So Joe Biden would ignore a congressional subpoena...

but he supports the impeachment of Donald Trump over people in his administration ignoring congressional subpoenas?

Hypocrisy is the bedrock of liberalism!

Sort of how quid pro quo was fine when he did it, but he believes Trump should be impeached because he might have done it.

Biden Would Not Comply with Senate Subpoena
December 27, 2019 at 10:56 pm EST

Joe Biden told the Des Moines Register that he would not comply with a subpoena to testify at President Trump’s impeachment trial in the Senate.

Biden argued that complying with a subpoena and testifying would essentially allow Trump to shift attention away from the president’s own actions.

Said Biden: “The reason I wouldn’t is because it’s all designed to deal with Trump doing what he’s done his whole life: trying to take the focus off him. The issue is not what I did.”

He added: “This is all about a diversion. And we play his game all the time. He’s done it his whole career.”

Impeachment Supercharges Battle for Senate
December 28, 2019 at 1:45 pm EST

Politico:
“The battle for the Senate majority in 2020 was always going to be heated. And now here comes impeachment. The Senate’s impeachment trial of President Donald Trump is still stuck in limbo, but the looming verdict represents the most consequential vote senators will take before next year’s elections — and a weighty position for challengers seeking to join the chamber.

“Impeachment also threatens to yoke the 35 separate races for Senate seats even closer to the presidential contest. The politics around impeachment have calcified for both parties, with public opinion rigidly consistent and senators and candidates mostly falling along party lines ahead of a prospective vote to acquit Trump or remove him from office.

“Democrats — who need to net three seats in next year’s elections to win back control of the chamber if they also win the presidency — have attempted to squeeze vulnerable GOP senators, calling for a fair trial to include administration witnesses who refused to testify before the House and criticizing Majority Leader Mitch McConnell for saying he did not consider himself an impartial juror.”

Trump Tells California and New York to Ask Him for Help
December 28, 2019 at 2:00 pm EST

President Trump slammed New York and California over homelessness, saying the states’ governors should call him if they “can’t handle” the issue.

Said Trump: “California and New York must do something about their tremendous homeless problems. They are setting records!”

He added: “If their Governors can’t handle the situation, which they should be able to do very easily, they must call and ‘politely’ ask for help. Would be so easy with competence!”

THEY OUGHT TO CALL HIS BLUFF ON THIS.

"WHY YES, MR. PRESIDENT, YOU TELL US EXACTLY WHAT TO DO AND WE'LL HOLD YOU RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RESULTS. YOU SAY IT'S SO EASY TO DO, SO YOU JUST TELL US YOUR BRILLIANT, COMPETENT, "SO EASY" SOLUTION FOR SOLVING HOMELESSNESS IN OUR TWO STATES."

Well Rog... Are Mulvaney, Bolton, Blair, and Duffy under investigation? Because the Democrats want to call a bunch of witnesses that are not "under investigation" to testify.

They claim you have to come and testify (you cannot even challenge it in court) if you are subpoenaed... and it certainly doesn't matter if they are not under investigation... just whether Democrats want to talk to them.


But let's do this.

Let's have Barr call for a Special Counsel to investigate the whole thing. Burisma, Hunter Biden, Shokin, Joe Biden, and find out if Trump had legitimate reason to look into it?

What say you?

You seem to think it's perfectly acceptable for the GOP Presidential Candidate to be under constant investigation...

but poor old Joe cannot handle anything like that, huh?

C.H. Truth said...

He should file to squash the subpoena.

Well isn't that an impeachable offense!

Just ask any of the Congressional Democrat who voted that it was "Obstruction of Congress" who claim you have to submit to the will of Congress?

Or is that just for Democratic subpoenas, not Republican ones?

First. Biden is not under investigation.

Second. This President is not above the law.

Third "squash " is a legal term.

If the court order to appear, he would have to go, or be indicted.

Do you believe that Democratic subpoenas should be enforced, but never for the Republican witnesses are not required by law to appear as directed by the President?

They were witnesses in the President's administration, therefore they should appear or maybe face indictments.

A federal judge on Friday rejected an attempt to restore 98,000 people to Georgia's voter rolls following a recent purge of more than 300,000 voters.

Judge Steve Jones determined that the plaintiffs did not show that the cancellations violated the U.S. constitution, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

The 309,000 purged voters' registrations were canceled because they had moved away or had not participated in elections, although 22,000 of them were reinstated because they contacted election officials during a certain time period.

The Journal-Constitution reported that the 98,000 people affected by Friday's decision had not participated in elections since 2012, but either voted or made contact with election officials during the two years prior to that.

The office of Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger praised Jones's decision in a Friday statement.

"Today Judge Jones upheld Georgia's decision to continue to maintain clean voter rolls," the statement said. "Despite activists' efforts and lawsuits that only waste taxpayer dollars, Georgia is continuing to ensure every eligible voter can vote and voter lists remain accurate."

The suit was brought by voting rights group Fair Fight Action, which is tied to former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams (D).

Georgia would have given them a better game.

Georgia had already lost by 4 touchdowns. You don't get a second chance.

Oklahoma might have been better if they hadn't had three of their best player suspended after drug testing. Had they been at full strength it might be closer.

The difference is the QB play. One if NFL ready, one is just a classic college running QB.

C.H. Truth said...

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE don't allow the very people to testify under oath who really know firsthand what the President said and did.

What difference would it make...

Even what Democrats "accuse" him of isn't close to illegal or impeachable. The fact that they cannot prove it is irrelevant to that.


Next time they decide to impeach. Maybe they do it for an actual crime. Then "witnesses" would be relevant.



And lets be clear here James...

We both know if these witnesses "really" would have made a difference, then the House would have at least "attempted" to compel them to testify with an order from a Judge.

The Dems simply didn't want to get into long drawn out court battles. The battle will now be in the Senate, and Repugs may come off looking bad.

Here's a partial definition even you should be able to understand:

Trump’s War on Science and Common Sense
December 28, 2019

“In just three years, the Trump administration has
diminished the role of science in federal policymaking
while halting or disrupting research projects nationwide,
marking a transformation of the federal government whose effects, experts say,
could reverberate for years,” the Washington Post reports.

“Political appointees have
shut down government studies,
reduced the influence of scientists over regulatory decisions and
in some cases pressured researchers not to speak publicly.
The administration has particularly
challenged scientific findings related to the environment and public health
opposed by industries such as oil drilling and coal mining.
It has also impeded research around human-caused climate change, which President Trump has dismissed despite a global scientific consensus.”

FUTURE GENERATIONS WILL CURSE THIS PRESIDENT.

To squash the subpoena is a legal term. If the Court agrees with the request to squash the subpoena, he does not have to appear during the trial in the Senate trial to testify or face indictment.

Scott, you have lost it.

Since Biden was not being ordered to refuse the subpoena by the President, sorry Scott you are losing it.

He's already been impeached.

The Republican Senate will probably not convict him, but it was impeachable because he was impeached.

The third President in history!

Only 4 Republicans would have to support a trial with testimony by the three stooges.

Commonsense said...

Actually was he really impeach or was it just a resolution?

In other words, is an impeachment not delivered to the senate really an impeachment?

I tend to agree with the Democrats' own expert and says it is not.

So does McConnell (for now). As long a he thinks it's politically advantageous to keep impeachment in limbo, he'll go on remaking the federal courts.

Interesting logic. By the same exact logic:

Trump will be totally exonerated of all wrong doing when he is acquitted or the charges are dismissed in the Senate.

It will be forever determined that he has done absolutely nothing wrong because that is how the Senate will vote.


So that it how it works, if you want to use pure definitions and demand that our Congress is infallible.
