It is impeachable for relatives of the vice president to make money working, so they should just be put on the government payroll. THAT is how you fight corruption.
Were there any sanity in this country, or justice in this world, all of Shitgibbon’s “defense team” would be disbarred for life. And, with any luck, exiled to, and placed in the stocks on, a quarter-acre-sized island that’s about to be submerged
Well, look at it this way: Joe would have to be elected to be impeached. And Joe is much better than Trump. So…
John Delaney drops out of 2020 presidential race
I’m going to miss his gaping, 5-watt face and penetrating intellect.
The WaPo this morning declared Cipillone a “star.”
No words.
He’ll be a libtard who’s totally p’wned.
Not just them. There are a lot of people, same morons who bought into Emailghazzi, who are Very Concerned and it’s affecting Biden’s numbers in Iowa right now.
Many, many lawyers are nothing more than whores.
I’m one who loves to razz the lawyers but I’m glad we have many of them here at TPM because they regularly explain so much about this impeachment.
Hey, hey, hey! Whores do honest work.
Presumably they mean he could have been impeached while he was till serving as VP. Under this logic, Trump is impeachable for any decision he has made which resulted in a “purely private pecuniary financial gain" for any of his children. Since there is ample evidence pointing to this being the case, the House is now obligated to pursue such an investigation.
Please define “honest.”
Joe Biden should be impeached under a legal theory laid out by Alan Dershowitz, President Trump’s legal team argued at the end of the questioning phase of the Senate impeachment trial on Thursday.
…
Ahem
I believe one must have been elected to an office and still occupying it AND have committed some horrible act in order to be impeached. trump fulfills that line of thought. Joe Biden, however has been out of office for 3 years at last count. Under the theory of Dersh et al I could be impeached. So could some random voter.
Philbin described it as “purely private pecuniary financial gain,” motive that, if driving an act undertaken by a President, “would be the problematic category.”
This is the second time trump defense has mentioned a personal financial gain would be impeachable (Dershowitz mentioned it in his answer to what is impeachable).
So are his attorneys letting us know what the next investigation of trump should be?
The GOP is so eager to not leave any lie untold!
Ummm…how the hell do you IMPEACH someone who is NOT IN ANY ELECTED OFFICE?
This just shows how fucking stupid the Trumpists think (and depend upon being) their base is.
They piss on your heads and tell you it’s raining, and you look up, smile, and scream MORE, MORE!
(just like Donnie DipShit loves)
You know how presidents have a first 100 days plan… Republican congress will have an impeach Biden within the first 100 days. Fortunately, they are not going to take the house.
A Star of Stupidity.
Well, remember, in 2016 that members of the Republican Congress had ALREADY DRAWN UP ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT against Hillary and promised to IMPEACH HER on the 1st day of her Presidency.
They are going back to the same playbook in 2020, i.e. Voting Suppression, endless Dirty Tricks, massive illegal foreign campaign donations, Huge Russian/Saudi/Israeli-controlled Digital Influence ad campaigns (Facebook/Instagram/etc.) and an even MORE feckless and lazy Corporate MSM eager to help defeat whomever the Democratic Candidate is as long as the Republican Campaign Ad Money keeps rolling into their coffers and they get a promise of MORE TAX CUTS in the future.
