GOP Senator 'Disturbed' By McConnell Coordinating With Trump Staff On Impeachment
NPR ^ | December 26, 2019

Posted on 12/26/2019 11:20:15 AM PST by DOC44

Alaska Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski told a local television affiliate that she's "disturbed" by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's plans to use "total coordination" with the White House to set out President Trump's impeachment trial. Murkowski, who remains a wild card in a potential Senate trial, has been tight-lipped on the effort. However, she shared her concerns with McConnell's recent comments in an interview with KTUU in Anchorage, Alaska.

She’s totally disturbed by anything Trump and republicans do. Time to get rid of her, Alaska. She’s not part of the team, no matter what the team does. She’s more from the other side, while pretending to be part of the team.

I thought Alaska was a state where men are men, women are women, and everyone carries a gun powerful enough to stop a grizzly bear.

Anchorage population at 200,000 is almost a third of the state total of 700,000, but only the downtown area votes Democrat.

Juneau the state capital has only 31,000.

So where do all these RINOs come from who reelect Murkowski?

I'm old enough to remember when Tom Daschle, Democrat Senate Majority Leader, coordinated with a Democrat White House during an impeachment...

Schumer And McConnell Visited By Ghosts Of Impeachment Past
https://wjla.com/news/nation-world/schumer-and-mcconnell-visited-by-ghosts-of-impeachment-past

"...Democratic critics argued that McConnell's statement was tantamount to rigging the trial. McConnell defended his position saying that Democratic Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle coordinated with the Clinton White House during the earlier impeachment. Daschle acknowledged that his staff coordinated with the Clinton administration..."

Allow Alaska Freeper sasportas to explain:

Judging by the comments here, it appears FReepers don’t understand that Alaska has had a number done on it by the left (I speak am a long time Alaskan).

Alaska has a very small population, and easy to manipulate. Half the population lives in Anchorage, the rest scattered over a vast area. The left had only to target Anchorage to take over the state. There have orchestrated a mass influx of third world types into Anchorage...and we know how they vote...and so does Murkowski.

She was originally somewhat like her dad, Frank Murkowski, a Reagan Republican, but with her finger to the changed demographics of Anchorage, she has made herself the favorite politician of the new third world majority in Anchorage...the rest of us in the “bush” be damned, selling out the rest of the state who have alwasys voted conservative.

Anchorage is the crux of the problem.

==============

It's the successful invasion strategy of Æthelblack the Unready and his bankroller Soros - move the invaders to where they can do the most damage...

That’s odd-——I did a global search. Found nothing.

Murkowski was radio silent about Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats “coordinating” the impeachment of Trump.

Ain’t that amazing? Not a peep as the Little Tyrant Schiff repeatedly denied Republicans the chance to speak, to testify, to object.

Not even so much as a gasp from her.

Wonder what she’s angling for? Blackmail Mitch for another appropriation? Bridges to nowhere, built by her favorite contractor?

President impeachment should be conducted along the lines of a criminal trial.

The defendant and his legal counsel should be kept fully informed of relevant dates, charges and evidence.

Hearsay evidence and misleading evidence of possibly impeachable actions of other executive branch persons have no place in a impeachment trial of a president.

Geez! How many states in the U.S. consist of rural/small town majorities dominated by the liberal politics of the largest city in the state? It’s a bunch!

OK

Tell schmuckie he’ll get everything he wants

Let nazi pee lousy know she’ll get everything she wants

Accept the articles of impeachment ....

and sit on them until both are voted out of office .... or just .... forever.

Tell them you’re waiting until you can feel assured the Republicans will give you a fair trial and right now .... you’re not so sure.

Go home, play golf, retire.

Chief Justice Roberts will be in charge of the impeachment trial.

Mitch and his fellow senators will be little more than jurors.

Amendment VI does not apply to impeachment, which is merely a job termination civil proceeding. There is no Amendment VI requirement for a speedy impeachment trial or for an impartial jury for Trump’s impeachment trial.

Which impeachment is Nancy doing now?

Schrödinger's Cat Impeachment: As Nancy refuses to hand over impeachment to the Senate, Trump might be both Impeached and Not Impeached at the same time.

Seinfeld Impeachment: An impeachment about NOTHING.

The ObamaCare Impeachment: The House passes the Articles of Impeachment first then they figure out what they did doesn't work and hands them off to Chief Justice Roberts to fix, at trial, in the Senate.

The Rorschach Test Impeachment: Throw ink against the hearing room wall and interpret it in any way you want. It can be treason to some, bribe to others, and a perfectly legal exercise of the Separation of Powers to others.

The 6th Sense Impeachment: Where the audience (the American people) finds out at the end, the Articles of Impeachment were dead the whole time.

The Flaming Bags of Dog Poop Impeachment: Nancy sets fire to a flaming bag of dog poop at the front door of the Senate, but delays ringing the doorbell. This buys time for Schiff and Nadler to put together a second bag of flaming dog poop. Nancy sets up the second bag of dog poop at the back door of the Senate. Sooner or later, Nancy rings the front doorbell. Mitch stamps out the fire at the front door. Then Nancy rings the doorbell at the Senate's back door, forcing Mitch to track dog poop throughout the Senate. Mitch stamps out the second flaming bag of dog poop, getting his shoes even dirtier. (This seems to be the most accurate predicted plan for Impeachment.)
