It’s Tuesday.

Day 63 of the Impeachment Inquiry has arrived.

It’s Thanksgiving Eve-Eve.

Tuesday morning saw the capital placed on lock-down.

The lock-down was lifted about 20 minutes later.

The President has tweeted so far 7 times and retweeted 6 times.

Warfighters =’s U.S. Military personal.

The New York Times reported on the 15th of November that President Trump pardoned three members of the armed services, “who have been accused or convicted of war crimes, overruling military leaders who had sought to punish them.”

  • Full pardon: Clint Lorance who was serving 19 years for killing two civilians.
  • Full pardon: Maj. Mathew Golsteyn with Army Special Forces, who was facing murder charges for killing an unarmed Afghan that Golsteyn believed was a Taliban bomb maker.
  • Reversed Demotion: Chief Petty Officer Edward “Eddie” Gallagher, who was acquitted on murder charges but convicted on a lesser offense of posing for a picture with a dead combatant’s body.

Following the pardon of Gallagher it was reported that the Navy intended to review the case to determine if Gallagher would be kicked out of the Navy SEALS.

The President weighed in via Twitter last week.

On Sunday President Trump tweeted that he was not pleased with the Navy’s handling of the Gallagher case and as a result he directed Secretary of Defense Mark Esper to fire Navy Secretary Richard Spencer.

On Monday CBS News reported that Spenser was fired before “he could resign over the president’s decision to intervene in an internal review of a Navy SEAL convicted of posing with the corpse, and downplayed a supposed backchannel offer to the White House that served as the justification for his ouster.”

Esper spoke with reporters about the firing and said that he lost trusted in Spencer following an alleged deal that Spencer was working on with that White House to allowed Gallagher to simply retire and keep his Trident Pin.

Spencer told CBS News that “he spoke with White House counsel Pat Cipollone on November 15 and proposed an arrangement in which Gallagher would be allowed to retire as a SEAL if the president agreed not to intervene in the case and “let the Navy do its administrative work.” Spencer said Cipollone called back the same day to decline the offer, saying the president would be involved.”

Spencer went on to say that he had not spoken with Esper about the deal he offered, “I will take the bad on me, for not letting him know I did that.”

On Tuesday USA TODAY reported that Gallagher will retire from the Navy, the review of his case has been cancelled.

“He will retire from active duty,” Navy Cdr. Clay Doss said in a statement. “We will not provide additional details due to privacy concerns.”
The announcement marked the formal end of the review, which could have led to Gallagher’s expulsion from the elite special operations SEAL group, after Trump issued an order to Defense Secretary Mark Esper that Gallagher be allowed to keep his Trident pin symbolizing his SEAL membership.

Not building a wall =’s no new wall, the wall itself might be “new,” but the location of the wall is the same as the torn down replaced wall. The President has not overseen the building of new miles of border wall aka border fence.

I am fighting for future Presidents and the Office of the President.

To have no oversight and zero accountability.

As a reminder as the News Blender covered the Department of Justice argued in October before the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, that the President could not even be investigated if he shot someone on 5th Ave.

According to the Mueller Report, then-White House counsel Don McGahn told Mueller’s investigating team that the President had directed him to fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller. McGhan declined.

John Bolton is a patriot and may know that I held back the money from Ukraine because it is considered a corrupt country, & I wanted to know why nearby European countries weren’t putting up money also.

In September Fact Check.org reported that the U.S. is not the majority contributor of total official developmental assistance to the Ukraine.

According to the OECD between 2016-2017 the U.S. was the second largest contributor.

future Presidents should in no way be compromised. What has happened to me should never happen to another President!

Again he is suggesting that a President is both above the law and Congressional Oversight which would make a President = to a King. I might be wrong, but I’m certain our founding fathers would not approve this message.

On Monday the long awaited ruling on whether or not White House officials had “absolute immunity,” from honoring a Congressional subpoena was released.

According to the ruling by Judge Ketnaji Brown Jackson “Presidents are not kings,” she added that President’s do not have subjects and that it is indisputable that current and former White House officials work for the People of the United States.
