Trump is a criminal, so are some Senators

President Trump declared yesterday, and thousands of times before, he has criminal intentions and has no respect for the rule of law. He is entirely unfit for the office and undermines the "oath" at every to the peril of our democratic republic.

House Democrats can wait no longer and must impeach him.

Treated as co-conspirators are Republicans who are intent on going along with him. That means when Trump is prosecuted for alleged crimes, and if he is found guilty, then there is a liability for those who protected him at the nation's peril.

Being thrown out of office should not be sufficient punishment for treasonous crimes and breaches of oaths of office.

Republicans, this is a red alert, you may be prosecuted along with the President.

Can't be too soon.

Trump Makes Case for Impeachment

In his own words in an interview with George Stephanopoulos President Donald Trump insists that he would accept dirt on political opponents from foreign governments. That defiant statement is sufficient to impeach Trump for a treasonous act. No one in government can have a security clearance for accepting such information from foreign governments without reporting it to the FBI, immediately.

The time to impeach Trump for this and 8-10 other counts of obstruction of justice is now, without delay.
Democrats in the US House and Republican patriots must act to conduct an impeachment query and to make the case, including Emoluments Clause violations of the US Constitution.
They must close the case with articles of impeachment and send them to the Senate for action. The case is so compelling the Republican Senators must choose between the law or their political ideology that is unAmerican. That evidence will be apparent to voters for them to choose in Election 2020.

"Even in the age of Trump, when we've gotten used to hearing unbelievable things, this was a stunner. The President, in an Oval Office interview with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos, said he would listen to a foreign government if it came to him with dirt on a political opponent. "I think you might want to listen," Trump said. "There isn't anything wrong with listening." Remember, the President has consistently downplayed Russian efforts to meddle in the 2016 contest and cast doubts on US intelligence agencies' assessments of it. Trump's statement also is at odds with FBI Director Christopher Wray's comment during his confirmation hearings that politicians and their operatives should report to the FBI attempts by foreign governments to interfere in US elections. Trump told ABC, "The FBI director is wrong.""

Red Flag Waving: Mitch McConnell

Reports about Mitch McConnell's and his wife, Elaine Chao's conflicts of interest come and go.

When Mitch married Elaine in 1993, she brought $22 million to the household from an inheritance. That followed McConnell's divorce from his former wife several years earlier.

"'How did Mitch McConnell’s net worth soar?' 

McConnell is a 30-year veteran of the Senate, having first entered the chamber in 1985. A senator earned $75,100 in 1985, and it has risen to $174,000 as of 2009, Senate records show. (No pay raise has taken place since then.) 

Indeed, a McConnell spokesman confirms that this was an inheritance for McConnell’s wife, former Labor Secretary Elaine Chao, after her mother died in 2007. Chao, who married McConnell in 1993, earns significant income on her own, serving on corporate boards, and has at least $1 million in a Vanguard 500 Index Fund. (Since these shares are in her name, McConnell only needs to report they have a minimum value of $1 million.)
Chao's father James S.C. Chao founded Foremost Maritime Corporation, which developed trade with Taiwan and was a major agent for shipments of rice during the Vietnam War. Today, Foremost Group still is a major shipping company. As an example of the firm’s success, a Chao family foundation donated $40 million to Harvard Business School in 2012, which Chao and three of her sisters attended."

There is nothing wrong with a Chinese immigrant prospering in America. However, one might wonder about the $40 million donations to Harvard from the father after his daughter attended the prestigious university.

There are much bigger worries.

Elaine Chao served as a cabinet executive in the Bush and Trump governments while husband, Mitch McConnell served in the Senate. Therein is a conflict of interest between the Executive and Legislative branches of government. Furthermore, Chao's family remains in the international shipping business over which she has authority as Transportation Director. That is a conflict of interest.
