Apparently, I haven’t said anything about the political landscape since October 28th. Amazing, I know. Right? Yeah. Well, we have a situation. Not the situation. But a special situation.
Congress has referred to the Department of Justice a criminal referral for the ex-President (“I’m still President!”) Trump for, among other things Insurrection.
This will create an interesting situation because in a few days the House of Representatives will change hands and the Republican Party will be in charge. What will they do with their new found power? Last time they were in charge every committee they were in charge of decided to investigate what happened in Ben Ghazi and how was Hillary Clinton implicated in the deaths of several diplomats. They knew the facts before the first gavel was struck. They also knew that the underlying reason for the deaths was due to their cutting the funding for security, but they ignored that and they tried to twist the facts and the truth. Imagine what they will do this time?
Many are anticipating they will issue subpoenas. For what? you ask. Why for Hunter Biden of course. Okay. He’s an easy target. He has had all sorts of problems. Addiction for one. Plus, he was hired by the Ukrainian gas company Gasprom when it was controlled by Putin’s stooge. The stooge had the very important job of skimming 30% off the top of any gas that was shipped. Skimmed probably isn’t the right term – added to, would be more accurate. So what did Gasprom do to clean up their image? They hired Hunter Biden, because he was closest they could get to the then Vice-President Biden, who had been pushing to get the corruption out of Ukraine’s politics and their gas company. The Republicans were outraged. They did ignore that many of their sibs had been hired in similar instances by other companies trying to clean up their images. Just like they ignored the fact that they had used private email servers for which they accused Hillary Clinton of such sacrilege.
The Jan 6th Committee also pointed out that several Republican members of the House had refused to comply with their Congressional subpoenas. Those members had been referred to the House Ethics Committee. I wonder what the new committee’s subpoenas will be handled if they are ignored?
So much to contemplate. Until he is cuffed, charged, found guilty and put behind bars …

I think it strange that Hunter Biden was involved with The Ukraine. Then all of a sudden Putin attacks The Ukraine. Shortly after Trump was finally booted out. There is something more going on with the Ukraine than we know about or probably never know about.
