trump started dealing with cash, because he couldn’t get loans from American banks anymore. The only bank that would loan him money was Deutsche Bank, which is the preferred bank for Russian Oligarchs and the Russian mafia..
There were ways of laundering money that Trump had. The financing of building projects that involved $400 million or $500 million to build a skyscraper. Once the building was constructed, they could sell the condos through the shell companies, and limited liability corporations. This was done anonymously in all cash transactions with Russian oligarchs and other people affiliated with the Russian mafia. They owned Trump before he ever met Putin. Trump became close with the oligarchs who were in turn close to Putin.

Trump is currently going through the 5 stages of grief and loss.
1. Denial:
Avoidance, confusion, shock, and fear.
2. Anger:
Frustration, irritation, anxiety. Currently Trump is stuck between this stage and stage 1 of grief.
3. Bargaining:
Struggling to find meaning, reaching out to others. It’s not uncommon to look for ways to regain control, or to feel like you can affect the outcome of an event.
4. Depression:
Feeling overwhelmed, helplessness, hostility, flight.
5. Acceptance:
Moving on...
This is the stage that a malignant narcissist like Trump will never reach, because he will NEVER allow himself to truly admit that he lost the election. In fact, Trump may spend the rest of his life waking up every morning at stage 1, and slowly working his way down to stage 4 by the end of the day, and starting the process over again the next morning. 😄
Trump reminds me of Gollum when he lost his precious. Poor Gollum never made it to stage 5 of acceptance either. 😄
"He stole it from us!!!! Trixie Bidenses!!!!!"😭😭

Trump praises Kim Jung Un ' control over his people.
"He's the head of the country," Trump said of Kim during a Fox interview.
"And I mean he's the strong head. Don't let anyone think anything different."
"He speaks and his people sit up at attention," Trump added. "I want my people to do the same."
Sept 30 2018
Trump confesses the love he has for his muse, Kim Jung Un, during a rally.
"I like him, he likes me. I guess that’s okay. Am I allowed to say that?” Trump said.
“And then we fell in love, okay” he said. “No really. He wrote me beautiful letters, and they’re great letters. We fell in love.”
“If there is one fact we really can prove, from the history that we really do know, it is that despotism can be a development, often a late development and very often indeed the end of societies that have been highly democratic.. A despotism may almost be defined as a tired democracy. As fatigue falls on a community, the citizens are less inclined for that eternal vigilance which has truly been called the price of liberty; and they prefer to arm only one single sentinel to watch the city while they sleep.”
― G.K. Chesterton, The Everlasting Man
“There’s no English equivalent for silovik. It doesn’t translate succinctly because to create something as Machiavellian as a silovik requires both the KGB and the GRU, and then a shift from communism to capitalism, followed by a gear-grinding reverse into despotism.”
― Tanya Thompson, Red Russia
“The actions of government, we are told, bear down only on imprudent souls who provoke them. The man who resigns himself and keeps silent is always safe. Reassured by this worthless and specious argument, we do not protest against the oppressors. Instead we find fault with the victims. Nobody knows how to be brave even prudentially. Everyone stays silent, keeping his head low in the self-deceiving hope of disarming the powers that be by his silence. People give despotism free access, flattering themselves they will be treated with consideration. Eyes to the ground, each person walks in silence the narrow path leading him safely to the tomb.”
― Benjamin Constant, Principles of Politics Applicable to All Governments
“The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.”
― Franklin D. Roosevelt.
The Founders placed articles of impeachment in the Constitution for the purpose of protecting our democracy. A democracy that Trump clearly has no respect for, and is trying to tear apart.
Article II, Section 4, says the president “shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."

“I think, importantly, what Obama did leave Trump is a global health infrastructure that we had set up informed by the lessons of the Ebola outbreak,” Ben Rhodes said before pointing to a National Security Council (NSC) pandemic directorate that was dismantled by the Trump administration in 2018.
And what we did is set up, in the White House, ... an office that was responsible for managing pandemics, managing global health threats that was shut down two years ago by President Trump.
And when you don’t have an office like that, you don’t have dedicated people inside the White House who are ensuring that information is acted upon. When you see an outbreak in a place like Wuhan, China, you want people in the White House who are thinking about what needs to be done right away so that you don’t get behind the curve, which is what happened in this White House.
You need a president who’s willing to hear bad news, willing to understand that they’re going to have to focus on something that they may have not intended to focus on. President trump clearly did not want to hear that bad news when he heard about the outbreak in coronavirus,”
--Ben Rhodes, Former Deputy National Security Adviser under President Obama

The multiple times Trump praised China and his idol President Xi, the leader of the Communist party, on his handling of the coronavirus:
Jan. 24, Twitter:
“China has been working very hard to contain the Coronavirus. The United States greatly appreciates their efforts and transparency. It will all work out well. In particular, on behalf of the American People, I want to thank President Xi!”
Feb. 7, Twitter:
“Just had a long and very good conversation by phone with President Xi of China. He is strong, sharp and powerfully focused on leading the counterattack on the Coronavirus. He feels they are doing very well, even building hospitals in a matter of only days … Great discipline is taking place in China, as President Xi strongly leads what will be a very successful operation. We are working closely with China to help!
Feb. 10, Fox Business interview:
"I think China is very, you know, professionally run in the sense that they have everything under control," Trump said. "I really believe they are going to have it under control fairly soon. You know in April, supposedly, it dies with the hotter weather. And that's a beautiful date to look forward to. But China I can tell you is working very hard."
Feb. 10, campaign rally in Manchester, N.H.:
“I spoke with President Xi, and they’re working very, very hard. And I think it’s all going to work out fine.”
Feb. 13, Fox News interview:
“I think they've handled it professionally and I think they're extremely capable and I think President Xi is extremely capable and I hope that it's going to be resolved."
Feb. 18, remarks before Air Force One departure:
“I think President Xi is working very hard. As you know, I spoke with him recently. He’s working really hard. It’s a tough problem. I think he’s going to do — look, I’ve seen them build hospitals in a short period of time. I really believe he wants to get that done, and he wants to get it done fast. Yes, I think he’s doing it very professionally.”
Feb. 23, remarks before Marine One departure:
"I think President Xi is working very, very hard. I spoke to him. He's working very hard. I think he's doing a very good job. It's a big problem. But President Xi loves his country. He's working very hard to solve the problem, and he will solve the problem. OK?"
Feb. 27, Coronavirus Task Force press conference:
“I spoke with President Xi. We had a great talk. He’s working very hard, I have to say. He’s working very, very hard. And if you can count on the reports coming out of China, that spread has gone down quite a bit. The infection seems to have gone down over the last two days. As opposed to getting larger, it’s actually gotten smaller.”
Feb. 29, Coronavirus Task Force press conference:
“China seems to be making tremendous progress. Their numbers are way down. … I think our relationship with China is very good."

Sen Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Chuck Grassley of Iowa, and other republicans on Capitol Hill,
have been unmasked as Russian operatives for disseminating Russian conspiracy theories, and for aiding and abetting Putin's efforts to interfere in the 2020 election..
Last month, four lawmakers who make up the Democratic half of the Gang of Eight, the group of congressional and intelligence committee leaders who are privy to top-secret intelligence, demanded a briefing for all members of Congress focused on foreign interference in the 2020 election, based on their assertions that lawmakers are being targeted by those meddling efforts. They also have urged Trump to publicly reveal additional information about the nature of the foreign-influence campaign. Intelligence officials told House lawmakers last week that the Russians are seeking to boost Trump in the 2020 campaign.
The public version of the letter was vague about those threats, but the classified addendum to the letter specifically names Sen Ron Johnson’s investigation as a vehicle for “laundering” Russian propaganda for the foreign influence campaign aimed at denigrating Biden.
The addendum states that the Ukrainian lawmaker linked to the Kremlin, Andrii Derkach, sent information packets about Biden to Johnson, Grassley and other Trump stooges who have pushed similar Russian conspiracy theories, as part of Putin's disinformation campaign on America.
NCSC Director William Evanina, along with other senior national security officials, briefed lawmakers in multiple classified sessions in late July and August. His statement explicitly accused the Ukrainian politician, Derkach, of undermining Biden through weaponized leaks. Derkach is known to have met late last year with Trump's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani.
The packets were sent by Andrii Derkach, a Ukrainian lawmaker who met with Trump’s personal lawyer Giuliani in Ukraine last December. Andrii Derkach, who was formerly aligned with Ukraine’s pro-Russia Party of Regions, is also an alumnus of Moscow’s FSB academy, formerly known as the Dzerzhinsky Higher School of the KGB. Andrii Derkach’s father Leonid was a KGB operative who later became the head of Ukrainian intelligence, and who was fired in 2004 shortly before Ukraine’s Orange Revolution.
The packets were sent late last year to Devin Nunes, Lindsey Graham, and Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), and then-White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney. Devin Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, declined to answer a colleague's question about whether he had received derogatory information about Joe Biden from Andrii Derkach.
During that closed-door meeting in late July — a transcript of which was made publicly available — Sean Patrick Maloney (D-N.Y.) pressed Nunes about reports indicating that he was one of several GOP lawmakers to whom packets of Russian propaganda were delivered from Derkach in December 2019 that contained allegations about Joe Biden. Derkach has confirmed he sent the packages to Nunes, as well as GOP Sens. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and Lindsey Graham. Nunes refused to answer the question.
Maloney responded by suggesting that Nunes's refusal to answer "speaks volumes" and indicated that committee staffers are "in possession of evidence that a package was received" by Nunes. 😲
That evidence, according to committee officials, is in the form of a DHL shipping receipt that was sent to the Intelligence Committee’s majority office shortly after the package was sent to Nunes..
"If any public official or member of any campaign is contacted by any nation-state, or anybody acting on behalf of a nation-state, about influencing or interfering with an election then that's something the FBI would want to know about,” FBI Director Christopher Wray said on June 12, 2019 — a day before Trump rebuked him and said he would probably accept such help.

Let's be clear, Flynn didn't lie to Pence or Trump about his contacts with the Russians, it was Trump and Pence who lied to the American people, because they knew all along about his contacts with the Russians. He was literally acting on their behalf.
When Trump fired Michael Flynn, in Feb 2017, White House officials portrayed him as a renegade who had acted independently in his discussions with a Russian official and then lied to Pence and others about the interactions. But emails among top transition officials, show that Flynn was far from a rogue actor. In fact, the emails, coupled with interviews and court documents showed that Flynn was in close touch with other senior members of the Trump transition team both before and after he spoke with the Russian ambassador, Kislyak, about American sanctions against Russia.
After learning that Obama would expel 35 Russian diplomats, the Trump team quickly strategized about how to reassure Russia.
On Dec. 29 2016, transition adviser K. T. McFarland, wrote in an email to a colleague that sanctions announced hours before by Obama in retaliation for Russian election meddling were aimed at discrediting Trump’s victory. The sanctions,,she wrote, could also make it much harder for Mr. Trump to ease tensions with Russia, “which has just thrown the U.S.A. election to him,” she wrote in the emails.😲

Let's be honest, deep down, we all know he said it. They'll never admit it to themselves, but even his supporters know he said it.
Obama visited our Troops overseas 7 times. That's not even counting the multiple times he visited our troops at military bases here in America during the holidays. Obama visited our troops in Iraq just 3 months after taking office. Traitor Trump waited TWO WHOLE YEARS before he visited our troops for the first time in Iraq. And that was only after he was pushed to do so by advisers.
I have no doubt that Trump complained about having to make that trip to visit our troops the same way he complained about attending the memorial ceremony for our fallen in France.
Trump: "Why do I have to fly all the way to Iraq just to visit troops. They're a bunch of losers anyway."
And then when he finally made the trip, he turned that visit into a campaign rally for himself and used our troops as political props. Trump continues to show his contempt for our men and women in uniform with his silence concerning the Russian bounties placed on the heads of our troops in Afghanistan. To this day, he has not uttered one word about it. NOT.....ONE.
I knew back in 2016 before the election that Trump had no respect for our military the moment he said he knew more about fighting wars than our Generals do. He basically claimed to know more about fighting wars than Generals like Grant, Patton, Washington, MacArthur, Eisenhower, as well as our current living Generals like Mattis. This preposterous claim came from a draft dodger who has NEVER served one day in the military.
It goes without saying, that ONLY a vindictive draft dodging traitor, who has nothing but contempt for the men and women in our military, would utter something as outrageous and insulting as that. That was all I needed to hear.

Yes, Traitor Trump would be open to colluding with the Russians again. This is exactly how a criminal behaves when he feels like he's already gotten away with a crime. Trump feels emboldened now.

Trump in Helsinki: "I don't see any reason why it would be Russia." What???😲😲
October 10, 2016 in Wilkes-Barre, PA: "This just came out," Trump said. "WikiLeaks, I love WikiLeaks."
October 12, 2016 in Ocala, FL: "This WikiLeaks stuff is unbelievable," Trump said. "It tells you the inner heart, you gotta read it."
October 13, 2016 in Cincinnati, OH: "It's been amazing what's coming out on WikiLeaks."
October 31, 2016 in Warren, MI: "Another one came in today," Trump said. "This WikiLeaks is like a treasure trove."
November 4, 2016 in Wilmington, OH: "Getting off the plane, they were just announcing new WikiLeaks, and I wanted to stay there, but I didn't want to keep you waiting," said Trump. "Boy, I love reading those WikiLeaks."

Trump's entire campaign was practically being controlled by the Russians. And Trump, Jared, Flynn, Manafort, Don Jr, and Roger Stone were all in on it..
Michael Hayden, the former head of the CIA and National Security Agency, said Kushner, who discussed plans with the Russan Ambassador, to establish a secret communication channel with the Kremlin — using Russian facilities — without any monitoring by the U.S. was “off the map” and like nothing he has seen in his lifetime. “What manner of ignorance, chaos, hubris, suspicion, contempt would you have to have to think that doing this with the Russian ambassador was a good or an appropriate idea?” Hayden stated.
On December 13th, 2016, at Russian Ambassador Kislyak’s urging, Kushner met with Sergey Gorkov, a Russian banker who is close to Putin. Again, what jumps out from Kushner’s account of the meeting is the easy access that the Russians had to Trump's people —“I agreed to meet Mr. Gorkov because the Russian Ambassador has been so insistent,” and “said he had a direct relationship with” Putin, Kushner noted—and the obvious attempts to soften up Trump’s closest aides and family members. Gorkov, whose bank, Vnesheconombank, was affected by the Obama Administration’s sanctions against Russia..
Hayden was also convinced Don Jr's Trump Tower meeting, and Kushner’s secret meetings with the Russian Ambassador was a classic “soft approach” by Russian intelligence. Hayden argued that the meeting “is in line with what intelligence analysts would expect an overture in a Russian influence operation to look like,” and that it may have been the “green light Russia was looking for to launch a more aggressive phase of intervention in the U.S. election.”
Hayden explained that the Russians would have learned several things from the approach.
No. 1 “Would they take the meeting? So, then you get the willingness.. No. 2, would they report the meeting?” Hayden suggested that Russian intelligence was sophisticated enough to know whether the Trump campaign reported the meeting to the F.B.I., which it didn’t. Not only did they not report the meeting, they lied about the meeting when asked. Kushner even lied about the meetings on his security clearance application. So, while Kushner and Don. Jr claimed that the meetings were irrelevant, from a Russian intelligence perspective it would have been seen as a clear signal. “At the end, they have established that these guys are willing,” Hayden said, pausing. “How do I put this? They did not reject a relationship.”
When the full extent of Trump's treachery, crimes, and betrayal of this country are revealed, it will be far worse than most people ever imagined.
Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.
And ye shall know the TRUTH, and the truth shall make you free...

July 23, 2019, Trump said this: "I have an Article 2, where I have the right to do whatever I want as President."
June 15 2018
Trump praises Kim Jung Un ' control over his people.
"He's the head of the country," Trump said of Kim during a Fox interview.
"And I mean he's the strong head. Don't let anyone think anything different."
"He speaks and his people sit up at attention," Trump added. "I want my people to do the same."
“Whatever government is not a government of laws, is a despotism, let it be called what it may”
― Daniel Webste
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
― Theodore Roosevelt
If what Trump has done isn't wrong, then that means that nothing is wrong. if Trump isn't impeachable, then that means that no president will ever be impeachable, no matter what they do. And that will spell the end of our democracy, our Constitution, and our republic. It will be as if we never fought and won a war of independence against a King.
