Public Notice of the Impeachment has already been Given!
December 20, 2019 | Petrosius

Posted on 12/20/2019 5:11:39 AM PST by Petrosius

Speaker Nancy Pelosi has threatened to withhold sending the notification of the Impeachment to the Senate until she gets guarantees of a "fair trial." Yet public notification has already been given, in the Congressional Record. All that Senator Mich McConnell needs to do is read this record on the floor of the Senate and then proceed either to a trial or a motion for dismissal. If he proceeds to a trial and the House does not send any managers, he could then easily move to dismissal on the basis that the House has failed to present its case.

Nazi Pelousy’s idea of a fair trial is only democRats get to vote. She believes they are the only Senators who are unbiased.

A tribunal doesn't start until it has been presented a case. The senate is the tribunal. It has not been presented a case. The house resolved to exhibit the articles to the senate, but it hasn't done that yet.

The delay is fine. The house voted in December 1998 to exhibit the Clinton articles. It got around to doing what it had resolved to do, the following January.

The pelosi black dress of chic solemnity was followed by an appearance in her red power dress to vacillate about presentation to the senate

The red dress incident was purely a gambit to increase the drama over the holidays

Does Pelosi eat with a bib now?

With all those denture and oral control issues, she MUST dribble her food...

And that is exactly true. She does think only Democrats are unbiased and righteous. They will drag this out as long as possible. I have no faith that Mitch can put a quick end to this. The goal is to just have him tied to the word impeachment. It’s like saying someone has Aids, it gets attention of the masses. In reality the Democrats claiming a win is like they won the first 5 minutes of a basketball game, calling timeout and claiming victory.

“ It has not been presented a case”

Mitch can deem the case presented. Ask Pelosi about deeming something.

DEMOCRATS THIRST FOR POWER IS INSATIABLE—Nanzi’s determined to be president

Breaking: Adam Schiff Sets Eyes on Pence – He’s “Acquired Evidence” From Ukrainian Investigation
GP ^ | 12/19/19 | Jim Hoft
Posted on 12/19/2019, 4:13:02 PM by Enlightened1

Adam Schiff went on with Rachel Maddow last night to push their Trump-Ukraine conspiracy — something that was completely debunked everywhere after three weeks of testimony except on CNN, MSNBC and the fake news media.

During their conversation Schiff announced he was going after Vice President Mike Pence next and may have “acquired evidence” that the Vice President is hiding information in the House Ukrainian investigation.

Adam Schiff: Well, we have acquired a piece of evidence, classified by Jennifer Williams, something she alluded to in her open testimony. Then going back and looking through her records she found other information that was pertinent to that phone call that we asked her about and made that submission.

There is nothing that is classified in the document but the vice president’s office has said they are going to classify… It is not proper to classify something because it would be embarrassing or incriminating. And that submission does shed light on the vice president’s knowledge. We think the American people should see it.

Jennifer Williams testified before Congress in November and offered nothing. She worked for Vice President Mike Pence. So now Schiff has Democrats thinking Williams holds the key to Pence’s impeachment.

I’d sit back and let the Dems continue hanging themselves. Any action by the Senate would give them an excuse.

I would not. They hanged themselves already. Take up the articles and dismiss them on the floor tomorrow, with prejudice and get on with the business of governing the country. This charade needs to end.

A tribunal doesn't start until it has been presented a case. The senate is the tribunal. It has not been presented a case. The house resolved to exhibit the articles to the senate, but it hasn't done that yet.

There is no Constitutional requirement that the House formally present the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate; only that the person shall be impeached. This the House did with the adoption of H.R. 755 which reads:

Resolved, That Donald John Trump, President of the United States, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate:…
The House has given public notice the President Trump has been impeached. The Senate is thus free to schedule a trial. If the House does not follow-up by sending Managers and exhibiting the Articles of Impeachment, then the Senate could dismiss the impeachment on the basis of the House's failure to present its case, just as a judge could dismiss a case if a prosecutor failed to show up for a scheduled trial. The Senate has complete freedom to establish its own rules for the trial.

I’m not going to discuss this matter with you. I find your theory kooky.

~~~

21 years. Not a round twenty, but it is yet another hint that the Clinton/Obama cartel still controls the DNC decision making in Washington.

No wonder this flimsy crap sandwich got through the house so fast. It’s pure symbollism December is when Bill Clinton’s articles passed the house?

Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself.

“I find your theory kooky.”

That’s the point. Remember when Pelosi attempted to “deem” Obamacare passed? Sauce for the goose.

But the house hasn’t voted to send the articles yet. This isn’t like what happened with Clinton.

Mitch can deem the case presented.


^ This, and in the same breath dismiss with prejudice. These constant threads are idiotic anyway. They solve nothing. The hose and senate are going to do what they do and no one can change that.
