Pelosi Impeachment Inquiry

Discussion in 'Politics' started by Big AAPL, Sep 24, 2019.

  1. The Senate should follow the impeachment clause of the constitution if we get that far. The rules of procedure and evidence and rights to cross-examination cannot be limited by any statute. Laws may be established to outline the rules of procedure and to bring orderliness to the proceeding but not to diminish the rights of the Senate to conduct an impeachment trial.

    Question to conservatives, if it comes out that beyond a reasonable doubt there was a quid pro quo, would you then support impeachment?

    If your looking for spies might I suggest you start with Rudy Giuliani’s associates and leave duty bound American whistleblowers alone.

    I’m done with this as it is becoming circular and you don’t have anything of substance to back up your wants and assertions.

  4. I also do not need to engage in a discussion of the legality and appropriateness of outing the whistlespy because - this is DC afterall- and he is soon to be outed anyway.

    Then we will take it from there.

    Lots of things to be examined once he is outed. ENJOY!!

    You can post a long dissertation covering the reasons why he should not have been outed and we will all read it. Won't we class?

    gig.

    You think Trump is going to assassinate this person?

    Please. I am fully in line with a total investigation and then impeaching Trump if guilty of wrong doing. But you can't just rely on anonymous testimony with no proof or cross examination.

    If the whistle blower had hard evidence, like "the murder weapon can be found here" and then prosecutors go and find the murder weapon, sure, the person can remain anonymous. That's the whole idea behind programs like "crime stoppers". But if the whistle blower is using testimony like "Trump said x, y or z" then the whistle blower has to make an appearance and offer testimony so that the witness can be determined to be credible through cross examination!

    It's already a known fact that both whistlewhores were registered Dems and both worked for Biden.
