Discussion: GOP Homeland Security Chairman: Hillary Clinton Committed 'Treason'

Chuck, I’m not saying a dem male wouldn’t be attacked. I’m saying he wouldn’t be attacked on the basis of how well he followed orders. Kerry was attacked for (purportedly) overstating his bravery, Obama was attacked for (purportedly) being a foreign agent on a mission to ruin motherhood and apple pie, and maybe also baseball. Bill Clinton is attacked as (purportedly) being a sexual predator.

Note in particular that although the actual basis for Bill Clinton’s impeachment in the House was lying to Congress, this isn’t a basis of attack. Yet with Hillary, a lot is made of her (purportedly) having done so. Men are not attacked for failing to be good secretaries who didn’t follow orders. Male dems are attacked differently.

And here we have yet another piece of evidence that Republicans cannot govern. They only know obstruction and have no plans on changing anytime soon. I loathe them and all they stand for but urge them to begin impeachment proceedings. Ask Neuter how that worked for him.

You know, it would be really, really, nice if these asshats would read the document they have sworn to uphold and defend against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

the House of Representatives would engage in an impeachment trial

No, asswipe, the House would not have an impeachment trial. The House might try to prepare a Bill of Impeachment, but if you do you are going to have to prosecute the trial before the Senate.

Oh, and you’ll need 67 votes to convict. Think you can round them up? I don’t – not on the basis of your witch hunts.

Seditious conspiracy: 18 USC 2384.

This is in my opinion quite frankly it’s treason."

Unnhhhhh, Mr Chaiman…no. According to the Constitutional definition of treason (Please see Article 3 section 3) treason is levying war on the United States or giving aid and comfort to enemies which Hillary has not done. That if Russians hacked their way into her server does not qualify in her “giving aid and comfort”. If, Sir, your email gets hacked by some Iranians and you had possession of classified stuff are you being treasonous? I would doubt it.
Try again doofus.

Especially not after the upcoming election in which democrats are going to potentially pick up enough seats to take the majority.
Yeah it would be nice of members of Congress did understand the founding document.But sadly willful stupidity isn’t a bug for them, it’s a coveted feature to be bragged about.

I realize my long history of Art. 3, Sec. 3 pedantry would lead most people to expect me to be posting about that, the truth is that I really can’t get past that picture. I mean, is that an incompetent photoshopping of a head onto a body that too small for it, or does he have an Uncanny Valley problem in real life?

Uh pretty sure Congressmen cannot commit a Hatch Act violation given that they, uh, actually run for elections.

Now whomever is leaking and or fabrication information from inside the FBI is clearly in violation of lots of things.

Nothing close to treason will ever be proven against Clinton. These republicans are just playing whack-a-mole, trying to placate their religious, fact-free living constituents, so they won’t lose their jobs come next Tuesday.

There is no proof she was hacked.
Nothing on her server compromised National Security
No harm came to any American or American interest as a result of information on her server.
Cong Shit for brains has zero proof any of things I listed is untrue.

Now, as for who is protecting Homeland Security.
The State Department has been hacked.
The White House has been hacked.
The OPM was hacked and 20 millions federal workers personnel files were stolen.
If you saw pictures of the new Chinese Stealth fighter taking its maiden flight then you know China has been hacking our most secret weapons plans and copying them.
So what the flying fcuk has this guy been doing to protect the security of the Homeland?

It is being said that Mike’s computer contains thousands of photos that, when revealed, will cause him to resign immediately and flee the country.

Do you mean I can’t tell you all what is being said about Mike around the water cooler? I understand it would result in a gallows being erected outside his office if I tell tell you all about it. People are saying we shouldn’t keep this secret.

“It would go to the Senate, and impeachment proceedings and removal would take place…”

They’re always going on about “treason,” but never bother to name the enemy with which she was allegedly conspiring. Republicans seem to believe that treason can exist in a vacuum.

No, she didn’t. If anyone committed treason, it was Trump, by giving aid and comfort to the enemy. (No, he didn’t either.) Go back and read the Constitution.

(That photo looks like some guy stuck his head through a hole in a photo of somebody in a suit.)
