Gabbard rips Pelosi for delay of impeachment articles

That’s a stretch. An impeachment is not a criminal charge. The “speedy trial” argument doesn’t hold water. The rules for impeachment aren't even spelled out in the constitution. They never planned on Moscow Mitch waiting for Putin’s next advice.

 

NO there ISN'T...

Where in The Constitution does it say anything about a SoL for Impeachment?

Once again you are making stuff up.

Cite me the EXACT Constitutional Provision that states that Articles of Impeachment are subject to a Statute of Limitations.

You can't. Because it is NOT there.

 

No kidding.

Things are being made up out of whole cloth.

 

Well, did we expect anything different ? Making up s.h.i.t is a favorite past time for Mitch and Hannity. Fox has so many people giving Trump and Moscow Mitch advice, they’re thinking of making the FCC a cabinet position. Then, pbs will be the only thing “not” state TV.

 

Totally.

But, what gets me is how all of these absurdly misguided "narratives" even get brought up.

Everyone KNOWS that there is no such thing as a Statute of Limitations on Impeachment Articles.

Civics 101.

So, why would somebody push such a FAKE narrative?

Btw--Tulsi's Vote was meaningless and she is doing (or saying) anything to get her name in the news.

 

Impeachment is a bicameral procedure, and Trump still has his rights-including to a speedy trial.

Im just here to watch dems fail.

 

NO, he doesn't.

Where in the Constitution does it say that (regarding Impeachment)?

 

He has the same rights as all Americans-including a right to a speedy trial.

 

Gabbard is right. It is not the SOTH job to tell the Senate how to conduct their trial.

House has sole power of impeachment

Senate has sole power to try all impeachments

(paraphrased)

 

I don't know Tulsi Gabbard's politics and I expect they don't quite align with mine, but I do think that this woman is honest and a truly stand up for what is right human being! At least in the encounters for which the media will even report about her, that is how she comes across. Why are the Dems so afraid of her? Is it because she is not a venomous snake like them?

 

No. There would have to be a do-over. All bills including impeachment die with legislative session.

 

Technically, no. Trump, however, doesn't lose his rights because he's the President. He can file a Writ of Mandamus* forcing nanzi's hand, or barring that, have the courts dismiss the articles as a unconstitutional Bill of Attainder as the legislature is barred from impugning his character without allowing redress - the Senate trial. Also, there was a litany of broken House Rules during the star chamber proceedings that were read into the record. Those errors could be grounds for a dismissal. The House is compelled to follow their own rules.The Turtle may also have maneuvering room to dismiss the articles without them being passed to the Senate.

Yes, the courts DO have a say in disagreements between Trump (Executive branch), and Congress. If anyone doesn't believe that just read up on Alcee Hastings' impeachment, and why he's a ranking member of the criminal cabal today.


*A (writ of) mandamus is an order from a court to an inferior government official ordering the government official to properly fulfill their official duties or correct an abuse of discretion.

 

In Democratic fantasy land.....

Even if the democrats win the senate and pickup a dozen seats for a total of 60 votes and control the impeachment process in the senate, they would still need 7 republicans to vote to impeach.

Not even happening in fantasy land.

 

See post #61.

 

They don't even believe that about Trump, just another lie they peddle, right out of the Alinsky playbook.

He's back on the plus side.

With this much of the Black vote siphoned off, don't be surprised if the Republicans actually re-take the House but add a few Senate seats as well.

 

What's Nancy waiting for? Clinton's impeachment went to the Senate the same day. What is Nancy waiting for? I'm absolutely certain that the Minority Democrats in the Senate will be treated with the same courtesy and respect the Republicans were in the House.

 

Trump would remain the 3rd president in US history to be impeached, even if the senate never conducts a trial. The impeachment doesn't go away, ever. The only thing left is if the senate will hold a trial to remove him, or not. That has no bearing on his impeachment.

 

The courts have no jurisdiction in an impeachment. There is nothing that can be done. Trump is impeached. The house has the SOLE authority to impeach. The only remaining question is if it will be sent to the senate for trial, and if he is removed from office or not. None of that has any bearing on his impeachment.

 

Lol, you know what’s really fantasy land ?
. If the Dems picked up enough seats to have a total of 60 votes, Trump will have lost the election. Geezus, millions of Democrats would have to vote for Trump otherwise.. That’s not happening. Traitor Trump has sealed his fate when he let Putin be his fantasy date.

 

“Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees a criminal defendant the right to a speedy trial by an "impartial jury.”

Impeachment is not a criminal trial. Exactly where in the constitution are all the rules for a presidential impeachment.

 

That impeachment is really killin' 'em.

 

Exactly. Her campaign is a sinking ship looking for any floatation what so ever. Her johnnny one note regime change argument may make sense to many , but it sure didn’t catch for enough to satisfy the electorate. She’s too one dimensional. .

 

Tulsi is way too rational for leftist consumption.

 

What if she holds up impeachment until after the election and the Republicans take the house can they do a revote on impeachment and just stop it there.
