That is Schiff’s way of trying to run the senate trial like he did the house. McConnell will slap him down like a bug.

Pretty sure that is not what Schiff was talking about.

He was talking about whether the Senate acts as Judicial Review. He is willing to abide by what Roberts rules and challenges the others to do the same.

I don't understand why Republicans like Romney can't see this clearly?

Yes, that is the basic question. I believe Romney is constantly angling for the White House, and he has no intention of seeing anything that would help PDJT. As many here have observed, Collins and possibly a few others are too worried about re-election to chance common sense at this point.

Actually, there is a straight line from Bill Clinton's rise to power back to the earliest modern DC sex scandal.

In 1974, the powerful Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee Wilbur Mills (D-AR) was caught with stripper Fanne Foxe (the "Tidal Basin Bombshell) when he was pulled over at 2:00am for a DUI. Mills represented Little Rock for 38 years.

Mills resigned, and Clinton buddy Jim Guy Tucker (then Arkansas Attorney General) succeeded Mills in Congress. Clinton took Tucker's seat as Attorney General. Clinton eventually became Governor, and when he became President Tucker left Congress and became Governor after Clinton.

In the 1992 Democrat primary, former Massachusetts Senator Paul Tsongas was the early front-runner; Bill Clinton was struggling with infidelity questions. Tsongas had retired from the Senate in 1984 because he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma (John Kerry took his seat). Tsongas underwent a bone marrow transplant to treat the disease in 1986 and received a clean bill of health from doctors in 1991.

The whisper campaign began against Tsongas that his health was still in doubt, and Tsongas' popularity began to wane as Clinton's begun to surge. Tsongas eventually dropped out of the race.

As it turned out, Tsongas died 1997 from a return of the cancer, which would have been in the seventh year of his Presidency. People were right to question his health.

So do I have to go back to being a nervous wreck?

Only if you think that Republicans are the Stupid Party that likes to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Philbin knocking it out of the park again re: Trump can’t be impeached for his Constitutional exercising of his duties and privileges as POTUS.

QUESTION:

“Mr Schiff, it seems that your argument is that your Committee was authorized to start an impeachment inquiry. Does the Chair of the House Subcommittee on National Parks and Public Lands have the power to commence an Impeachment Inquiry? Why or why not?
