21 U.S. State Attorneys General Submit Legal Brief – Urging Senate to Reject Articles of Impeachment…

Posted on January 22, 2020 by sundance

EXCERPT:

It is not a process argument, but rather a matter of constitutional preservation.

Twenty-one U.S. Attorneys’ General submit a brief to the Senate (full pdf below) in support of complete rejection for the House articles of impeachment.

…”If not expressly repudiated by the Senate, the theories animating both Articles will set a precedent that is entirely contrary to the Framers’ design and ruinous to the most important governmental structure protections contained in our Constitution: the separation of powers”…

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

Read this,

Attorneys General Submit Legal Brief in Support of Rejecting Impeachment Articles

Excerpt:

As Attorneys General of 21 States whose citizens and Electoral College delegates voted in the 2016 presidential election, we have a special duty to defend the integrity of the votes cast by those citizens and electors during that election. However, our interests go well beyond that particular election. This impeachment proceeding threatens
all
future elections and establishes a dangerous historical precedent. That new precedent will erode the separation of powers shared by the executive and legislative branches by subjugating future Presidents to the whims of the majority opposition party in the House of Representatives. Thus, our duty to current and future generations commands us to urge the Senate to not only reject the two articles of impeachment contained in H. Res. 755—“abuse of power” and “obstruction of Congress”—as lacking in any plausible or reasonable evidentiary basis, but also as being Fundamentally flawed as a matter of constitutional law.

If not expressly repudiated by the Senate, the theories animating both Articles will set a precedent that is entirely contrary to the Framers’ design and ruinous to the most important governmental structure protections contained in our Constitution: the separation of powers. As the House Judiciary Committee Democrats put it during the 1998 impeachment of President Clinton, “Impeachment is like a wall around the fort of the separation of powers. The crack we put in the wall today becomes the fissure tomorrow, which ultimately destroys the wall entirely.” We agree.

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

You have to be truly stupid to still think the Lefticrats have a case, they have NOTHING but nebulous charges. They are going to lose big, and they deserve derision for being freaking stupid to be pursuing this attack on the Separation powers idea..

I don't care what party they are in, I look to the their legal argument to see if they have a case for their objection.

You talk like a partisan follower, I talk about the truth, that is what I care about, they make a good argument for ending this brazen attack on executive privilege.

Here is another reason why these 21 Attorney Generals have a good case.

Jerry Nadler's fatal mistake on impeachment

January 22, 2020


By John Leonard

EXCERPT:

Congressman (and impeachment manager) Jerry Nadler made a fatal mistake by running his mouth only two days before President Trump's absurd trial was scheduled to begin. He just couldn't keep quiet for two more days. Now the entire country can be very confident that this impeachment trial is nothing but a sham and a political hatchet job.

How so? While arguing against calling Hunter Biden as a witness by the president's defense team during a Sunday appearance on Face the Nation, Nadler foolishly said: "Did the president...as the evidence shows that he did, betray his country by conspiring with a foreign country to try to rig the election?"

See the problem? Congressman Nadler just claimed on national television in front of millions of viewers that evidence shows that President Trump committed the worst possible crime against our nation, which is treason. However, the two articles of impeachment are only about obstruction of Congress and abuse of power, neither of which is a criminal act as codified by law.

Nadler is an dithering fat idiot, yet many Lefticrats think he has a .... he he... ha ha... case against Trump. America getting stupider by the year., Jefferson is correct the only way to save the Republic is to water the tree....., from time to time, intelligent and rational thinking reappears.

Long live the Republic!
 
That's a response to the 20,000,000 DAs who said Trump obstructed justice in the Mueller Report.
Wonder why Schiff didn't use that?

No person is "cool" with the democrat's abuse of power.

Talking about that, what have they accomplished for the American people? Orange Mad Bad is not much of a platform to run on. Especially if it involves inventing crimes like in some 3rd world banana republic. The Salem witch trials should have been the last.

He didn't obstruct anything, Mueller would have posted a prosecution charge if there really was obstruction, don't continue to be dumb on this.

Meanwhile Senator Feinstein walked out on Schiff' who was testifying at the time:

You really think Lefticrats have a case at all? if you do you are going to be disappointed since they never charged Trump with lawbreaking at all. :21:
 
It appears that Lefticrats here in the forum, are ignoring the obvious that the Lefticrats on their absurd Impeachment trial, are going down in flames.

I wonder what new delusion they will bring up in their never ending attempt to take down a lawfully elected President?
 
Here is a good presentation on why this Impeachment process is INVALID:

WH Counsel P. Philbin Explains Why House Subpoenas Were Invalid: The Power Was Never Voted On.



There was reason why Lefticrats bypassed the full house vote, which no leftists has understood why they did that, but I know why, they are grossly ignorant over the malicious intent of the SUBCOMMITTEE, to bypass due process of the accused.

I wonder if Lefticrats in the forum beginning to realize they are running on nothing?

I think they are FINALLY beginning to realize the Lefticrat party is in the Twilight Zone, look at the silence here in this thread.....
