Nancy has practice at subverting the Constitution.

Great post. Thanks
What Pelosi is doing is immoral, unprecedented and simply wrong and unfair to Trump.
But I’m still not convinced that there is anything in the law, the Constitution or the House rules that would prevent her from conducting her secret investigation.
If this was an illegal action I would expect a lawsuit from Trump.
OTOH, I still have hopes that Trump will eat away at whatever thin vote margin Pelosi has as the polls come in showing these idiot Democrats how stupid they are, particularly in light of the zero evidence of an impeachable crime.
This weekends events are not working in Pelosi’s favor or, in fact, for the many Republicans and Generals who are still wiping the egg of their face as I type this.
bkmk
All this is about a “leak-fest” where the Dems can leak fake news to the press. The shoe is about to drop on them and this is an attempt to deflect it. Not gonna work, guys...
Bump
Yes, it is! Ping for later re-reading. Thanks!
Why vote now? I thought the Scheming and Deeming Nancy Pelosi can just deem that the impeachment inquiry already started - just like "deeming" that ObamaCare was good-to-go out of the House. Why the change?
Impeachment IS a Bill of Attainder, but it is specifically provided for in the Constitution as an exception to the general rule against such.
They just realized that this was Hillary’s plan for Nixon...which was called unconstitutional as it denied Nixon right to counsel during the inquiry.
since the party took control of the House, though it isn’t clear for what offense.
The offense was winning the election.
THIS is sedition.
Nothing less.
I hope we have the moral courage to do what is right.
Thanks for posting the article.
Nancy has said now that she converted her copy of the Constitution to toilet paper sized sheets her rear end feels better lately.
Let’s see if we can change that.
This Impeachment Subverts the Constitution

Right in line with all the other socialistic crap. Would be nice if for a chance they would care about this country, but that’s not in their playbook.
It isn’t clear why they have been seeking impeachment since he was elected?
WTF?
THEY HATE THAT THEY CANNOT CONTROL HIM! HE DOESN”T NEED THEM!
Now, with that cleared up...
They intend to use OBSTRUCTION as a HIGH CRIME OR MISDEMEANOR to fulfill the Constitutional requirement for Impeachment.
And, they will document EVERY instance of whatever they deem to be ‘obstruction’ to make their case.
Russia? Trump obstructed the investigation on many occasions, including remarks about Mueller, Comey, McCabe, an others.
FISA Court? Trump obstructed the issues by firing Comey.
The Wall? Trump obstructed Congressional attempts to defund the work, etc.
The INQUIRY? Trump obstructed near every attempt to have someone from the administration testify before Schiff’s Kangaroo Court.
They will hang their hats on OBSTRUCTION to impeach this duly elected President.
They will, also, unleash the full fury of the great Silent Majority out here in fly over country.
It will be shortest Civil War in human history...
WSJ is screwing up. By getting this article from msn.com, you can bypass the WSJ paywall completely.
Great article.
In fact Congress voted it DOWN three times...How can they start up an impeachment inquiry in opposition to the voice of Congress???
This faux impeachment is a test to see if the demonrats can actually get away with this. They are learning what the general public will and will not take from their actions. The strategy was not because it was Trump, the strategy has always been if the demonrats lost power, controlled only one part of the legislative branch, and stacked the courts, could they throw out a sitting President, whomever it may be. This is an exercise to been seen if it succeeds to be accelerated the next time any person other than a demonrat gains the White House. This isn’t about Trump as Trump is the scapegoat, this is about something else in its entirety. This is not about the Gore loss nor the Clinton Impeachment. This isn’t about Hitlary losing. This is the strategic plan to overthrow the Executive branch at will by the demonrat party. The call for impeaching Trump went out long before election night in 2016. That voice was squashed because it came too early. Comey, Clapper and Brennan were following much a much higher power and the insurance policy had been in the works no matter which repube won office. If you look at the early, very early, tweets they do not mention Trump. The so-called insurance policy had been in the works for years. What is going on is Chicago-land politics and its being played out in front the American people.
The hate for Trump was never about Trump, it came for the hate of the right. The guy/gal who won was going to be the du jour scapegoat for that vitriol. When people start to wake up about this aspect of what is going on and see the bird in the forest, then and only then can we start to recover from this nightmare. The repubes will eventually try to mount a revenge campaign, but it won’t work because they are fighting an ideology not a person. That is why the war on terrorism has failed miserably. It is why the repubes will fail miserably. The demonrats are already 10 steps ahead and that might be 10 steps too much for America.

I've been calling for Roberts to declare a summary judgment, with a directed verdict to acquit, stating that the articles of impeachment are flawed, that they are based on unproven hearsay by biased witnesses, that the procedures that produced them in the House were illegitimate and violated due process, that there were no "high crimes and misdemeanors" committed by the President, and that the nation would be severely harmed by proceeding with this when an election is less than a year away.-PJ
