Only the out of touch DNC could come up with this idea... what's more boring and off putting for the average American to listen to than a bunch of self aggrandizing bureaucrats?

 

A bunch of self aggrandizing lawyers. 

 

No one will watch this.  

 

Why didn't they just hire CNN to testify?

 

Hell, Noah Feldberg's a Bloomberg opinion columnist.  How many federal election laws and regulations are they breaking with that invitation?

Noah Feldman: Constitutional "scholar" who specializes in Islamic Legal Studies and admires sharia law.

 

Pamela Karlan: "Voting rights" expert.

 

Michael Gerhardt: Actually seems to have some qualifications to testify. Expert in relationship between Presidents and Congress, including writing treatises on impeachment.

 

Jonathan Turley: TV Liberal pundit.

 

Should be a good schiffshow.

Giuliani associate asks court to release documents to impeachment inquiry

An indicted associate of Rudy Giuliani, President Trump’s personal attorney, wants to give congressional impeachment investigators access to materials that were seized during his arrest earlier this year, his lawyer said Monday at a court hearing. 

A lawyer for Lev Parnas asked a federal court in Manhattan for the materials to be released to the Democratic-led House committees, according to ABC News. The outlet previously reported that lawmakers who are helping to lead the impeachment inquiry into Trump are already in possession of recordings and photographs from Parnas.

The materials were seized when the Soviet-born associate of Giuliani was arrested for allegedly violating campaign finance law. Parnas and another Giuliani associate, Igor Fruman, were arrested on Oct. 9 at Dulles International Airport.

A sign of the times, that historians one day will puzzle over: Psychiatrists Organize Campaign to Declare Trump ‘Dangerous,’ Back Impeachment. The campaign involves the usual suspects:

Psychiatrists with the World Mental Health Coalition are soliciting signatures in a campaign to support the impeachment of President Donald Trump predicated on claims that he is mentally unstable.

Or, put another way, on the ground that he is a Republican.

In an email forwarded to PJ Media, three psychiatrists with the coalition ask other psychiatrists to sign on to a petition to the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee to include a statement on Trump’s supposed mental instability into the official record of the impeachment inquiry.

Dr. Bandy Lee, a forensic psychiatrist at Yale School of medicine; Dr. Jerrold Post, a psychiatrist and political psychologist who founded the CIA’s Center for Analysis of Personality and Political Behavior; and Dr. John Zinner, a clinical professor in the Psychiatry Department of the George Washington University School of Medicine, wrote the petition and statement condemning Trump.

These Democratic Party activists have been at it for a while, so far without success:

The pro-impeachment statement is one in a long line of psychiatric attacks on Trump, the petition explains. “A group of us first outlined our concerns at a conference at Yale School of Medicine in April 2017, when the majority of the public believed the president was ‘settling in.’ This was followed by a public-service book, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 37 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President, which many say predicted the course of this presidency. Thousands of others joined us to form a professional association known as the World Mental Health Coalition.”

Whatever. These people have never met the president, and have no basis to offer a “diagnosis” of his mental health. I believe they are violating recognized standards in their profession by issuing groundless opinions of this sort.

 

Moreover, they have a hard time keeping their story straight. Is Trump a warmonger, or a Putin stooge who will let Russia rampage over Eastern Europe? Or is he neither, but an America-first president who wants to end long-term conflicts in places like Afghanistan? If Trump is “unstable,” why has he hewed consistently to such a coherent, and successful, set of policy preferences? If he is a threat to the Republic, why has his administration ushered in unprecedented levels of employment and income, and especially benefited minority populations, while maintaining peace abroad?

If these “mental health professionals” were as successful as President Trump, they would have something better to do than carry water for the intellectually bankrupt Democratic Party.

Not to mention completely unethical.

 

And in violation of the American Psychiatric Association's Principles of Medical Ethics, Section 7 (also known as The Goldwater Rule)

 

On occasion psychiatrists are asked for an opinion about an individual who is in the light of public attention or who has disclosed information about himself/herself through public media. In such circumstances, a psychiatrist may share with the public his or her expertise about psychiatric issues in general. However, it is unethical for a psychiatrist to offer a professional opinion unless he or she has conducted an examination and has been granted proper authorization for such a statement

Why it matters: Republicans are using a debunkedconspiracy theory that Ukraine meddled in the 2016 presidential election to justify President Trump's decision to freeze congressionally approved aid to the country.

AN IMPEACHMENT PREVIEW

As the Schiff show moves from the House Intelligence Committee to the nattering nabobs of Nadlerism on the House Judiciary Committee, the curtain goes up tomorrow. Schiff’s impeachment report is to be released later today, but House Intelligence Committee Republicans have already filed their 133-page report summarizing the case against impeachment; the Wall Street Journal has posted it online here.

 

Wednesday’s Judiciary Committee hearing is to take up the constitutional basis of impeachment with four law professors who have just been identified. Democrats will call Harvard Law Professor Noah Feldman, Stanford Law Professor Pamela Karlan, and UNC Law Professor Michael Gerhardt. Republicans will call George Washington University Law School Professor Jonathan Turley, who airs his view The Hill column “Watergate line speaks volumes about weak impeachment case.”

It's been proved, partisan blindness blocks you accepting the truth. 

 

Do do you think it would be bad if Trump were beholden in any way to a monster like Putin? Or would it be no big deal? 


seriously, prove it. 
 

I read the Axios debunked article and it was nothing but assumptions, and conjecture essentially based on the legal strategy of snark.
