Bi-Partisan Support For Impeachment


Recommended Posts

"Here are my principal conclusions. Attorney General Barr has deliberately misrepresented Mueller's report. Number two, President Trump has engaged in impeachable -- impeachable conduct. Number three, partisanship has eroded our system of checks and balances. Number four, few members of Congress have read the Mueller report."
 

 

A libertarian member of the House Freedom Caucus joins many Democrats in calling out this lawless president

You are right, but it does require Congress to act and THEN if impeachment is passed, the Senate holds a trial. No way in hell that they convict him on grounds that he made you feel bad or he has two scoops of ice cream. 

 

Dream on TDS victims.

Yes - which is why it's noteworthy a member of the freedom caucus has come out in favor of impeachment.

 

The chances of him being convicted on grounds I feel bad or because he had two scoops of ice cream are also zero.

No, it’s not noteworthy.  Corruption happens within the Freedom Caucus as well.

 

Two months ago Amash officially opined that the Mueller report contained no evidence of collusion, conspiracy, or obstruction and that there were no grounds to impeach.

 

Then, a few days ago, after his own China ties were exposed and the Administration’s policy towards China began to tighten the screws on him, he reversed course and made the argument that:  Trump may have committed crimes that no one is aware of (including himself), and that a crime doesn’t need to have been committed to impeach the President anyway.

 

It’s literally an argument that Chinese businesses interests (IE the Chinese government) should have a say in our impeachment process.

 

Amash is going to burn along with DiFi.

If what you claim is true, it is even more noteworthy.

 

Will you be swooping in on Drogon to burn both Amash and DiFI? Harsh, no?

You can always count on Tibsy for a fantasy thread

 

 

 

 Justin Amash’s last stand. He’s always ready to stand selflessly for principle, so long as it gets him good press.

 

 

 

 Justin Amash Gone Wild. “One more thing, J-Am, where are your libertarian principles regarding illegal surveillance on American citizens? On Illegal FISA warrants, national security letters, human intelligence assets being placed around a political campaign by the unelected political bureaucracy? The jack-booted fedgov strong-arming people to plead to process crimes? U cool with that bro, because TRUMP?”

What I claim are verifiable facts.

 

And no, I don’t think charges of treason are too harsh for members of our government whom have committed treason.

please start impeachment. It pretty much just ensures a red wave in 2020

No need. There is plenty of other ammunition to ensure the wave. 

That ammo must have been pretty great in 2018! It lost the GOP 40 house seats

We’re discussing the present and the future. A lot of dumbassery coming from the Dems the the last 6 months since then.

The power to pardon is one of the least limited powers granted to the President in the Constitution. The only limits mentioned in the Constitution are that pardons are limited to offenses against the United States (i.e., not civil or state cases), and that they cannot affect an impeachment process. 

https://www.heritage.org/constitution/#!/articles/2/essays/89/pardon-power

 

This is an interesting aspect of this situation. If Manafort is staying quiet in hopes of a pardon, that could be dashed--along with other pardons--by simply initiating the impeachment process. 

 

It might even force others to talk. Remember, there are 12 other sealed indictments from Mueller we have not seen yet.

How simplistically childish. You have any Fraggle Rock analogies to share (inappropriately I might add). Maybe after binge watching Mr. Roger’s neighborhood episodes you can come back and post something more intelligent and germane. Oh, I know. It’ll be “Faux News!” How original.

Sorry I do not have the ability to opine like yourself. Your wit and intellectualism is on par with thinkers like Aristotle and Foucault. See your intelligent and germane response below.

There is impeachment talk with the new President in 2024.

 

We will hear this exact same crap in 2023 when Trump is about to leave office.

 

Dems are a total joke (along with some RINO's). Throw these anti-American pricks onto an island and let them eat each other.

Take off your partisan blinders. The guy acts like he is above the law. 

 

If a Democrat did 1/10 of this crap he would have been impeached last year

The last Dem in the Oval spied on Congress, the press, and American citizens for partisan political purposes. He also conspired with foreign intelligence services in an effort to swing the election towards his favored choice. 

 

... He wasn't impeached. You didn't call him names. Why? 

 

(Because the media didn't report it)

Image result for trump content

 

 

 

JAY CARUSO: Republican Justin Amash says Trump has done enough to be impeached — but it’s the Democrats who will suffer. 

 

“What Amash has done shouldn’t be seen as a signal of change within the GOP. He has always been an outlier.”

 

Even after the release of the Mueller report, Speaker Pelosi and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer took a cautious approach to impeachment. These days, the rhetoric coming from Democratic circles, including Pelosi, makes it appear that putting off any move toward an impeachment inquiry is all about presidential politics in 2020 instead of “holding Trump accountable.”

 

Earlier this year, House Minority Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) compared the Trump administration to the Hitler regime and said, “This man and his family are the greatest threats to democracy of my lifetime.”

In recent weeks, the Trump administration refused Congressional subpoenas, prompting several Democratic House committee leaders, such as chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Rep. Adam Schiff and Rep. Gerry Connolly of the House Oversight Committee, to discuss impeachment. Both Speaker Pelosi and Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler have both said Trump’s refusal to honor Democratic subpoenas makes up a “constitutional crisis.”

 

Well, what are they waiting for?

 

 

Better poll numbers.

If all the people testify in front of the House? Ya right! 

 

Trump knows no one read the book the "Mueller Report." Trump's terrified the Mueller report, "The Movie" will be made. And America will see people talking about the President ordering obstruction, telling people like McGhan to lie about it, more on Russian hotels, Russian meetings and everything! 

 

Nice set up for 2020!

i have sadly had to cancel subscriptions (some since 1985) from liberal magazines of "culture" that have totally lost any reason to be read since Trump won

And that idiot accused me of being bipartisan.

I have to remind people all the time Trumps election did not represent a win for the right over the left. It represented a win for ‘out’ over the ‘in’. And now the inside the beltway crowd is working overtime to expel him from the bloodstream. They can’t afford to have the citizens know what’s been going on in their little swamp!

he was clearly the better option for President

 

For my interest since 1972, the US has only biffed it with Carter in 1976, but a pass is given after Watergate and Vietnam

My point being that it’s not at all surprising to me that a republican or two would call for impeachment. I’m shocked that even more haven’t! Having an outsider in the White House is very dangerous to the swamp dwellers.
