-Two dozen it is, sir.
-The man is dead, sir.
-Dead?
-Shall l dismiss the men, sir?
-What?
Certainly not.
We'll proceed with punishment.
Boatswain, do your duty.

Maybe not, but they can prosecute. That POS wray will enjoy doing it.
He is right in that a former president cannot be impeached.
This Gateway stuff has been moved to bloggers.
You might take a hint from that.
Probably why clyburn wants to wait until buyDUNG has been in office for a hundred days. Fookin’ idjit!
There are no timing limitations on the use of the Impeachment process in the Constitution. So there is no limit in the Constitution for impeaching someone after they have left office.
There are Senate and House rules regarding impeachment but rules can be changed with a majority vote.
I saw Dershowitz on Maria’s show this AM..
Since impeachment is to remove a sitting President, you can’t hold a trial to convict and remove - when the President is no longer in office. As an example, Dersh said we could not impeach and hold a trial against Clinton, Obama, etc at this point. Heck, if you could impeach and convict a former President, I suppose we could go all the way back..
Of course, little things like the Constitution seem to basically not matter to many any longer, so all bets are off as to what these idiots will try.
Funny thing. I just said those words on another thread a minute ago. The House cannot impeach private citizens.
Bread and circuses.
Oh please like the law or rules matter
It’s so stupid
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor,
Wouldn’t Congress indicting/trying a private citizen constitute a Bill of Attainder? And doesn’t the Constitution specifically ban them?
Legal issue could go either way.
The winning argument might be that a political majority might start impeaching and disqualifying their opponents after every election.
Which of course is exactly what democrats are doing.
The House can send the articles of impeachment to a floor vote next week, that is the first step of the impeachmemnt process, the Senate conviction trial is down the road.
They want to impeach him this week. They can if they have the votes.
He can then be tried in the Senate. But the Senate can not take up the case until after January 20 at 12:00. The question is can they try and convict him after he leaves office? There, I think Roberts says the case is moot.
That’s cute how he thinks the constitution still matters to Democrats.
Impeachment is a House function, the Senate has nothing to say about it.
Democrats have never cared about the law, and they still don’t.
These Rats and RINOs have no idea what they are doing. And that is the only thing consistent about them. Bring impeachment on. Trump will be the first President ever to be impeached twice and not removed from office. Trump will become more powerful and his followers, all 75+ million, will stand firmly at his side. This nation will be divided, as it should be. No compromise with the enemy. Either they submit to our will and the US Constitution or they go down.
