WATCH LIVE: Public Impeachment Hearings (Yovanovich)

I just did, but here it is again.

Thus, Ejusdem generis means that the phrase "or other highcrimes or Misdemeanors" should be limited to offenses of the same genusas "Bribery, Treason ...." Clearly, these are the offenses of a person-I1-who entrusted with governmental office, violates this trust. These arewhat we meant by "political offenses." "They are Constitutional wrongsthat subvert the structure of government or undermine the integrity ofoffice and even the Constitution itself.

 

Excellent... can you get that phrase to Chairman Schiff?? I'm sure he can find a use for it...

 

Sure, I'll Tweet it to him.

I'll give him all the rope he needs to embarrass himself further and drag this out.

 

...did you think a law article from 1975 is dispositive on this issue?

It is not.

 

Yeah the law isn't known for precidence or anything, counselor.

You're making me laugh my ass off. I appreciate that.

 

Then quote the precedent. A Law article which cites to a latin saying for how a legal phrase in the US Constitution should be interpreted is not precedent.

 

Where's the Supreme Court ruling that defines High Crimes and Misdemeanors? You know, "precedent."

 

You think Ejusdem generis was used once in 1975 lmfao

 

Oh look!

So you KNOW that Congress doesn't decide what "high crimes and misdemeanors are"!

My tutelage is paying off already!

Here you go, court precedence on ejusdem generis

I called it a legal concept, so I don't get how you reached the conclusion that I only think it was used once in 1975.

Now, quote the precedent that defines "high crimes and misdemeanors." A Law article which cites to a legal concept for how a legal phrase in the US Constitution should be interpreted is not precedent.

 

...did you think the Supreme Court of India controls?

What the ****?

 

Wow, I think Schiff just defined Hunter Biden

 

*******n son.

 

The website that you used is legalblog.in

As a bit of tutlage provided free of charge, the ".in" is a reference to INDIA. The Country of INDIA.

 

Screw that... charge him... hourly billing rates...

 

LOL, she still works for government and got a sweet appointment.

 

Dems are horrified, horrified I tell you, that Presidents have plenary power to appoint ambassadors.

 

I already did.

Ejusdem generis tells you exactly what "Bribery, Treason, High Crimes and Misdemeanors" means.

Thanks.

Now you understand the concept is not centralized to US law, but is worldwide.

Thanks for pointing that out to us hahahaha

I love it when a plan goes down the way I hope.

 

That's the new argument?? They took away her Mazerati and gave her a used Accord??

 

She said that is what she wanted. You calling her a liar?

 

Hey everyone, vman12 totally and intentionally quoted a law blog from India as precedent for the definition of High Crimes and Misdemeanors.

*wink*

 

SMFH...

 

Yet Shuffle did the same thing as usual rules it seems apply only to Republicans.

 

No cut in pay either. Must be awful.

 

Says the guy who thinks Congress can impeach for jaywalking or anything else they'd like.

Go ahead and tell us how the universal application and understanding of Ejusdem generis, as applied by the US and countries other than the US, includes your jaywalking charge.

You're welcome to get as much mileage out of the examples from the Indian supreme court as you'd like to reinforce my point though.
