GOP Rep. Collins to Nadler: Let’s Have Investigations On What The Department Of Justice Has Become

Both sides will report to work  in Congress this Monday morning after a tumultuous weekend of headlines of opposite opinions regarding the Mueller report which cleared the President of Russian collusion.  What we will see is a new loaf of baked bread by the Democrats and a lot of circuses going on; whereby, the Republicans feel the direction now is  – let’s have investigations on what the Department of Justice and Hillary concocted on the road to the Russian investigation of President Trump.  It has to start with Hillary Clinton.

We have to thread that needle to start the heeling process for our country since the President has been harpooned for two years of dirty ragging by the Democrats trying to slow him down and taking back our country to before the Obama administration where this witch hunt started.  The Democrats seemed to think our President couldn’t walk and chew gum at the same time.  Boy, were they fooled.  While the Democrats were fooling around playing detective, President Trump was working 24/7 – even while keeping the Democrat wolves at bay:

For the second consecutive year, the U.S. economy outperformed expectations and broke from recent trends by a substantial margin. In June 2017, the Congressional Budget Office projected that during the four quarters of 2018, real gross domestic product (GDP) would grow by 2.0 percent, the unemployment rate would decline by 0.1 percentage point, to 4.2 percent, and employment growth would average 107,000 jobs per month. Instead, real GDP in the first three quarters of 2018 grew at a compound annual rate of 3.2 percent—above the Trump Administration’s own Q4-over-Q4 forecast for the second successive year—the unemployment rate declined by 0.4 percentage point, to a near-50-year low of 3.7 percent, and employment growth averaged 223,000 jobs per month. Growth in labor productivity, which averaged just 1.0 percent between 2009:Q3 and 2016:Q4, doubled to 2.0 percent in 2018. Capital expenditures by nonfinancial businesses rose 13.9 percent at a compound annual rate through 2018:Q3.

The strong economic performance in 2017 and 2018 was not merely a continuation of trends already under way during the post recession expansion, but rather constituted a distinct break from the previous pace of economic and employment growth since the start of the current expansion in 2009:Q3. Consistent with conclusions in the 2018 Economic Report of the President, investment, manufacturing employment, worker compensation, and new startups have all risen sharply in the two years since the 2016 election.

In addition, overall economic output by the third quarter of 2018 was $250 billion, or 1.3 percent, larger than projected by the 2009:Q3–2016:Q4 trend, with the compound annual growth rate up 1.2 percentage points over trend. Higher output growth was driven by a marked rise in real private investment in fixed assets, which was 10.6 percent over the trend as of the third quarter. In the first three quarters of 2018, the contribution of real private nonresidential fixed investment to GDP growth rose from 0.6 percentage point, the average of the preceding expansion, to 1.0 percentage point, while investment as a share of GDP rose to its second-highest level for any calendar year since 2001. Real private nonresidential fixed investment by nonfinancial businesses rose 8.3 percent at a compound annual rate through 2018:Q3, climbing to a level 14.7 percent above that projected by the 2009:Q3–2016:Q4 trend. As of December 2018, average nominal weekly earnings of goods producing production and nonsupervisory workers had risen $2,300 above trend on an annualized basis.

See, I told you the President could walk and chew gum.

Now to the next chapter of the Russian collusion fiasco – we now get to investigate how and what started the  witches brew which was concocted by  Obama/Hillary Clinton/Comey/Clapper/Brenner  when they used her ugly broom to try and sweep the election of President Trump into oblivion.  It will be interesting to see how, who and when all of this intrigue started because it didn’t happen over night.

The Democrats want to keep investigating the President and try to litigate to keep from using the Constitution and legislate since  AG Barr has issued a four-page letter which exonerates the President.  Why – because the Democrats know their jig is up and it is now their time to be on the stage of justice and the role will be reversed.
