All the intelligence agencies are telling us, and both houses of congress (PS that is the people!!!) is that it was Russia that attacked us not Ukraine. The intelligence told us that the Russians have spent the last year fomenting this false narrative about Ukraine. They are PLAYING us!! And trump and the Republicans are helping them. It is congress making the decision about Impeachment and the Intelligence agencies are doing their job advising them. And what are you talking about when you say you don't want the intelligence agencies doing what they want without civilian control. Our intelligence agencies are composed mostly of civilians! Your entire post, while representing a lot of right wingers, is stone cold nuts! <<All 17 of our Intelligence Agencies have decided that it is they who decide what is good for the American People, instead of the outcomes of the elections by the American People. They forget that the US Government exists of the People, by the People, for the People. The Intelligence agencies have gone rogue and have decided to impose dictatorial powers on the American People. Unless Trump is removed from office, he is still the President of the United State and the Intelligence Agencies must obey his orders and stop committing Treason by fomenting coups against the duly elected President. It is NOT their place to do so. It is the place of Congress to decide whether he should be impeached and whether he should be removed from office, not the Intelligence Agencies. Did you not learn anything in school? Why don't you care about our institutions and our rights as citizens? I don't want Intelligence Agencies doing whatever the hell they want without civilian control. We don't live in Nazi Germany where the Brown Shirts and SS can persecute civilians with impunity. We live in the US, where all agencies work FOR the American People and are commanded by the civilian President we ELECT. That is the way our system works. Stop trying to destroy our system. As Obama said, we don't want our system torn down. It's not a perfect system, but it has served the American People just fine for 240 years and it is superior to most other systems ever created. So stop trying to destroy it with this non-sense.
