Three GOP Senators Have Yet to Back Movement to Condemn Democrat Impeachment Practices
Breitbart ^ | 25 Oct 2019 | Sean Moran

Posted on 10/25/2019 6:11:02 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Three Republican senators have yet to back a resolution to condemn House Democrats’ secret, closed-door impeachment inquiry practices. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Senate Judiciary Committee Lindsey Graham (R-SC) introduced a resolution Thursday night to condemn House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) secretive impeachment inquiry proceedings.

Graham announced Friday that the resolution had gained 50 cosponsors across the Senate Republican conference; three senators have yet to cosponsor the resolution sign on.

Sen. Johnny Isakson’s (R-GA) office told Breitbart News that the senator wants to ensure that the impeachment inquiry remains a “fair process.”

The three Republican senators that have yet to back the impeachment resolution are Sens. Mitt Romney (R-UT), Lisa Murkowski (R-UT), and Susan Collins (R-ME).

Even though these senators have yet to cosponsor the resolution, this does not mean that they may not cosponsor the resolution in the future or vote for the bill should it come to the Senate floor for a vote.

Sen. Murkowski’s office told Breitbart News that the senator has yet to review the Graham resolution.

Sens. Romney and Collins did not respond to a request for comment from Breitbart News.

Republicans’ fight against the House Democrats’ secretive impeachment inquiry practices has quickly become a rallying cry for the GOP.

Graham announced during a press conference Thursday that his and McConnell’s resolution gained 41 cosponsors. Now, the resolution nearly has the backing of the entire Senate Republican conference.

Conservative activist groups have also backed the bill. The Club for Growth “key voted” the Graham-McConnell resolution, and the Tea Party Patriots Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin praised McConnell’s bill.

Senators have backed the resolution Friday, decrying the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry as “one-sided.”

I imagine that she is in a “rut” but Lisa Murkowski is not currently a (R-UT).

Not a surprise.

“Sens. Mitt Romney (R-UT), Lisa Murkowski (R-UT), and Susan Collins (R-ME). “

Don’t kid yourself.

A majority of GOP Senators declined a “will not convict under these conditions” resolution.

The three “super RINOs.” The only one of them that is honest about not being anywhere near a conservative is Susan Collins (she should just vote “present” and stay out of it). The other two are frauds - the “severe conservative” Romney and Murkowksi, who has no reason to fear a primary challenge as she won without even being on the ballot as a write-in candidate when she lost the nomination in 2010.

She always looks like she’s got a yeast infection. Romney walks like he’s got a stick up his ass. Collins talks like her skull is full of Jello.

That’s what happens when you re-elect Amnesty Senators.

I suggest all 3 of these RINOs meetin the WH with Mitch and the Prez. It is time for the GOP to stop playing the MSM + DNC game of inane so called bi-partisan-ship as long as they play by Dem lib rules.

Even if they’re super jealous of Trump, you’d think they’d still oppose a Star Chamber style secret lynching with annonymous and possibly non- existent witnesses spewing innuendo and hearsay behind closed doors. But no, these three don’t give a sh@t about our due process or equal protection rights.
