Adam Schiff's New Impeachment Hoax Report Just Debunked By Constitutional Scholar's Testimony At Today's House Judicial Committee Trials
Lawyer, George Washington University Professor, and legal expert Jonathan Turley in his opening statement called Nadler's impeachment inquiry unConstitutional based on the actual debates at the Constitutional Convention during the Impeachment Pseudo-Debates today. In his opening statement, Turley mentions how the Framers of the Constitution specifically removed "maladministration" from the impeachment clause of the Constitution, meaning the Democrat's main argument does not constitute an impeachable offense.
In his argument, he said President Trump had done nothing impeachable and therefore the entire impeachment treasure hunt is unConstitutional. Under questioning from Doug Collins, Turley noted how the Framers of the Constitution considered impeachment as a very important process that should not be sped along, as the House Democrats have been trying to accomplish. He also mentioned, during questioning by Paul Taylor, that the rhetoric surrounding impeachment being focused on whether a person is anti a foreign government interfering in the election effort is a form of censorship and not at the source of the issue, which is whether the President committed bribery, treason, or high crimes and misdemeanors.
Jonathan Turley also said there was no crime committed by President Trump when asked. Instead he said the impeachment treasure hunt was based on hearsay and theories instead of the actual facts of the issue. He also said he thought the evidence given by the Democrats fails to provide any proof of an impeachable offense.
NBC NEWS: The impeachment report by House Democrats is too muddled to change any minds: Impeachment is a political act that relies on making a legal case. And the lawyering in this report is atrocious.

Uh, what impeachment? Any articles presented for a vote yet?
Presented to us by sore losers aka the losing part in an US Presidential Election
It’s a second coup attempt that will fail and they will have a 3rd coup attempt. Why? Because we have yet another attorney general who does nothing. Democrats throwing anyone even remotely connected to Trump in jail 1-2-3 and here we have members of the democrap party involved in blatant sedition who get not so much as a parking ticket while we get nothing but talk.
The Democrat Party lost the White House in 2016
That alone is grounds for removal.
There are two “crimes” at issue:
1. Winning the election despite it being “her turn”.
2. Hurting the delicate, lilac-scented feelz of the Left. .
Yep. I sometimes think Trump has a wish to be removed from office.
What kills me is that Schitttt is doing the SAME THING that he is accusing PDJT of doing... the house is impeaching PDJT because they said he tried to get dirt on quidproquoJoe in order to affect the election. What the house is doing is smearing PDJT in order to affect the 2020 election! It’s totally obvious that is what this is all about.
GRRRRR.
Without having seen any of the hearings today I’m going to go out on a limb and predict the three Constitutional lawyers that the Democrats brought in all agreed that Trump had committed infractions worthy of impeachment. Just a guess.
Good!
Is this still going on? What episode of Trump Wars is this?
#7 - "Rise Of The Eggheads" starring The Round Mound of Pound and his Light Gavel?
Oh well, can't be worse than that one by Avenatti: Trump Wars: The Ho Want Mo'!
They view Trump’s election as a crime, that’s what they are impeaching, OUR VOTES.
Bill Barr is following the law, he sucks
The Andrew Johnson impeachment was very interesting—it really was a policy dispute.
Current historians don’t like to discuss it because the “virtue” side had the phony charges.
In a wonderful irony of history, the liberal icon JFK included a chapter on the Johnson impeachment praising the one senator whose vote acquitted President Johnson. Today that senator would have been attacked as a racist and southern sympathizer.
The JFK book (mostly ghostwritten by Ted Sorenson) was called “Profiles in Courage”).
The left _really_ wants that chapter to go away. ;-)
This is not a trial but an Inquisition. Trump is already guilty of heresy and now needs to confess to being a heretic.
