Whether the president was directly involved in a conspiracy with the Russian government to interfere with the 2016 election remains the subject of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation. But we do not need to wait on the outcome of that criminal investigation before moving forward now with an inquiry in the House of Representatives on whether the president has committed impeachable “high crimes and misdemeanors” against the state: abuse of power and abuse of the public trust.
The Framers distinguished the impeachment power from the power of a criminal prosecution. While Congress has the impeachment power to prevent future harm to our government, prosecutors have the power to seek punishment for those who commit crimes. But it is not Mueller’s role to determine whether the president has committed impeachable offenses. That is the responsibility of Congress.
We are also now hearing the dangerous claim that initiating impeachment proceedings against this president is politically unwise and that, instead, the focus should now shift to holding the president accountable via the 2020 election. Such a claim places partisan gamesmanship over our country and our most vulnerable at this perilous moment in our nation’s history. Members of Congress have a sworn duty to preserve our Constitution. Leaving a lawless president in office for political points would be abandoning that duty.
So basically the argument is circular and rhetorical
- You don't actually have to wait until there is any proof of any crime to impeach the President.
- You just need to decide that you can impeach a President to prevent him from causing "further harm". In this case the subjective opinion that he has committed an "abuse of power" and an "abuse of public trust" is enough to impeach him.
- Abuse of Presidential power has always been a constitutional question that has been decided by the courts. When the USSC (on multiple occasions) decided unanimously that Obama had crossed the lines and overstepped his authority there was no public cry for impeachment or insistence that it was a criminal action. Moreover, the actions of Trump (so far) have been upheld by the USSC on several occasions. Abuse of power is a provable tangible issue. Not a subjective one.
- Abuse of public trust is certainly not a crime, and by nature is an opinion that will differ based on your political ideology and feelings about Trump. If you voted for Trump, then he has not likely let you down, or abused the trust of your vote. If you didn't vote for Trump, then the fact that you are disappointed is a matter of politics, not a matter of it being a criminal or an impeachable issue.
So on one hand, they suggest that proof of a crime isn't really necessary, but yet will refer to him as "lawless" based on their opinion that he has abused the power of the Presidency and abused public trust (which are not criminal). Get it? You don't need a criminal act, rather we will just refer to a non-criminal act as lawless.
What they want to do is basically use the idea of impeachment as means to "recall" or provide a "no confidence" vote to the President in order to undo the 2016 election. While the option to recall an elected official or provide for a vote of "no confidence" exists in many systems of governments, it does not exist in ours.
In our system, you can impeach a President who had been determined to commits acts of high crimes or misdemeanors, or to vote him out of office is you don't like the job he is doing. The new wackos of the left, would like to change our constitution with little more than rhetoric and anger.

Thanks to the liberals who took over public education we have a generation of young people who are clueless as to how government and the Constitution works.
This generation never learned civics, never was instilled with a sense of who we are as a people, never got education to intuitively know what is right or wrong in politics and government.
We may very well have an authoritian dictator but it will come from the left. It wlll be a Gaven Newsome of Francis O'Rouck instead of a Donald Trump.

The house of Representatives can charge the President with high crimes and misdemeanors. That's the only Constitutional requirement.

I think the founders envision that there would be some sort of evidence before you took the extreme step of impeachment.
They assume the house of represenatives would be serious, responsible people. Obviously they never foresaw the modern Democrat party.
In our system, you can impeach a President who had been determined to commits acts of high crimes or misdemeanors, or to vote him out of office is you don't like the job he is doing.
Correct. But it has strong implications to the office of the President in the future.
If the Republicans had attempted to impeach President Obama because they (had been determined to commits acts of high crimes or misdemeanors, or to vote him out of office is you don't like the job he is doing.)
You would have enthusiastically agreed to his impeachment because of the ACA.

If they find out that he has objected justice or conspired with the Russians even though second person he should be impeached.
The accusations of up and down the line the Democrat party is becoming increasingly more anti-Semitic is fucking ridiculous.
Incorrect. Barack Obama was guilty of a number of abuse of power offenses with DACA being the most famous. He lost a number of cases in SCOTUS to prove it but not one is an impeachable crime.
"Abuse of Trust" is a political opinion not an impeachable crime. It is an issue that is settle in the ballot box.
The voters usually don't forgive politicians who try to overturn the results of a presidential election without a very good reason. Proceed at your own risk.
Zero people have been arrested at the Mexican border for suspicion of terrorism in the last year.

Roger,
Had people on the right had "enthusiasm" about impeaching President Obama over passing a bad law, then people on the right would have called for his impeachment.
They didn't. Instead they beat the hell out of the Democrats at the ballot box, and promised to try to use their new found political power to legally change the law through legislative channels.
Nobody called for his impeachment because nobody on the right is dumb enough to believe that impeachment is about policy or personality disagreements.
Only people on the left are that obtuse.
Obama had not committed any crimes to impeach him for. The USSC was there to slap down his abuse of power, and the people eventually voted his Party out of both chambers of Congress.
over passing a bad law, then people on the right would have called for his impeachment.
Seems like cramps....there was plenty of sources talking about impeachment including rush who talked about it all the time....

the USSC declared the ACA constitutional, alky. how the fuck do you impeach a guy for that??? for you to even float the idea leads me to believe that you are genuinely mentally ill.
it was piss poor law, but constitutional. as as scott noted, the way to punish a politician for bad law is to stomp them at the ballot box, which is exactly what happened to skeets. twice. and since then it's been gutted so badly only a shell remains. it's will collapse on it's own due to it's financial inviability.
now, by calling for trump's impeachment you're admitting to the american people that you don't have what it takes to beat him in an election.

the bozo's post just ran the numbers and discovered that her proposed 70% tax on $$$ over $10 M pays for 2.2% of her free shit.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2019/01/05/ocasio-cortez-wants-higher-taxes-very-rich-americans-heres-how-much-money-could-that-raise/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.c40d4bc6a96d
In 2016, the latest year for which government data is available, approximately 16,000 Americans earned more than $10 million each. These are not in fact “the 1 percent” many on the left like to talk about — they are a much smaller slice, fewer than 0.05 percent of all U.S. households.
It’s difficult to estimate precisely how much more in taxes the government could wring from this ultra-elite. Collectively, their total taxable income amounted to $405 billion in 2016, and they paid about $121 billion in federal income taxes. They also face state and local taxes, which raise their overall tax burdens.
As she noted to “60 Minutes,” Ocasio-Cortez’s idea for a 70 percent tax rate on those earning more than $10 million would only kick in beyond the first $10 million in income. So, this new tax rate would do nothing to add to the amount of federal revenue on the first $160 billion (16,000 people multiplied by $10 million) in taxes this group paid.
But that leaves about $244 billion in taxable income for those earning more than $10 million a year. If this entire pool was taxed at 70 percent instead of the 39.6 percent they paid in 2016, the federal government would bring in an additional $72 billion annually — or close to $720 billion over 10 years, according to Mazur.

Keep the Mic in her face. Please.
"“If people want to really blow up one figure here or one word there, I would argue that they’re missing the forest for the trees,” Ocasio-Cortez responded. “I think that there’s a lot of people who are more concerned about being precisely, factually and semantically correct than about being morally right.” Ocasio-Cortez is a Democratic Socialist
Scott I seriously disagree with the movement to impeach President Trump.
We soundly defeated the Republican candidates by over ten million votes in the house of Representatives.
The house Democrats should wait for the investigations report before initiating impeachment hearings.
But they definitely should subpoena his tax returns and other financial actions.
He wants a national speech to be broadcast live by the mayor networks.
President Trump just announced that he’s giving a speech on Tuesday at 9 p.m. on “the Humanitarian and National Security crisis on our Southern Border.” Various reporters inform us that the networks are deciding whether to carry it live.
The announcement itself — with its absurd hyping of the notion of a “national security crisis” at the border — leaves no doubt whatsoever about the level of agitprop deception Trump intends to employ. So the networks cannot pretend to be under any illusions about his intentions.
He is increasingly like a caged animal.
They should carry the speach, and follow up immediately to explain the multiple lines and distortions of the facts.

If we are going to get Medicare for all, we would have to go back to the tax rates in the 1950s and early 60s. The tax rates for the top 10 percent would increase to about 60 or even 70 percent with deductions.

There's not enough rich people to pay for Medicare for all. You can only pay for it by taxing everybody. Heavely, Far more heavely than the 50's and 60's tax rates.
Trump Told His Immigration Message Not Working
7:20 pm EST
“The President’s decision to deliver a prime-time address and visit the southern border came after some of his allies warned him his arguments about immigration aren’t resonating,” CNN reports.
“In conversations over the past two weeks, some of the President’s advisers have told him that simply tweeting and speaking off-the-cuff wouldn’t alone suffice in convincing Americans a border wall is necessary.”

U.S. Customs and Border Protection encountered only six immigrants on the U.S-Mexico border in the first half of fiscal year 2018 whose names were on a federal government list of known or suspected terrorists, according to CBP data obtained by NBC News.
The low number contradicts statements by Trump administration officials who said Friday that CBP stopped nearly 4,000 known or suspected terrorists from crossing the southern border in fiscal year 2018.

Trump Struggles to Replace Mattis

President Trump “is having a tough time hiring a Pentagon chief after the abrupt departure of Defense Secretary Jim Mattis late last month,” Politico reports.
“The refusals are particularly striking given that the top Pentagon job is historically among the Cabinet’s most prestigious and powerful, and coveted by national security veterans. But Mattis’ resignation — announced in a letter indicating that Trump had disregarded his advice on fundamental issues — has reinforced the image of a commander in chief unafraid to buck his top military advisers.”

'Call Me a Radical:' Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Pushes Back Against Criticism on '60 Minutes'
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez burst onto the political scene last year, defying odds and becoming the youngest woman ever elected to the House of Representatives.
Just days into her term, the freshman Congresswoman from New York has continued to push back against criticism and stand fast in her Democratic Socialist convictions. Speaking to Anderson Cooper in Sunday’s episode of 60 Minutes, Ocasio-Cortez discussed expectations, her policy positions, and making mistakes along the way.
Ocasio-Cortez expressed little concern that people seem to think she doesn’t know “how the game is played,” telling Cooper that she wants people to underestimate her as that’s how she won her primary, she says.
On the plausibility of her proposed policies such as the Green New Deal and Socialist-tinged approaches to housing, healthcare, and education, Ocasio-Cortez stood by her ideas. She explained that while such goals may be ambitious and costly, “no one asks how we’re going to pay for this Space Force. No one asked how we paid for a $2 trillion tax cut.
“How do we pay for [such proposals]?” she continued, “with the same exact mechanisms that we pay for military increases for this Space Force. For all of these…ambitious policies.”
When Cooper called hers a “radical agenda” when “compared to the way politics is done right now,” Ocasio-Cortez didn’t shy away from the radical label. She told the host that “it only has ever been radicals that have changed this country. Abraham Lincoln made the radical decision to sign the Emancipation Proclamation. Franklin Delano Roosevelt made the radical decision to embark on establishing programs like Social Security.”
And, she noted, “if that’s what radical means, call me a radical.”

Democrats Faked Online Push to Outlaw Alcohol in Alabama Race
The “Dry Alabama” Facebook page, illustrated with stark images of car wrecks and videos of families ruined by drink, had a blunt message: Alcohol is the devil’s work, and the state should ban it entirely.
Along with a companion Twitter feed, the Facebook page appeared to be the work of Baptist teetotalers who supported the Republican, Roy S. Moore, in the 2017 Alabama Senate race. “Pray for Roy Moore,” one tweet exhorted.
In fact, the Dry Alabama campaign, not previously reported, was the stealth creation of progressive Democrats who were out to defeat Mr. Moore — the second such secret effort to be unmasked. In a political bank shot made in the last two weeks of the campaign, they thought associating Mr. Moore with calls for a statewide alcohol ban would hurt him with moderate, business-oriented Republicans and assist the Democrat, Doug Jones, who won the special election by a hair-thin margin.
Matt Osborne, a veteran progressive activist who worked on the project, said he hoped that such deceptive tactics would someday be banned from American politics
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/07/us/politics/alabama-senate-facebook-roy-moore.html
So Democrats spent more on "Russian" bots than Russia did and ran two false flag campaigns in the Alabama Senate race. Where's the outrage and daily front page news ???
The first Dirty Democrats campaign:(follow the link)
Here’s The After-Action Report From the Alabama Senate Disinformation Campaign
The following is a leaked copy of the secret after-action report from the Alabama Senate disinfo campaign, sometimes referred to as Project Birmingham. The New York Times broke the story of an orchestrated disinformation campaign in this December 19 article. The Times article referred to these documents, but they haven’t been publicly available until now. The images have been tweaked to remove watermarks and metadata.

Several dozen House Republicans might cross the aisle this week to vote for Democratic bills to reopen shuttered parts of the federal government, spurring the White House into a dramatic effort to stem potential GOP defections.
White House officials and Republican congressional leaders worry that GOP support for the shutdown is eroding, weakening President Donald Trump’s hand as he seeks billions of dollars for a border wall that Democrats have vowed to oppose, according to GOP lawmakers and aides.
Hoping to sway skeptics in his party and the broader public, Trump will make an Oval Office address Tuesday night to discuss what he called the “Humanitarian and National Security Crisis on our Southern Border," he said on Twitter. Then he will visit the border region on Thursday.
It could get so bad for the that the house could override a veto. The Senate is less likely but Trump is going to take the blame for his shutdown.
So President Trump gets aired on all lame stream channels.
Thank God for Dish, I will ignore it all.
Oh, nastychuck, they both want equal air time as the President.

Senate Bill 1, Pro- Israel Bill.
Well...
"Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who likes to refer to himself as the “guardian” of Israel, is whipping against a pro-Israel bill in the U.S. Senate "
"The bill, sponsored by Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) with bipartisan support, deals with national security in the Middle East and helps states act against the anti-Israel “boycott, divestment, sanctions” (BDS) movement. Some critics of BDS call the movement antisemitic, because it only targets the Jewish state."

She regained the gavel just over 96 hours ago, but there’s already bad news for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi: Americans want border security.
An Associated Press poll taken just before the shutdown shows that border security is among the top five concerns for the American people.
A recent Gallup Poll — seen as the gold standard in polling — also reported that border security had moved into the top-two concerns for Americans just after the 2018 midterm elections.
A Rasmussen Poll shows that nearly one-fourth of Americans would contribute their own money to build a border wall.
An Economist/YouGov poll shows that a whopping 62 percent of Americans view illegal immigration as either a “very serious problem” or a “somewhat serious problem” — with only seven percent of Americans believing that illegal immigration is “not” a problem.
Suffice it to say, poll numbers are not on Speaker Pelosi’s side in her government shutdown negotiations.

If we are going to get Medicare for all, we would have to go back to the tax rates in the 1950s and early 60s. The tax rates for the top 10 percent would increase to about 60 or even 70 percent with deductions.
So just a few comments after the analysis that showed that the 70% tax rate proposed would only increase revenue by 72 billion a year... which would cover less than 3% of the cost of "medicare for all"....
Roger repeats the silly pie in the sky liberal belief that taxing the rich would pay for Universal medical insurance.
This is cognitive dissonance at it's best. Just a flat out denial of reality in order to continue to believe that "medicare for all" is actually something you can just "pay for".

A concreat wall won't rust. It would be cool to have a 20 foot wall with stylish watch towers.
MELTDOWN: Assholio Fucktardio-Cortez Explodes After Fact-Check, Doesn't Want To Be Held To Same Standards As Trump
It pretty damn bad when a liberals Democrat complains about liberal Democrat "fact-checkers".
Roger repeats the silly pie in the sky liberal belief that taxing the rich would pay for Universal medical insurance.
This is cognitive dissonance at it's best. Just a flat out denial of reality in order to continue to believe that "medicare for all" is actually something you can just "pay for".
i'm not convinced the alky's "thought process" is driven by cog dis denial as much as it is thinly veiled dishonesty.
if you recall, alky was convinced that if 0linsky and his merry band of henchmen could just drag the ACA across the finish line in the dead of night, it would be like herpes - we'd have it forever, just like every other massively expensive entitlement ever implemented.
and medicaid for all is no different.
the liberal thought process is - just pass the fucker. and once we get the people hooked on it like a junkie on heroin it'll be here to stay and we just seize what we need going forward.
remember, the ultimate goal of the ACA was always single payer. even that asshole gruber knew that in the form that it passed it could never be sustained.

Oxidize is another story....rebar corrodes from the inside out....

then let's just put up a bunch of cameras a buy a bunch of drones so the border agents can watch the beaners swarm across the border in HD.
Great plan asshole since there are no swarms of beaners crossing the border as you claim!!! They come through checkpoints!!!! How else would they be able to catch those 4000 terrorists that is claimed to have stopped....LOLOLO
How do you think it would take rebar to rust in concreat?
You think the rebar in Hoover Dam is still intact or should people move away from the dam?
Idiot
Great plan asshole since there are no swarms of beaners crossing the border as you claim!!
There were 6,000 that tried to storm the border the other day.
The only thing that stop them was a wall.
hey d0pie,
here's a story i've been hoping would be written:
Let's Play Follow The Climate Money!
Then we get to the really big money: taxpayer funds that government agencies hand out to scientists, computer modelers and pressure groups – to promote global warming and climate change alarmism.
As Heritage Foundation economist Stephen Moore noted recently, citing government and other reports:
* Federal funding for climate change research, technology, international assistance, and adaptation has increased from $2.4 billion in 1993 to $11.6 billion in 2014, with an additional $26.1 billion for climate change programs and activities provided by the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
* The Feds spent an estimated $150 billion on climate change and green energy subsidies during President Obama’s first term.
* That didn’t include the 30% tax credits/subsidies for wind and solar power: $8 billion to $10 billion a year – plus billions more from state programs that require utilities to buy expensive “green” energy.
* Worldwide, according to the “progressive” Climate Policy Initiative, climate change “investment” in 2013 totaled $359 billion – but this “falls far short” of the $5 trillion per year that’s actually needed.
The UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change echoes those greedy demands. It says the world must spend $2.4 trillion per year for the next 17 years to subsidize the transition to renewable energy.
Bear in mind that $1.5 trillion per year was already being spent in 2014 on Climate Crisis, Inc. research, consulting, carbon trading and renewable projects, according to the Climate Change Business Journal. With 6-8% annual growth, we’re easily looking at a $2-trillion-per-year climate industry by now.
The US Government Accountability Office puts United States taxpayer funding alone at $2.1 billion per year for climate change “science” … $9.0 billion a year for technology R&D … and $1.8 billion a year for international assistance. Total US Government spending on climate change totaled $179 billion (!) from 1993 through 2017, according to the GAO. That’s $20 million per day!
At the September 2018 Global Climate Action Summit, 29 leftist foundations pledged to give $4 billion over five years to their new Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming campaign. Sea Change Foundation co-founder Nat Simons made it clear that this “is only a down payment”!

So if we stop funding the climate change scam. We could build the wall. Three times over.
So according to Denny's article...
The best option would be to use the steel/concrete concept, but include the rust-inhibiting compound that would prevent the steel from rusting.
The only downside (or upside depending on your view) is that it can make the structure somewhat toxic. But then again, why build a wall to keep people out when you could build a toxic wall to keep people out!
So yeah, not okay to use the toxic rust-inhibitor when you are building a structure that people will be in. But I see no reason why it couldn't be used for an outside wall.
Paul is probably crying out loud and drinking a lot of beer

Democrats explain that walls are a 4th Century technology nobody uses any more, like wheels

Let's get the wording right like RRB and I have.
It is Medicaid for All.
Taxing the top will not pay for it, again her Socialist math skills failed her.
ACA and now this require a payroll tax.
