Hey Judge Howell -- tell us what your really think:
"Even in cases of presidential impeachment, a House resolution has never, in fact, been required to begin an impeachment inquiry."
"The Speaker of the House of Representatives has announced an official impeachment inquiry, and the House Judiciary Committee(“HJC”), in exercising Congress’s “sole Power of Impeachment,”U.S.CONST.art. I, § 2, cl.5, is reviewing the evidence set out in the Mueller Report."
"The reasoning for the purported "House must vote rule" is fatally flawed. The precedential support cited [by DOJ] for the “House resolution” test is cherry-picked and incomplete, and more significantly, this test has no textual support in the U.S. Constitution, the governing rules of the House, or Rule 6(e), as interpreted in binding decisions."
"[DOJ's] arguments smack of farce. The reality is that DOJ and the White House have been openly stonewalling the House’s efforts to get information by subpoena and by agreement, and the White House has flatly stated that the Administration will not cooperate with congressional requests for information. See Letter from Pat A. Cipollone, Counsel to the President, to Representative Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House, et al. (Oct. 8, 2019)."
"The White House’s stated policy of non-cooperation with the impeachment inquiry weighs heavily in favor of disclosure. Congress’s need to access grand jury material relevant to potential impeachable conduct by a President is heightened when the Executive Branch willfully obstructs channels for accessing other relevant evidence."

Re: IMPEACHMENT ... Gather evidence steadily, go to trial in the Senate.
I heard an unfounded rumor that because of IMMENSE, VERY BIG, the ENORMOUS success of the Staircase Brother's Civil Disobedience, they're taking their act on the road. They plan on assembling en masse at Congressman Elijah Cummings's Funeral, GOD REST HIS SOUl, and pee on the hearse that will carry Mr.Cummings to his rest. Wonder if they'll bring Pizza and their cell phones?CU88 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 24, 2019 10:56 amPosted twice because it was so meaningful??Peter Brown wrote: ↑Thu Oct 24, 2019 10:11 amCU88 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 24, 2019 9:46 amRules be Rules, unless?Peter Brown wrote: ↑Thu Oct 24, 2019 9:14 amThe newest old standard was sentence first, trial second. Now it's sentence first, no trial at all. Salem witch trials back in vogue! If you hate the defendant enough, isn't that all that's needed? (John Jay, Eral Warren or Charles Evan Hughes? I remember that brilliant quote but forget who said it).

If something has to be stated as a rule, it's something that's not absolutely necessary but rather preferable, like if you limit bathroom breaks, employees work harder...
This is disgraceful political theater. 47 Republicans sit on those Committees and attend the investigative hearings. A number of them were part of " storming" the hearing that they had free access to.
Thug move
Gaetz, Scalise, Jordan-Hastert and Mighty Mac want to send a warning to any uppity Republican Congressperson to THINK TWICE about following the precedent set that turncoat Mark Meadows.

1. You want taxpayers to continue to pay for your expensive socialized industry (Government owns and operates airports, security, safety protocols)
2. You want to keep taxes low so that we have to borrow the money to keep your business literally in the air.
That about square it? I'd agree with you personal points here. That's a sweet deal for you. For businesses like mine, not so much.
Enjoy my money, I guess.

That's another option so it's actually your choice.a fan wrote: ↑Thu Oct 24, 2019 5:32 pm This is the silly game you play.
If I try and read into your posts, and infer meaning other than literal, you jump all over me, and say "Oh, I never said that, you're building a strawman".
And now here you are, urging me to do just that. You're asking me to understand you thought by reading things into your posts that aren't there.
So here's your chance to get what want. Do you want me to take your posts literally, or do you want me to read into them and guess at your thoughts?
Your choice, I don't care which. Pick one, and be done with it.
Or, better yet, stop complaining because I can't read your mind.
And once you've made your choice, you don't get to shift between demanding I take your posts literally and not build strawmen, and demanding---as you just did----that I DON'T take you literally, and guess at what you are implying.

Interesting statement by the court on page 13: The OLC Opinion that a sitting president is not subject to indictment or criminal prosecution “has never been adopted, sanctioned, or in any way approved by a court.”

Buckle up, LandM.
It's gonna get a whole lot more painful for any Trump apologists.
And, hey, did you hear that there's an election coming up?
Get over it.

Thanks. I saw that, but figured any link posted would just be dispelled as partisan. That guy reminds me of the one parent on every lax team that has done it all and knows everything, just seems shady....kinda like Trump.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Fri Oct 25, 2019 9:10 pm

The complaint was he only had second hand information. Now the dems are going to present witnesses with first hand information AND THIS IS THE PROBLEM.

Nope and Nope. Nixon got what he deserved. The Russians have been messing around for a long time, I am stunned that well educated people such as yourselves are still harping on this. Guess what the Russians are laughing at you guys. Ukraine is a pi$$ poor country that means nothing to me BUT some how instead of going west young man to find gold everyone seems to have gone there......
Unfortunately when he wins again who is to blame - grab a mirror because the bit$ching by the really smart people will get him re-elected - get out of your safe space and see the country.

Re: IMPEACHMENT ... Constitutional method to vacate an election
You're not being consistent, then. All Americans had to do is let Nixon do his thing, and wait for the 76 election....just as you are counseling that we do here with Trump.
