B-Man Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Pelosi is now planning to finally have a vote on Tuesday on sending the articles forward. But looks like she’s trying to pull one more card out of her sleeve. She’s claiming that she could still subpoena former national security adviser John Bolton, despite the fact that they’ve already done their investigation and had the vote on impeachment. From Washington Times: “It’s not excluded,” she said Sunday during an interview with ABC’s “This Week,” when asked about a subpoena for Mr. Bolton. “We do think there is enough evidence to remove the president.” “We have done our job,” she added. “We hope the Senate would do that as well.” [….] “It’s about a fair trial. They take an oath to have a fair trial and we think that would be with witnesses and documentation,” Ms. Pelosi said. “Now, the ball is in their court to either do that or pay the price,” she added about the upper chamber, controlled by Republicans. So she still wants to call him after they already had a vote? I thought they had “overwhelming evidence?” So why would they need to call him? The House is supposed to be the investigatory stage. That’s done with the vote. Pelosi is also likely to find that a court would find any attempt to subpoena him moot at this point since the House already voted for impeachment. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 ...r u 'effin kidding me?...FISA wants legitimacy?.....oh boy......... FBI Published 47 mins ago Last Update 5 mins ago FISA selects former Obama admin lawyer, left-wing blogger to oversee FBI's surveillance reforms By Gregg Re | Fox News The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) has stunned court-watchers by selecting David Kris -- a former Obama administration lawyer who has appeared on "The Rachel Maddow Show" and written extensively in support of the FBI's surveillance practices on the left-wing blog Lawfare -- to oversee the FBI's implementation of reforms in the wake of a damning Department of Justice Inspector general report last year. The development on Friday, first reported by independent journalist Mike Cernovich, has roiled Republicans who have demanded accountability at the FBI. House Intelligence Commitee ranking member Devin Nunes, R-Calif., told The Daily Caller that Kris' appointment was "shocking" and "inexplicable." "It’s hard to imagine a worse person the FISC could have chosen outside [James] Comey, [Andy] McCabe, or [Adam] Schiff,” Nunes said. Speaking to Fox News contributor Sara Carter, Nunes added: “It’s a ridiculous choice. The FBI lied to the FISC, and to help make sure that doesn’t happen again, the FISC chose an FBI apologist who denied and defended those lies. The FISC is setting its own credibility on fire.” https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fisa-selects-former-obama-admin-lawyer-left-wing-blogger-to-oversee-fbis-surveillance-reforms 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Pelosi Declares, ‘One Way or Another,’ Trump Will Not Be President in Ten Months; Scalise Destroys Her Now, we know that Democrats have basically been trying to impeach President Donald Trump to a greater or lesser degree since he was elected. What’s his real crime? He won and threw them out of power. And that’s unforgivable, to them. They’ve been desperately searching for the magic key to get him out and/or severely injure his chances of getting re-elected. While we know that’s what they’ve been about, they’ve never been more blunt and explicit about it than House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) was on Sunday during an interview with ABC News. Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) busted her on it, but good. Indeed, the language she used was concerning He will be removed “one way or another?” What the heck is she saying there? It sounds threatening and not at all “prayerful.” As Scalise says, “It’s clear: Impeachment was a Democrat hit job to stain Trump’s legacy and hurt him at the polls. Nothing more.” Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) was on it too They wanted to be able to say he’s “impeached forever”, which they are — even using it as a hashtag. We knew that, but now Pelosi has as much as admitted it. . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 So Trump is accused of using a FOREIGN government to bloody up the reputation of a political rival? How is that any different than Adam, Jerry, Nancy, Elizabeth, Bernie and the rest of them using our own DOMESTIC government to bloody up the reputation of their political rival? Hmmmm?

B-Man Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Nancy Pelosi was a guest on ABC’s “This Week” yesterday where the House Speaker shifted into shamelessness overdrive in order to serve up the Democrat spin over impeachment and Iran.

Doc Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 The Dems and MSM fantasized that Nanny had leverage. Just like they fantasized about Russian collusion and are continuing to fantasize about getting him removed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Senate doesn't even have to let the Chief Justice (or the House Impeachment managers) in the freakin' building. Of course, it's the same dimwits that thought the GOP Electors were going to rebel from their Electoral College duties and vote for Hillary anyhow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Nancy Pelosi is trying really hard to pretend the House did their job when working on the articles of impeachment around Trump, but anyone who has been paying any attention to this mess knows this is a bunch of malarky. From whining about McConnell not allowing an unbiased trial (funny, right?) to babbling nonstop about how the Senate should call more witnesses (that they chose not to), she’s really all-in on making it seem like it’s the Senate’s fault when Trump is acquitted. Remember, she didn’t want to impeach Trump in the first place but she gave in and now she’s having to ‘fix it’ for the Democrats. As Brit Hume points out, this is not working in her favor: What Nancy really means when she says ‘fair trial’ is, ‘ Do it my way so Americans don’t see what a crappy and partisan job we did in the House.’ But their vapid base doesn’t seem to know that, so they’ll keep pretending this is somehow on McConnell. And that same vapid base will eat it up with a spoon because orange man bad. https://twitchy.com/samj-3930/2020/01/14/purely-political-brit-hume-takes-nancy-pelosis-main-talking-point-about-a-fair-trial-in-the-senate-apart-in-just-1-tweet/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the House's duty to make a case in the House of Representatives. It's the Senate's duty to try that case, not a new case brought about by the House in the Senate. Brit Hume is right on the money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
