I would like to see gallows built in Lafayette park.
Just sayin...
5.56mm
Nunes is only guy doing anything everyone else standing around with their mouth open swallowing flies.
How about a few guillotines for added “entertainment”?
House needs simple majority to impeach. 2/3 in the Senate to convict. And limited debate in the House. Constitutional. But How do the Repubs get 69 seats in the Senate to convict. Because McCain won’t. Sure at least one more.
This is reminiscent of the Andrew Johnson impeachment trial. Jackson, like Trump, wanted to fire somebody, in Johnson’s case, the Secretary of War. The Republicans had a veto-proof majority in both the House and Senate, and passed a law saying the President couldn’t fire certain high-ranking officials. Johnson fired him anyway. The impeachment vote was easy. Andrew Johnson survived the Senate trial by one vote (as a Democrat, all Democrats voted against conviction).
From the state of Kansas, Senator Lane (R) was the only Republican who supported Johnson’s vetoes. He face such public and private pressures, he was reported to have committed suicide in 1866. His replacement was Edmund Ross, who led the fight against Senator Lane in Kansas.
The Republicans controlled the Senate 42-12. They only needed 36 to convict. (Southern states waiting for readmittance were denied, as conviction was the number one priority for the Republican Party). Six Republicans declared early for acquittal, as the Constitution clearly allows the President to fire any person holding a position that requires a Senate vote to confirm. Edmund Ross, while opposing virtually all of Johnson’s policies, cast the 19th and deciding vote for acquittal.
1888, Congress repealed the law. Later the Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional.
Pity we don’t have 7 Democrats in the Senate who vote for the Constitution and against political gain.
And Rosenstein allowed access to Nunes and Gowdy today!!
Devin Nunes for Speaker!!!!
Yes!!!!
Let’s see what happens now. Supposedly the State Department has something to do with it...
Since we tried the ballot box and then now they are trying to undo the ballot box I’m with you.
They could impeach them and even if the Senate refused to remove, Trump could use that as the excuse to fire Rosenstein and Wray and take out Mueller at the same time. Trump could cite Congress’s lack of confidence in Rosenstein. The congress would dare not try to impeach Trump due to their own efforts to impeach Wray and Rosenstein!
One thing for sure, while WE don’t know what the start of the Mulehead probe was, NUNES does now.
It’s either the Steele/Deep Stroke/MI5 dossier, or it’s the Aussie/Downer/Papdickless connection.
If the former, it’s highly likely that RR is compromised badly, i.e., criminally.
Either way, we have a major ally on the hook for trying to undo an American election. This is definitely not good, and, in part, explains why DOJ has been so reluctant to release this info.
The enemy is brazenly lawless, and relies on manufactured consent through the Partisan Media Shills. The only thing that will stop this is bloodshed.
