In impeachment news:

NY Rag: Can't legally stop Trump, let's impeach him anyway!

Not going to quote that ***. Even Rooks have standards here.

It seems like the media has no clue how impeachment works. I would inform them that mere outrage cannot remove a president in office, but it would break their little (black) hearts.

Unchecked Intelligence Sharing: A Calamity Of Epic Proportions

Wait, since when does a leaker provide the materials s/he is leaking to their family members before s/he leaks it?

<Leaker> Hi Mom, I'm about to do something immoral and possibly illegal. I want you to look at it first so you can be an accessory to the crime, [badjoke]and not just any accessory, a pearl necklace[/badjoke].

Bombshell: Initial Thoughts on the Washington Post’s Game-Changing Story


Quote:
Violating the oath of office does not require violating a criminal statute. If the President decided to write the nuclear codes on a sticky note on his desk and then took a photo of it and tweeted it, he would not technically have violated any criminal law–just as he hasn’t here. He has the constitutional authority to dictate that the safeguarding of nuclear materials shall be done through sticky notes in plain sight and tweeted, even the authority to declassify the codes outright. Yet, we would all understand this degree of negligence to be a gross violation of his oath of office.

Congress has alleged oath violations—albeit violations tied to criminal allegations or breaches of statutory obligations—all three times it has passed or considered seriously articles of impeachment against presidents: against Andrew Johnson (“unmindful of the high duties of his oath of office”), Richard Nixon (“contrary to his oath”), and Bill Clinton (“in violation of his constitutional oath”). Further, two of the three articles of impeachment against Nixon alleged no direct violation of the law. Instead, they concerned Nixon’s abuse of his power as President, which, like the President putting the nuclear codes on Twitter, is an offense that can only be committed by the President and has thus never been explicitly prohibited in criminal law.

So, tell us then Kara, what sort of oath violation did Trump make?

What was the classified information that Trump unclassified to the Russians? Even the WP couldn't say what it was, even though their "sources" stated that Trump shared intelligence secrets but didn't say what.

Even what the WP did say, doesn't pass the smell test.

I'd wager that it would in order to get a conviction in the senate though.... none of the presidents in your examples were successfully impeached.

In the bill clinton example it was a straight up and down party vote even though he was as guilty as Richard Ramirez.

So there are three hurdles. One - The Republican Controlled House, Two The Republican Controlled Senate and three Donald Trump

If you think you're going to be able to lean on trump like nixon and he'll just slink back to the sewer... I'll have whatever you're having.

If Clinton Corp killed their son, why should we not considet the possibility they are being intimidated?
