Oh, and a beautiful one at that:-)
This lady can write! So glad she left CBS.

Bttt
... When asked, Kent agreed that it was unprecedented for a U.S. official to give a foreign president a six hour deadline to fire a prosecutor as a condition for receiving U.S. aid.
And the New York Times doesn't see a story here? Thank God for Sharyl Attkisson... ...
DITTO
Can someone tell: procedurally, Schiff’s impeachment proceedings are technically still looking for an actual crime, correct? This is merely an (highly political and media) investigation, yes?
When I read something by her or Solomon I take it as fact.
Refreshing
Ping list ping.
(For any who missed it, there was another good article from her about this mess, posted in this thread: "The president, not diplomats, sets 'official foreign policy".)
“Inquiry” is what Pelousy called it today...inquiring into a crime...in other words, yes, a Search for a crime
The new position is that they (the Dems) don’t actually have to prove a crime. Crime isn’t the standard.
The standard for impeachment is now something unbecoming to the office or improper.
They also (seriously) are suggesting that a mere majority in the Senate is enough to remove Trump. The super-majority, yeah it’s in the Constitution, shouldn’t be the threshold of the equivalent of a ‘no confience’ vote in Parliament.
Rewriting centuries of common law, Dems now say hearsay is not only admissible, but it’s also superior to actual firsthand witnesses.
Kent says the new president of Ukraine and new prosecutor have agreed to review the old crimes never brought to justice, but that often people are never held to account in notoriously corrupt Ukraine so there is lots to review.Notoriously corrupt Ukraine. Does any other country fit the bill?
bfl
Seems kind of unusual for a VP to make so many trips to a foreign country, doesn’t it? Especially one where corruption is known to be so rampant.
Notoriously corrupt Ukraine. Does any other country fit the bill”?
The United States, China, Mexico, most of Central and South America, the Middle East, Africa, Europe... ..
If this ever goes to a senate trial, RINOs seem to be against calling any witnesses that have anything to so with the Bidens (Graham? Who knows). But in that case Trump’s attorneys could call the Bidens and maybe Brennan and Clapper.
its almost funny how Pelousy claimed to not believe the ‘impeachment’ move was justified, for so very long...
and now that she says she’s ‘doubling down on impeachment....
and openly pushing for it,
the entire “case” has fallen apart...gloriously ...
1. Russia collusion (whatever the hell that was supposed to mean, anyway)... went completely off the agenda, Mueller found zero
2. Ukraine “quid pro quo” (and what would’ve been criminal about that!? we have a treaty with Ukraine that they will help us investigate criminal activity like the Biden/Kerry sale of “access and favors in Wash DC” there) turns out to have been Bidens and Kerry, NOT Trump!
3. even the logic of the very allegation has failed,
if it ever existed. As, it would have been a very good thing, and completely legal too, had PDJT withheld foreign aid gift money there if they had failed to honor their treaty to investigate criminal Bidens/Kerry
so now Pelousy has changed her vocabulary again and is using the word “bribery”— which is AMAZINGLY ironic since its been the D’s (Bidens, Kerry, HilLIARy, etc.) that have been taking foreign bribes in exchange for their sale of American foreign policy, foreign aid, weaponry)....
Pelousy went out on the limb without a safety net..and she’s falling, falling, falling so badly....badly....
this “impeachment” krap will SPLAT really soon, methinks, now that its clear to the American public that its been nothing more than a giant, vindictive pile of lying BS
Did anybody ever suggest that FDR should be impeached because of Harry Hopkins's "irregular diplomacy?" I don't think so. Hopkins went way beyond anything Giuliani did.
This is merely corraboration of Rudy’s preview testimony to Steponallofus on Sept. 29.
