It's making the rounds throughout the media - rumblings that Hillary Clinton may yet jump into the 2020 presidential race. She may be taking a page from hubby, who did not announce his run until the last minute, ensuring she will not have to face many candidates prepared to meet her head on in a debate.
So, what if the rumblings are true? What if Madame Hillary gets in the race?
I will make two predictions:
1) She will lose by a HUGE margin. For every Democrat who loves her, almost as many dislike her, and what she has done to the party. In addition, she will not be anywhere progressive enough to get the far-left base behind her, and many will choose instead to sit this one out.
2) Tulsi Gabbard, the candidate that Hillary was dumb enough to villify publicly, would change her mind about running as a third party candidate and go head-to-head with Hillary. While Tulsi has little chance of beating Hillary, she would most definitely take substantial votes away from her. And that would likely be Tulsi's intention - to bring Hillary down. "Hell hath no fury like that of a woman scorned."
If Hillary is smart (she really isn't) she would bite her tongue and just walk away into the proverbial sunset. She has been a First Lady, a Senator and a Secretary of State. That should be enough for anyone. What she does NOT need for a legacy is to be the woman who lost her bid for president three times - twice against Trump.
Quit while you are ahead, Mrs. Clinton.

Was Trump Right to Not Tell Democrats About the Raid
Nancy Pelosi - and Democrats in general - are in another "outrage" because President Trump did not advise them of the pending raid to deliver up al-Baghdadi. But if I were Trump, I would not have brought them into it, either.
We have seen, over and over, that the Democrats will do literally anything to prevent Trump from having any successes or triumphs. They are forever suing him and the administration to prevent any success on immigration or the border. Pelosi refuses to bring up for a vote the fair trade deals that both sides want, to insure Trump does not get the credit. The Dems storm out of critical meetings for the dumbest of reasons (like hurt feelings). And the Democrats leak like a sieve if they can damage Trump. We see it every day.
So it is no stretch to assume that, had Trump advised them of the pending raid, it would almost certainly have leaked out, al-Baghdadi would have fled, and Trump would have no victory.
That is not a "conspiracy theory". We can see with our own eyes (if we OPEN our eyes) that the Democrats are already doing whatever it takes to damage the President. They even break laws and jeopardize national security. In fact, that is precisely why Durham was able to turn his investigation into a criminal investigation and is preparing to indict some big-wigs on the left.
Nope! I would not tell any D.C. Democrat anything!

Hillary in 2020? Don't Discount It
On March 26, 2019 I posted the following blog:
https://bill-is-watching.blogspot.com/2019/03/if-she-runs-why-hillary-could-easily.html
In that blog I stated, "Anyone who discounts the real possibility of a second Trump-Hillary match-up would be making a mistake." And I was nearly laughed out of the blogosphere. But suddenly, all the late-to-the-party pundits are now trying to reincarnate her campaign as they fear a landslide for Trump with the current field of Democrat contenders.
But can she win?
Well, she can raise the money. And she is still a powerful force, at least in the media. And she could reconstitute her campaign staff in a heartbeat. Most important, she likely learned something about how and why she lost last time and will not repeat those mistakes. So, yes, it is possible.
But is it likely she would win?
No. Too much baggage. She made too many mistakes out of arrogance. She has alienated half the country. The states she ignored last time may not be very forgiving. And the current field, along with the "squad" and a complicit media have taken the Democrat party far to the left, and it is unlikely Hillary can convince them she is their ticket. Those voters will likely stay home.
But most important, she is no match for Donald Trump. She cannot simply erase all the great things he has done - lowest unemployment rate in history; best economy in many decades; getting better trade deals; taking on China; prison reform - the list goes on.
Hillary, if you are listening, go spend time with your grandkids, or take a long walk in the woods...

Why Pelosi & Schiff will NOT Impeach Trump
To hear the network news, cable news, the print media and all the other pundits, the Democrats are preparing to impeach President Trump. But if a reasoning, thinking person were to study what is going on, and connect the dots, they would likely come to the conclusion that, with very few radical exceptions like "The Squad", there is no way on God's green Earth that the Democrats intend to impeach Trump.
First and foremost, they know how to read, and therefore know there is no cause for impeachment in Trump's call with Zelensky. That call is nothing more than an excuse for the Democrats to hold secret hearings and to issue 2200 subpoenas, all for the sole purpose of using taxpayer money to do their opposition research for 2020 (which is illegal), and if some witness does utter a phrase they can take out of context to shave independent voters away from Trump, that is a bonus. And that is precisely why the hearings are secret and Republicans are excluded.
Second, the so-called "whistleblower". We now know that the whistleblower contacted the Schiff team before filing any complaint at all. This suggests that Schiff and/or his staff may have helped craft the phony complaint - we know it is phony because it does not even come close to accurately depicting the phone call.
Then Schiff states publicly that they will call the whistleblower in to testify - to what, no one knows, since Trump already released the full transcript that blew the whistleblower's complaint to Kingdom Come. But now, suddenly, Schiff says they won't be calling for the whistleblower's testimony after all "because it is not needed". That simply does not fit, unless...
It fits perfectly if Schiff realizes that the whistleblower's testimony could/would incriminate Schiff as having helped craft the phony complaint, like he crafted the phony "parody" at the original hearing, or that the testimony would further threaten the deep state, already on the verge of imploding. In fact, it just might come out that the entire whistleblower scandal was the brainchild of Schiff, because he believed there was zero chance Trump would release the transcript. Why else would Schiff suddenly declare they do not need the testimony of their star witness - the one person who STARTED all this?
Finally, and a very real reason to avoid impeachment, the Democrats know that if they do impeach, it MUST then go to the Senate for trial - a Republican controlled Senate that would never convict when there is no evidence of any crime - and they would certainly subpoena the whistleblower, as well as all the "secret" testimony transcripts the Democrats are hiding. And that could put several prominent Democrats and deep state bureaucrats in prison for treason if it comes out that they created a phony whistleblower for the express purpose of pulling off a coup against a duly elected President.
Of course, Democrats would call this a "right-wing conspiracy theory". But nothing they are claiming in their "inquiry" fits the facts, and this theory connects all the dots perfectly.
Sometimes, there really IS a conspiracy...

The Destruction of Democracy in America
The only way to destroy our democracy is to severely damage the institutions of democracy. Who has been systematically doing that? Who is responsible for destroying the credibility of the FBI by abusing their power to take down a duly elected president? Who usurped the confirmation process by resisting at any cost any nominee that a president appoints, even to the point of setting up phony charges (as in Kavanaugh) and denying him the Constitutional Right of due process? And who is it that is upending the impeachment process by not following the rules, and denying due process to the President and his administration, holding secret meetings and hearings in private, without any Republicans even allowed to sit in?
Just exactly which institutions has Trump damaged? Only the biased media intent on ousting him from office, no matter what lies they have to propagate. And a corrupt media is damaging to our democracy, and have been corrupted by democrats (or vice versa?) seeking power.
When democrats and their henchmen in the media tell us that it is Trump who is destroying the democracy, they are projecting themselves. They destroy, then tell the public, "Look at the damage Trump is doing!"
Trump's actions are not destroying our institutions - he is trying to REPAIR them, to force them to once again serve the people, rather than themselves. In their quest for unlimited power, the left is willing to completely destroy anything and anyone. Trump does not need power - he already has it. And the left wants to take it from him.
The left does not want a fair and balanced media. The left wants to be able to use the unfettered power of government - the FBI, CIA, IRS - to push their agenda at all costs, even if it harms the citizenry, or even destroys our democracy. They want only radicals to be appointed to positions of power - no Kavanaughs, no one who will keep the left from achieving their goals, even if it means violating the Constitution.
The Constitution provides for due process, the right to bear arms, religious freedom without government intervention, free speech and due process. It is only the left that is systematically diluting those rights, with the intent of eventually removing them altogether. And the reason is simple - those are precisely the rights and values that prevent the left from taking over and imposing their will over the citizens of this nation. It's all about control - complete control.
If their government runs health care - making your life and death decisions for you - they control you. If they get you addicted to welfare, or drugs, or anything at all, they control you through your addiction. If they remove Christianity from the public sphere, and destroy the effectiveness of law enforcement (which the left is now doing) they open the door to unparalleled sin - Sodom and Gomorrah - which only serves to add to their power. After all, if you are allowed to do whatever you want without consequence, you will keep those in power who have made that possible. And if any sane, moral and patriotic citizens object? No matter - the left will have taken their guns, so they cannot fight back.

Is CA Intentionally Driving Out the Middle Class?
California has long been known as the land of sun and fun. But while the sun still shines, the fun is quickly fading for the millions of middle class citizens who are over-burdened with taxes, regulations and their elected officials tearing down law enforcement. And now the middle class is leaving California in droves, driven out by the elitist progressives who hold the state in a tight stranglehold.
The question is - why? Why are officials Hell-bent on pushing an agenda that drives out the middle class?
The answer - the middle class is a stumbling block in the way of those who want to make California a "purist" enclave for elitist far-left radicals intent on pushing all of America farther and farther to the left. Celebrities, politicians, tech companies and the wealthy. They want a socialist state in which they are in total control.
But why, then, does California embrace the poor, the homeless and the illegal immigrants? Simply put, by providing the freebies and sanctuary for those who have NO power they insure their own power. Those receiving the entitlements will never bite the hand that feeds them, ensuring that the powerful remain so. They cannot destroy democracy, so they simply make it irrelevant.
The next question - where will the tax revenues come from once the middle class is gone? The answer - the wealthy elitists believe they can afford to pick up the slack, and are willing to do so if it puts them in total control.
The middle class, however, does vote, and could eventually rally and cause an uprising against the elitists, threatening their progressive agenda. So, the middle class must be driven out. And once they are gone, or have been marginalized to the point of insignificance, those elitists will be the all-powerful wizards of Oz, unfettered by any opposition.
If you doubt any of this, just remember what governor Cuomo of New York said in his 2014 message for conservative Republicans — "you don’t belong in New York. " The vast majority of the middle class in New York are Republican - the "silent majority".

Impeachment Inquiry - Why Pelosi Hasn't Called For a Vote
What theater! Nancy Pelosi keeps telling us we are having a "formal inquiry" into impeachment, but that is a lie. A formal inquiry requires that the House vote on it, and that is the last thing Pelosi wants, and here's why...
As soon as there is a vote on impeachment, the Republicans then get to subpoena witnesses and have them testify. They can finally present THEIR case - the side that Democrats do not want coming to light. The Democrats will stop at nothing - NOTHING - to push their dishonest agenda.
What Pelosi is doing is not just wrong - it is dishonest and undemocratic - and that makes it un-American, and not patriotic as she tries to claim.

Democrats in Massive Cover-up Mode
Despite Democrats trying to claim that the impeachment push and their many "investigations" are not political and are for the purpose of protecting America from corruption, the opposite is actually true. All of the efforts of the Democrats in D.C., and most of the media is designed for one purpose only - to cover up their corrupting of our democracy.
Unelected Obama-era CIA, DOJ and the State Department personnel have created a vicious and powerful "Deep State" that is, in and of itself, a silent coup. The evidence has been substantiated by investigative reporters like John Solomon and Sara Carter. But most Americans will never know, because the mainstream media like the New York Times, CNN, Google, Yahoo and Twitter are also run by the radical left, and they refuse to tell the truth - and as we have seen over and over, they often resort to fake news - outright lies.
They have been manipulating America for years, using their vast power and resources to run things by keeping citizens uninformed and by using propaganda to convince the people that all is well - just "sit back, shut up and do what you are told."
But with Trump in the Oval Office and Barr as AG, and with the Durham report coming out soon, the Democrats, the media and the deep state are scared to death - it could all unravel. America might actually get a look behind the curtain, to see a little, hateful, power-mad wizard pulling all the strings. They cannot allow that to happen - decades of building their authoritarian society, since the liberal revolution of the '60's is about to be rendered into mash, if Trump and Republicans have their way.
Decades of taking over the media and our educational system was on the verge of giving the radical left complete control of the country, now in jeopardy as Trump attempts to drain the swamp.
The impeachment and untold investigations are a smokescreen, to cover up what they have been doing.
If anyone doubts this, just look at the insane positions they are suddenly taking, designed to destroy, not build. Support of terrorists like Antifa. Refusing to support (and even hand-cuffing) law enforcement. Support of violent protests. Pushing late term and even after birth abortions. Fighting for open borders and taxpayer funding for health care and education for illegal aliens. Sanctuary cities that allow non-citizen criminals to terrorize the population, unchecked. Banning everything, and ignoring Constitutional rights of free speech, religion, association, and even due process. Even their refusal to look into the REAL scandals, like the Biden-Ukraine debacle or the Hillary Clinton crimes of destroying emails for which there was a subpoena. Or the apparent "pay-for-play" scam known as the Clinton Foundation.
The Democrats in D.C., with the help of their handlers in the media and the useful idiots in our educational institutions have been openly destroying the very fabric of our Republic, all while telling the people that such changes are "social justice".
But now they are scared of being outed for the corrupt anti-democracy bunch that they are. In desperation they are turning up the heat, trying to create a smokescreen and to derail efforts to drain that swamp.
Republicans, led by Trump, are draining the swamp. And the swamp creatures are fighting back.
