RUSH: Are you kidding me? Jerry Nadler can’t read 658 pages. It would take him 10 meals. Six-hundred-and-fifty-eight pages! Is that what this thing was? Six-hundred-and-fifty-eight pages over this garbage?
There isn’t 658 pages’ worth of data because there were no impeachable offenses. The Supreme Court has agreed to hear Trump’s case denying Congress his financial records. You know what that does? That obliterates the second article of impeachment, which is abuse of Congress. If a court — in the case, the Supreme Court — has agreed to hear Trump’s claim that he should not have to produce financial documents of his business or whatever else to any of these House committees, then he’s not abusing Congress.
He’s going through the process. He’s asking a court to intercede. That whole second article has just been blown to smithereens with the Supreme Court accepting this, and it ought to be removed from the articles of impeachment. Instead, what do we get? The witnesses that Chuck Schumer wants! So what do you think ought to happen here? We got two options. Do we do a, “Wham. Bam. Thank you, ma’am,” trial — get in, get it, and get out — or do we do an elongated trial with bringing a bunch of Trump witnesses up there to testify and literally nuke the Democrat case?
What do you think ought to happen here? Well, it all comes down to how many Republicans in the Senate do you think secretly hate Trump and want to vote against him. Well, you have to ponder that. And now here’s Chuck Schumer — who said there should it be any witnesses during the Clinton impeachment — now demanding his list of four witnesses, Mulvaney, John Bolton, and two other guys. I can’t remember the other two names.
But now there will be negotiations over whether these witnesses should be called. Mitch McConnell last week said he wanted to have a “Wham. Bam. Thank you, ma’am.” Trump said, “No, I want an elongated one.” Six-hundred-and-fifty-eight pages! Do you remember…? Those of you who went to school, you would be assigned a term paper or some kind of paper, and it had to be, oh, I don’t know, 10 pages. And you couldn’t write 10 pages to save your life. So what did you do?
You put in a lot of reallies and commas and “I mean its.” You stretched it out. “Somebody made a really, really, really, really, really bad mistake.” You double spaced it. You put four spaces between the paragraphs. You had very, very wide margins — or narrow in this case. That’s what’s happened here. Throw some pictures in there in your term paper. Anything to get to 10 pages. What the Democrats have done here is put together something that can be reported as, “Six-hundred-and-fifty-eight pages? Wow! Trump must have done something.”
The problem is — and I say “problem” — the Fox News poll is out, and it shows Trump’s approval is up three points while the percentage of Americans who want him impeached and thrown out of office has not changed, and that’s around 50 or 51%. Axios is trying to warn the Democrats, “You’re losing ground on this.” We’ve had a Democrat, Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey, change parties after having a meeting with Trump on Friday.
We got John Kasich out saying, “Well, he’s just acting in his own self-interest.” (laughing) Really? Really, Kasich? “He’s acting in his own self-interest! He’s thinking about himself. He’s not thinking about party.” Carly Fiorina, who has a new book out, is all over CNN, “Trump must be impeached. For me, it’s all about character.” Don’t you love it when our people start talking about character as though the Democrats have any, the biggest bunch of sleazeballs?
Adam Schiff is one of these people who has yet to tell the truth about anything. Devin Nunes is right: Adam Schiff needs to be in therapy. Adam Schiff needs to be in rehab. Adam Schiff needs to get some serious, serious help. He is incapable of the truth. He’s living the lie. He’s not living the dream. Everything Nunes wrote about the FISA warrant applications in the famous memo has been validated as true.
So now they’re running stories, “Where does the Devin Nunes — on a congressman’s salary — get all the money to launch these lawsuits?” When is the last time the Drive-By Media ever asked, “Where did this Democrat pauper who shows up making a congressional salary end up leaving office in 10 years a multimillionaire?” Where has that story been? So I’m thinking, I could just pick a page in this 17-page summary. Pick a page, read a paragraph, and then go back to the other stuff.
Pick a page, read a paragraph, ’cause it is outrageous — and it’s not just the deep state. It is the media. But, folks, they lied about everything. There was nothing in this pursuit of Trump, not a single thing. Everybody involved in this should be shamed, should be afraid to show their face in public, should be discredited. In an old, long-ago-forgotten America, they would be. But today, they just live to fight the lie another day. There’s nothing to this Ukraine phone call.
There is nothing whatsoever to this, just like there was nothing to the Steele dossier. There was nothing to the Trump-Russia collusion story. There was no such thing as Trump or Carter Page being a Russian agent. There was nothing to it that Trump was a traitor, and there’s nothing in this impeachment saga. There’s literally nothing that Donald Trump has done that is an impeachable offense. There’s nothing that is even criminal.
And one of the two articles has just been blown to smithereens with the Supreme Court taking Trump’s case in which he doesn’t want to have to turn over what you wouldn’t want to turn over: Every financial document about your life. These lying, scheming Democrats are demanding it pull, and Trump doesn’t want to turn it over. He’s not obstructing Congress. He’s going through the established channels to try to win a legal fight. That second article of impeachment now may as well be shredded.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Okay. Hot off the presses, the latest poll on impeachment comes from USA Today, and USA Today says, “Those surveyed oppose — by 51% to 45% — a Senate vote to convict Trump on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.” There can’t be an obstruction of Congress article now. But, anyway, 51-45 oppose a vote to convict. It’s still outrageous that it’s even 45. It’s purely partisan.
The Round Mound of the Gavel
How many Pages was War and Peace?
If this sham goes through, there will be War and no Peace.
How many weeks or months ago was this pile of crap written ?
Try January 20, 2017.
How much is this circus jerk costing us?
when the dems vote to impeach... the senate will not remove and trump will be reelected in a landslide along with keeping the senate and re taking the house...
then the house can negate the terms of impeachment with a congressional pardon. wiping the slate clean and granting trump a third term to make it up to the country for the dems trying to remove and obstruct him.
The most ridiculous idea ever presented on FR. And that's saying a lot.
Do you know where I can get the document? I am keeping an archive of historical documents. Thanks!
Remember this is the clown who held 2 hearings and had no fact witnesses at either.
Try to do a search in Duckduckgo.com.
Why didn't Nadler or Schiff call those witnesses, since they control the process? Why does Schumer have to demand that the Senate call those witnesses?

charge number 1 (abuse of power) claims PDJT acted improperly by ‘withholding aid to Ukraine until it agreed to investigate” the criminal conduct of the Bidens, etal.
answer:
1. had he withheld the aid, t would not only have NOT been an abuse of power, it would have been a president ‘faithfully executing the laws of the United State” pursuant to our treaty with Ukraine providing specifically for investigative aid like this. Had PDJT failed to take action IF Ukraine didn’t help with the criminal investigation, PDJT could have been charged with deriliction of duty
AND
anyway, Ukraine denies PDJT ever did this, anyway.
AND
the aid was NOT withheld, Ukraine has the weapons flowing
charge 2: obstruction of Congress, socalled, for not complying with their demands for documents, etc.
analysis: first off, this charge is not a crime even had it been true.
second, the POTUS has a duty to uphold the constitution of the USA. The constitution provides for separation of powers. Put simply, NOT everything Congress may demand of the Executive branch is Congress’ right to get. (The questioned demand items were properly refused, and it remains to be seen if even the courts would rule against the POTUS on them, given the separation of powers rule.)
Conclusion: charge 2 would not be an impeachable crime, even if Congress’ demands had been reasonable and properly related to its legislative functions. Which they patently were not
Therefore, I believe the Senate should dismiss the charges forthwith. The D’s have dragged America through three years and all they came up with was this pile of sheit.
What a waste, and what an insult to the voters.
Let’s not have to sit through another X months of a ‘trial’ on these obviously ridiculous (and constitutionally insufficient) charges.
Jerry the Nadler’s “COUP de FAT”.
Schumer should be told to sit down, and shut up. Then, hold the hearings in the basement of the Senate, at 0200 hrs. No witnesses for the minority, as in the House.
The House could pass a Law saying that Trump gets a Third “Bonus Term” as a punishment for Democrat Impeachment. The Senate agrees and Trump signs. The Rats fight it in court for 6 years. I can see a very good way for this to happen.
Stranger things have happened.... like these impeachment hearings...
Still doesn’t sounds like an uprising to me.
