As final impeachment vote nears, swing-district Dems fall in line (so vote them out!)
Fox News ^ | December 16 2019 | Gregg Re

Posted on 12/16/2019 11:14:06 PM PST by knighthawk

With just hours to go until the House Rules Committee meets at 11 a.m. ET Tuesday for a marathon session to set the ground rules on this week's final impeachment vote, many of the moderate Democrats in districts President Trump won in 2016 have started to fall in line in favor of impeachment.

Other than New Jersey Rep. Jeff Van Drew, who has mulled switching to the Republican Party, and Minnesota Rep. Collin Peterson, no other Democrat occupying one of the 31 House districts that Trump won in 2016 has announced opposition to impeachment. All Republicans in Congress and the Senate have opposed impeachment.

At the same time, New York Rep. Max Rose, whose district backed Trump by 10 points in 2016 and who has long campaigned on bipartisanship, announced Friday he would support impeaching the president.

Hunter Biden move over. Now Nancy Pelosi’s son may be looking to take center stage with the Ukraine controversy. Paul Pelosi, Jr. spent time in Ukraine in 2017. “BOOM: Nancy Pelosi’s son Paul Pelosi Jr. (who went to Ukraine in 2017) was a board member of Viscoil and executive at its related company NRGLab, which DID ENERGY Business in UKRAINE! And Nancy Pelosi appeared in a promotional video for the company!”

Federalist—According to Burisma’s website, Joseph Cofer Black (Romney adviser) was appointed in February of 2017 and continues to serve on its board. The timelines would indicate that Black and Biden worked together at Burisma, and indeed, web archives from late 2017 show Black and Biden listed simultaneously on the board.

Burisma Paid Joe Biden $900,000 for Lobbying – Ukrainian MP
Ukraine News Agency ^ | October 9th 2019

KYIV. Oct 9 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden received $900,000 for lobbying activities from Burisma Group, Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada member Andriy Derkach said citing investigation materials. Derkach publicized documents which, as he said, “describe the mechanism of getting money by Biden Sr.” at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine’s press center in Kyiv on Wednesday. “This was the transfer of Burisma Group’s funds for lobbying activities, as investigators believe, personally to Joe Biden through a lobbying company. Funds in the amount of $900,000 were transferred to the U.S.-based company Rosemont Seneca Partners, which according to open sources, in particular, the New York Times, is affiliated with Biden. The payment reference was payment for consultative services,” Derkach said. This stuff goes back to 2008;

If we can vote the vote counters out first, there is a chance.

The lemmings are marching into the wood chipper.

I reviewed the district votes of one of the freshman Michigan Demohypocrites that has declared for impeachment.

Her district typically votes 200,000 Pubbie in a presidential election year, and the Pubbies stay home in an off-year.

Her high-water mark in off-year 2018, year of the Rabid Resistance, was 175,000.

Looks like a 2020 blow-out to me.

Impeachment in this case is being used as a tactic to attempt to win an election. Any politician who would cooperate with such a misuse of this constitutional provision has no business in the US congress. They are unfit to serve.

We are witnessing the historic suicide of the D political party. (Which since it went insane isn’t a bad thing)

Aren’t there some FISA judges out there who are really annoyed? They were taken for saps.
Unless, of course, they are participating saps.

Our rep (Brindisi) in upstate NY has come out and said he will vote for impeachment. The district went +12 for Trump.

Pelosi ordered the Whip to "crack the whip" despite the news story saying otherwise and people believing this would not happen.

Well, another example of falling into the media trap and swallowing the propaganda/psych-ops (People still believe the "no whip" garbage/voting my conscience meme too). I bet half these dems get elected based off of pure ignorance/buying in what dems/media are selling.

"We are witnessing the historic suicide of the D political party."

Conservatives have been saying this since 1968 when the radical element took over the democrat party yet here they remain, as well as around 230-240 electoral votes by default. There is a minor window that Repubs have, the rest are democrat strongholds because of the "free" gibs.

True . . . IF we get candidates to run.

So far, Burgess Owens (UT4) has seen his major competitor just drop out, so he looks very good to evict Impeachment Ben McAdams from his seat.

Tom Kean is running for one of the NJ seats (I think Andy Kim) and is a good candidate to take back that seat.

Kendra Horn is pretty much finished in OK5 and we have good candidates there.

I am told there are two good TX candidates for the Sessions seat and the other one lost there.

We should get back the AL seat.

Elissa Slotkin has three Rs running against her: a guy named Young who is a carpetbagger who recently admitted on TV he’d only lived in the district 4 months (against the law-—6 is the min to run), and two others. GOP trying to back the woman, but I think the guy’s name is Pittinger, whom Baris tells me is actually the strongest candidate. This is a must win seat.

People in CA insist that we can get back as many as five seats there if the GOP will just get on the ball with vote harvesting.

Torres-Small (NM2) should be vulnerable, but Baris tells me that the fundamentals of NM are very hard. If she is beaten, we pretty much would have a blowout.

Loebsack (IA2) stepping down, so this is a +2 Trump seat and should be a good pickup possibility.

Conor Lamb has a real competitor. He is -20 right now, and this is a seat the Ds thought they had safely gerrymandered, but is quite vulnerable.

These are the seats I’m following right now.

100% CORRECT.

I approve of impeachment by the CLUELESS DIMocRATS, has they evidently “just don’t get it” & are committing political suicide.

Their equally CLUELESS allies in the MAIN-SLIME media cannot save them from DOOM.

Yours, TMN78247
