Top Judiciary Republican Calls on Nadler to Postpone Monday's Impeachment Hearing. Here's Why.
Townhall.com ^ | December 8, 2019 | Beth Baumann

House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Doug Collins (R-GA) on Sunday blasted Chairman Jerry Nadler, saying Monday's scheduled impeachment hearing needs to be postponed. According to Collins, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) handed over thousands of pages of documents less than 48 hours before Monday's scheduled impeachment hearing.

"This is how desperate, how desperately focused they are on impeaching this president," Collins told Fox News' Maria Bartiromo. "Last week we had our first hearings with the law professors and Jonathan Turley put it to bed about how they're actually abusing power. The next morning Speaker Pelosi comes on and says basically 'I've had enough of this. Go ahead and write the articles of impeachment."

Video segment, 5 1/2 min.

The document release came 25 days after every Republican member of the House Judiciary Committee sent a letter to Nadler, requesting all documents relating to impeachment.

"It is impossible for Judiciary members to sift through thousands and thousands of pages in any meaningful way in a matter of hours,” Collins said in a statement. “Moreover, Democrats still refuse to release all documentation in their possession, though Republicans have demanded this according to rules of the House — which Democrats themselves adopted in January. The information Democrats released today is partial, biased and curated to support accusations that have, to date, been thinner than cotton candy."

Monday's hearing will include presentations from both the House Intelligence and Judiciary Committees' counsel.

Scumbags, despite the mounting outrages Linda said today the senate is going to give them a platform to bring their circus to the Senate for televised hearing there. The White House will not be allowed to call in their own witnesses.

Would the Democrat leaders destroy our country to keep themselves from being punished for the crimes they have committed?

I guess so.

And that needs to be remembered.

Not only have they broken our laws, but they would destroy our very country to cover up their crimes.

The Democrat leaders should go to President Trump and confess.

If they are going to continue to behave badly, then no mercy.

They want to impeach but avoid a Senate trial by having the Senate dismiss due improper impeachment. Then they can continue to scream without having to ever prove a thing.

They have no respect for the intelligence of voters, even their own.

Then the senate democrats and republicans will demand a secret vote to convict. Watch.

Yes. Happily. They’re well on their way.

The DIMs are anti-Rule-of-Law and anti-Constitution criminals. They shame our Republic and the good people who live here. Nothing would surprise me from these seditionists and traitors...nothing. May they all soon experience Justice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They answered that on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009.

Our big problem is the GOP won’t do anything about any of the crimes of the Kenyanesian Usurpation because they are complicit.

The next morning Speaker Pelosi comes on and says basically 'I've had enough of this. Go ahead and write the articles of impeachment."

They make a big show of passing a special rules package, and then ignore the Republicans' requests based on that rules package. They are proceeding as if this never happened.

The Democrats are not honest participants in ANY process they are a part of. Never have been, never will be.
