Gerontocracy:

a form of oligarchical rule in which an entity is ruled by leaders who are significantly older than most of the adult population.

1/ Congressman Bill Posey is getting a free pass from @January6thCmte, @TheJusticeDept, and the public in general, but he shouldn't be. His lies about the election, and his attempts to overturn the results are documented at length here.

Enjoy ☕

2/ Bill Posey is the U.S. Representative for all of Brevard County, FL. We are known for being home to the Kennedy Space Center and for having the most capitol rioters. But there's so much more...

3/ Before Bill Posey was a Congressman, he was a State Senator in Florida, and after the 2000 election debacle here, he was one of the key architects of Florida's election reform laws which opened the state to electronic machine voting.

So much for separation of church and state, @RepMaxineWaters took the pulpit to tell churchgoers that @SenateGOP members were racist and dishonorable and that she’s done everything in her power to impeach @realDonaldTrump #AquittedForever #TermLimits

Would be curious to know if this church is 501(c)3 because if they are they should have it revoked @IRSnews

WILLIAM RUTO: If you cannot trust your child with an #education system that you are supervising, who else can trust it. All my children do the #Kenyan education system. #NBSPeopleAndPower #Interview
WILLIAM RUTO: I do not fit in any of the stereotype descriptions. I do not have much of a family name, neither do I belong to the largest community in Kenya, nor have the financial muscle. That is the Kenya of yesteryear. Today we have a different #Kenya. #NBSPeopleAndPower
RUTO: You cannot execute a national assignment using ethnic tools. You cannot run a national agenda using an ethnic vehicle. That is why you should safeguard the foundation of #NRM, and all other parties - they should all work to have a national constituency. #NBSPeopleAndPower

#ThrowbackThursday @RepJerryNadler
"impeachment of a President was reserved by the Framers of the Constitution for only the most severe threats against the nation and our system of government..It should not be used for mere partisan purposes to overturn the will of the people"
@RepJerryNadler @SpeakerPelosi @HouseDemocrats "It would be a regrettable legacy of this matter if Congress gets into the business of issuing sweeping statements on the conduct of future Presidents" @RepJerryNadler 1998
@RepJerryNadler @SpeakerPelosi @HouseDemocrats "Impeachment Inquiries are serious. In our partisan zeal, we have diverted attention from other important issues.. which could not be considered because we were focused on the inquiry..this has unnecessarily trampled on the rights of innocent citizens" @BobbyScott 1998

1. The #WTO World Trade Organization, established during the #Clintons Presidency 1994

Sacrificing our Sovereignty, marching USA into the #NewWorldOrder

Approved by the likes of @senatemajldr / @SpeakerPelosi

@CongressDish

BEWARE OF THE #USMCA 👉

2. The #USMCA

Think it’s about FREE TRADE with our neighbors ?

No

It’s about linking us into the #NewWorldOrder , tying us to world regulations and the UN

We desperately need #TermLimits to thwart attacks like this on American Sovereignty 👉

3. #USMCA

Free Trade agreement? Think again

#Congress is supposed to be responsible for immigration, right?

SURPRISE!

This “Treaty subordinates the United States’ sovereign power over immigration to global and multi-national bodies. USMCA Art. 16.2”

1/ A lot of people rightfully complain that far too many Congresspeople are in Congress for decades, and such a thing should never happen. It's actually antithetical to the the vision the founders had for our country.
2/ But it just dawned on me that the people who seem to be most vocal about people being in Congress for far too long are generally Republicans. So, on a hunch, I did a quick Google search to find the seniority of current Reps & Sens. Here's the House:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seniority…
3/ Here's the list of Senate Seniority: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seniority…

Notice any patterns in the two lists? 3 of the 5 most senior Reps and 4 of the 5 most senior Sens are Republicans. 50% of the top 10 in both houses are Republicans. 50% of the top 20 in the Senate are GOP.

The professional politicians have done an excellent job of splitting up the issues to keep the citizens fighting with each other so we don’t focus on the fact that they are the problem, not us.
The professional wrestling promoters know that good fighting evil and prompting the audience to be involved in the action will keep people engaged. Our career politicians know it, too.

Without a crisis to engage the public, the career politician is less significant.

#TermLimits
#ManufacturedCrisis are common in politics - They provide another more sinister advantage to the professional politician: misdirection and sleight of hand.

Both sides do it

They do it because there are no #TermLimits

#WeThePeople can put an end to it

My Make Washington Work plans includes 3 constitutional amendments and one bill to change federal statues.

Part 1: a supermajority to raises any taxes or fees. We did this in the state of Florida. We can do it in Washington.
Part 2: a constitutional amendment establishing #TermLimits on members of the House and the Senate. No Member of Congress would be permitted to serve longer than 12 years.

It’s clear that Congress is NOT working for the people. We need to end the practice of career politicians.
Part 3: we need line-item veto authority for the President of the United States. This is something that I had as Governor that allowed me to veto wasteful spending.

The federal government has a spending problem. A line item veto would help solve that problem.

THREAD: Body Language Analysis No. 4381: Trump 'jokes' about staying in office for "at least for 10 or 14 years" • • #Nonverbal #EmotionalIntelligence #BodyLanguage #BodyLanguageExpert #DonaldTrump #MuellerReport #BarrPressConference #TermLimits
1/ On Thursday 18 April 2019, in the East Room of the White House, President Trump hosted cyclists of the Wounded Warrior Project - Soldier Ride. This event took place after Attorney General William Barr's press conference regarding The Mueller Report.
2/ President Trump was given a small statue. Just afterward, he said (beginning at 1:14:21 in the above video): "Well, this is really beautiful. This will find a permanent place - at least for six years [audience laughter] in the Oval Office..."

At this point, I hope and pray that change is certain, it has to be. Peace is usually followed by disturbances, departure of evil men by their return. The current leadership don’t appear to be leaders at all. Where has the integrity of an oath gone? Of the people by the people...
God, duty, country, where’s that? How is it that so many of our elected “leaders” have been led say? How is it our last bastion of hope for our democracy been compromised? The compromise of intelligence and integrity truly sickens me. Who can follow a leader with no direction?
Who has not served cannot command. We are not being served by our current leaders. The test of leadership is the ability to recognize a problem before it becomes an emergency. The Supreme Court is supposed to be the epitome of ethics. Ethics must begin at the top.

Let's just go ahead an debunk that Eshoo hand delivered anything on July 30th, she was getting a new hip that day🤪 #LetterGate
Just need to say a few things about this because I’ve been ranting about #lettergate days. It was was supposedly written by Blasey, why she didn’t sign it nobody knows. WHY so many inconsistencies? July 6th she notified Eshoo’s office..
Yet here Eshoo appears to tell @NewsHour that Ford contacted her office AFTER July 9th, she doesn’t say it but she certainly doesn’t correct it. July 30 letter is delivered to Feinstein in DC... by? Fax? Other reports say by hand. #LetterGate

Defining “Socialist” isn’t hard. You just have to read their work & listen to their leaders

And what you’ll find is frightening

Worse yet, the Dem Socialists of America (DSA) actually has a good shot of gaining power if we don’t wake up & fight back

Let’s read their plan: 1/17
.@DemSocialists want to abolish capitalism and transfer ownership of “essential” industries / related businesses to the govt or worker committees.

Why?

“Wealth is a social creation and should be controlled by society as a whole.”

(bit.ly/2vfQ7E5)
DSA’ers are squishy when defining which industries they’d nationalize. But the list touches every possible business, from food to electronics

Workers would then vote on which role is best for them, similar to the disastrous experiment at Zappos in 2016. (bit.ly/2DKlGNd)

If #MuellerInvestigation can’t show collusion, an obstruction charge won’t stick. #Republican argument: Not a crime to stop a witch hunt. The better path if no collusion? Make #2018Elections a vote about whether #Trump is the best we can do. Then move on. latimes.com/politics/la-na…
Meanwhile, #Democrats would be wise to acknowledge politicization of senior #FBI & #CIA officials (esp Comey & Co’s handling of #Dossier, #Strzok fiasco, etc) and own the illegality of #ClintonEmails. The credibility earned would allow voters to better hear an inspired Dem pitch.
The #Democrat’s pitch? “We’re the adults who can fix what’s broken.” Otherwise, it’s just, “At least we’re not #Trump!” Americans are tired of hearing that argument. We want inspired, honest leadership, and a balanced path fwd. Start w/ #TermLimits. foxnews.com/opinion/2016/1…
