FNC’s Wallace Praises Democrats’ ‘Very Strong’ Argument for Impeaching Trump
Breitbart ^ | 9 Feb 2021 | PAM KEY

Posted on 02/09/2021 5:29:30 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Tuesday during Fox News Channels’ impeachment trial coverage, anchor Chris Wallace praised Democratic House impeachment managers’ opening argument for former President Donald Trump’s impeachment.

“I thought it was a very powerful opening,” Wallace said. “It had a lot of substance to it. It had a lot of technological slickness to it. The video of the events of January 6. The use of graphics to make the point about what’s in the Constitution. The historical precedent. I thought what was particularly in a legal, as opposed to the emotional side, in a very strict legal argument. I thought Joe Neguse, the congressman from Colorado, made a particularly strong argument. What he did, he took a conservative legal philosophy, originalism, textualism, read the Constitution exactly as it was written, and used that against the president.”

He continued, “I thought his close was very strong. ‘What happened on January 6,’ he said, ‘is the framers’ worst nightmare come to life,’ and that a president can’t enflame insurrection and run away. You are going to hear this over and over again — ‘January exception.’ The idea that a president commit crimes, allegedly, and then leave office, and somehow he’s thereby off the hook.”

“I will say one last thing as someone who’s covered a lot of trials. When you hear one side’s argument it seems like that’s overwhelming — and how could there be any argument on the other side?...

We are only here due to the GOP Weakness during the first Impeachment.

The GOP wouldn’t issue a Subpoena for any of the Biden family businesses, and they aren’t going to Impeach a Dem.

Has he ever not found the Democrat side appealing? He practically French kissed Biden during the debate.

Six Republican Senators Align With Democrats Claiming Impeachment of Former President is Constitutional, It Ain’t

Posted on  by Sundance

Highlighting the insufferable alignment of the two wings of the UniParty bird, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell allowed, permitted, and grinned as six GOP senators concurred with leftist democrats that impeachment of a former President is constitutional… Pro Tip: it ain’t.

Republican Senators:

aligned with the usurpation:

To see evidence of the constitutional quagmire one only has to look at Chief Justice John Roberts’ refusal to participate in the impeachment trial.  Despite his own ideological progressiveness, even Roberts couldn’t bring himself to compromise the baseline of the Judicial Branch role in determining constitutional issues around impeachment.

The entire system in DC is operating outside the constitutional framework… FUBAR.

Excellent!

In the 2004 Movie, The Village, they said:

“Those We Don’t Speak of”

And the denial of Man’s cities in the Planet Of the Apes.

Above all, they must protect their secret.
