MSNBC chief legal analyst commit heresy, admits on air that Democrats ‘didn’t provide enough evidence’ to prove Trump obstructed Congress
American Thinker ^ | 01/26/2020 | Thomas Lifson

The TDS-addled viewers that comprise the audience for MSNBC don’t want honest appraisals of the strength of the case presented by the House impeachment managers. They have become a cult founded on the belief that Donald Trump somehow is a threat to the Republic, though the concentration camps, wars blundered into, and economic depression so confidently predicted have nowhere manifested themselves in this dimension of reality. The only apocalypse in sight is a potential crushing Democrat defeat at the polls in November once voters focus on whether their lives are better off now than they were 4 years ago.

President Trump is still hated with passion, but cultists hate heretics even more than they hate the imagined progenitor of apocalypse their fevered vision predicts. Heretics are simply intolerable, for they undermine the solidarity that enables the cultists to continue to believe their fantasies, the absurd storylines in which they are the saviors of an ungrateful mass not sufficiently woke enough to perceive the danger that preoccupies their waking hours and their dreams.

Poor Ari Melber, chief legal analyst at MSNBC and host of The Beat with Ari Melber, must have thought that his role at the network included sober and fair legal analysis. What else could explain him delivering a verdict on the case presented by the House Impeachment Managers that was less than full throated endorsement of the need to assemble with pitchforks and torches and march on the White House?

Watch as Melber, a Cornell Law School graduate, comments on the adequacy of the evidence assembled by the House Democrats and presented to the Senate, and receives pushback from panelists Maya Wiley and former Senator Claire McCaskill:

Look, if Fox News can have Andrew Napolitano, why can’t MSNBC have this legal analyst?

Anyone with half a brain could see that the Rats are a bunch of lying scumbags. Unfortunately the Rat base doesn’t have a brain. Just a wide spot in their central nervous system system.

Wonder why keeping a bunch of Bullshit Artists from screwing up the country is considered obstruction?

Well, I just don't have that BLANKET kind of thinking for ever single solitary Democrat in this country, leader or constituent.
Life must be very simple for you--no gray areas whatsoever.

All the Dems have/had was ‘the seriousness of the charge’ without any substance — evidence.

That, basically, is what they have been trying to sell since Shifty claimed he had real evidence that he failed to produce and he refused to let the whistleblower testify.

They didn’t make their case, so Schumer will now be crying for more witnesses in hopes that someone might say something that has the appearance of being evidence.

(I put this comment on the wrong thread and can't delete it)

Wait until this bomb hits the senate on Monday.

Texas Rep. John Radcliffe told Maria Bartiromo (Sunday) that Adam Schiff buried one of his secret interviews conducted in private behind closed doors during the impeachment inquiry.

While Schiff used numerous quotes from 17 'witnesses', he chose not to even acknowledge the 18th interview with Inspector General Michael Atkinson.

That 179 page report stated that the whistle blower that Schiff used to instigate the impeachment vote lied in his written statement and did so again while under oath during oral testimony.

According to Radcliffe, the report also stated that the coordination and timing of the news leaks between the Schiff team and the whistle blower, who Schiff claims not to know, had gone on for several months, possibly over a year.

prove Trump obstructed Congress

Every president who has ever issued a Veto, per the Constitution, has "obstructed Congress".

It's not an impeachable offense.

Even if they would have ..it doesn’t matter because its not an impeachable offence.
Especially since “obstruction of Congress” is a bogus charge.

And that wide spot is filled with Shiff; that’s why we call them “SHIFF FOR BRAINS”.
