Harris Asked Nadler to Open Kavanaugh Impeachment Inquiry
freebeacon ^ | Nic Rowan - SEPTEMBER 27, 2019 | Nic Rowan - SEPTEMBER 27, 2019

Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) asked Rep. Jerry Nadler (D., N.Y.) in a Sept. 17 letter to open a formal impeachment inquiry into Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh following the New York Times's publication of new accusations that omitted exculpatory evidence.

Harris argued the sexual misconduct allegations made against Kavanaugh in a Sept. 14 New York Times book excerpt raised the possibility that he may have lied to the Senate during his confirmation hearing. She added that the FBI investigation into the original claims made against Kavanaugh by Christine Blasey Ford was insufficient. Harris reiterated her beliefs in an op-ed published in Elle magazine on Friday.

"If we want to live in a country where women are believed and given access to the justice they deserve, we must roll up our sleeves and get to work holding our leaders accountable," Harris wrote in Elle. "Especially those who serve on the highest court in our land."

The Times story, adapted from a new book about Kavanaugh by two of the newspaper's reporters, alleged that a friend of Kavanaugh "pushed" Kavanaugh's "penis into the hand of a female student" at a college party. The op-ed neglected to mention, however, that the woman in question was not interviewed for the story and that her friends say she does not recall the incident. The Times issued an update after author Mollie Hemingway pointed out the omission.

The authors of the Times piece, Kate Kelly and Robin Pogrebin, also backpedaled their allegations in the week following the story's publication. Kelly told Yahoo News on Sept. 20 that she was disappointed the story generated a "rush to impeachment" from 2020 candidates such as Harris, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.), and South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg.

No wonder she was such a bad prosecutor. She doesn’t follow the law.

Because the actions of the accused are irrelevant. The only requirement for impeachment is that the socialist powermongers make an accusation. No evidence is required. It’s in the Constitution. Don’t believe me, just ask Jerry Nadler.

Remember when the left would gin up hysterical outrage over little, insignificant gestures or events? Now they do it over totally fabricated facts that haven’t the slightest footing in reality. It’s like Big Brother’s invention of the boogeyman Emmanuel in the novel 1984. It disproves the saying “you couldn’t make this stuff up “, because that’s exactly what they’re doing.

Where are the weak-kneed, weak-sister rupubs? Even if they are the minority in the house shouldn’t they be saying something in opposition to this lunacy? Unless...these quiet quislings agree???

Yes. While Republicans tiptoe around, gingerly trying to find ways not to prosecute democrats for their criminal activity to prove they are such nice people, democrats disregard all laws and maintain that the end justifies the means.

Jesus said that the sons of darkness are wiser, in their generation, than the sons of light.

Never forget that it was Kamala Harris and Corey Booker who were disseminating comments promoting Jussie Smollett’s fake hate crime hoax until the story imploded. The inept Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx is a Kamala acolyte.

Had the Smollett debacle not been exposed, Booker and Harris were going to use it as a springboard to promote more hate crime legislation.

no physical evidence +
no circumstantial evidence +
no confession +
no eye witnesses +
no corroborating witnesses +
hearsay doesn't count +
lying accuser

= NO CASE

Amazing how fast the left can mobilize to go after members of this administration, but Barr can’t find an indictment over months and years, even when served to him on a silver platter.

I don’t believe it is fast, I do believe these actions, impeachment etc., were planned a long time ago. IMO

This congress under Pelosi has not passed one single bill hat has helped Americans. They have otherwise been concentrated on removing Trump because they lost an election
