FRUIT OF THE POISONOUS TREE!

Last edited Sat Dec 8, 2018, 07:06 PM - Edit history (1)

(sorry for shouting)

This needs to be a rallying cry!

Otherwise, future elections will be corrupted in even more heinous ways, and people will get into power and take actions, IRREVERSIBLE actions. Even when the bad actors are caught and punished, their purpose and agenda will have been fulfilled.

Impeachment is critical, but dealing with the poisoned fruit is what will determine the real fate of our Republic.

Our Supreme Court has poisoned fruit. Our Judiciary has a bumper crop of poisoned fruit. The poison has tainted world affairs. The poison has decimated our standing in the global community.

The poisoned fruit has seeds, and they aren't the Monsanto kind that only last a season.

THE FRUIT OF THE POISONOUS TREE MUST BE DESTROYED!

From google ...

Fruit of the poisonous tree is a legal metaphor in the United States used to describe evidence that is obtained illegally. The logic of the terminology is that if the source (the tree) of the evidence or evidence itself is tainted, then anything gained (the fruit) from it is tainted as well.

I should probably change that, otherwise it doesn't make sense...

Thanks
