Impeach 45!
Here we go again.
******************
Yep.... opinion written by CLINTON JUDGE.
When Trump-Coronavirus flames out they will go back to Trump-Russia.
Can this be appealed to the Supremes?
Yes and it will be. Trump’s team has been expecting this.
Yes Judge, give secrets to loose lips congress that even you are not allowed to see.
I agree with the judge. We will turn it over as soon as we do an in depth security clearance check on each congressman/woman and have them sign non disclosure under penalty of death statements.
Jail for judges who rule based on anything but constitutional law.
Legislative power gone wild. Once legislature creates an agency, the agency becomes part of the Executive branch.
OMG giving grand jury testimony to Schiff they might as well just publish it on the front page of the New York Times AND WP just skip the middle man and send the testimony directly to both new papers!!!
Dats Fotah-fyv
The decision will be appealed, and if a majority on the appeals court agrees with the 2-1 initial decision of 3 of its members, DOJ will appeal that decision to the SCOTUS.
Appealed immediately.
It’ll get shot down later. They have no right to it under law. It is completely within the executive branch and only a summary is forwarded.
Executive privilege will kill that on appeal.
Of course. What else would rat courts decide?
What was the justification?
The court’s 2-1 decision agreed with a lower court that the House Judiciary Committee can obtain the information for impeachment investigations of President Trump under an exception for “judicial proceedings,” per the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.
SCOTUS appeal next.
Jesters ain't blind...
A Rapin Bill judge and a Smirking Chimp judge agreed with the lower court's Clownbammy judge Beryl Howell to "get" Orange Man Bad.
Just another day in The Swamp.
