Republicans are Lawless and Corrupt
Videos show how today’s Republicans are Lawless and Corrupt Liars who will do and say anything to seize and maintain power with no regard for the truth, the rule of law, the constitution, democracy or decency.
GOP Culture of Corruption
A video trip down memory lane shows how Trump Republicans of 2020 are as lawless as Nixon Republicans from 1972
The Corruption of the Republican Party
The GOP is best understood as an insurgency that carried the seeds of its own corruption from the start.
Per the above article; “Why has the Republican Party become so thoroughly corrupt? The reason is historical—it goes back many decades—and, in a way, philosophical. The party is best understood as an insurgency that carried the seeds of its own corruption from the start”.
“The corruption I mean has less to do with individual perfidy than institutional depravity. It isn’t an occasional failure to uphold norms, but a consistent repudiation of them. It isn’t about dirty money so much as the pursuit and abuse of power—power as an end in itself, justifying almost any means. Political corruption usually trails financial scandals in its wake—the foam is scummy with self-dealing—but it’s far more dangerous than graft. There are legal remedies for Duncan Hunter, a representative from California, who will stand trial next year for using campaign funds to pay for family luxuries.* But there’s no obvious remedy for what the state legislatures of Wisconsin and Michigan, following the example of North Carolina in 2016, are now doing”.
“Republican majorities are rushing to pass laws that strip away the legitimate powers of newly elected Democratic governors while defeated or outgoing Republican incumbents are still around to sign the bills. Even if the courts overturn some of these power grabs, as they have in North Carolina, Republicans will remain securely entrenched in the legislative majority through their own hyper-gerrymandering—in Wisconsin last month, 54 percent of the total votes cast for major-party candidates gave Democrats just 36 of 99 assembly seats—so they will go on passing laws to thwart election results. Nothing can stop these abuses short of an electoral landslide. In Wisconsin, a purple state, that means close to 60 percent of the total vote”.
The fact that no plausible election outcome can check the abuse of power is what makes political corruption so dangerous. It strikes at the heart of democracy. It destroys the compact between the people and the government. In rendering voters voiceless, it pushes everyone closer to the use of undemocratic means.
“Today’s Republican Party has cornered itself with a base of ever older, whiter, more male, more rural, more conservative voters. Demography can take a long time to change—longer than in progressives’ dreams—but it isn’t on the Republicans’ side. They could have tried to expand; instead, they’ve hardened and walled themselves off. This is why, while voter fraud knows no party, only the Republican Party wildly overstates the risk so that it can pass laws (including right now in Wisconsin, with a bill that reduces early voting) to limit the franchise in ways that have a disparate partisan impact. This is why, when some Democrats in the New Jersey legislature proposed to enshrine gerrymandering in the state constitution, other Democrats, in New Jersey and around the country, objected”.
“Taking away democratic rights—extreme gerrymandering; blocking an elected president from nominating a Supreme Court justice; selectively paring voting rolls and polling places; creating spurious anti-fraud commissions; misusing the census to undercount the opposition; calling lame-duck legislative sessions to pass laws against the will of the voters—is the Republican Party’s main political strategy, and will be for years to come”.

October 19, 2023 – “Powell pleaded guilty to six misdemeanor counts of conspiracy to commit election interference in Fulton County Georgia Superior Court as part of a deal reached with prosecutors.
Powell agreed to serve six years of probation and pay a $6,000 fine and $2,700 in restitution to the state of Georgia. She also agreed to submit an apology letter to the citizens of Georgia and to testify at related court proceedings.
Powell was one of 19 defendants named in District Attorney Fani Willis’ indictment, which also charged former President Donald Trump.
Powell, who acted as one of Trump’s lawyers after his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden, was charged with racketeering, conspiracy to commit election fraud, conspiracy to commit computer theft, trespassing and invasion of privacy, and conspiracy to defraud the state.
Powell was among the Trump allies who had pushed conspiracy theories about voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election. At a White House meeting in December 2020, Trump discussed the idea of naming Powell as a special counsel to investigate voter fraud”.

This violent coup was the final act committed by the most Lawless and Corrupt administration in American History.

Lawrence O’Donnell says just hours after the Capitol was attacked on Wednesday, 147 Republican members of Congress continued to attack the Constitution.

Republicans knew Trump was unfit to be President, yet all have caved, kowtowed and supported him, putting their own political careers over doing what’s best for our country
Republicans such as Marco Rubio who is today calling the Trump Guilty Verdict a ‘complete travesty‘, in 2016 called Trump a ‘Con Artist‘ who’s ‘been exploiting working Americans for 40 years’. Ted Cruz called Trump a ‘Pathological Liar who doesn’t know the difference between truth and lies. He lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth’ & ‘a narcissist at a level I don’t think this country’s ever seen’.

How Republicans Trade Dignity To Stay In Party Of Trump
REPUBLICAN Kevin McCarthy is not only UNFIT to be Unfit to be Speaker of the House, he should have been ARRESTED for obstructing a congressional investigation by making threats to intimidate phone and social media companies that cooperated with the House select committee which investigated the Capitol riot.
The House Select Committee requested phone records from telecommunications companies as part of its investigation. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy told the telecommunications companies not to comply with the Congressional requests and threatened that if they did, the GOP “would not forget it” once they are in power. This is a brazen act of obstructing a congressional investigation. The Department of Justice must address this promptly or else there likely will be more obstructive conduct by McCarty and perhaps others.
The law regarding Obstruction of Justice and Witness Intimation is clear;
1725. Protection Of Government Processes – Obstruction Of Pending Proceeding – 18 U.S.C. 1505 |
“Section 1505 of Title 18, United States Code, as amended by the Victim and Witness Protection Act of 1982, forbids anyone from corruptly, or by threats of force or by any threatening communication, influencing, obstructing, or impeding any pending proceeding before a department or agency of the United States, or Congress. In 1996 Congress enacted a clarifying amendment to 18 U.S.C. § 1515, which defines the term “corruptly” as used in section 1505 to mean “acting with an improper purpose, personally or by influencing another, including making a false or misleading statement, or withholding, concealing, altering, or destroying a document or other information.” False Statements Accountability Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-292, §3, 110 Stat. 3459, 3460.
Kevin McCarthy is a Partisan Hack who consistently put his own political career & party above our country. He proved to be LAWLESS by failing to vote to impeach Trump twice for Abuse of Power and then Insurrection, voted to overturn the 2020 election and make Trump an UN-elected Dictator, failed to hold Marjorie Taylor Greene accountable for her outrageous conduct, the Benghazi Witch Hunt & other issues.

The Big Lie and the Big Liar
Based on new Washington Post reporting today we’ve learned that “The Big Lie” was actually cooked up two years ago by a Republican political dirty trickster as a way to cast aside the will of the American voters and corruptly keep Donald Trump in power.
The Republicans are insisting that all party members adhere to The Big Lie and pledge allegiance to The Big Liar or face ouster. This is yet another reason Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice must move toward charging Donald Trump for his crimes.

Republicans Threaten Violence in the Streets if Trump is Indicted for His Crimes
REPUBLICAN Trump issued nearly 150 corrupt pardons and commutations at the end of his disastrous presidency… some as rewards to his own staff who broke the law.

Why Aren’t Republicans Chanting ‘Lock Him Up” Over Document Destruction?
In light of Trump’s ‘document destruction,’ writer Kurt Bardella wonders why Republicans aren’t chanting ‘Lock Him Up’ and calling for hearings with anyone who was part of the Trump White House.
Out of the 50+ bogus lawsuits filed by Trump and his attorneys, no CREDIBLE voter fraud was found which could have changed the outcome of the election. This was also verified by Attorney General William Barr, who was a Trump loyalist.
The above video shows former Deputy Attorney General Donald Ayer delivering his opening remarks to the congressional committee, with damming testimony of lawless conduct by Attorney General William Barr and Trump. When Ayer exceeded the five minutes allotted for his opening statement, Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, began loudly tapping his desk to drown out Ayer’s testimony.
Louie Gohmert and Republicans has proven to be lawless traitors who doesn’t care about Trump and Barr’s lawless behavior, their violations of the constitution, and democracy being destroyed.

Dick Cheney is RIGHT
For telling the truth, voting to impeach Trump for inciting an insurrection & violence, being part of the January 6 Select Committee which investigated and exposed Trump’s crimes to the world, REPUBLICANS proved how LAWLESS & CORRUPT they are by removing Liz Cheney from her leadership position in Congress and ultimately voting her out of office.
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) is standing up for facts while a large part of her colleagues in the House GOP are still pushing conspiracies and lies because they are afraid of telling the truth to their constituents.

GOP Leadership Traded Rule Of Law For Political Power
Award-winning filmmaker Michael Kirk sits down with host Ali Velshi to discuss his new investigative film, “Lies, Politics and Democracy.” FRONTLINE kicks off its new season on September 6th with a special premiere of the powerful new film investigating Trump’s influence on the Republican Party and the mounting threats to American democracy. The two hour special features interviews with renowned scholars, journalists and key figures in the conservative movement who sounded the alarm about the dangers of acquiescing to Trump’s authoritarian bent. These experts argue that the Republican leadership sold the party’s values in return for political wins even as the twice-impeached president incited the worst elements of the far-right. “The calculation they’ve made is if they want to get reelected, they have to sign on with Donald Trump– even in the face of their own knowledge that the Big Lie is a big lie,” Kirk tells Velshi.
Executive Director of Stand Up Republic, Evan McMullin calls the Republican Party: ‘Rotten To The Core’

Former Republican David Jolly unleashes on the ‘rotten to the core’ politicians of the GOP
These are, in today’s Republican party, spineless politicians rotten to the core without virtue, without any level of human integrity, devoid of self respect, self reflection…Without courage and without the moral compass to recognize their own malevolence.’
GOP Operatives Charged Over Russian’s Donation To Trump

The REPUBLICAN party has NOTHING to offer except LIES, Divisive Social Issues, taking away Women’s Rights,Cutting / Eliminating Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, giving Tax Breaks to the RICH. Attacking / Demonizing LGBT’s, Rigging Elections by Gerrymandering, Voter Obstruction and other anti-democratic tactics to prevent people from voting who aren’t likely to vote for them.
Republicans must lie to survive: They have no other choice
From Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump, the path to Republican political success is rooted in profound deception
Republicans Must Lie to Survive: They have No Other Choice
Per the above article; “The GOP exists to serve the interests of the wealthy and big business that comprise the richest 1%. No party, however, can ever win an election with only 1% of the vote. So to win elections, the GOP must necessarily reach beyond its own wealthy core and attempt to convince a large segment of working people in the 99% to vote for Republicans.
Normally, a political party wins elections by offering policies that benefit the voters. These policies attract the voters who then cast their votes for the political party.
But for the Republican Party, this is not an option. A candidate could not possibly campaign on the policies favored by the 1%. Just imagine the stump speech. “Vote for me and I will slash your health care! In fact, I’ll do even better — I’ll fight like mad to completely eliminate your health care!”
“Vote for me and I will get rid of your pensions! This would save corporations a bundle and boost profits to the shareholders! Screw the workers!”
“Vote for me and I promise to ship your jobs overseas under globalization! The exact same labor can be hired in Asia for only pennies! Hurray!”
The Republican Party is left with only one option. It cannot possibly be honest about its true intentions and actual policies. The working class would never vote for them. Instead, the only option is to lie”.
Fox News host Sean Hannity admitted under oath that he never believed Trump was cheated of victory in the 2020 presidential election
2 Weeks after the Election was called for Joe Biden, Fox Pundits Made False Claims (LIED) about the results nearly 800 times
Fox News repeatedly aided Trump’s efforts to undermine election results, laying the groundwork to cry foul if Trump lost, echoing debunked theories of fraud, pushing the idea that Democrats are trying to “steal” this from him, and arguing that Trump is justified in pursuing his claims of a rigged election. This pattern of coverage continued in the lead-up to the day of the riots.
The “Fox-Can-Lie Lawsuit” established that they are not required to be truthful by law. Since Fox has established that they have the legal right not to be truthful, Fox Opinion Hosts tells their conservative viewers that Democrats are “Radical Leftist Socialists” who want to take away your guns & freedom, that Republican policies are good for this country, that Trump’s a rational person and the MSM (Main Stream Media) such as ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, New York Times, Washington Post etc is “Fake News”. ALL the exact opposite of the TRUTH.
Right-Wing outlets want to KEEP their viewers brainwashed so they never watch legitimate news and learn the truth about the damage Trump and Republicans has been doing to our country while screwing over “the little guy”. Also, the more people who watches, the more money they can demand and bring in for advertising.
Most of FOX’s viewers probably have no idea that Fox can legally LIE to them, so they believe everything they see & hear on FOX.

Joel Greenberg Scandal: Another example of how Lawless and Corrupt Republicans are – Aired on 03/31/2021
Greenberg Scandal Grows Even More Sordid
PAST REPUBLICAN LAWLESS CONDUCT
• Republican Joseph McCarthy – Engaged in demagogic, reckless, and unsubstantiated accusations, as well as public attacks on the character and/or patriotism of political opponents to further his own career in politics.
• Republican President Richard Nixon – Criminal Watergate Activity, creating enemies lists and much more. Details here
• Republican President Gerald Ford Pardoned Richard Nixon’s Criminal Watergate Activities
• Republican President Ronald Reagan. By the end of his term, 138 Reagan administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations. More details here
• Republicans Rigged the 2000 Election This is the epitome of lawlessness. Proof is on this site
• As a result of the 2000 election being rigged which installed George W. Bush as president, Bush illegally and without provocation invaded Iraq, causing the deaths and injury of thousands of US Troops and Iraqi Citizens.
• As a result of the 2000 election being rigged which installed George W. Bush as president, Bush appointed 2 Regressive (“Conservative”) Supreme Court Justices John Roberts and Samuel Alito, who made partisan decisions such as “Citizens United”, striking down key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, failing to strike down the Texas “Heartbeat” Anti-Abortion Law and overturning Roe V. Wade. Al Gore received 600,000 more popular votes than Bush so the majority of US Citizens wanted Gore as President and Liberal Supreme Court Justices. Republicans didn’t care, they crammed the rigged 2000 election down US Citizens throats and pursued a Anti-Democratic, Fascist agenda.
Crimes, Misdeeds and Deaths
Per article at (http://dyn.politico.com/members/forums/thread.cfm?catid=1&subcatid=4&threadid=2895278&start=271&CurrentPage=10) and copies found elsewhere on the internet, here’s just a few of the crimes and misdeeds of George W. Bush
- Lying to the American People about Weapons of Mass Destruction to justify War Against Iraq
- War Crimes: In the case of Hamdan vs Rumsfeld, it was proven that numerous war crimes have been committed by the Bush Administration in the war against Iraq, including the preemptive invasion itself. This does not include the unaccounted-for millions of dollars lost in Iraq or the unlawful management by the US State Department regarding the US Contractors operating in Iraq, Kuwait and Afghanistan. Holding and torturing prisoners being held without due process at Guantanamo Bay and the Abu Ghraib prison scandal are also serious war crimes.
- Deaths and Injuries: Causing the deaths of 4,475 Americans, 32,331 wounded Americans and the deaths of over 112,000 Iraqi Civilians
- Outing of a CIA Agent: The outing of Valerie Plame-Wilson by the Bush Administration, admitted by the CIA as being a covert agent, has led directly to Dick Cheney and possibly directly to the President.
- Spying on Americans: President Bush has admitted to his program of warrentless spying against millions of Americans in violation of the Forth Amendment and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
- Missing e-mails: Two federal statutes require presidential communications, including White House e-mails, to be preserved for the nation’s historical records. From 2001 to October 2003, the White House records system over-wrote all their e-mail files, and up to 2005, some e-mails still were not fully preserved. CREW (Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington) and the National Security Archives allege that millions of e-mails are missing from White House servers. (It is interesting that the timing of these lost e-mails is when most of the major illegal Bush activities were occurring.)
- Misuse of e-mail systems: Both the Republican National Committee e-mail system and the White House system were used within the White House to perform partisan political activities. As the White House is public property, it is against the law to do partisan political business while on public White House property.
- Unlawful FBI Activities: The ACLU has released documents showing that the Bush Administration directed the FBI to expand the definition of “domestic terrorism” to include citizens engaged in nonviolent protest and civil disobedience. This is totally unconstitutional.
- Firing of US Attorneys: This was a successful attempt by the President to use his US Attorney General and the US Justice Department for partisan political gains. VIDEO
- Response to Hurricane Katrina: This was a demonstration of gross negligence by the Bush Administration. A major, obvious betrayal of public trust.
- Scooter Libby: The President betrayed the public trust when he commuted the prison sentence of “Scooter” Libby.
