Keith Ellison Calls For Impeachment Investigations Of Trump
The Daily Caller ^ | 02/22/17 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 02/23/2017 5:47:42 AM PST by Enlightened1

Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison, a top candidate to take over as chair of the Democratic National Committee, called Wednesday for an impeachment investigation of President Donald Trump.

“I think that Donald Trump has already done a number of things which legitimately raise the question of impeachment,” Ellison said during a debate on CNN on Wednesday with his fellow DNC chair hopefuls.

The left-wing Ellison, who is one of the top contenders for DNC chair, argued that Trump was in violation of the emoluments clause, a constitutional clause which prohibits presidents from receiving payment from foreign governments. Some Trump opponents have claimed that the Republican is in violation of the federal law because Trump hotels have received payment from foreign dignitaries.

Ellison joins a small group of Democratic lawmakers who have said impeaching Trump is on the table. California Rep. Maxine Waters, Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin and Texas Rep. Joaquin Castro have all said the Republican should be impeached. Nancy Pelosi, the House Minority Leader, has pushed back on the idea.

Go for it.

My very conservative estimate is that at least 60% of the American People support Trump. Some more who don’t support him nonetheless think impeachment is an absurd prospect.

If the Democrats want to die on this hill, let them.

> Wonder why he still keeps his slave name? Hopefully after elected head of DNC he’ll re-brand with something like Muhammed al Detroiti.

The very same reason Obama claimed to be a Christian then got busted on national television in the Stephanopolous interview saying, "my Muslim faith". He's a Muslim liar.

Ellison is the proverbial camel’s nose in the tent.

You sure it's not literal?

senator conyers believes if you weigh down one side of an island it could tip over. words cannot describe!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not that it makes that much of a difference, but it was Hank Johnson who had that brain fart.

Democrats will say anything, no matter how stupid it may be, to keep our military from doing its job.

And to think, people like Johnson, Pelosi, Ellison, and Waters got into Congress. The main job qualification for Democrat Congress members must be an IQ that doesn’t rise above garage temperature.

Ok, I’m confused. Is Ellison asking for impeachment as a Muslim, a Communist, a Democrat or a radical activist?

you left out Village Idiot

Dang it! Yeah, that. Which one or combination thereof? Tell us, Keith Ellison! Wait, we don't care. Go back and sit on your Village Idiot wall to entertain the Village.

It is interesting that as a member of the House of Representatives, he has the ability to introduce a bill of impeachment. Instead, he pontificates about the subject as he knows such action is ridiculous.

Conyers probably does believe that we might tip Guam over but Hank Johnson, of Georgia, actually said it.

“””””””””””Ellison is the proverbial camel’s nose in the tent.

His congressional district one of the wealthiest white liberal enclaves in the entire state. And they are all so smug and proud of themselves for their progressive attitudes. “Look at us. We voted for a black man. And he’s a Muslim, too! We are awesome! Woo!” (Just don’t let any of those people in our neighborhood.)””””””””””

His district is more like a third world country. You should need a passport to enter his district.

Another load of equine feces from Imam Ellison. They still don’t get it - and I’m OK with that.

Keith could spend his time more productively investigating why jOkeass was not impeached.
