So this is the next phase of the fake impeachment, they are now really really really serious about potentially authorizing an inquiry.

So this is the next phase of the fake impeachment, they are now really really really serious about potentially authorizing an inquiry.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Without an Impeachment Resolution which invokes due process, what Pelosi and Schiff are doing is simply gathering self serving untrue evidence to support the drafting of a Bill of Attainder against President Trump.

Bills of Attainder are prohibited by Article 1, clause 3 of the Constitution.The British used them to assign guilt and remove property without trial in colonial times. The House of Representatives has no ability to draft a Bill of Attainder and pass it, even under color of impeachment.

If they do pass Letters of impeachment without due process and the involvement of the entirety of the house of Representatives, as required by the Constitution and convention, any Letter of Impeachment can easily be declared null and void by the Senate as a prohibited Bill of Attainder.
