Articles of Impeachment Introduced Against Secretary of State

There was great hesitation from the Republican members of Congress when they were deciding whether or not to approve the nomination of Antony Blinken for Secretary of State.  Now, it's become very apparent as to why they were so hesitant. He's utterly incompetent.  Time's up for Blinken as the Republican members of the House of Representatives have introduced articles of impeachment against Blinken.  Representatives Andy Harris and Ralph Norman are putting much of the blame on Blinken for the loss of lives in Kabul, even though Little Joey B said that the buck stops with him.

The articles of impeachment single out the State Department for promising in April that the American Embassy in Kabul could be kept open and operational for more than 1,400 American citizens in Afghanistan after U.S. troops completed their planned withdrawal, and then failing to keep that promise.

"Secretary Blinken has failed to faithfully uphold his oath and has instead presided over a reckless abandonment of our nation's interests, security, and values in his role in the withdrawal of American forces and diplomatic assets from Afghanistan," the articles of impeachment state...............To Read More.....

Has Clinton Topped Nixon?

The former secretary of state has been exposed as a ruthless politician following a playbook similar to Tricky Dick’s.
 
by Victor Davis Hanson @vdhanson

Another day, another Hillary Clinton bombshell disclosure. This time the scandal comes from disgraced former congressman Anthony Weiner’s laptop computer, bringing more suggestions of Clinton’s sloppy attitude about U.S. intelligence law. Meanwhile, seemingly every day WikiLeaks produces more evidence of the Clinton Foundation leveraging the Clinton State Department for pay-for-play profiteering.  At this point, Clinton has trumped former president Richard Nixon’s skullduggery — but without the offset of Nixon’s foreign-policy accomplishments..........
This time around, there is not the same sort of investigative reporting that there was in 1973–1974. Much of the media is backing, rather than investigating, Clinton.......To Read More.....

John Kerry Proves He Doesn’t Understand Climate Science


In an interview at the close of the recent Paris climate conference, Secretary of State John Kerry scolded Republican senators for saying out loud that the next president may not be a big supporter of President Barack Obama’s climate policies. Kerry asserted voters won’t allow a change, “I don’t think they’re going to accept as a genuine leader someone who doesn’t understand the science of climate change and isn’t willing to do something about it.”  But Kerry disproves his own theory. In a widely covered speech in Jakarta, Indonesia Kerry gave an absolutely cringe-worthy explanation of CO2 and global warming.  Of course the press totally ignored his bizarre CO2 science lesson:

“I know sometimes I can remember from when I was in high school and college, some aspects of science or physics can be tough – chemistry. But this is not tough. This is simple. Kids at the earliest age can understand this.  “Try and picture a very thin layer of gases – a quarter-inch, half an inch, somewhere in that vicinity – that’s how thick it is. It’s in our atmosphere. It’s way up there at the edge of the atmosphere. And for millions of years – literally millions of years – we know that layer has acted like a thermal blanket for the planet – trapping the sun’s heat and warming the surface of the Earth to the ideal, life-sustaining temperature. Average temperature of the Earth has been about 57 degrees Fahrenheit, which keeps life going.”

He probably should have stopped with “physics can be tough.” .......To Read More....

My Take - Kerry is just doing what he's always done - making it up as he goes along.  I'm convinced he wanted to be Secretary of State so he could show the world what they missed by his not being elected President of the United States.  Well....he's certainly done that.
