Pelosi To Hold Meeting May 22 to Address Trump Impeachment Potential

[Claudette]

Democrats' Impeachment Divide Tests Pelosi

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will convene a meeting Wednesday morning to hear from Democrats on whether to move forward with impeachment proceedings against President Trump.

Pelosi, a public skeptic of impeachment, is confronting a rising tide of support for it among rank-and-file House Democrats and members of her own leadership team. Democrats are outraged by the Trump administration's ongoing effort to stymie congressional oversight into the president, his administration, and the findings in special counsel Robert Mueller's report.

'We’re at an inflection point': More Dems pressure Pelosi on impeachment

Speaker Nancy Pelosi doesn’t want to impeach President Donald Trump, but a growing number of her members are trying to drag her there.

Despite repeated pronouncements from the California Democrat that she doesn’t want to try to remove Trump from office — including taking a hard line in a tense leadership meeting Monday night — Pelosi faces increasing calls from her rank and file to trigger an impeachment inquiry.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AG Barr has placed his 'spin' on SC Mueller's report.

Americans are finally determining that Trump is being protected by Barr & the GOP Congress that have no use for The US Constitution.

Trump continues to refuse to allow the testimony before Congress of McGahn & others.

It is time for the Democrats to bitch slap Trump with impeachment.

Don't wait any longer; just get 'er done.

Is this the same Pelousy who swore impeaching Trump was off the table??

Smells like desperation to me. She knows Trump will win in 2020 and the Dems will probably lose the House.

What a maroon.

[Jitss617]

LMAO I'd like to know just what they will try to impeach him for??

No Russian collusion. No obstruction. Maybe playing golf???

A pattern of attempts/multiple attempts to obstruct the SC investigation but I wouldn't expect you to understand that.

Kinda hard to obstruct something that didn't happen.

Of course no one expects your stupid ass to understand.

Carry on dumbass.

The SC investigation did not happen?

And you call others dumb ass?

LOFL

The investigation most certainly did happen.
The various attempts by Trump to obstruct the SC Mueller investigation are documented within Volume II, pages 227 - 368 of the PDF. https://www.justice.gov/storage/report.pdf

Get off your fat lazy ass & do some reading. Oh, I forgot; you can't read.

Obstruct what ? A crime he didn’t commit?? Lol

You really are too stupid to get it.

Obstruction of the investigation

Are you saying trump couldn’t have fired mueller and replaced him??

 

[Crepitus]

You made the claim kid. Show Me the duty to the Constitution that the Congress has regarding this issue.

Ok kid, what's the core purpose of the Constitution?

You will answer My question, not ask Me questions.

All right children, pay attention please.

Since none of you seem to know, the core purpose of the Constitution is to prevent tyranny. That's why the power of government is split into three separate but equal branches.

Now think about what is happening.

A blanket refusal to respond to any congressional subpoenas. tRump is saying the Congress has no right of oversight on the executive.

Spending money on a project that congress pointedly refused funding for, taking over the power of the purse.

Directing the attorney general, the Justice Department, the FBI, and the secretary of the Treasury to act in his own personal interest rather than in the interests of the American people.

Add in the blatant obstruction of Justice, dozens of clandestine meeting with hostile foreign governments, unilaterally destroying trade, inciting violence, inviting people to break the law, and encouraging racism I think we've got tyranny not just on our doorstep, but living in our house.

Lesson over. Go think about what you've learned today.

Kid you really are an idiot.
NOW, post supporting dox for every accusation. God you're an idiot.

Idiot?

You obviously don't know SHIT about this nation.

You should move to fucking Russia, you fucking traitor.

All they know is what tRump and Hannity tell them.

So, you have it wrong. Big surprise there.

The core purpose of the Constitution is to limit the power of government and place it in the hands of the governed. THat is what is meant by, "The Consent of the Governed".

The Constitution sets out specific roles for each branch of government, given EACH an EQUAL but separate set of responsibilities. The legislative writes the laws and controls what monies are allocated to the budget, but does not address specific spending unless explicitly stated.

Trump has NOT used any funds that have been explicitly set to a specific budgetary item.

The Constitution also sets mechanisms in each branch as tools to keep the other in check. For the Legislative, those tools are oversight of the Executive in its conduct as the law enforcement branch of government. That oversight is broad but limited to the conduct of the Executive WHILE IN OFFICE. The legislative has no authority over private citizens prior to or following a term as the Executive.

The Executive act as a check against the abuse of the legislature by holding the primary tools of legal investigation, criminal referral, and the power of the Veto.

The responsibilities of the executive ENTITLE the office to advisors and council free from the coercion of the other branches of government and the power to exercise their full executive power.

So, when the two are in dispute, the Judiciary acts as a check against them both when disputes of authority arise.

Guess where we are right now?

Nadler has exceeded his authority. He has not shown valid and legal cause to violate the privacy of a citizen based upon the scope of his subpoena.

The SCOTUS will handle this going forward, but just so you understand. There are THREE co-equal branches of government, and the ultimate power in the Constitution resides with the people, not the government.

So, what you imply is that the representatives in Congress (government) that represent the voters don't mean shit.

You are one funny mother fucker.

As long as there is a nominally republican president in office he will refuse to understand the phrase "separate but equal".

As soon as a Democratic president is sworn in he will screech about executive overreach.

Trump supporters typically have no brain stem, no cerebral function, a few fries short of a Happy Meal, etc.

It must suck to be so fucking stupid but hey, as long as they like it ..........

 

[Hale]

Just curious. Is it Donald's love of all things Muslim that engenders your affections for him? Or do you just hate Mike Pence because he's so damn Christian?

This from someone so infatuated with the President that he imagines being a porn star rather than admitting he's a failure-to-launch 40 year old? Wow.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

Pelosi knows that impeachment proceedings would absolutely destroy the party in the next election. Unless it is a slam dunk where you already have the Senate on board before you start down that road, the public would gut you for trying. It doesn't matter which party does it. It is the nuclear weapon nobody wants to play with.

U & I both know the Senate would not vote for impeachment.

Doesn't matter; Congress has a duty

This 'duty' is a waste of time and resources.

So, you are saying the Constitutional responsibility of Congress to act as a check on the executive is a waste of time & resources.

So, what you are really saying is you hate The US Constitution.

I appreciate you letting US know you have such low regard for the ONLY document that actually means a damn thing in this nation.

You may as well move to Russia; maybe become a Putin puppet.

Which he didn't do. If he had Mueller would have said so in his report.

He didn't so you can fuck off mother fucker.

At the present time? Damn straight. The House may vote to impeach, but the Senate will not vote to convict and remove. So, you have more political theater that at the end of the day means absolutely nothing.

So, what you are really saying is you hate The US Constitution.

No, you are saying that. You are putting words in my mouth and also stinking up the place with hyperbole.

I appreciate you letting US know you have such low regard for the ONLY document that actually means a damn thing in this nation.

Ah, so you are having a conversation with yourself. Thanks for nothing.

Give up. Even the Dem leaders know this is totally inevitable.

Doesn't there have to be an actual crime committed and PROOF of said crime to impeach a President? "We don't like his Tweets" probably won't fly in court and with the American people.

IMO it doesn't matter if the Senate won't vote for it; Congress has the responsibility to impeach to send a clear message that executive abuse of power will be answered by the proper Constitutional mechanism.

Did you feel the same way when Obama was abusing his power with all his executive orders?
