The Sham Impeachment Inquiry & Whistleblower Saga: A Race to Get Ahead of the OIG


Recommended Posts

It looks like what it is, a political show trial by a bunch of frustrated, angry apparatchiks who don’t have much of anything solid to work with.

 

And, seen on Facebook: “It’s like Watergate, but with morons.”

 

 

 

Turley: Under Democrats’ ‘Abuse of Power’ Standard, Obama Could Have Been Impeached. 

 

 

 

 

REP. MATT GAETZ (R-FL) JUST BROUGHT A BLOW TORCH TO THE IMPEACHMENT HEARINGS AND SET A GLORIOUS BONFIRE: “‘To all of the witnesses: if you have personal knowledge of a single material fact in the Schiff report, please raise your hand.’ *silence*”

He abused the power of his office to extort a foreign ally at war with an adversary to dig up dirt on a political rival at home that would benefit his reelection campaign. 

 

The executive conducting foreign policy in ways that comply with our existing treaties is now impeachable.

 

Reap the whirlwind, stupid.

I was going to post the other day, when I heard that Jonathan Turley was going to appear, that he's an excellent and balanced law prof and that they made a mistake inviting him. 

i for one would have liked it had he been allowed to speak more. watching his body language yesterday, while others spoke was amusing.

Turley confessed, “The use of military aid for a quid pro quo to investigate one’s political opponent, if proven, can be an impeachable offense.”

 

This was the Republican witness


Stabbing someone in the heart to kill them, if proven, can be a prosecutable offense.

Turley acknowledged, “[Trump’s] call was anything but ‘perfect’ and his reference to the Bidens was highly inappropriate.”

 

So Sondland told two friends, and they told two friends, and they told two friends ……

Looks like Nancy is going full steam ahead with impeachment...

"Today I am asking our chairman to proceed with articles of impeachment."

Thelma and Louise ain't got nuthin' on today's Democrats. 

 

Are they even the least bit conscious of the precedent they're setting?

But not impeachable.

I have to be right, my print is larger.

Morning third, hope all is well with you

 

Turley also confessed, “The use of military aid for a quid pro quo to investigate one’s political opponent, if proven, can be an impeachable offense.”

Probably, but they've never cared about long-term consequences, especially when they can just pretend to be victims when their own tactics and precedents are used against them.

Long term consequences are foremost on their minds, if a president can pressure foreign countries to help his/her reelection our republic is in serious trouble

they don't care about anything or anyone but themselves and their feelings at the moment

 

then again, 90% of us wouldn't be here if liberals thought a few seconds about the consequences of their actions

  Doubtful.  But if they are aware of the concept of "turnabout is fair play" they no doubt have a plan concocted to have the Republican Party outlawed as a hate group if not before 2020 then very likely by 2024.

He confessed? If proven? You're an idiot.

I loved it how none of these so called scholars ever mentioned that the founding fathers apparently never considered what would happen when a sitting president uncovers the fact that the PREVIOUS administration may have committed a crime.THAT is the central legal question that should govern this debate. (Scholars, my butt!) If they had considered it I’m pretty sure they would have said the sitting President is under an OBLIGATION to ask that the Attorney General look into it immediately!  Which...is exactly what Trump did. These geniuses are total clowns.

Presidential Misconduct: Some Historical Perspective

by David Harsanyi

 

Original Article

 

 

This week, Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee trotted out a trio of dispassionate legal experts to explain why the impeachment of Donald Trump was justified. They were there to bring a veneer of gravitas and erudition to what’s been, until now, a highly partisan affair. But however smart people such as Michael Gerhardt, distinguished professor of constitutional law at University of North Carolina, might be, they aren’t immune from peddling partisan absurdities. Once Gerhardt argued that Trump’s conduct was “worse than the misconduct of any prior president,” we no longer had any intellectual obligation to take him seriously on the topic.

Evidence-Starved Democrats, Like Oliver Twist, Know They Need 'More

Issues & Insights, by The Editorial Board

 

Original Article

 

The Washington Post editorial Wednesday on the House Intelligence Committee’s impeachment report gave the game away.

 

“The Democratic report lacks direct testimony of Mr. Trump confirming the quid pro quo … It also acknowledges ‘unanswered questions’” – and “the speedy referral” of the impeachment inquiry from the intelligence panel to the House Judiciary Committee “smacks of political expediency.”

 

Intel panel chairman Adam Schiff was urged to do some more digging so the committee can “provide a fuller and, to many Americans, more persuasive picture of his guilt,” the Post’s editorial board said under the title, “There’s more to learn” – perhaps the Freudian slip of the year.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: What Did We Learn From the Impeachment Hearing? 

 

“Rounding up a few academics to complain about any Republican isn’t exactly a daunting task. That’s like wandering around Hyannis Port in the summertime and bumping into a drunk Kennedy.”

  Absence of black impeachment witnesses?  WTF?  Witnesses should be limited to those who have first hand factual relevant evidence of which there is none.
