Ill repute. My mother used to refer to whores as women of ill repute. That is genuinely the only context that I have ever heard the term used…

what’s preventing the congresspersons from broadly characterizing the complaint?

Things like: broader than phone call? More than Ukraine? Sources? Targets?

I agree with all of your points. However, I think that the ‘deplorables’ do not appreciate the fact that they have been ‘rode hard and put away wet’. As much as they like the ‘in our face’ traits Trump displays, they have been too unaware that he, Trump, has really fucked them in the ass deeper than Trump could fuck anyone one else in the ass.

"Congress get rid of a criminal secretary via its Congressional oversight powers and by using the Impeachment procedure (cf Article 2, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution), but only if they are found guilty of some sort of crime.

Impeachment is a two-step process. First the House of Representatives impeaches the official and only after that does the Senate try him. If found guilty by the Senate the official is immediately removed from his duties."

So, how did they get this? I thought it was blocked and the WB was coming to the committee tomorrow. Why no explanation here?

Somebody posted the details from the 25th Amendment in another thread earlier today - basically, President nominates, but it take a majority of both Houses of Congress

“Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.”

Teeheeheeheee…

My guess is that it will be leaked – or at least the broad strokes form of it – by midnight tonight. If not, by 8 am tomorrow the latest.
