Pergram is an arrogant ignoramus. Yes, if a Senator asks for "unanimous consent", any one Senator can say no, but that's not 100 to 1 veto power. If there is one objection, a vote of 51 Senators can overrule it. All McConnell needs is 51 Senators to approve, and he can have any rules and rule changes he wishes.
Legal expert Dershowitz says the Senate can hold a trial
without Pelosi info. Constitution says once a POTUS is impeached the Senate can start calling witnesses, get document.
Start the openning arguments and then let Trump finally have his right to defend himself honored.
Just dismiss the charges for failure to state grounds and to prosecute.
Josh Hawley has already introduced a resolution to that effect.
House Democrats lose their presumed leverage if impeachment is summarily dismissed by the Senate.
Maybe Nancy should concentrate on holding her teeth & her bladder & let sober adults lead the U.S.
The Senate is not “stuck”. Pelosi is the one who is “stuck”. She ginned up this impeachment fiasco; it’s her albatross.
No one cares about Sideshow Nancy.
Tiny little person made herself even smaller.
For Christmas Nancy want real proof that President Trump did something wrong, she did not get it. Now she is lost with what to do. Nancy, maybe wait for the Easter Bunny?
Just wondering: What would happen if Nanzcy Pelosi dropped dead this weekend?
Just some food for thought.
Congress returns to town on the 7th. Aunt Nancy will walk the papers down the hall to Mitch’s office, with 100 photogs clambering round her.
She will mumble and stumble a few words about fairness.
One minor change in the Senate rules will call Nancy’s bluff. Simply add the following:
The articles of Impeachment shall be submitted to the Senate no later than 45 days after passage by the House. Any articles submitted after the 45 days shall be rejected and shall not be considered by the same session of the Senate.
According to the Constitution the articles of impeachment are supposed to be sent over to the Senate in a timely manner. This has gone past 2 weeks and IMHO Nancy is violating the Constitution.
