Judiciary Committee ranking member Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., revealed plans for House Democrats to investigate and impeach Justice Brett Kavanaugh for alleged perjury and investigate and impeach President Donald Trump for alleged treasonous collusion with Russia.
In post-election chats with various callers while riding the Acela train from New York to Washington, Nadler gave advice to a newly elected representative and discussed potential 2020 Democratic presidential nominees with another. He also lamented identity politics and the thriving economy and worried about Democrats losing working-class voters while gaining elite former Republicans and suburban women.
Nadler ...discussed two routes for investigating new Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh. The first is to go after the FBI for how they handled the investigation into unsubstantiated claims he sexually assaulted women. “They didn’t even do a half-ass job,” he said. “They didn’t interview 30 witnesses who said ‘Interview me! I’ve got a lot to say!'” he said, while mimicking people waving their hands to be called on.
His other plan is to go after Kavanaugh because “there’s a real indication that Kavanaugh committed perjury.” …

Nadler said Russia investigations would be under a broad umbrella of holding Trump “accountable,” since it’s a more palatable argument than impeachment, that they would be going “all-in,” and much of what they get to would be “depending on what [special counsel Robert] Mueller finds.” Still, he said the Judiciary Committee would only be in a supportive role to Rep. Adam Schiff and the Intelligence Committee, which has “a way ahead start on that.” Still, he said Judiciary “will have a role” in the Russia investigations.

A real rock thrower, this Nadler guy. I’ll be watching for him on Judgement Day, from afar . . .
I believe that is coming. I would have LOVED to be a bionic drone fly on the Wall of the Oval today when our President had his “talk” with Rod Ratenstein. I imagine Donald Trump’s street fighter qualities shined against the machinations of the Little Lizard.
Thanks, you dumbass voters
These fascist bastards don’t give a damn about you or your family, nor about national security and integrity
Millions of jobs and a great economy, and you idiots vote the Worst of the Worst in
I AM SO SICK AND TIRED OF READING HOW WOMEN ARE DUPED LIBERALS. MANY, IF NOT MOST OF US, ARE NOT. FURTHERMORE, THERE ARE PLENTY OF MALE DUPED LIBERALS.
Simple majority is needed for impeachment. 2/3 senate required for removal.
Neither Trump nor Kavanaugh fears them.
Let them go ahead and do it. They would welcome the fight.
Democrats always step in it and overreach.
That’s in their nature.
"Half-ass," for Nadler is still worth about four full asses for most people.
Since the DAG is the designated DOJ rep to the White House for all kinds of regular meetings and reports, I hope this isn’t another misunderstanding of something routine.
In politics, money talks and bull$#!t talks even louder.
Thanks, low-info voters. You can go back to being cell-phone zombies now.
GOP needs to wag the dog and declass the FISA docs.
Thats what the master of spin Bubba whould do.
Democrats can investigate til the cows come home. They’ll come up empty.
They’ll find nothing fake news hasn’t yet uncovered.
>>> to take down the swamp
Well, you need a clean and honest bureau (plural), from top to bottom. And we all know the Democrats can (and will) do things pretty much without consequences.
This is our punishment - having Nadler, who looks a like Michael Moore clone, all over the news. I’m gonna need some Dramamine or a stiff drink to deal with that crap.
We’ll see, if it is, I still would have loved to be in on that meeting!
We’ll have two years of gridlock. I can live with it as long as the Democrat agenda remains stillborn.
I am a big believer in the face reflects the soul.
Obviously there are some exceptions but in most cases the face tells me a lot.
Look at Paul Ryan’s face, Mueller’s, Pelosi’s, Schumer’s, Menendez’s......
Nadler does not have the face of an innocent choir boy. I suspect a look into his personal affairs would be interesting.
I say do it. Let them screw around with dead-end stunts like this. Let’s look at it this way: we gain yardage three ways. First, it will show everyone that these ‘Rats have nothing but hatred and theatrics, trying to get revenge for the 2016 debacle. Next, it will give Trump’s revitalized DoJ (assuming we get a strong, capable leader in there) a charter to go after the skeletons in the ‘Rat closets, which must be near uncountable. Finally, having them focus on dead-end stunts like these will keep them from doing any real damage, like ruining the economy or decimating the military, as the ‘Rats are wont to do.
As expected, with the Rats taking the House we are going to see the biggest sh*tshow this country has ever seen.
Nadler’s posturing and trying to lay ground work for 2020. Except there is more groundwork to prosecute Ford for perjury and Feinstein for abetting it, than to impeach Kavanaugh. He knows this is going to go nowhere, and if he pushes it Republicans can push back on perjury charges.
