Notes from my Substack
By: Gary D. Barnett
I want to discuss the latest ploy of Thomas Massey. To preface my statements, let me say that although he is just another politician, he has been somewhat better than most, at least at the margin considering his ‘voting’ record. I am saying this with the understanding that all politics and politicians are manipulative at best, and openly evil at worst.
Massey just filed impeachment proceedings against Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of ‘War.’ “Massie alleges that Hegseth has waged the Iran war illegally, among other “high crimes and misdemeanors.” Some who have been fooled, call this a victory and courageous. It is nothing of the kind.
Hegseth is evil, a pathological liar, and a warmonger who should be in prison. The rub though goes much deeper, as political maneuvering, targeted grandstanding, and self-promotion are evident. The so-called “Iran War” was initiated by Trump on orders from his handlers. Trump is the most single apparent orchestrator of this fraudulent and staged ‘war.’ The clown Hegseth, is Trump’s subordinate, takes orders from Trump, and was appointed to his position by Trump. So why would Massey move to impeach Hegseth, and not include Trump, who is the main ringleader in prosecuting this heinous Middle East war in order to get in the proper graces of the evil Israel, and to cause a programmed collapse in order to advance a technocratic prison system for Americans? Hmm?
I can only speculate, but it seems to me that the fool Hegseth is currently more out of favor with this pathetic society than is Trump, so going after Hegseth will get him (Massey) more brownie points with future voters, but going after the head honcho Trump would likely cause him more political harm. Is this grandstanding? I think so, and I think it is calculated.
Congress did absolutely nothing to stop this premeditated aggression, neither did Trump, and neither did any court, but Massie concentrated all guilt on Hegseth. In my opinion, this is simply a political move, and has nothing to do with honorable intent to stop the constant slaughter of innocents at the hands of the U.S. government and its murderous military.
This immediately reminded me of the recent fake Rand Paul investigation and Senate Committee hearing of Anthony Fauci, which was a farce. I consider this Massey theatre to be in the exact same vein. Political points are sought, knowing all along it is a waste of time, and will solve absolutely nothing.
