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


Recommended Posts

Democrats’ ugly Christmas present to the nation

New York Post, by Editorial

 

Original Article

 

House Democrats’ impeachment show moves to Jerry Nadler’s Judiciary Committee this week — but don’t expect the proceedings to get any more serious. Sometime before Nadler starts things off at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Intelligence Committee chief Adam Schiff is supposed to send along his final report — which is apparently to be all the evidence the House will consider on the Ukraine matter, despite the near-complete lack of first-hand testimony. Judiciary is simply going to “consider” whether the wrongdoings that Schiff alleges actually constitute “constitutional grounds for impeachment,” with experts brought in to opine on whether President Trump’s actions warrant such a grave step.

It was so much easier before the internet, Schiff back then would have been writing all the news cue cards for ABC/NBC/CBS to parrot  and nobody would be able to begin to challenge them

 

 

 

True, but without the internet/social media Trump or someone like him isn't elected in the first place and there is no need for the coup and all this nonsense that has followed from it.

Nixon won and faced the toady media’s wrath 

 

i will sadly believe he was guilty but after watching this garbage pile up, there are grounds to maybe doubt it was nothing but a media/Dem crock of crap

This impeachment drive is a huge political bust for Democrats.

Funny part is they are STILL loudly declaring it's a slam dunk on cnn, yahoo, huff etc.

 

However,

 

The Democratic National Committee has a money problem. And that could hurt its nominee’s chances of beating President Donald Trump in 2020.

In the first four months of 2019, the party spent more than it raised and added $3 million in new debt. In the same period, its Republican counterpart was stockpiling cash.
 
Shocking.

Trump lawyers to Jerry Nadler: We won’t participate in your sham Wednesday law professor hearing

 

The impeachment torch is about to be passed from Adam Schiff (House Intelligence Committee) to Jerry Nadler (House Judiciary Committee).

Nadler scheduled a “hearing” for Wednesday, but it’s not an evidentiary hearing and the witnesses (as of this writing) are unknown.

 

What is known it that there will be three pro-impeachment law professors called by Democrats to opine on what constitutes an impeachable offense. (Spoiler — if Democrats are calling the law professors, they will opine that anything and everything Trump did is an impeachable offense). Republicans will be allowed one legal expert to say the opposite.

 

In other words, it’s a show hearing, meant to give the pro-impeachment mainstream media a news cycle dominated (by numbers) by pro-impeachment opinions.

 

Trump’s lawyers sent a letter tonight to Nadler rejecting the premise and procedure of the hearing, and refusing to participate. Politico reports:

Hey whatever

 

this is how a story works in our society

 

a key witness is asked what evidence there is, says his speculations, this is totally ignored by the press

 

good enough for the media and those who believe it

Because the DNC is not interested in what's best for the country. They're not interested in due process or actual justice. 

 

They want their power back. 

 

Nothing more. 

 

Enemies of the people.


They've got a funny way of going about it. <_<

Gosh, golly and gee, this little tidbit from Catherine Herridge about the whistleblower seems kinda sorta important, yeah?

Especially since they are moving into a new ‘phase’ of the impeachment circus.

 

 

 

 

The wording was confusing? Huh?

Alrighty then.

From CBS:

CBS News has reviewed documents that show the anonymous whistleblower reached out to the intelligence community watchdog on October 8 to clarify the nature of his or her contact with Democratic majority staff of the House Intelligence Committee before the complaint was filed.

The whistleblower acknowledged reaching out to the committee, but claimed that nothing substantial was discussed and that the staff member directed them to go through official channels, according to the “Memorandum of Investigative Activity,” provided to House and Senate Intelligence Committee leadership by intelligence community inspector general (ICIG) Michael Atkinson. The form is dated October 18 and documents the October 8 outreach by the whistleblower.

Republicans have seized on the contact with Democratic committee staff to question the credibility of the whistleblower, while Democrats have downplayed the significance.

Of course Democrats are downplaying this, they need the leaker … sorry, the whistleblower … to be credible.

 

 

 

Pretty tricking wording there. "Congress or congressional committee(s)."


Easy to see how someone smart enough to work for the CIA would get confused.

I'm going to guess the release is either going to be Wednesday morning, or whatever the second day is going to be, just to crap on Nadler's show trial...

Reverse psychology/pity votes. If they act stupidly and self-destructive enough, people will feel badly for them and elect them!

Reading between the lines, I'm guessing that the attorney withdrew because Biden is pulling something that is unethical.


Changing lawyers buys you some time from facing justice

So if the Senate was Dem majority then Trump would be kicked out without a shred of credible evidence presented?

 

careful what you wish for liberals....  you won’t last two seconds in a real crisis, you never have before...

I've been gone since just before the holiday.

 

Is it over? Is he impeached? Did they provide the proof? Is Pence the new president?

 

No?

 

Not yet?

 

Geez. It's almost like they don't have a case at all and are just trying to remove Trump from office because he beat Hillary.

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.  


I will.  :wallbash:  ?

Is this the part of the process where a bunch of 'scholars' tell the nation that we should proceed to a trial when NONE of the 'witnesses' can testify to having actually witnessed ANYTHING , or having ANY first hand knowledge of the events, or can even state a SINGLE crime that they believe was committed!  This should make for some great theater.
