Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) Announces the Inevitable … His Retirement Following Sexually Harassment Scandals

WHO DIDN’T SEE THIS COMING …

On Tuesday, Rep. John Conyers (D-Michigan) has resigned from office. Sorry, he is calling it a retirement. One too many women came forward to sexually harassment allegations he knew to be true. The end was near when Conyers went into the hospital for stress. This was an obvious way to have an out. I guess this is one way to drain the swamp. What is probably most troubling and becomes obvious to the out of touch nature of Conyers is that in the midst of the sexual allegations of misconduct, some of which settlements were made, he said the following in his retirement, “My legacy can’t be compromised or diminished in any way by what we’re going through now. This too shall pass.” Really? That’s how flipped this Democrat man is with sexual misconduct against women. Also, in some vision that Michigan is a monarchy, Conyers endorsed his son to run for his seat. To the people of Michigan, why don’t you try a fresh start.

Embattled Rep. John Conyers, D-Michigan, has announced Tuesday that he is retiring and has endorsed his son, John Conyers III to run for his seat. Conyers’ lawyer confirmed that the retirement is effective immediately.

“My legacy can’t be compromised or diminished in any way by what we’re going through now. This too shall pass,” said Conyers on a local Michigan radio station Tuesday morning.

He added, “I want you to know that my legacy will continue through my children. I have a great family here and especially in my oldest boy, John Conyers III who incidentally I endorsed to replace me in my seat in Congress.”

Shortly after the announcement,  Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, took to the House floor to read a statement from Conyers. She said he asked her to read his statement announcing his decision and that he’s notified House Speaker Paul Ryan, Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Michigan Governor Rick Snyder of his plans to step down.

“Given the totality of the circumstance of not being afforded the right of due process in conjunction with current health conditions, and to preserve my legacy and good name, I am retiring. I hope my retirement will be viewed in the larger perspective of my record of service as I enter a new chapter,” the statement from Conyers read.

While Conyers maintains he would be retiring immediately, CBS News’ Steve Chaggaris reports that Conyers’ resignation from the House will trigger a special election to replace him to be called by the governor, per Michigan law. That will take place as soon as the Michigan governor’s office receives his letter of resignation.

Sean Hannity 12/5/2017: The Mueller Deep State Witch Hunt … Hillary Clinton Double Standard and Trump-hating FBI Agent Peter Strzok (VIDEO)

THIS IS UNREAL HOW CORRUPT THE FBI IS AND WAS …

Watch and learn and you will begin to see how all the pieces fit together. The fix was in from the start with the Hillary Clinton investigation and subversive, Trump haters in the FBI paved the way for the current Mueller witch hunt. Sorry, Mueller’s investigation has zero credibility at this point. Maybe it is the FBI, James Comey and Mueller who need to be investigation for obstruction of justice, collusion, covering up and corruption?

SCOTUS Rules in Favor of President Trump Travel Ban by a 7-2 Decision

ANOTHER WIN FOR TRUMP …

Yesterday, in a 7 -2 decision the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump administration travel ban by residents of six mostly Muslim countries. This is a huge victory for Trump, the rule of law and the safety of American citizens. This is a tremendous loss for Democrats and liberals who have no want or need to protect its citizens from outside hostile individuals. So much for all of the liberals who said Trump could not do such things like protect the United States of America. Although the decision is not final, it means that the ban can go into place while the cases are heard. With a 7-2 decision, it is most likely the ban will be upheld when the case is finally heard.  The ban applies to travelers from Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen.

The Supreme Court on Monday allowed the Trump administration to fully enforce a ban on travel to the United States by residents of six mostly Muslim countries.

This is not a final ruling on the travel ban: Challenges to the policy are winding through the federal courts, and the justices themselves ultimately are expected to rule on its legality.

But the action indicates that the high court might eventually approve the latest version of the ban, announced by President Donald Trump in September. Lower courts have continued to find problems with the policy.

Just two justices, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor, noted their disagreement with court orders allowing the latest policy to take full effect.

The new policy is not expected to cause the chaos that ensued at airports when Trump rolled out his first ban without warning in January.

The ban applies to travelers from Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen. Lower courts had said people from those nations with a claim of a “bona fide” relationship with someone in the United States could not be kept out of the country. Grandparents, cousins and other relatives were among those courts said could not be excluded.

Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, The Killer of Kate Steinle Found Not Guilty of First & Second Degree Murder, To be Deported Again

UNBELIEVABLE & INEXPLICABLE:  THIS IS WHAT JUSTICE LOOKS LIKE FOR AN AMERICAN CITIZEN IN A SANCTUARY CITY ..

Remember when we used to live in an America where U.S. citizens were protected by the U.S. Constitution? In what can only be explain as a troubling and puzzling jury decision, illegal immigrant Jose Ines Garcia Zarate was acquitted of first and second degree murder and involuntary manslaughter. He also was found not guilty of assault with a semi-automatic weapon. He was found guilty of possessing a firearm by a felon. What, the jury didn’t find him guilty of littering?

The defense stated and obviously this clueless jury bought it, that but for the ricochet of a bullet accidentally fired by a 7 time felon, Kate Steinle would still be alive. NO! But for the fact that this 7 time felon who was illegally in the country and who had been deported numerous times, Kate Steinle would still be alive. Zarate was found guilty of possessing a firearm by a felon which means he will be deported again for the umteenth time and most likely wind up in San Francisco again. It also means that the jury knew that Zarate was a previous felon and it fell on deaf ears. Justice is supposed to be blind, not stupid. How does anyone live in this city?

Via Fox News:

Jose Ines Garcia Zarate was found not guilty Thursday of murdering Kate Steinle on Pier 14 in San Francisco in July 2015 in a case that sparked a heated national debate over illegal immigration and so-called sanctuary cities, and U.S. immigration officials said he will be deported.

Zarate was acquitted of Kate Steinle would still be alive. He also was found not guilty of assault with a semi-automatic weapon. He was found guilty of possessing a firearm by a felon. The jury had deliberated for six days.

Steinle was walking with her father and a family friend in July 2015 when she was shot, collapsing into her father’s arms. Zarate had been released from a San Francisco jail about three months before the shooting, despite a request by federal immigration authorities to detain him for deportation.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced late Thursday: “Following the conclusion of this case, ICE will work to take custody of Mr. Garcia Zarate and ultimately remove him from the country.”

ICE Deputy Director Tom Homan added, “San Francisco’s policy of refusing to honor ICE detainers is a blatant threat to public safety and undermines the rule of law. This tragedy could have been prevented if San Francisco had turned the alien over to ICE, as we requested, instead of releasing him back onto the streets.”
