The farcical hearings yesterday were intentionally conducted on the very day the IG report was released so as to be a shiny object distracting the country from findings of the DOJ Inspector General. To add more farce to the pile today dems are introducing two articles of impeachment, presumably the ones that had the best resonance in focus groups- abuse of power and obstruction of justice.
As Andy McCarthy notes, it is abuse of power and obstruction of justice to investigate democrat corruption:
The public wonders: Whats the rush? After all, Democrats apparently didnt think the crisis was so dire that their Thanksgiving holiday should be postponed. In 11 months, the American people will be able to boot President Trump from office if they believe he is unfit. So why should the political class be permitted to pre-empt voters?Indeed and thus today dems enacted their mission of vengeance on Trump for winning the 2016 election.Finally, Democrats have come up with an answer: Trump must be removed, because he is bent on colluding with foreign powers to interfere in our elections; he will do it again if he isnt stripped of power.
Again, of course, hearkens back to the Democrats Russia collusion narrative. They cant let go of that narrative, notwithstanding the fact that the Mueller probe debunked it. In their revisionist history, Trumps quip that he hoped Russia would find the 30,000 emails Hillary Clinton destroyed somehow proves the scheme that a score of aggressive prosecutors couldnt find.
Plainly, Trump was trying to draw attention to his opponents misconduct. Indeed, the theory of the investigators and Democrats, for two years running, was that Trump was a hireling of the Kremlin, not that he was giving Putin orders.
The point is this: Democrats regard as impeachable interference any effort to investigate or draw attention to their known or suspected misconduct.
Nadler led off the nonsense:
Our President holds the ultimate public trust, Nadler said. When he betrays that trust, and puts himself before country, he endangers the Constitution, he endangers our democracy, and he endangers our national security.Adam Schiff adds to the lies:
The argument Why dont you just wait? amounts to this: Why dont you just let him cheat in one more election? Why not let him cheat just one more time? Why not let him have foreign help just one more time?One more time? That presumes Trump cheated in the 2016- which is absolutely a lie.
Schiff said there was overwhelming evidence against Trump. Then again, it was Schiff who said there was overwhelming evidence for Russian collusion.

I wonder if they are trying to throw him under the bus, so the Hildebeast van get in there?
On the other hand, you knew whom you had gotten mixed up with! Don't be surprised at anything the Party of Hate and Evil might do!
Stalinist show trial
This is why they dropped the bribery charge in the articles. It will be used in the Senate to make testimony from Hunter and Joe Biden irrelevant and thus not explored for the public.
The Senate Republicans have already agreed to this accelerated minimal testimony process to avoid exposing any other money laundering scams that other were running in the Ukraine in addition to the Bidens.
Isn't the above a better explanation for their bizarre antics than merely that "They hate Trump"?
They just want to keep the issue in sight up until the election. They know impeachment will never happen.
Lindsey Graham wants to dispose of this quickly in the Senate because he and some other Republicans stink to high heaven.
The Republic is going to take it up the rear just like it did with the farcical Clinton trial in the Senate.
My contempt for the Republican Party, particularly the Senators, is only a minuscule less than for the Democrats.
“So why should the political class be permitted to pre-empt voters?”
They are backed into a corner:
Trump has clearly shown the voters that Obama/Hillary/Biden policies are bad for jobs and IRA investments.
Another Trump term means:
a. He appoints two maybe three SCOTUS
b. Bankrupt Blue States/Cities will not be bailed out by FEDs like GM was.
c. Healthcare will be made more competitive and cost less showing what a crock 0bama care was.
d. China trade deal will be favorable to US
e. Illegal immigration will cease to be a problem.
can you imagine if it was Trump’s son that was involved with burisma and Trump was running for president against a president Biden? The left would be going absolutely mental- claiming they ‘must investigate for the sake of constitution, sake of national security’ etc- but since the roles are reversed- they attack President Trump for daring to suggest that hunter should have been investigated-
The MSM and the left are scum- through and through scum!
ALL career politicians are unsavory characters. Many are criminals who should be in prison or exiled.
Ain't that the truth !
