Otherwise, I'd be more inclined to believe that the DNI IG knows more about the law than some random message board user


You might have a point if you were dealing with a neutral IG.

Guess what?

Pelosi's followers:

We fight for the people! For equality! For the little man! For those who want peace and fairness! We fight against the rich and the elite! We fight against the power hungry and the man!

Who is your leader?

A 79 year old woman, who's family is politicians, and who has been in congress for 32 years, and had been in politics since the age of 20 before that, who has never had a real job.

Despite that, she has 3 homes, a Vinyard, 2 commercial properties, a football team, and an estimated net worth of over 100 million dollars.

Anyone wanna try to explain that one?

since it was part of Nixon's articles of impeachment, it is an impeachable offense.


Nixon wasn’t impeached , so scrubbing behind your ears could have been included.

like I said the Judiciary Committee already voted and passed the resolution to begin impeachment proceedings.
No, it didn't. It voted to establish the parameters of an impeachment inquiry IF AN IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY IS APPROVED.

Pelosi even said what the judiciary committee did was NOT the beginning of an impeachment inquiry.

At her weekly news conference Thursday, Pelosi once again declined to say the committee was conducting an impeachment investigation

Awful bold for the Dems to move forward with this not knowing what is in the complaint, the phone call transcript, etc. Hope it blows up spectacularly in their face.



Which is why I suspect she will be in favor of impeachment only if Trump keeps blocking the whistle blower complaint past Thurs.

Then, no matter what, the rationale will be that the Trump admin was breaking the whistle blower protection act.

I just said why. First, it wasn't intelligence related, so its out of the committees' jurisdiction. Second, no laws were broken (even if you believe everything the media says. If they were, Joe would already be in prison. Third, the whistleblower DID NOT HEAR THE CALL. We have no idea how strong the provenance of this complaint is. I'd also venture a guess that the Ukrainian government might take issue with releasing the information, which would be yet another foreign policy headache completely manufactured by bloodthirsty democrats.

Its not hard.

Impeachment talk wouldn't be that bad...if Democrats have been mellow and then went balls to the wall on the impeachment talk, on this issue.

That's not the case though. Democrats have been demanding that trump be impeached for every little thing. Trump could fart in an elevator, and we'd see a congressman and most msm 30 minutes later claiming that trump should be impeached for it.

No one cares anymore except the most authoritarian leftists.

On July 27, 29, and 30, 1974, the Committee approved three articles of impeachment against Nixon, for obstruction of justice, abuse of power, and contempt of Congress, and reported those articles to the House of Representatives.

He resigned before the full house could vote.

So in your opinion anyone who goes to court or is even considered in the DAs office for charges is already guilty?

Didn't the house already vote once and they didn't have the votes? Doubt they have them now. But yes, vote, get it over with so we can move on.


Purple Democrats in the House are starting to sweat.

The DNI IG stated otherwise.

Second, no laws were broken

This is not a prerequisite for a whistleblower complaint.

The DNI IG knows how strong the provenance of the complaint is and deemed it Urgent and Credible. Anything else?

These are the democrats that are coming forward today in favor of impeachment inquiry, so your statement makes no sense.

So I’m correct. You didn’t have to confirm that by the way. I had no doubt.

that's like saying someone who pleaded guilty wasn't convicted.
