House GOP considering expunging Trump's impeachment from the record

A day didn't go by after Trump took his oath of office that the Democrats did not had the main goal of impeaching him. Never mind that the reasons turned out to be lies but the legacy media supported the lies and the Department of Justice and the FBI went after him.

But all hope for the Left came crashing down after the Robert Mueller 22-month investigation ended in 2019 with the failure to find something to impeach him with.

Plan B came to pass when the Left tried to imply that a phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was about Trump asking him to investigate the Biden family business dealings with Ukraine. So there was a sham inquiry and Trump was impeached by the House.

Plan C came one week after the January 6, 2021 Capitol incursion, the House voted to impeach Trump a second time over his alleged role in what Democrats insist to this day was an “insurrection.”

Sadly for the Jackass party, this impeachment trial ended the same way as Trump was acquitted by the Senate.

However, The Washington Times reports that the House Republicans are considering expunging Trump’s impeachments from the record. Heads on the Left will explode. Adam Schiff will schiff a brick.

When asked if he'd be willing to bring such legislation to the floor, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said, “We’d look at it. … When you find that the final information of the Russia document is all a lie, and we watch what he went through, I would understand why members would want to bring that forward.”

According to The Times, 42 Republicans are on board with the idea, including House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (NY). She got behind the resolution to exonerate Trump, but the Democrats, of course, refused to vote on it when the Democrats had full control of Congress. So even if Trump was exonerated due to the fact that these allegations were all lies, the Left hates him enough to allow the record to stand.

But now that Republicans control the House, it’s a real possibility.

Rep. Andrew Clyde of Georgia called both impeachments “inappropriate” and said he would “certainly be interested” in wiping them off the books. Rep. Pat Fallon of Texas told the Times he was “definitely interested.”

The lead sponsor of the resolution was then-Rep. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma, who won his Senate race in November. Mullin had previously spearheaded a resolution to expunge the first impeachment as well.

However, some Republicans are weasels and are less ready to support expunging the record. Rep. Dan Bishop (NC) said,  “I tend to think we’ve got plenty to focus on looking through the front windshield, rather than the back.”

Of course, if it was Bishop in the rearview mirror with impeachment on his resume, he would be singing a different tune.

While the expungement of Trump’s impeachments would be huuugely demoralizing for the Democrats, with only 20 percent of the Republican conference supporting the resolution, it isn't going to be enough to get it to fly. In order to clear the record, an almost unanimous backing by the GOP House would be needed but too many of them are RINOs.

Secret Service investigates teacher for alleged threat to our VP

The U.S. Secret Service is charged with the protection of the president and vice president and are now looking into an allegation that a North Carolina high school teacher told her classroom of impressionable students that Vice President Mike Pence "should be shot in the head," according to many reports.

"The woman allegedly told her class at Cuthbertson High School in Union County that Pence should be 'shot in the head,' WJZY reported over the weekend," The Charlotte Observer wrote.

The teacher, who has not been identified, made the statement the same week Mr. Pence stopped in Union County to campaign for the GOP congressional candidate Rep. Dan Bishop.

Officials of Union County Public Schools say they are taking the allegations "very seriously" and the teacher has been placed on administrative leave according to a statement provided to WBTV and other news outlets. The Observer said the Secret Service is investigating.

It seems as if our national politics has become our national religion. People who still cannot get over the 2016 presidential defeat of Hillary Clinton and exhibit Trump Derangement Syndrome, in many cases have become dangerous and are willing to get physically violent as evidenced with Antifa, for one example. But a school teacher making such a violent statement should be disciplined and investigated.

The school district said in a statement: 

"Union County Public Schools is aware of the allegation of inappropriate comments made by a Cuthbertson High School teacher. District administrators are taking this allegation seriously and an investigation is being conducted. This is a personnel matter and information related to this alleged incident is protected by state law."

NBC Charlotte spoke with former FBI assistant director Chris Swecker regarding what the investigation might entail. “I’m sure they will eventually get around to going out and interviewing the teacher,” Swecker told the station.

Swecker explained that federal authorities will probably be trying to answer several questions to determine whether criminal charges will be filed. Americans have a First Amendment right to say almost anything they wish to say, but that right does not extend to making threats of violence or inciting violence.

Swecker explained that it must be taken into consideration as to whether the statement was an imminent threat and whether she has the means [weapons, for example] to carry out her words. Officials will also look into whether she has made other threats and if she has a criminal record--if she does, then why is she working in a public school?

“Whether it was actually an imminent threat, does she have weapons?” Swecker said. “Have other threats been made? Does she have a criminal record?”

The teacher's comments prompted criticism in the community.

"You should not be bringing in those type of viewpoints to your job," Union County GOP Chair Allison Powers told WBTV.

Powers isn't calling for the teacher to be fired, but says the comment was inappropriate. "To just wish that kind of violence on anybody is just way out of bounds,” Powers said.
Union County cccccc
Firas Obeid [whose name also spells: "die for bias"], a parent to two students at the school, said he doesn't necessarily support the vice president, but also said the comment was wrong. "This is the vice president of the United States. He's an elected official,” Obeid told the station. "Affiliation to a specific party does not entitle us to make a statement like that to anyone.” He is correct.

Union County, along with neighboring Mecklenburg County, are in the state’s 9th Congressional District where Bishop narrowly won a special election against Democrat Dan McCready this month. Trump and Pence both visited the district, along with Donald Trump Jr. 

Their visits pushed Bishop over the top, political analysts said, and this may have caused the teacher to lose her rational mind.
