Pelosi directs House Democrats to proceed with articles of impeachment against Trump

[Chomsky]

So is this what I can look forward to seeing now when I ask a legitimate question?

What case does she have???

Are you following the thread? Look at the thread title:

"Pelosi directs House Democrats to proceed with articles of impeachment against Trump"

The topic is "impeachment".

So a subpoena from the House to an equal branch of the gov't requires the Executive branch of the gov't to comply? LOL, amazing how civics challenged many people are

The historic trial in the Senate will indeed be fascinating if it even gets there. The Democrats are going to have to answer questions and it is't going to be pretty but it will be fascinating to watch. Your support for the left is appreciated by the leadership of the left but doesn't do much for your credibility.

You believe there is compelling evidence? where is it? You want me to post again Sondland's testimony to Schiff?

The subpoena—yes, it does! Congress has oversight over the Executive. Remember—constitutional checks and balances from fifth grade? Come on! You can do better than that! ...maybe not?

It will indeed be fascinating. Hopefully, the Republicans in the Senate will not exhibit the childish behavior we’ve seen in the House! History will take a dim view of their tactics.

You’re wasting your time with comrade Oborosen. He’s a disinformation engine.

Oversight but not control and that seems to be the problem today, a radical house trying to control the Executive Branch and spending 3 years trying to overturn election results. With Trump having a 53% approval rating on the economy that doesn't bode well for the Democrats in 2020 as the American people will always vote their pocket books. Ukraine is irrelevant, 266,000 jobs created last month is as is the 6.5 million new jobs created in 3 years, 7% U-6 rate, 5.5% African American unemployment rate

So doing something rotten and thinking about doing something rotten are equivalent and should be treated the same?

Attempt is a crime in many situations.

 

[Nalu]

What I mean is the Senate can vote on a simple majority to disallow him from running in 2020. That's an option instead of removal and has been done previously.

How does that work?

Trump’s performance as President (good or bad) is no excuse for Constitutional violations—and you know it! If Trump didn’t engage in questionable behavior, there would be nothing to investigate. He feeds the dems this stuff on purpose to stir the pot of division (or maybe he just can’t help being corrupt). He is arguably the worst President in history.

Constitutional violations? Really? You are smarter than this, stop buying rhetoric and get the facts, facts matter, not opinions or spin. what constitutional violations?

Bribery is a violation of the Constitution.

Time for the Facts Tax. Give it up.

Except there was no bribery,

People want to say the meetings were conditioned on investigations, ignore the fact that he actually invited Zelensky 3 times without conditions placed on it.

Then people want to say the aid was conditioned, not only is there no corroboration of that, but more than half the aid went through, and the rest was held for NUMEROUS reasons,

People say, well he didn't have to say I am going to bribe you.......in one conversation...but then bring up the fact that he didn't use the word corruption, in another, so which is it? Does he have to be specific or doesn't he? You guys are making this **** up as you go along.

Oh, we’re going to see the facts on his tax! That is definitely coming, and I can’t wait. It will be enlightening. That’s why he’s resisted.

 

[redrover]

Yep. Though I'm sure Trump learned his lesson last time from the spanking Pelosi gave him.

Are our Republican friends really going to support Trump's assertion that congress doesn't have the authority to impeach him? Apparently they are unless they can call in witnesses to turn the hearings to turn the hearings into a total circus.

That’s why we need to hear from all the witnesses—especially the ones Trump blocked.

LOL Lying Libs salivate over another rich man's bank account statements because their own statements reflect their poor spending habits so what better way to keep money coming into their greedy hands? By stealing from someone else.

When was bribery proven? Not sure what country you live in as I always believed Hawaii was part of this one but one is innocent until proven guilty and as Turley stated there is no compelling evidence to justify impeachment thus no crime proven

Let's not forget that every candidate running for President is a multi millionaire now trying to destroy the economy that benefited them hoping to create additional dependent voters who never bite the hand that feeds them thus creating career positions and more power

didn't I just read that Obama bought mansion in Martha Vineyards? Isn't it great how public servants become so rich?

Oooh you gonna make em froth at the mouth over this one! LOL!

When faced with facts, the Lying Lib resorts to insults!

Think of the impeachment as an indictment of the President. The trial will make the final determination. Let’s see what the Articles of Impeachment say, and then continue our debate.

Please point to the testimony that proves bribery? The articles of Impeachment will be a continuation of the lies and distortions of the Democratic political machine totally ignoring the actual facts. Turley did quite well explaining it but that doesn't budge partisans.

Oh no you don't. You charged the President of the United States with bribery. Where is the direct source that proves such? The burden of proof is on you. I know Libs hate to prove anything factual.

No...the burden of proof is on Congress.

And you as well. Don't shift blame. Accept that you cannot provide facts that shows he committed bribery.

You seem confused so here’s my advice: read the Articles of Impeachment when they come out next week.

Enjoy.
