When the impeachment proceedings against President Trump begin again next week, he won't be the only one facing scrutiny, Rep. Jerry Nadler said.
"The Senate is on trial as well as the president," Nadler said during a Wednesday press conference. "Does the Senate conduct a trial according to the Constitution to vindicate the Republic, or does the Senate participate in the president’s crimes by covering them up?”
**SNIP**
"The emphasis is on litigators and on making the strongest possible case to the American people," the speaker said.
Nadler, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, called into questioned the integrity of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who has indicated the chamber's majority will be in lockstep with the White House regarding Trump's impeachment.
"If the Senate doesn’t permit the introduction of all relevant witnesses and all of the documents that the House wants to introduce, because the House is the prosecutor here, then the Senate is engaging in an unconstitutional and disgusting cover-up," Nadler said.

Before the idiots in his NY District elected him, the Penguin was a night court lawyer handling parking tickets. Now Jerry Nadler is going to lecture the Senate on the Constitution? Oh Boy...
The ‘Ratz are a cunning bunch and deserve to be exterminated.
No the democrats are not cunning, they are nothing more than dirtbag, scumbag liars
Yes, the house is on trial and the verdict will be known in early November.
I hope that the new R House will immediately reincarnate The House Un-American Activities Committee.
Just imagine if a prosecutor stated before the trial that the Jury was on trial. They would be disbarred.
“The democrats should be on trial for fraud.”
They should be censured for violating their Oaths. Their constituency should recall them for same, but...
The upper chamber impeaching someone in the lower chamber seems a reach.
“The Democrats feel that President Trump is guilty. They don’t have a crime. They don’t have any evidence.”
I swear I believe that a lot of the animosity directed at President Trump is pure jealousy. These weak , pathetic politicians (and others) can’t stand that they will never be president, never be a billionaires, and never have one of the hottest women in the world for a wife.
It was just noted on Fox and Friends, the bastion of president Trump network coverage, that the four Democrat Senators running for President must recuse them selves.
Senator Marsha Blackburn announced that candidates that oppose the president can not possibly render a fair verdict and must recuse themselves
I saw an article this week in which some media person attacked President Trump as a mediocre man who has achieved nothing.
Best selling author, major TV star, billionaire, non-politician who got elected President.
This is a mediocrity?
As you say, they are very jealous. Especially so because real career politicians specialize in getting nothing done but simply perpetuating existing problems. Trump came in and just started fixing stuff. Like it was easy. He really shows how useless the “elites” are.
Nadler deserves the gallows, but it is cruel and unusual punishment to execute the insane, even if criminally insane. . . .
“...a lot of the animosity directed at President Trump is pure jealousy.”
Absolutely!
Butt-hurt loser adult children, throwing a loud temper tantrum on the store floor over dad denying them their candy and toy.
Communists should be on trial
So says the fat slob.
Relevant witnesses a guy who met a guy who had a sister who has an aunt who knows a guy who mows the lawn at the WH.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Does the House have Constitutional authority to control the Senate, or vice versa? I don’t think so! If the Senate Republicans don’t break rank, they could squash this usurpation by dinner time.
[The lady on the left looks like JarJar!]
Yep! I may add more to a newer version, LOL
I was thinking of several things last night to add.
What a tub of vomitous slime this repulsive butt crack of a creature is.
Would love to see someone go all Al Pacino....”YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER..THEY’RE OUT OF ORDER.....THIS WHOLE TRIAL IS OUT OF ORDER!!”
Somebody said it looks like JarJar
The Senate’s on trial?
Nadler “We cannot wait four years to vote Mr. Trump out of office...”
Rep. Al Green, “ We have to Impeach him now or I’m afraid he will be reelected in 2020.”
AOC said of the Impeachment “...preventing a potentially disastrous outcome in 2020.”
Why could I possibly dispise democrats?
