ObamaGate is Only the Beginning...

-
Former President Barack Obama has claimed that his administration persisted without a major scandal, which is markedly different from many past presidents. What he failed to realize was that the American people would soon find out that he led a coup d'etat against a duly elected president: Donald J. Trump.  The clip below from Watters' World on Fox News set off a firestorm of people on social media who spread the hashtag #obamagate. It reached #1 in "Trending" on Twitter with hundreds of thousands of tweets. Jesse Watters carefully explains what seems to have happened at an Oval Office meeting on January 5th, 2017. It is clear that Obama was directly involved in the Russian Collusion Delusion. Obama also targeted General Mike Flynn in this meeting and discussed using the Logan Act against him.  Stay tuned to the Trumplican Party social media, which will be sharing exclusive updates on this developing story.

Trump's Troop Withdrawal: The Making of a Republic?

-
On December 19, 2018, President Trump announced on Twitter that he would begin withdrawing US troops from Syria.  This decision, which was reportedly made by the President, drew criticism from both sides.

Ron Paul brought a new perspective into this debate on CNN.  Ron Paul, a libertarian and the father of Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, discussed the larger role of America in the world and connected it to President's Trump recent decision to withdraw troops from Syria.  I think that Paul is reasonable when he makes the distinction between an empire and a republic.  Right now, America essentially has an extensive militant empire around the world.  We have been entangled in the conflict in the Middle East for over a decade and have lost thousands of American soldiers.

Though Paul favors the idea of America as a republic rather than an empire, he simply begins the conversation around this topic in the interview above.  According to Paul, the Constitution has designed America as a republic, thus, the President's decision to withdraw troops is in good faith and is in accordance with the Constitution.

Though the ideas of Ron Paul resonate with me, there are some important clarifications to make regarding his take on the situation.  If we pull troops out of the Middle East, there is a possibility that terrorist groups strengthen again and begin to take back land that US forces captured in years prior.  America strictly as a republic may also turn a blind eye to human rights violations around the world because of this isolationist ideology.

In the coming years, Americans should keep in mind one question about America's role in the world. Is America really an empire or a republic?

Stacey Abrams Clawing to Be Biden's VP

Stacey Abrams, the Georgia Democrat that lost the Governor's race to Brian Kemp (R), is now garnering media attention for her comments about being Candidate Biden's running mate. Last month, Biden promised to nominate a female running mate according to the Washington Post . Therefore, he is engaging in the left's typical identity politics games. Joe Biden has made clear that he won't be choosing the most qualified VP, but actually the one that would give him the most progressive identity points. Courtesy of the LA Times Abrams told Elle Magazine : "I would be an excellent running mate...If I am selected, I am prepared and excited to serve." The main problem for Abrams is her lack of experience. Since Biden is aging quickly, his VP must be ready to lead the nation if he cannot do it if he's elected. Though Abrams sounds great for Democrats because she is a black woman from a Southern swing state, she is not the best choice. According to a Free Be...
