House Democrats to Introduce Articles of Impeachment Against Trump
Wall Street Journal ^ | 1/08/2021 | WSJ

Posted on 01/08/2021 2:26:51 PM PST by bob_esb

More than 150 House Democrats, well over half of the caucus, have signed on to articles of impeachment written by Reps. David Cicilline of Rhode Island, Ted Lieu of California and Jamie Raskin of Maryland that focus on the breach of the Capitol complex and accuse the president of inciting an insurrection.

For up-to-the-minute coverage of the upheaval in Washington, see WSJ’s Live Updates

“This conduct is so grave and this president presents such a clear and present danger to our democracy, I don’t think you can simply say let’s just wait it out” until the president leaves office, said Mr. Cicilline in an interview. President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration is Jan. 20.

Like guest on Bannon just said.....if they can impeach a sitting President, for this BS, they can do this....and, worse.....to anybody.

The tech purge is just the tip, I’m afraid.

They are more afraid of what Trump has on them.

Those 17 GOP Senators are walking dead men the next time up for re-election if they vote YEA, especially with only a few days to go in Trump’s term in office. Trump will personally fly in with the Trump 757 and hold a huge rally to defeat them. And he’ll hammer them incessantly in the run up.

Do you mean “them” going before a tribunal & getting 10 years for insurrection, or Pres. Trump going before a tribunal & getting 10 years for insurrection?

Just want to make sure I understood you correctly, is all. IIRC, the impeachment hearings in Round 1 lasted weeks. Thanks — AFB-XYZ

Mr. President:
How about declassifying the House and Senate slush funds used to pay for the abuses of many elected officials.
Names, please.

Keeping Trump off the ballot in 2024.

Maybe. But in our Brave New World of toppled statues, PDJT is the biggest statue of all. Impeachment will just take the place of the public hanging they've all been salivating over for four years.

In other news, cheerleaders across the nation are cowering in fear that the chant “Kill the Tigers” might be construed as inciting violence.

You might get some Dems to go along, as that means President Kammy. Dems have us in a nutcracker because of the fraudulently seated coup.

> We have to destroy what is left of the GOP and build a new party.

Methinks you will quickly find out the GOP are street fighters and not the surrender monkeys you think they are when we try to form another party, they have only tolerated us to get elected.

Now that they know they can no longer use us, they will turn us as quickly as Kelly Loeffler did with Trump ...

These narcisstic Rats are going to stir up even more unrest, protests, etc. among Trump supporters—heh heh heh. They are mistaken to think we 75 plus million are afraid of them.

What a bunch of COWARDLY, disgusting drama queens, piling on to make themselves look they like they actually care about our country. They don’t fool anyone.

What a bunch of disgusting, self-serving hateful pieces of sh*t.

*** They want to head off any possibility of Trump running again in 4 years. They also want to humiliate him. They will probably get most of the GOP to go along with it. ***

Don’t worry. They haven’t forgotten about us. 20,000 page domestic terrorism bill coming down the pike?

Those warnings are so you won’t read it. First time I have seen them. Ministry of Truth crap.

Every Republican should boycott anything having to do with the House of Representatives until the new congress takes over. Let history show the sheer hatred and partisanship of these traitors.

Actually they want to prevent Americans from ever voting for anyone they haven't chosen to run .....clearly their vicious and unending slaughter to Trump and his family is to deter anyone who wants to interfere in their Globalist Cabal agenda and plans...and just how nasty and determined they will be to completely destroy them.

American Freedom Party should be the new party going forward.

Establish the new party in EVERY COUNTY of the United States!

Let’s start now, with or without Trump!

I don’t think Trump will be removed before the 20th.

I do think they will go after Trump AFTER he leaves office, thru criminal prosecutions in DC and NY. This will be clear overreach, and will be perceived as such. In any prosecution resulting from the demonstrations, the Antifa connection will come out.

Trump’s problem is that any prosecution in DC will have a jury that is ALL democrat. He will not get a fair trial. Ditto for NY.

Prosecuting the opposition when there is a change in governments is something worthy of a banana republic.

Thought Raskin would still be in mourning because his kid just died. Forget any grace I gave the slug.
