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.

Churchill is one of my favorites!
Funny words coming from a man who represents a state that refuses to abide by this nation’s immigration laws. This is a flat out witch hunt against President Trump and they all know it!
Lieu said on MSNBC
Call their bluff
While Trump should not fire Mueller, he should put a time limit on him.
“I firmly believe this would all “go away” if President Trump put the twitter box down and just did what he said he was going to do during the campaign.”
With all due respect I must disagree. If he had the support of his own party you would be right. He does not. Without the “twitter box” he would be at the mercy of MSM who got GWB down to the low 30’s and no 2nd term. He must do SOMETHING about Mueller. Mueller obviously is not the least bit concerned about even the appearance of objectivity as fills his team with Rat mercenaries. He will not stop until Trump is destroyed make no mistake with it’s personal.
Bring It, Beotches.
So tired of this BS from the Socialist Democrat Party!
The demonrats aren’t above the law. Hellary isn’t above the law. Mueller isn’t above the law. And those hate filled celebs and msm who spew hate aren’t above the law.
It sounds as if you might want a form of George W. Bush back...at least in style. George W. Bush was boring as Hell and never fought back ever...he barely even communicated at all in his second term. And he was so demonized by turning the field over entirely to the Democrats unopposed that he buried himself and his party...maybe forever.
America voted for a fighter, it was only his fight that won the election over the almost-coronated Marxist Queen. Fact is, to get is agenda through - to do what the people sent him to do - he will need the votes of of the deep state, deep swamp Congress...a Congress that across party lines opposes him and his agenda and only desires his personal destruction so they can get back to looting the country and controlling the masses like they desire to.
He might as well fight back. Congress will not help him. The war here has only begun...a quiet mouse of a president will be buried in the swamp. We are pretty much down to three options: Trump’s fight, complete totalitarian subservience, or violent revolution. I’d like to try at least fighting back with option 1.
Yeah. It will be congress against the people. It’s not supposed to be like that.
Oh, have they got the votes?
There are 300 million people in this country and only half voted, so that leaves about 150 million unknowns out there. I pray most of those support Trump.
Trump’s in this media mess partly as the result of his own doing (e.g., not getting rid of people early on, juvenile tweeting, falling into various dem traps, going to battle with media and then capitulating, loss of control of DOJ, etc.). Time will tell if he’s really between a rock and a hard place or just staying slightly above the fray. One thing’s for sure, people are getting tired of this crap. The only question is who are they going to take it out on.
I agree with your assessment of Trump’s habits and lacking what would bring him out of the dunce cap state. I’ve said as much before... don’t complain and whine on twitter... he sounds like he is acquiescing when all he does is reiterate how he feels about them. DO .. ACT... and don’t defend, it brings on more attacks. Get your attorneys on this and get things rolling that will quell the left... so far, they are being inflamed. It doesn’t look like you have anyone on this, doing anything .. twittering is not going to fix this. Decisive actions with “4 or more in agreement” from your roster of persons you can trust... will do wonders!
Gutless Republican twits.
Because the Obama administration was able to have investigations on itself with Benghazi, IRS, Fast and Furious, Hillary and, even Russia election all within three months each. It seems that all or parts of this investigation should be ended with four or five months. I would suggest that Mueller has a time limit. And I would say that listening into conversations and leaking are two reasons why the FBI should not be given unlimited time to continue this investigation. It causes a J. Edgar Hoover style cancer on the government which allows a secret agency to know things about everyone that is not public.
It seems as if Ryan is moving to force the resignations of both Trump and Pence. Seems like a Uniparty coup to me.
If Democrats had any ethics......
Bwahaha! I couldn’t read any further. Seriously lacking in that department.
Too bad we can't treat other laws the same way — I'd start with Obamacare. I don't believe in it and so why should I comply with it? I suspect that you'd find a lot of like-minded people.
Ryan’s the guy who’s gonna resign.
The guy who couldn’t even get KenyaKare repealed?
He’s about as popular as a case of the clap.
