Showdown? In letter, Pelosi/Schumer/Schiff/Warner order intel agencies to ignore presidential order on declassification until consulting with Congres
They still have no Constitutional power to override the president when he exercises his Constitutional powers. If they did, the president would be neutered. That was not the intention of the Framers. Besides, no Republican signed the attempt to thwart the president.
Let’s start with Pelosi. 20 foot wall at the southern land boundary of Frisco, and naval gunboats around the peninsula to keep everyone in. Also cut all communications with the outside world
Seems to me Pelosi and Shumer are writing checks they cant cash.
Just shows how STUPID Democrats are.
“Anyone drags their feet or refuses send over a marine unit to get it.”
Yes, I’m starting to think PawPaw Trump is going to be forced to get mean with these fools. They’ve brought it on themselves.
Smoke em out and burn em down, PawPaw!
I hope you are right. If not, CNN, the US spy agencies, and Google are our rulers.
But this is about whether they can get bureaucrats to continue to stonewall and redact document requests as has been the case with Congress’s document requests for months. Everyone does not agree that the president has such power and it could end up in court if bureaucrats defy the president.
“...Seems to me Pelosi and Shumer are writing checks they cant cash....”
PeeLousi should be tried and sentenced for the main role she played in foistering that unvetted, unqualified, ineligible, faggy twit upon the American People. She owns slaves in Samoa....maybe she should banished to there an live amongst them....forever.
If not there, GITMO...forever.
Looks like everything is going as planned. The Dems will slow this down a few weeks just in time for an October surprise. I guess they don’t want to take their medicine yet.
.
The president has the power.
If he didn’t, who would? (IOW what are you smoking?)
"Decision"? Has it now become a "decision" to obey a lawful order of a duly elected President?
Perhaps it has for those that have seditiously been telling executive branch employees around them to "Resist everything! Every level. F**k sh*t up!"
For those who understand normal thinking, obeying one's employer is not a minute-by-minute opportunity to "Resist everything [or] F**k sh*t up!"
Pray tell, precisely to which received assurances could you be referring that would implicitly attempt to strip President Trump's of his Constitutional authority to declassify any government document of his choosing?
Congress only has jurisdiction over the CIA. As the intel community has made perfectly clear over the past year of denying and slow-walking documents. Justice falls under Administration - an equal part of government to Congress, and subject to the direct orders not of Congress, but of the President.
Pelosi/Schumer/Schiff/Warner could be looked at as unindicted co-conspirators if they are attempting to interfere with Administration jurisdiction. (tongue in cheek on that last bit)
agreed.
There might be a positive unintended consequence of Trump Derangement Syndrome. These people might be so stressed and traumatized they’ll be unable to procreate. Just another way for Trump to drain the swamp.
works for me! And if they lock the door, call in the guys that like to make noise and break things to remove the door.
Don’t be surprised if there is another school shooting the day the docs are declassified.
We have control of the congress HOWEVER with LYIN RYAN at the helm lord only knows what he will do to stop Intelligence agency from releasing docs!!!! This NEEDS to drop before the midterms!!!!
Read the Constitution for yourself and don’t rely on “everyone” to do your thinking for you. “Everyone” does NOT agree!
The Di-Fi/Schumer/Ford/Harris/Booker fiasco has strengthened Trump immeasurably.....not that he needed strengthening.
He shrugs these people off like they were gnats.
