READ: Article of impeachment against Trump
thehill.com ^ | 01/11/21 | The Hill staff

Posted on 01/11/2021 9:06:50 AM PST by Berlin_Freeper

House Democrats on Monday released a revised article of impeachment against President Trump.

The proposed resolution was drafted in response to last Wednesday's Capitol riot. The article, formally introduced on Monday, is based on a draft released one day after the riot.

The resolution charges Trump with "inciting violence against the government of the United States" first by "repeatedly issu[ing] false statements" about the presidential election as well as by speaking to the mob before it breached the Capitol.

Democrats are prepared to vote on the resolution this week. If it passes, it will be the second time the House has voted to impeach Trump.

Read the full resolution below.

Stealing an Election is not Incitement, telling People how the Election was stolen is.

Got it.

I think now I see what’s happening.

They will ratchet up Impeachment talk, only to basically drop it once Biden is sworn in, “For The Good of the Country and Trying to Unify the country, although we would have been perfectly justified to do it.”

Then the Media will praise Biden as the “Great Uniter”.

"repeatedly issu[ing] false statements" about the presidential election

In a real court the discovery process would be a sight to behold!

I am not sure if at this point I want the Dems to overplay their hand and do it. I don’t trust the Republicans in the Senate as far as I could kick them.

It is almost like the Dems want a real insurrection. Reap the whirlwind.

The term “false statements” about the election means they suppressed the evidence, got every news outlet to say “but you need proof, you need evidence, not just talk and accusations about rumors” and the SCOTUS to not allow discussion in a court presentation of charges from the states. So they call what they disagree with “false” or like the tech media CEOS call disagreement “hate speech” to be deleted and banned.

When Gore complained we didn’t call him a terrorist leader for disagreeing with the Florida outcome. Just disagreed.

The House impeaches, and the floor vote will pass tomorrow.

Then The Senate can vote to convict the indictment.

Its happening

In 3rd world countries, after the Junta conducts a coup, they take-over the state-run radio and TV stations to broadcast their propoganda. They demonize the former ruler and harass his political allies and supporters. If he’s not killed, they try to isolate and humiliate him. They then organize the organs of government to suppress dissent.

They cannot stand his accomplishments. Trump will be sorely missed. Just give it a few months.

Read it and from my amateur standpoint it is pure trash. But of course the “rule of Law” no longer prevails in the US, it is the “rule of power” so anything goes.

Yes. It’s already dead in the Senate. Maybe to discredit Trump if he reveals anything.

If the insurrection act has been invoked, congress has no standing. The dont exist. They can do whatever they want, it has no meaning or effect if the military is in charge under martial law....just wait till the 14th ammendment is called up. Thats when the fun begins.

For this to happen, isn’t it required for the corrupt, dementia-ridden dumbass come out of his basement and ask Congress to drop their delusion?

“The resolution charges Trump with “inciting violence against the government of the United States” first by “repeatedly issu[ing] false statements” “

Those this mean the Democrats will have to prove the statements are false.

Will we see the election on trial during the impeachment?
