Jerry Nadler: House Rules Don't Apply Until After Impeachment

[White MAGA Man]

Reading from a prepared text, Nadler argued: “The House rule does not require me to schedule a hearing on a particular day, nor does it require me to schedule the hearing as a condition precedent to taking any specific legislative action.”

In other words, he interpreted the rule as allowing him to schedule the minority witness hearing after the articles of impeachment had already passed.

[White MAGA Man]

This 'Humpty Dumpty' jerk needs to go. I've never seen such pure partisan treachery.

[Sacajaweau]

That makes absolutely no sense.

[DesertRhino]

These people literally seemed to have no fear of the American people. The Republicans get to call witnesses and interrogate them after the impeachment is voted on. Yeah, there’s only one way to fix this problem.

This is looking more and more as “Let’s just get it to the senate and let mcconnel screw it up from there”. I said very early on that if this gets to the senate, anything can happen.

[Blood of Tyrants]

This is how they will rule over us if they ever get power in both houses and the presidency.

[Sarah Barracuda]

I agree which is why they just have to do a quick acquittal and be done with it

[ladyjane]

Maybe Greta was right. Those politicians should be put against the wall.

[17th Miss Regt]

If there is a quick acquittal the Democrats will just turn around and do it again. They still have the House.

[Don W]

I’m pretty sure George W and the boys would have already had a tar, feather and rail party by now

[TADSLOS]

Rules Schmules.

The ends justify the means.

It’s in the little red playbook.

[wastedyears]

Does anybody still think they care about the rule of law, proper justice, America, or innocent until proven guilty?

[redshawk]

Send him Harry Reid’s exercise equipment.

[JPJones]

Is it time to start throwing rocks?

You are probably right. But I don't think Trump will get another opportunity as good as this to expose the deep state. It's a tough call and potentially could cost Trump his presidency.

Most conservatives have better things to do than possibly lower their quality of life or life itself just to fight for the heart of this country.

[LeonardFMason]

As bad as 40% of Americans are there are 60% that would not stand for another impeachment farce.
