Trump Issues Sweeping Pardons For A MURDERER and other criminals

 

Trump pardons US contractors convicted in Iraq massacre

 

Trump pardons 15, including 4 Blackwater defendants who killed 14 innocent, unarmed Iraqis.

Donald Trump grants 15 pardons: he pardoned Republican Congressman Chris Collins who committed financial crimes/insider trading, Republican Congressman Duncan Hunter who stole campaign money from his supporters, he pardoned George Papadopoulos who lied to the FBI about contacts with Russians.

But worst of all, he pardoned the four Blackwater contractors who slaughtered 14 innocent, unarmed Iraqi men and women and injured 17 others. My former office, the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia, prosecuted those four defendant three times, trying to bring justice to the dozens of Iraqi citizens and their surviving family members. Trump’s pardons of these murderers is a horrific affront to victims rights the world over.

Former associate of Rudy Giuliani, Les Parnas discusses the corrupt & illegal pressure Trump put on Ukraine President Zelensky to announce an investigation of Joe Biden in exchange for Military Aid which was already approved by congress.

 

Description from YouTube; “Operating as Trump’s personal lawyer, Giuliani wove a complex web of misinformation involving Ukrainian tycoons and prosecutors, diplomats and hustlers, laying the groundwork for just the third impeachment trial in U.S. history.

Along with his associates Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, Giuliani worked to get rid of Marie Yovanovitch, the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine at the time and a champion of the anti-corruption movement. He also pushed for Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden and his son, just as the former vice president announced he was challenging Trump in 2020. As Giuliani waged his shadow pressure campaign, the Trump administration withheld millions of dollars in military aid to Ukraine and denied its new president an urgently sought White House meeting”.

 

Trump Fires Four Inspectors General In Two Months

Retaliation Against Lieutenant Col Vindman

Lt. Col. Alexander S. Vindman, a decorated Iraq war veteran who served on the staff of the White House’s National Security Council, is among scores of officers who have been picked to be promoted to full colonel this year. Typically, such promotions are backed by Army and Pentagon officials before moving to the White House for final approval and then to the Senate for a confirmation vote.

In his role as a Ukraine expert on the council, Colonel Vindman was on Mr. Trump’s phone call on July 25 with Ukraine’s president that later led to the impeachment inquiry. Colonel Vindman testified in the House impeachment hearings that it was “improper for the president” to coerce a foreign country to investigate a political opponent.

Some Pentagon officials say that White House aides have signaled their desire to have Colonel Vindman’s name dropped from the promotion list before it is forwarded to the White House. When Colonel Vindman was dismissed from his National Security Council staff position shortly after the Senate acquitted Mr. Trump, the White House made no effort to portray the ouster as anything other than a reprisal.

 

Trump Acts Like He’s a King

 

Trump Is Removing Everyone Who Can Hold Him Accountable

 

Trump’s systematic and lawless firing of multiple agency’s Inspectors General who are there to reign in corruption and hold our leaders and government accountable. The rampant corruption and coverup go much deeper.

 

Trump Fires Inspector General Investigating Pompeo

Trump has fired many Inspectors General: Michael Atkinson, Glenn Fine and now, Steven Linick. Inspectors General investigate wrongdoing by government officials. Trump uses the excuse that he “loses confidence” in these Inspector Generals so he fires them. OF COURSE he loses confidence in them – they are trying to investigate and expose his wrongdoing. It would be like a criminal saying he’s losing confidence in the cop that’s investigating him.

Trump takes a page from dictators’ playbook by firing inspectors general

Covering Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, North Las Vegas, and Boulder City, the Las Vegas Sun provides breaking news, in-depth analysis, video, and press releases from around the valley.

Per the above article; “Day by day, layer by layer, President Donald Trump tears away at the barriers preventing him from destroying our democracy and gaining dictatorial control over our nation.

• The president fires Michael Atkinson, inspector general of the intelligence community, for alerting Congress last fall to a whistleblower complaint over Trump’s attempt to extort political favors from Ukraine.
• Trump smears another watchdog, Health and Human Services deputy inspector general Christi Grimm, over an HHS report critical of the administration’s response to the coronavirus epidemic. Trump incorrectly characterizes Grimm as an Obama appointee — she’s actually served both Republican and Democratic presidents since becoming a federal official in 1999 — and suggests she can’t be trusted. It’s a tactic he’s used to hound several federal government employees out of their jobs, essentially serving them up for attacks from right-wing media and other extremists.
• Trump removes the chairman of the panel established by Congress to oversee his administration’s management of the coronavirus stimulus package. Trump replaces the chairman, Glenn Fine, with a Trump nominee.

All three of these developments have one thing in common: Trump was undercutting offices that hold the executive branch accountable and play a critical role in ensuring that the separation of powers remains firmly in place.

In other words, Trump was attacking the front-line troops guarding against the president seizing absolute control of power.

This came on the heels of another dictatorial move by the administration — its attempt to corrupt the Defense Department through the unwarranted ouster of U.S. Navy Capt. Brett Crozier.

A military that holds to the highest standards its oath to support and defend the Constitution is now under fervent assault by Trump in another display of his totalitarian ambitions. He wishes to have “his generals” not be a rhetorical but a literal term, in the manner of North Korea’s Kim Jong Un or Russia’s Vladimir Putin.

And the Republican Party is silent as this happens. Removing independent oversight, trying to pervert the military, actively suppressing the right to vote, defying the separations of powers and undermining an independent judiciary — all of it happens with Republicans’ tacit approval.”

 

Foreign gifts not reported by Trump administration

 

Witnesses left scattered in wake of Trump impeachment scandal

 

 

Trump fired director of National Intelligence Director Joseph Maguire for allowing the House Intelligence Committee to Informed about Russia’s Plans to Interfere in the 2020 Election

Trump was angered that Maguire allowed Pierson to brief members of the House Intelligence Committee on what officials at the three agencies assess is an ongoing Russian effort to meddle in the 2020 presidential election in an effort to help Trump.

It appears that Trump firing Maguire for this, then he hired a sycophant is to prevent any further disclosures to congress and the American people learning about any more interference in the 2020 election which may benefit Trump. This is classic anti-democratic, authoritarian, Banana Republic Dictator behavior, and the only reason Trump is getting away with it it because congressional Republicans failed to do their job and remove this “Putin Puppet” from office.

The Russians are also meddling in Congressional races, aiding some Republican candidates and targeting some Democratic ones, the officials say. “The Russians understand our system, and they know that the President needs the Senate to remain in friendly hands in order to carry out his agenda,” one of the officials said.

More retribution by a LAWLESS, Out of Control “President”… Trump fired the inspector general for the intelligence community, who had served since May 2018. He was the first to alert Congress last year of an “urgent” whistleblower complaint he obtained from an intelligence official regarding Trump’s dealings with Ukraine.

This is the behavior of a Wanna-Be Dictator, who Republicans has enabled by failing to vote to Impeach and Remove from office.

https://hillreporter.com/renowned-phycologist-like-hitler-trump-suffers-from-sadism-malignant-narcissism-paranoia-22815

TITLE FROM ARTICLE: Renowned Psychologist : Like Hitler, Trump suffers from Sadism, Malignant Narcissism & Paranoia

Per the article above; “Renowned Psychologist Dr. John Gartner, who specializes in borderline personality disorder, biopolar disorder, and depression stated; Trump has the most dangerous form of mental illness that you can find in a leader… Malignant Narcissism.

Gartner stated that Malignant narcissism is a combination of 4 traits, which includes narcissism, paranoia, antisocial personality disorder (the psychology of a criminal and someone who routinely lies) and sadism.

The sadist aspects of Trump’s apparent mental illness, according is Gartner, means that “he is driven and gets intense pleasure from harming, humiliating, and degrading other people.”

“He has actually gotten intense pleasure from [other people’s] pain. He is reveling in the chaos and the destruction he is causing,” Gartner explained. “The more he feels threatened by the Mueller investigation, the more he needs to experience the exaltation of feeling drunk with power, through his ability to harm and humiliate and degrade other people.”

While Gartner stopped short of saying that Trump is the next incarnation of Hitler, he did emphasize the importance of looking back at history as a means to try and prevent the catastrophes of the past from happening yet again.

In speaking of Trump, Gartner did not imply that Trump would follow in the path of Hitler, but he did underscore his belief that “these are the kind of people who really can commit genocide,” when comparing the two men.

“I’m not saying he’s Hitler. I’m saying he has the same psychology. He’s of the same type, cut from the same cloth…. He is someone, who if given the chance, would enact that same kind of destructive agenda”.

“Gartner accentuated his observations that Trump is demonizing immigrants similarly to how Hitler”
