Ex-CIA Director Calls For Coup If Trump Fires Mueller

The Looney Left Report

It is probably a good thing that we have the Second Amendment as the Looney Left is calling for a coup should President Donald Trump fires special prosecutor Robert Mueller, who is "investigating" the phony Russian collusion charges.

Zero Hedge reported:

In the most vocal opposition to president Donald Trump yet, former CIA Director John Brennan said that if the White House tries to fire special counsel Robert Mueller, government officials should refuse to follow the president orders, as they would be - in his view - “inconsistent” with the duties of the executive branch. 

"I think it's the obligation of some executive branch officials to refuse to carry that out. I would just hope that this is not going to be a partisan issue. That Republicans, Democrats are going to see that the future of this government is at stake and something needs to be done for the good of the future," Brennan told CNN's Wolf Blitzer at the Aspen Security Forum, effectively calling for a coup against the president should Trump give the order to fire Mueller.

This is being discussed as I type this blog by Rush Limbaugh. It is about time these Deep State wackos are brought on sedition charges.

I must remind you of something. Former CIA Director John Brennan voted for the Communist Party candidate in the 1976 presidential election.

Nancy Pelosi: Drop Dead America!

Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in an interview today that she would not allow a vote on the floor of the House of Representatives to allow offshore oil drilling. President Bush rescinded an executive order banning such drilling earlier this week.

When asked in an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer if she would allow a vote to allow offshore drilling, Pelosi said, "I have no plans to do so." Here's the transcript:

BLITZER: There are a lot of people out there, including plenty of Democrats, who say one of the most important things to do right now is to resume offshore drilling off the coast of California, Florida, elsewhere around the United States. Take a look at this poll that CNN/Opinion Research Corporation recently did.

“Do you favor offshore drilling?” Seventy-three percent said yes. “Do you oppose offshore drilling?” Only 27 percent.

You’re among the 27 percent. … Are you afraid if this comes up for a vote in the House you will lose, given the support for offshore oil drilling among these so-called blue dogs, or moderate Democrats, who will join with Republicans?

PELOSI: Afraid is not a word that is in my vocabulary.

BLITZER: Will you let it come up for a vote?

PELOSI: You know, I mean, the point is, is we are putting forth the alternatives that we need to put forth, and that is, drill, use it or lose it. …

BLITZER: So let me get — will you allow this issue, offshore oil drilling, to come up for a vote on the floor of the House?

PELOSI: We’re going to exhaust our other remedies in terms of increasing supply in America by…

BLITZER: So the answer is no?

PELOSI: I have no plans to do so.

This follows a vote in the House that defeated a Democratic bill to require energy companies to explore their existing oil and gas leases or lose them. The so-called “use-it-or-lose-it” bill (HR 6515) was the Democratic leadership’s response to a drumbeat of Republican calls for legislation to open up new public lands and offshore areas to oil and gas drilling.

It was a retread of a prior bill (HR 6251) that Democrats rushed to the floor ahead of the July 4 recess under suspension of the rules, an expedited procedure requiring a two-thirds vote for passage. The 223-195 vote on that bill June 26 fell 56 votes short of that target.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi in essence said, "Drop dead, America! Get used to high gas prices!"
