Such a slender foundation is a red flag for architects who operate on the accepted 1:10 ratio between the width and height of a structure.

They are piling up the BS at a ratio of about 1:1,000,000. :)

The fact is that, if proven, a quid pro quo to force the investigation of a political rival in exchange for military aid can be impeachable, if proven.

Turley recites the above dumb Deep State talking point. He's wrong.

If there is credible evidence that a political rival has committed a crime, then of course a quid pro quo is the correct thing to do.

Turley is usually on the money, but I think he’s wrong in this case. I don’t see how Sixth Amendment protections can be set aside in something as critical and subject to partisan abuse as an impeachment inquiry, even if the Constitution doesn’t literally spell it out; it is a baby-step inference, much more closely tied to the spirit of the Constitution than the “penumbras and emanations” used to justify Roe V. Wade.

Taylor and Kent's testimony today was DAMNING..

DAMNING TO THEMSELVES because they ADMITTED to being guilty of SEDITION/TREASON for DISALLOWING President Trump's RIGHT TO DICTATE U.S. FOREIGN POLICY.

Taylor and Kent, the first two "witnesses". LOCK THEM BOTH UP for their BETRAYAL to President Trump and REFUSING to execute HIS foreign policy!

This was the YUGE take away from today!

Dems know that just the constant talk of impeachment and the ongoing impeachment circus in the House of Representatives will soil the president enough to keep some democrat voters from wandering off the plantation.

And may help swing some undecideds their way.

As usual their filthy tactics rely on the leftist media to carry their FAKE NEWS to the public.

For months that video was out on Biden. Millions of us were like "WTF"??? Trump is not a social media dufas. He saw it too.

So did the media, only they are STILL covering it up. Like the spy who came out of the cold with a whistle up his ass. And Youtube is suddenly making it VERY HARD to find a clip of Biden bragging about his crime now.

What Political Rival? Is Shotgun Joe Biden the Groping Pedo the Democrat Nominee?

If he and his Son robbed a Bank while he was Vice President nobody could go pressure someone else who was withholding evidence to release it?

The world is upside down. If POTUS Trump could pick the Rat Nominee he would pick Biden.

I’m thinking that since Schiff is so smug, that while Ciaramella was a CIA plant in the whitehouse, that he may not be the whistleblower, and that they’re hoping for an “aha!” moment, to break the Republicans and Trump, in a dramatic flourish.

.....if Democrats move forward with impeachment primarily with the Ukraine boondoggle, it would be the narrowest impeachment in history.....

Bill Clinton survived impeachment, even w/ a suck-up media, and femiNazis Weinstein-Defense: "it's only sex"......
Clinton fought back tooth-and-nail, with secret plans to exploit the presidency he demeaned.
Hillary was in the West Wing with her Bimbo Eruption Team shooting down any woman who dared surface with sex evidence.

=========================================

STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE-—Bill Clinton gets impeached

David Schippers was asked by his friend, Congressman Henry Hyde, to be Chief Investigative Counsel for the US House Judiciary Committee. Schippers, a lifelong Democrat, accepted and took the job in April 1998. The Hyde Committee was holding an inquiry on whether Clinton had committed impeachable offences in his handling of the Paula Jones sexual harassment suit..... during which Clinton committed perjury regarding his affair with Monica Lewinsky. The committee in December 1998 voted to impeach Clinton........a decision supported by Schippers.

On December 10, 1998, Schippers said to the committee:
“The President, then,
<><> has lied under oath in a civil deposition,
<><> he lied under oath in a criminal grand jury.
<><> he lied to the people,
<><> he lied to his Cabinet,
<><> he lied to his top aides,
<><> he lied under oath to the Congress of the United States.
"There’s no one left to lie to.”

Upon the passage of H. Res. 611, Clinton was impeached on December 19, 1998, by the House of Representatives on grounds of perjury to a grand jury (by a 228–206 vote) and obstruction of justice (by a 221–212 vote).

The Senate voted not to remove the impeached president.

Does not this rewritten set of house rules to enable the crimes impeachment inquiry serve as a perfect example of abuse of power?
