Not an Easy Question

Well, not an easy question for him.
My email to my congresscritter, Brian Jack:

Whoever had control of the “AUTOPEN” is looking to be a bigger and bigger scandal by the moment. It is a major part of the real crime, THAT THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2020 WAS RIGGED AND STOLEN! Millions and millions of people knew that, but the Radical Left Democrats waged a campaign on inoculation [sic] and innocence like none that had ever been waged before. THIS IS WHY THE UNSELECT COMMITTEE OF POLITICAL THUGS, WHO WERE GIVEN A FULL AND COMPLETE PARDON BY THE PERSON WHO WIELDED THE NOW ILLEGALLY USED AUTOPEN, DELETED AND DESTROYED ALL EVIDENCE AND INFORMATION FROM THEIR CORRUPT AND VICIOUS WITH HUNT AGAINT ME, AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE, WHOSE LIVES WERE COMPLETELY SHATTERED AND DESTROYED BY THIS HISTORICALLY CRIMINAL EVENT. Remember, it all began with DIRTY COP James Comey, Obama, a hapless and cognitively impaired Sleepy Joe Biden, and my now very famous ACCUSATION that, “THEY SPIED ON MY CAMPAIGN!” Whoever had control of the…

This is who you support and — indeed — worked for. Why?

As usual, your reply will be posted on my blog and on Facebook. Thank you for your attention.

I don’t know about you guys, but I’d fake my own death to avoid answering this for my constituents.

Easy Answers: Habeas corpus

Nazi ghoul Stephen Miller has stated publicly that the Republixanazi Administration is “considering suspending habeas corpus.”

Because of course they are.

What is one to do but contact one’s elected representative, right?

—————

Dear Rep. Brian Jack:

I see where Stephen Miller is actively pursuing “getting rid of habeas corpus.”

You are my elected representative. Do you support this?

I expect an answer that does not involve your getting your office organized seven months after the election.

As usual, I will post your answer on my blog in my Easy Answer series. (So far, you haven’t answered any of my questions.)

—————

I do not, of course, expect an answer. My congresscritter was Turmp’s political director during the First Reich, so my presumption is that he completely on board with the Nazis.

Easy Answers: Parade or nah?

My email to my congresscritter Brian Jack this morning:

I know you are deeply committed to the “president’s agenda,” but surely even you can see that the Pennsylvania Ave birthday parade is not only a huge waste of money but also a finger in the eye to anyone who believes that the U.S. is not ruled by a tinpot dictator.

Question: Have you done anything to dissuade the Current Regime from doing this or introduced legislation to stop it? Do you still believe that Congress controls the purse strings?

Thank you for your assistance in my “Easy Answers” blog series, where I will post any reply you send me.

Hope the office organization is going well.

He stopped sending out the boilerplate emails claiming he’s been busy getting his office organized (months after the election). My past couple of emails he hasn’t replied at all.

Got it? He’s not obligated in any way to consider his constituents’ feedback.

Which tracks for the kind of man he is.

But wait, you say, aren’t you being unfair, Dale? Your emails to him are nothing more than provocations about the incompetence/evil of his Republixanazi Party. You’re taunting him. You’re a liberal, and do not support him. You didn’t even know he was the White House political director for Turmp I until after he was elected because you didn’t need to know anything about him other than he was “ENDORSED BY TRUMP.”

Yes, and?

He is still honor-bound to represent me in Congress.

This Easy Question should be a no-brainer.

Well, it should be a no-brainer, but we are dealing with supremely evil people.

My email to my Republixanazi congresscritter, Brian Jack. We all know that he’s still working on getting his office organized (though for my last email to him I didn’t even get the boilerplate “I’m still organizing my office five months after the election” email), but maybe, just maybe he’s as appalled as decent people over the outrageous ICE kidnappings.

Your administration is now disappearing people from off the streets, smashing their car windows and pulling them out, whisking them away to secret prisons without regard to due process or even decency. Your Gestapo won’t even show their faces, hiding behind masks as they continue to imprison innocent people.

How do I know they’re innocent? Because they haven’t been given a trial, and until they are convicted in a court of law they are — stop me if you’ve heard this one before — INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY. That’s the bottom line, Brian Jack, and my understanding of your political makeup leads me to believe that you fully support the Nazis as they dismantle our legal system.

My question for you today is: Do you in fact support the Nazis as they dismantle our legal system? What are you doing to pressure the Nazis to free Kilmar Abrego Garcia, for example?

I’ll be posting your response to this over at dalelyles.com — I do notice that you haven’t replied to my earlier emails, so the presumption of Nazi sensibilities will stand until you issue a statement condemning the overreach of ICE and the current administration.

Just curious, have you ever read much about Robespierre?

Who knows, maybe Brian Jack has a conscience?

Can you “deport” U.S. citizens?

Yesterday, Karoline Leavitt, aka Fascist Barbie, aka White House Press Secretary, allowed as how the Current Administration is looking at ways to “‘deport’ U.S. citizens to El Salvador.”

Just like all those vicious criminal immigrants we recently kidnapped and send to a concentration camp in El Salvador, these U.S. citizens would apparently be snatched off the street and hustled into some black holding tank before being sold to the slavers in Central America.

You will notice that nowhere in the process are these citizens given their due process rights: knowing what they’re charged with, having a free and fair jury trial, and above all, having the chance to state their innocence while the government has to prove their criminality.

You will also notice that we deprived the deported immigrants of those same rights, assigned by the Fifth Amendment to every “Person” in the country.

So yes, it’s a little concerning when the Current Administration admits it wants to do the same thing to citizens.

Important point: You cannot “deport” a citizen. What is this, “The Man Without a Country“?

And so I sent my Republixanazi congresscritter, Brian Jack, an Easy Question:

Karoline Leavitt, as part of her official duties, confirmed yesterday that your administration is planning to “deport” U.S. citizens to El Salvador.

I must assume that you, as a member of this administration, support this criminal attack on due process. If not, just say so and I’ll publish that on my blog.

How’s that office organization going? It’s only been 153 days since the election.

I’ll publish any answer he sends me.

 

Easy Answers redux

I am re-upping my Easy Answers series, wherein I ask my elected congresscritter a very easy question and then report on any answer they might give.

Today: https://www.axios.com/local/salt-lake-city/2025/03/17/navajo-code-talkers-trump-dei-military-websites-wwii

I emailed my Republixanazi congresscritter, Brian Jack, and asked this easy question: Do you support this brute Stalinesque purge of our nation’s history?

It’s a simple yes or no question, right?

You should know up front that it has been 131 days since Nov 6, 2024, and so far this is the only email response I have ever gotten from Rep. Jack:

Dear Friend,

Thank you for contacting me and taking the time to share your thoughts on this important matter.

As my office gets up and running, I will be sure to send you a more detailed response. I simply wanted you to know that your opinion has been noted and your voice has been heard.

It is a great honor to serve as your Representative in Washington, DC. I am humbled to take on this responsibility and look forward to serving our great state and Nation to the best of my abilities. To better stay in touch, please sign up to receive my e-newsletter through my website.

Sincerely,
Brian Jack
Member of Congress

131 days, and his office is still not fully functional. Maybe DOGGIE should look at the government efficiency on Capitol Hill.

At any rate, I will post any real response here. I don’t expect to get a real response, just some pusillanimous bullshit about tHe PrEsiDeNt’S AnTi-dEi racist policies, as if they are valid or in any way a good thing for our country.[1]

—————

[1] They are in fact neither valid nor good in any way for our country.

At least it’s an answer

Back in February, I emailed our senators a simple question:

On Dec 24, 2016, I emailed you to ask if you agreed with the president’s tweet that we should restart the nuclear arms race.  You haven’t answered.

Now it appears that the president, in a private talk with Putin, has denigrated the limitations of the most recent START agreement.

If this proves to be the case, will you support a nuclear arms race?  If so, to what end?

Yesterday I received a reply from Johnny Isakson:

 Thank you for contacting me regarding North Korea. I appreciate hearing from you and I am grateful for the opportunity to respond.

Kim Jong-un has chosen to follow along the same destructive path as his father, Kim Jong-il. Kim has refused to comply with regional and international pressure to discontinue North Korea’s nuclear weapons program by carrying out a nuclear test and launching short and long-range missiles. In July 2017 alone, North Korea has conducted 2 missile tests, and 22 since November 2016.

It is clear that Kim Jong-un’s repeated, unacceptable and deplorable threats cannot be allowed to continue. I support the additional sanctions placed on North Korea through H.R.3364, the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act, and urge the President to implement this law fully.

North Korea has continued to show a severely reckless attitude toward the welfare of its own citizens by committing serious human rights violations and by continuing to pour resources into nuclear weapons. We must continue to support our allies that live under constant threat from North Korea, and we also must urge China to place greater economic and political pressure on the Kim regime. North Korea has shown that it is a threat to the entire world, not just the United States. Without China participating in this negotiation, it is near impossible to hold North Korea accountable. Additionally, I am strongly in favor of increasing our missile defense capabilities and working to ensure that we are prepared for any missile threat.

We as a nation must keep all of our options available, including the use of force if necessary, to protect the American people and remove the threat of nuclear weapons on the Korean peninsula.

(highlights mine)

At least I think he’s answering my nuclear arms race question.  Since none of my congresscritters have been at all responsive to my requests for position statements, I stopped tallying them over at the Easy Answers page.  I may have sent something specific to North Korea at some point, either via email or ResistBot.  Who can remember?  We’ll just pretend that this answers my nuclear arms race question.

Because it does.

The Trumpsters are hooting and flinging poo because their Current Embarrassment isn’t afraid to call North Korea’s unstable leader names, unlike his wussy predecessors who used sanctions and suasion to keep things calm-ish on the peninsula.  He’s not afraid to threaten nuclear annihilation to the madman who rules that country.  That’ll show him, crow the Trumpsters—USA! USA!

Neither they nor their Chief Poo Flinger ever think that they will also kill the 25 million humans who are trapped in the Hermit Kingdom, nor of the 51 million humans who live next door in our ally, South Korea, nor of the 127 million who live in Japan.  That’s not important. Showing Kim Jong-un who has the bigger club is what’s important.[1]

So if we need an analogy to help us understand the difference between the “Bomb them!” crowd and the deliberate approach pursued by sane politicians, I offer this video:

Obama, the Bushes, Clinton: they’re the English police dealing with a crazy man.  The Current Embarrassment: he’s the St. Louis police department.

I suppose it all boils down to which end result you’re after.

Easy answer, healthcare edition

This morning I emailed my senators, Johnny Isakson and David Perdue, to ask them an easy question:

I have read your statement on why you voted for the healthcare bills under consideration. Can you show me the scoring on those bills to back up your claims that they will give more people in this nation healthcare? Not “access” to healthcare: healthcare.

The easy answer is, of course, “no.”  They cannot.  No amount of massaging the data—which they don’t have in the first place—will show that the bills they have voted on will actually improve healthcare in this nation.

#ShowMeTheScoring

I’m not even adding this to the Easy Answers page any more.  What’s the point when they’re not going to answer in any legitimate way?

UPDATE: I’m not the only one catching on.
