Queen Pelosi and Shifty king Schiff are attempting via resolution to legitimize a body of Kangaroo Court evidence, which actually is an attempt to draft a Bill of Attainder against President Trump under color of impeachment.
Bills of Attainder are specifically prohibited by Article 1, clause 3 of the Constitution whether defacto or dejure.
Queen Pelosi and Shifty King Schiff are about to experience the political equivalent of the enactment of the French Revolution.
She will just deem it passed without a vote.
I don’t trust this dried up Ole witch.
She’s got something cooking. And you know her goal is not to be kind or helpful to President Trump or the Republicans.
Must watch this one carefully. Plan for the worst.
So if you are a Dem from Dark Red district and cannot vote yes on a real Impeachment and survive, how can you vote yes on a fake Impeachment, a word smith slight of hand, and still survive?
I think this would insult the intelligence of the voters and make them even angrier.
I do not see how this provides political cover for any of her Crew or some dopey RINO.
Voters will not allow themselves to be fast talked this way and it really authorizes nothing than what is already going on
I don’t understand any of this.
You are right on target.
This is exactly what they are trying to do on the assumption that the GOP Senate and most of the House has never heard of it.
Here is the Wikipedia opening article on "Bill of Attainder"
A bill of attainder (also known as an act of attainder or writ of attainder or bill of pains and penalties) is an act of a legislature declaring a person or group of persons guilty of some crime and punishing them, often without a trial. As with attainder resulting from the normal judicial process, the effect of such a bill is to nullify the targeted person's civil rights, most notably the right to own property (and thus pass it on to heirs), the right to a title of nobility, and, in at least the original usage, the right to life itself. Bills of attainder passed in Parliament by Henry VIII on 29 January 1542 resulted in the executions of a number of notable historical figures.The House is not attempting to Punish President Trump through a non-judicial law. They are merely trying to refer him to the Senate for an Impeachment trial, as has been done several times before. Impeachment is not an "attainder" because the only punishment is removal from office.
It is a purely political process, which results in a purely political solution - removal from office.
If the House were trying to put Trump into prison for something that would be a Bill of Attainder, but they are not.
