In a major step in the impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump, the House Intelligence Committee officially voted to approve its impeachment probe report and pass it over to the House Judiciary Committee.
Along party lines, huh? Even though we have a clear case of Abuse of Power? Word of advice to the media. Please spare me your bleatings about how chagrined and distraught Republicans are in private. That just won’t do. The stakes are too high. It’s time to put up or shut up with no backsies allowed on their deathbed, ala Lee Atwater.
Schiff has issued the “what goes around, comes around” warning to the GOP with respect to the next Democratic administration. Pretty sure that will have no immediate effect on the Republicans, and Fox will hyperventilate about the Democrats threatening to undermine our constitutional republic.
The crucial vote formally kicked the impeachment process over to the Judiciary committee, which is scheduled to hold its first hearing on Wednesday at 10 AM EST. After the committee completes its hearings, it will draw up articles of impeachment.
Not that there’s any doubt among thinking people but this is still considered a “may” not a “will”.
Not to pad your ego, but things like clarity of thought and a modicum of intellect in your TPM persona. Or maybe you’re just very, very good at playing a dumb Republican congressman (redundancy noted).
But where there’s a “will” there’s a way. My freshman Rep is on the Judiciary. Pretty sure he’s been looking forward to this.
I see Johnathan Turley will be representing the GOP view of impeachment law.He still can’t get over President Obama( Like Trump I might add) and Adam Schiff beating Turley like a drum here.Which Congressman Schiff prepared to make the Dems case on impeachment of Trump
