Question: Does Nancy Pelosi's so-called whistle-blower protection law override the constitution, ie, doesn't the accused have the constitutional right to face and question his accuser?
This is a lynching in progress.
The President wants the name of the person that gave the information to the “whistleblower”. He said “ you know what we use to do with people like that”. This is gonna get great real fast.
And Jim we are letting it ride instead of organizing a march to D.C.!! Optics my friend optics can cause D.C. nerves to come unhinged!! We the American people hold the power!!!
This is a lynching in progress.
AMEN.
Constitution???
What Constitution?
> ...doesn’t the accused have the constitutional right to face and question his accuser? <
Impeachment is a political process, and not a criminal one. So I don’t think the accused has the right to face his accuser.
But yes, this is most certainly a lynching. And every last GOP senator should acknowledge that fact right now, today. But as we all know, many GOP senators are Deep State actors. They would be secretly happy to see Trump gone, and the status quo restored.
This is an interesting comment. The “whistleblower” may have protection but his/her sources will not. They are effectively leakers because information ended up in the NYT/WP before Trump had to declassify. Prosecute them!
Haven’t you heard Nancy Pelosi on the Constitution? She laughs at that.
email from President Trump:
THE DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO DESTROY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND ALL THAT IT STANDS FOR. STICK TOGETHER, PLAY THEIR GAME, AND FIGHT HARD REPUBLICANS. OUR COUNTRY IS AT STAKE!
The law is to protect the whistleblower from being adversely
treated at work and nothing to do with what they are blowing the whistle on.
I.e. you can’t fire someone because they blew the whistle. The accusation is adjudicated depending on jurisdiction of the case, if the appropriate legal body decides to pursue the case.
There’s no way Dims can muster a majority over hearsay from an unnamed individual.
And I think Pelosi would pull the articles from the floor if it came to that.
You're willing to trust RATs to do what's RIGHT?!?!?
Or even worse, REPUBLICANS?!?!?

The Democrats will call Whitehouse officials to Congress for questioning. They will use his C.I.A. undercover status to keep his identy hidden.
Million Man March in DC might wake the people and the swamp.
For thousands of years, going back to the Roman empire, the law always states that the accused can face the accuser in a court of law.
Fox News reported that NYT reported that it was a CIA officer with experience working with Ukraine.
Due process protects the “individual” from the state, President or not. Even Pelosi, Nadler, and Schumer are afforded this right but they do not deserve it.
Jim, do we have station chiefs yet? We may want to kick around the idea of a meet up on the mall at this point. You know erect fake gallows and the whole bit. Plus we will clean up after ourselves.
