J'Accuse

Not enough people are speaking seriously of the widespread criminal behavior that infects the Trump administration. So I will.

I accuse:

Donald J. Trump of treason for his secret collusion with Vladimir Putin and other potential enemies to interfere with the electoral process and to undermine the stability of the U. S. government.

Donald J. Trump of criminally negligent manslaughter for the deaths of 160,000 Americans from COVID-19.

Donald J. Trump of fraud and intent to defraud the American people with false promises and frivolous executive orders made only to enhance his chances of re-election.

Donald J. Trump of misuse of federal funds and resources for political gain.

Michael R. Pence of aiding and abetting the above acts.

The Cabinet, collectively, of violating their oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic" by failing to invoke the 25th Amendment, relieving Trump of his presidential duties.

Attorney General William P. Barr of criminal assault, attempted murder, and criminal trespass for allowing federal agents to occupy American cities and act against American citizens exercising their Constitutional rights.

The Congress, collectively, for malfeasance and abandonment of their oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic."

Addison Mitchell McConnell Jr. for inciting other members of Congress to act contrary to their sworn oath.

Addison Mitchell McConnell Jr. for conspiring with the president, other members of the administration, and other members of Congress selectively to block or promote legislation that would negatively affect the voting rights of Americans.

The Supreme Court, collectively, for taking blatantly political stands in violation of their oath to "administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and . . . faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me."

Chad Wolf, Acting Secretary of Homeland Security, FBI Director Christopher A. Wray, and Secret Service Director James M. Murray for grossly endangering the American public by colluding with members of the administration not to hamper the actions of a clearly delusional president.

To this list I add five crimes Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) allege Donald J. Trump committed in connection with his shadowy dealings with Ukraine: 

• Bribery
• Soliciting foreign campaign contribution
• Coercion of political activity
• Misappropriation of federal funds
• Obstruction of Congress

Treason and bribery are specifically named in the Constitution as impeachable offenses. 

The penalty for treason is death.
