Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., who worked on the impeachments of Presidents Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton, said Sunday the accusations against President Donald Trump are “more serious” because they involve a foreign nation.

In an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Lofgren, who drafted an article of impeachment against Nixon, said she “would welcome an opportunity to reach a different conclusion about the president's misconduct.”

These people are nuts. Clinton was getting BJ in the oval office and lied under oath. Nixon was organizing breakins. Trump made a phone call.

Hearsay is better than direct evidence.

Accusations are more important than actual facts.

Got it.

using the IRS to block your political opponents and selling guns to mexican cartels are 10 times worse than anything Nixon did and the dems were silent.

Zoe sat on her hands when Soetoro traded 5 terrorists from Gitmo, without Congressional oversight (by law) for a traitorous US Army puke, then gave a "foreign government" pallets of unmarked cash as part of a nuke-bomb-building-permission deal.

Pack it with walnuts, Zoe!

The Peninsula Pansy is somewhat correct. If there were credible FIRST HAND evidence to support these wild accusations, it probably would be worse than doing first hand oppo research or a blow job from under the Oval Office desk.

However, "I overheard my cousin telling his sister that his wife's brother claims to have heard a partial phone conversation with Donald Trump and someone" is not first hand evidence. Even Judge Judy would not allow this kind of 5th hand "evidence" in her pretend court.

 

Gloria All-red, I'm not so sure about...

Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif: “Impeach Accusations Against Trump ‘More Serious’ Than Against Nixon”

If only it was based on fact. It then would be Hugh and Series.

No matter WHAT the Dems do to avoid it, they are going to take a huge hit for illegal espionage against the Trump campaign.

I ask myself every single day what is it the Democrats and NeverTrumper Republicans are afraid of having exposed by this president. This entire impeachment proceeding is a mountain of BS and anybody with an inkling of common sense knows it is. Something has to give here. We can’t just give these coup plotters a slap on the wrist and move on.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), who also attended the briefing, agreed. "Who are these people? As it turns out … they were government officials. They weren’t soldiers, and they aren’t soldiers now."

Well, Zoe....

Five members of the Afghan Taliban who were freed from the US military prison at Guantanamo Bay in exchange for captured American Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl have joined the terrorist group's political office in Qatar.

One of the five, Mohammed Fazl, is accused of overseeing the massacre of thousands of Shiites and Ethnic Pashtuns. Another, Khairullah Khairkhwa, was a friend of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

All five of the former Gitmo detainees were close to the hard-line founder of the Taliban movement, Mullah Mohammed Omar

The Taliban 5 were released by President Obama in 2014.

We have it on good authority that on Flag Day in 1946, Donald Trump exposed himself to multiple female nurses. He was as nekkid as a jaybird.

“More serious” because Democrats hate Trump more than Nixon. But still no evidence.
