The republicans should simply tell all. They won’t be prosecuted.

I refuse to believe that even the Chief Justice of the

Supremes can not put a stop to this crap, unless perhaps he is

part of the coup.

""Here’s what wasn’t shown and that Pelosi ignored in cherry-picked fact sheet she released yesterday:

Republicans are not permitted to call defense witnesses of their own. Democrats are so paranoid about keeping a lid on the proceedings that at least some of the hearings are said to have been conducted in a SCIF that has been, up until now, reserved for holding top secret discussions or for reviewing highly-classified evidence.

This ain’t that.

Americans who are watching these latter-day Democrats should ask themselves if they can do this to a president, what chance they would have against these authoritarians?"

I am of the opinion that the Senate could put an end to this by passing a Senate rule that requires the Senate to accept articles of Impeachment ONLY after:

- the articles have passed the house by a majority
- the vote was a roll call vote
- All evidence supporting impeachment has been made public for no less than 30 days.
- the person impeached has had the opportunity to directly confront all witnesses

- etc (other rules?)

I am thinking that this should be closer to court procedures in a grand jury proceedings.

RE: unconstitutional

Yes, any court of law worth its salt (i.e., not Democrat) would say that the accused, President Trump, has been denied his legal rights under the Constitution. As long as the imbeciles keep this in the House, however, where the rules are determined by the majority party, it is just an exercise by the majority party. If they try to enforce their conclusions, they will be in court about it. That is why it is just a political show; an attempt to thwart the President in his work and to deprive him of reelection by damaging his reputation. That said, I do think the Attorney General would be within the law to shut them down for the stated illegality of their "star chamber." It would be a joy to see them all marched away in orange jumpsuits, but political consequences for that would be more division and probably violence.

Gaetz was alone as I understood it. I am talking about group action, twenty Congressmen at once, for instance. No longer play by the rules of civil order since they have been perverted and weaponized against America.

Since this is not a formal impeachment or grand jury where testimony is secret, I don’t see where house rules apply to non members.

Accordingly, each witness should be asked to sit down with white house attorneys to give an account of what they were asked and how they responded. At the very least I hope each witness is keeping a memo for record of their testimony.

In the end, the house will impeach with 217 votes of rats from safe districts.

Impeachment of our President should be of no concern to us, it’s the RINO’s in the senate that have me worried. Miss Lindsey and even the “turtle” are getting more wobbly every day. It’s hard to believe, but if our President is thrown out of office, it will mean the end of the Republican party. I doubt that anyone who supports President Trump will ever vote for a Republican again, I know I will not.

This bad treasonous circus the dems are in.. it’s not because Trump did anything.. how in the world can they lie about this and the people believe it? that is so disheartening.. that the people can’t see what is going on .. we could stop it... but ignorance is their main tool.

No, Trump has not done anything wrong or illegal or out of place... this impeachment is to UNDO AN ELECTION AND PUT THEIR PERSON IN SO THEY CAN CREATE MORE HAVOC!!!

Why.. WHY .. is the media.. even Fox.. reporting this as if there is a reason to do this.. there is NO REASON.. just to get their power back .!
That is no reason to do this.. it’s overthrowing a government without a shot being fired. ... without a person being indicted. without a single legit cause.. ‘
everything is fine with Trump.. they just want him OUT and their person IN.... that is not how we do it here..

media: stop reporting this as normal or for a cause..
Fox.. don’t do this to your viewers..
Barr: get those reports out STAT!!!

It’s a coup and so far .. successful.. and it’s TREASON!

What you propose is already "rules" for passing articles of impeachment.

What Pelosi and here cohorts are doing is exercising the House power of investigation pursuant to impeachment. Nothing in the House rules delegates this power, so Pelosi and her chosen partners have simply usurped it. This breach is only of House protocol, and as a legal matter, has no ramification.

At any rate, Trump can't be impeached without a vote by the full House. Meanwhile, the press and most of Congress continue as though this irregular process is merely "odd."

I'm not shocked or surprised. Congress is a failed institution. It is not capable of doing the right thing.
