Rep. Ted Lieu: If Trump fired Rosenstein and Mueller, "I believe Congress would begin impeachment proceedings." https://t.co/lqJ0JTg1l6 — Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) June 17, 2017
Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) said Friday that Congress would come together and “begin impeachment proceedings” against President Trump if he fired special counsel Robert Mueller and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
“All Americans, regardless of party, agree on the fundamental principle that no one is above the law,” Lieu said on MSNBC. “And if President Trump were to fire Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein, and then [get] special counsel Mueller fired, I believe Congress would begin impeachment proceedings.”

She was on Fox this week, but don’t remember which show.
The OTHER one Needs to FIRE is RON ROSENSTEIN!!!! He’s a DEMOCRAT CREEP!!! FIRE HIM, PRESIDENT TRUMP!!
I agree with you wholeheartedly. However, I find it frustrating there are some out there that want him to give up Twitter all together; even those on our side. It’s hard to understand that surrender type of mentality.
They ignored him and us. Then they mocked us, even here on this site. Then they fought him, then we won.
The election is over. No more contest.
Any attempt to impeach President Trump by the left will trigger a more serious contest: CW II.
The leettle brown mouse in my pocketses says, “We’re at the point now with these vicious clowns where we know better, but we might welcome it.”
I’m fed up with their BS.
Serious question: Other than whispers from "anonymous sources" intent on dividing Trump's supporters, what basis do you have for believing that Pence is plotting against Trump?
If the GOP think’s they will end up with President Pence they are crazy. Next step if Trump is impeached and convicted would be the Pence impeachment.
Just surprised some wacko judge on the 9th circus hasn’t tried to nullify election and place Hillary in WH by judicial degree.
Trump is not going to fire them but both of them may resign.
++++
At last, a sensible post.
Perhaps I should say their actions are pushing us to CWII.
We are a critical point in our nation’s politicians to govern. Never in the history have we had a group of people so driven by hate of a elected president they cannot function as normal representative of their constituents. If Trump produced a cure for cancer it would be automatically construed as an impeachable offence. If Trump solve the world hunger issue it would be an impeachable offense. The opposition have managed to squander their hold on Washington and are not prepared to accept the fact the voter have spoken. Instead of focusing on the 2018 elections and move in a direction more appealing to the nation the are hell bent on moving further left and destroying anything in their path.
I’m not sure that it is even necessary for the Supreme Court to be OK with it? Hover it does have to be a High Crime or misdemeanor and firing an appointee of the executive is a stretch and any such overreach by Congress would most probably be appealed directly further weakening our constitution. The Democrats & Republicans should be very careful in going down that road.
Eggzactly!
No you’re not paying attention. Read how the process works and stop wasting my time.

I, for one, would not tolerate impeachment not hearings on such. The more they do, the angrier I become, and the fight just strengthens..
Those who are doing this, are making us more solid Trump supporters than ever, in our stance against ‘them’. To see the republicans whimper into a corner, makes it even more so that we stand with President Trump 100%. They have mistakenly believed they can persuade us from supporting him... and I hope they have managed to turn some who didn’t vote for Trump, to seeing him more favorably.
It’s for sure they have underestimated our numbers out here.. The election came as a complete shock.
Our courts are as corrupted as our government had become. Even Putin sees that “obama left Trump a mind field”... yes he did... and it’s time the dems lost some congressional elections.
What I fail to understand is why Trump and Sessions are failing to use the powers of the justice department to convene grand juries and bring forth indictments in the pay for play of the klinton foundation. Benghazi, reopen hitlery on the erased emails, go after susan rice and nobama on the illegal redacting of the names, the former AG obstruction of justice on the hiltery “matter” and not “investigation”....do this now at same time all the shit on the single “Russian” thing....and “tit for tat”...let’s see who starts crying to shut everything down quickly!!!
it is the only way the a-holes on the left know how to fight and the law is on our side anyway! What are they scaredof? Trump is not using the power!
Great. Let’s get this nonsense over with. the sooner we’re done with it, the sooner we can get back to business.
Somebody forgot to tell the DEMS they aren’t in power anymore. A GOP congress is not going to impeach Trump. You watch too much TV.
Never noticed Tink with VPL before.
