They may get the simple majority in the House to impeach, but they will never get the two thirds of the Senate to convict and remove.

Yep. The Great Compromise will strike yet again, the Founders are rolling over in their graves.

“They may get the simple majority in the House to impeach, but they will never get the two thirds of the Senate to convict and remove.”

A judge has no real power, as defined by budget or forces under his command. He has only a title, a position, and respect. If they had real power they could wear anything they pleased. Instead, they opt for black robes to make themselves appear institutional instead of just “some guy with a gavel.” Once he has been impeached every ruling he makes comes under much more scrutiny. People will make fun of him. His other judges will pressure him to go as his continued presence will damage their power on the bench. My guess is he’ll retire as his usefulness as a political operative will be compromised.

No more symbolic huffing and puffing

He clearly broke the law. Impeachment? Why not just arrest the bastard? If I were to spy on politicians I would be in the Greybar Hotel toot sweet.

Yep, leave it to the (R)N(C) to NOT do a G.D. thing ‘cuz it might (unlikely in this case) get results

Unlike the 6-7x they passed the ACA repeal while in the minority or any other # of “political theatre” votes/bills

Lay out the proof & make the charges. (D) don’t convict, you got an election cycle soundbite+ (”(D) support activist judges over the Constitution”)

But...of course NOT
