Aye!
What’s to prevent her and our domestic enemies from keeping voting on and resubmitting these horseclinton “articles of ‘impeachment’”?
Rats have no shame, no hope to win in November, and so far have been positively reinforced in their war on America for electing President Trump.
The “Nazzi, Your Time Is UP” resolution
Pack up your Shiff and go home
I don’t see how the Senate can have a trial on an impeachment that hasn’t happened.
Or dismiss one- anymore than it could consider impeachment without the House having voted, and delivered, it.
I get the PR aspect but it’s all dangerously silly.
Amen !!!
It’s about time.
Very reasonable. Similar to if the president fails to sign a a bill but also fails to return it to the Congress, the bill becomes law, unless the Congress adjourns in the meantime, when it’s void
This would work for everybody except true patriots that desire jail for sedition...or maybe death for treason.
I would buy lottery tickets to win the privilege to drop the floors of the gallows.
Oh yeah, I am virtue signaling!
Merica!
Too many Americans are too busy watching the circus’s and staring at their phones to care that much though.
Add in:
Hold the Speaker in Contempt of Congress and you have a deal.
Its going to pass. I think 25 days is plenty. If the House still hasn’t appointed its managers and transmitted the articles of impeachment by then, the next step is to dismiss them with prejudice and do a directed vote of acquittal of the President.
This wouldn’t be necessary if the House wasn’t holding impeachment hostage.
Perhaps Marxine can send some peach mints to the senate. “a more perfect union” or a 3rd world republic with 1st rate weapons?
25 DAYS! at this point pelosi should have 25 minutes or it’s null.
Nothing in the constitution says they have to be delivered. When the vote was taken and put in the Congressional record, that is it. It’s done...Finished...DONE.
Mitch should simply start proceedings and take a vote dismissing them.
They are trying to hard. The resolution should be to dismiss the charges with prejudice. McConnel could bring that up for an up or down vote.
It is no less Constitutional than what the House has Done.
Anybody know the History of the Filibuster? It’s not in the Constitution. It’s a “Senate Rule”. But at one time, it was a powerful tool. But it had a process by witch debate (talking) went on forever, which never allowed for a vote. The Senate got lazy and decided that was too much work. Instead, they could just say they needed 60 votes for Cloture (stop debating and vote).
Well, impeachment is now in the same territory. The Dems have shammed a ridiculous case together under the guise of impeachment without any substance or process judicial respected. In the future, the House can just vote to impeach with some “reasons”. And the Senate can agree or disagree with a 2/3 majority vote to convict and remove from office. The same way the Filibuster turned into a mockery partisan tool.
I’m kind of sad they are considering this. A couple of the main reasons Pelosi is sitting on this is because they will uncover themselves and get themselves into investigations on them because all the charges of impeachment only hold weight due to their prior graft. I don’t want them to get off so easy. They accomplished their goal if it is cancelled as they only thing they were trying to do was dirty the water for the 2020 and scare voters like with Thomas, Bumatay, and Roberts. If the real truth comes out, a whole lot of Desi’s will have some “spaining” to do. Do’t let them get out of cutting their own throats.

Let’s roll.
I like it. Put an end to the House’s games.
This is what Pehosi wants. By not sending the Articles of Impeachment and the Senate Repubes voting to dismiss the Articles, it removes her from being the fall guy in this whole process. She knows the way the House ran the Impeachment hearings was a farce and she can’t in due conscious send this over to the Senate. She also knows that if she holds onto them long enough that the Senate will get restless and do what they are doing now. And once the Senate acts on the farcical Articles of Impeachment they will be rendered null and void in her eyes. Then she can wait until Trump’s second term, provided she still holds the House, to impeach Trump once again this time with her people in the lead roles and Schifty and Nads out of the picture.
Since it’s not important to Pelosi, it shouldn’t be important to us.
