Hall of Shame

Senator Moscow Mitch Holding Up Bipartisan Bills

by

Corruption seems to seep into every portion of the Republican Senate’s tactics. Per the twitter account of Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, there is a pile of more than 275 bipartisan bills that are stymied on Senator Moscow Mitche’s desk since December 18, 2019. So just who is the evil one in the Senate? Why doesn’t Moscow Mitch simply do his job?

Nikki Haley’s Loyalty to the President before Country

by

Nikki Haley, former Republican governor of South Carolina, is quoted as saying:

“But to undermine a president is really a very dangerous thing. And it goes against the Constitution, and it goes against what the American people want. And it was offensive,” she said. 1 2

Where does it say in the Constitution that to undermine the president is a very dangerous thing? Why did our founders write special language into the Constitution in case of abuse of power? Do you really think the president is above the law?

Haley makes it sound like she is defending the president at all cost. To criticize is “offensive”? It it the opinion of Scrutify that “blind leadership” is not a virtue a team player. Being surrounded by YES people will eventually cause the tower to tumble.

Moscow Mitch Undermines the U.S. Military

by

Weakening the U.S. is now another notch on Mitch McConnell’s belt “red” belt [aka #MoscowMitch]. Even diverting funds from his own state’s Fort Campbell army base isn’t below him. Funds that would have helped build a planned middle school for the children of our folks in uniform. 5

Finally a candidate who will fight for is appearing on the horizon and the people of Kentucky appear to be taking notice. Amy McGrath, a retired US Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel raised in Kentucky, is running for the US Senate to fix Washington and give Kentuckians back their voice. 6

Is Melania Trump’s Citizen Status Legitimate?

by

Many have questioned how legitimate Melina Trump’s citizenship is.

Melania Trump’s own immigration path also has been scrutinized. The first lady, formerly a model known as Melania Knauss, arrived in New York in 1996 and began dating Trump in 2000.7

In 2001, she [Melania Trump] was granted a green card in the elite EB-1 program, which was designed for renowned academic researchers, multinational business executives or those in other fields, such as Olympic athletes and Oscar-winning actors, who demonstrated “sustained national and international acclaim.”

The EB-1 program, also called with “Einstein” citizenship path, has very specific qualifications. Read them for yourself directly on the official website of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ website.

Just for yourself. Did she meet any of this Categories and the supplied evidence? Why doesn’t she show the evidence while her husband bullies others about their immigration status?

The Hypocrisy of the Religious Right

by

The religious right wants to ban all abortions. Having the State or Federal Government ban all abortions, especially those of rape or insist, should have consequences. If the Government and the religious right forces a woman to carry an unwanted baby, the Government also has the responsibility to raise that child to adulthood. That means food, shelter, clothing and education including college through age 26, until that child enters the workforce and can subsist by themselves.

What Does The Bible Teach?

The Bible teaches nothing about abortion. Read “God Is So Not Pro-Life” by Brian Bolton. 10

Is It True That Trump Paid for Abortions?

There are rumors, too, of Trump mistresses paid to have abortions and kept quiet with non-disclosure agreements. One source tells Cockburn that there could be as many as eight such women. (Cockburn should point out that Trump has been the subject of rumors about secret abortions for years, and has admitted no such thing.) But this is more than merely sad and sordid: if any such payments were made while Trump was running for President, there could be new campaign finance violations, all felony offenses. 11
