WEAPONIZED INCOMPETENCE

6/26/2019

0 Comments

 
 
The Mueller Report laid out many felonious acts of obstruction of justice, and the felon in the Oval Office has committed many more acts of obstruction, including contempt of congress, since the Mueller Report first came out. Added to this are two additional felonies committed by the president when SDNY named him as Individual-1—i.e., the current White House occupant—as an unindicted co-conspirator that committed felonious acts of conspiracy to defraud the American people by deliberately breaking U.S. Campaign Finance Law during his presidential campaign of 2016.

But our current president has done so many more evil and cruel things in the name of the American people, which should be listed among the many Articles of Impeachment brought against this criminal in chief when he is finally brought to an impeachment trial before the U.S. Senate. One of the worst High Crimes and Misdemeanors that this president has committed is his flagrant incompetence, particularly in his handling of the immigrants seeking legal asylum at our southern border, and then using his own incompetence and incoherence and that of the chaotic administration that he himself created, as a weapon to inflict as much cruelty upon innocent law-abiding immigrants as possible.

Let’s be clear: the criminal in chief has no use for the law UNLESS and UNTIL it is helping him and/or protecting him from prosecution. We have laws on the book protecting the legal rights of immigrants to seek asylum. Rather than obey this law, the incompetent in chief has chosen to ignore this law. Instead, he has deliberately annihilated wherever he can the chance for these brown-skinned immigrants to seek legal asylum. In breaking the law, he went much further, to identify and vilify these poor people as criminals, as non-human, as “vermin.” Then he lawlessly split up families, separating babies and children from their parents. Breaking yet another law he has held children in cages for months on end, withholding food, shelter, blankets, any kind of bathing and any kind of humane treatment. The despot in chief has even seen fit to withhold soap and toothbrushes...and sleep. We can now add crimes of inhumanity and violations of human rights to the list of our president’s Articles of Impeachment.

In addition, let's add Criminal Incompetence--how he has willfully weaponized his unrelenting incompetence to inflict cruelty. And in this same vein, perhaps we should also add Criminal Negligence.

None of the higher positions at the DHS who should be responsible for overseeing this unfolding humanitarian disaster, have been appointed by this president. All are “acting” appointments, by the president’s unconstitutional design, so that he can circumvent the constitutional duties of our senate to advise and consent, thereby making these officials accountable. The president hasn’t appointed officials to most of the thousands of unfilled positions in the government, because he doesn’t like following the law. He finds it much easier and more comfortable to break the law. And as he has thus far been allowed to break the rules without any consequence, he will continue to act like a king or an emperor. By making “acting” appointments only, the outlaw in chief avoids accountability both for himself and for his staff. Incompetence and Negligence then become not just weapons but excuses. His incompetence and that of his cabinet and whole dysfunctional administration is then used to justify all manner of crimes being inflicted by our government on the asylum seekers at our border. 
 
It is used to justify the illegal kidnapping of literally thousands of children. Who knows what happened to the kidnapped children. The government who stole them away, can’t tell you where they were taken or by whom, because they are too incompetent to have an answer. It is an incompetence born out of evil. The same sort of incompetence the German people used as a defense when they were asked about their own concentration camps. “We didn’t know what was going on,” they answered, when of course they did. 
 
“It wasn’t our fault,” is always the answer of incompetents when defending their acts of Criminal Negligence,  everywhere. “Don’t blame us.” 
 
In fact, whenever our idiot in chief is confronted with a vile act of his own making, he lies and says simply, “I know nothing about that. Don’t blame me.”
 
This president and his evil administration and “acting” appointees, who are willing accomplices to the deaths and deprivations now happening at the border, continue to use their own incompetence and “lack of knowing” to justify the sleep deprivation and other tortures being inflicted on innocent children, while they also deprive them of soap and water or a dry diaper or even someone who knows how to change a dirty diaper.
 
This weaponized incompetence is used to justify the deaths of immigrants attempting to cross the border when all of the Orange Monster’s attempts to thwart their legal right to asylum have proven effective, leaving them no other choice but to literally swim for their lives. The recent photograph taken of the corpses of a father with his infant daughter after drowning in their attempt to reach American soil is a reminder of all who have died as a result of this criminal president’s actions.
 
It is used to justify the murder of seven children who have died in the last few months while being held in our government’s concentration camps. 
 
Mueller’s newly announced testimony on July 17 cannot come too soon. It is long past time already, not merely to begin formal impeachments hearings, but to remove the criminal thug from office that the Russian government selected as our 45thpresident. He needs to be removed before more innocent children, already abandoned to despair in cages, die before our eyes. It is time for the one who caged these innocents to be put into a cage himself.
