Absolute rubbish. CNN and MSNBC regularly have Republican / Conservatives. Kayleigh McEnany for example used to be on CNN all the time until she switched jobs. MSNBC employs Nicole Wallace and Joe Scarborough. I see people like Brett Stephens and Michael Steele on regularly. There are lots of others that have come and gone.
So then trump just needs to take the stand and not perjurer himself and he should be all set.
It wasnt obstruction of justice that was charged, but obstruction of congress, which is a joke considering that there are 3 co equal branches of govt, each with oversightvof thevother. The proper way to handle a disagreement, like whether a house issued subpoena is valid, is to allow the supreme court to decide. Charging someone with "obstruction of congress" because they want the court to rule on it, is denying the 3rd branch to rule. There is no such thing as obstruction of congress.
This impeachment will be void if not sending into the senate then.
Then? When is 'then'?
The Bill doesn't become voided if it isn't delivered. It has no expiration date, so there is no time limit, but the bill does address only one person.
If Trump is no longer President when the Bill is delivered, then it would be voided, because it would no longer apply to Trump's position. But for as long as he is President, the Bill can be held, and can be sent at any time to the Senate.
Legally.
McConnell wants to get it done and finished lickety-split, ASAP. Pelosi wants to slow it down to a crawl. Both of their reasons are obvious enough. So McConnell can complain, but there's nothing he can do. And Pelosi can hold it up, so she can ignore McConnell's complaints.
Its the way they have both played their Game of Foxes for years.
Who cares what Alan Dershowitz says?
I didn't hear him objecting to Trump stopping witnesses from testifying, refusing to act on legal subpoenas, refusing to provide requested documents, obstructing Congress or abusing his power.
HaHA! he asserted his Executive Privilege as EVERY President has done throughout history! The House could have went to the Judiciary to override...but they didn't! That is on them!
An impeachment is like an indictment. Have you ever heard of a sealed indictment— Trump’s people are pretty familiar with them. They can sit quietly on a shelf for a long time before they are pursued in court. Pelosi can let the impeachment sit, like McConnell let Merrick Garland’s nomination sit for 290+ days.
Apologies if this has already been pointed out, I haven't read the whole thread, but if Nancy continues with this silly strategy, the Dems will no longer be able to say that Trump was impeached. Well according to Dem star "witness" Noah Feldman anyway.
Given that was the whole purpose of this sham, Nancy has managed to get herself into a no win situation.
Since when do Democrats worry about pooping on the Constitution?
They take pleasure in doing so.
