Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed John D. O’Connor.
The stripping of all assignments of Congressperson Marjorie Taylor Greene should be viewed as consistent with the Impeachment of Trump. The idea is to make all conservative speech unacceptable and to tar all conservatives with the brush of kookiness. Greene was duly elected, and now the hundreds of thousands in her District are in essence unrepresented by virtue of a vote of the other party. Congressperson Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says odd things, such as a claim that the world will end soon, and yet no one tries to say she should not have congressional power.
Regarding the impeachment, former Attorney General William Barr did NOT say that there was no fraud in the election, as reported by pundits. He said that “to date” there has not been proven fraud (which he means as criminal fraud) on a scale that would affect the outcome of the election. The essence of democracy is free debate, and that is being stifled.
