Not mutually exclusive.

They are certainly wicked, mean, evil, and perverts.

But they are also clinically delusional because among other things, they accuse Patriots of exactly their wicked, mean, evil, and perverted acts. Don't forget, the deceivers are also themselves deceived by their own lies. They actually begin to believe their own bull sh#t. This is a judgement from God.

But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

Hmmm...... With Ted Lieu off the panel because of medical condition, that leaves 23 instead of 24 Commies.

What is the 17th letter of Engrish alphabet? Q.

According to Q, what is the number for “pain”? 23

And on Friday the 13th to boot. Kind of funny how it works out. ?Que No?

Just sayin’.”

Not just pain, Punisher pain...

"The Constitution leaves it up to Congress what that crime is, but one must have committed a crime to be impeached."

The "crime" is in the eyes of Congress. It does not have to be something in violation of a statute.

Another poster posted the same thing to me. And after giving it more thought, I agree with you also. And I definitely believe and agree with your last two sentences along with your explanation. Thank you.

The "crime" is in the eyes of Congress. It does not have to be something in violation of a statute.

It has to be a legitimate crime already passed by Congress. Plain language of the Constitution. A "Crime" ("High Crimes" or "Misdemeanors" (low crimes). Not an unpleasantness or grudge.

Don't enable the Delusional Lying Dems in their utter hatred of the Constitution which LIMITS their power.

Ted Lieu (D) is listed as NA. I think he was absent because of a medical emergency. There are 24 Democrats on the committee.

I hope Paul Ryan and the rest of the never Trump assholes are happy!

They are happy. Very happy.

This is a long way from over. Keep your powder dry. If we want to salvage and keep what little is left of the republic, we had better be willing to do more than vote when it becomes necessary.

Yes.

This is certainly worth a challenge in the courts.

There is no reason for anyone to accept these Articles of Impeachment to be Constitutional.

"Abuse of power" is very broad and is not applicable

"Obstruction of Congress" is simply separation of powers

Sorry to butt in late, and no I have not really read your arguments, but honestly it is closer to what you stated: “leaves it up to Congress”. However “crime” is relative, and again, you only see it as part of the phrase “high crimes”.

I prefer to go to the Founders for what they meant; evidently Congress (Reps) thought being biased was enough of a “crime”.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Chase

Chase WAS impeached (i.e., he was charged), he just wasn’t convicted (presumably, they failed to prove he was “biased”, not so much that it was a “crime”).

Honestly, Congress can impeach for whatever it damn well pleases.
