In response to Moscow Mitch and all other MAGAts and their bad faith arguments regarding due process and impeachment I submit this:
https://www.politifact.com/truth…
2015: Republicans change rules in the House so they can subpoena Obama admin officials w/o involving the House minority.
2019: Democrats subpoena Trump officials using the precedent set in 2015 by Republicans.
*Dems use impeachment, a process clearly outlined and enshrined in the Constitution to try and remove a POTUS that has broken the law and who is unfit for office*
Republicans: “That’s not fair, where’s the due process, this is a coup!”Who believes this bad faith selective pearl-clutching MAGAt GOP horseshit - oh that's right, the wool over eyes blind sheep low information single issue constituents of red districts who continually vote against their own interests...jfc
- <---- Yupmathinc
- You're talking about overturning 60M+ votes... The Uni Prof has his head up his ass if he thinks he's making an apples / apples comparison.PonyBoy
- Those house rules changes in 2015 had nothing to do w/the anything like impeachment. If you wish to be 'fair' then provide the same...PonyBoy
- ... rules / access that both Clinton and Nixon had to both witnesses / info etc. Schiff controls the witnesses / the questions... all access.PonyBoy
- The new 'rules' just released and that will be voted on tomorrow and nothing more than what they've been doing - they're just putting it in writing.PonyBoy
- *ARE nothing morePonyBoy
- Are you arguing that impeachment inquiries are not warranted or proceeding constitutionally?monospaced
- huh? Did you even read what I wrote? Impeach till your heart's content... just be fucking fair to both sides.PonyBoy
- I did. It was a question.monospaced
- PB, you realize this is just the info gathering stage? You get that part, right? Before you put a criminal on trial.. you interview witnesses.mathinc
- These aren’t proceedings. The process hasn’t even begun.monospaced
- @Pony Did you even read the post? It spells it out quite clearly, and cites a law professor for the Cato Institute ffs.garbage
- So please spare us this "librals deep state" and "both sides" bullshit. Your sugar might be low, have a juice box.garbage
- yes, garbage... your post (as does the Prof) forgets that you're pushing to overturn a duly 'lected Preezy in which you'll be shitting on 60M+ Americans.PonyBoy
- And this juice box I'm drinking is apple-flavored... whereas I bet your Milk is chocolate... comparing the two doesn't make much sense...PonyBoy
- ... other than they're both wet.PonyBoy
- and lol @ your attempt to turn this into more than a fairness issue w/your 'libral derp state' comment. Perhaps you should get that juice box, son.PonyBoy
- Adam Schiff controls every move any Pubby makes during these closed hearings... right down to controlling the Q's of members and A's of witnesses.PonyBoy
- It is unfair to say the least... but you go ahead and try and tie this to something silly and conspiratorial to clear your conscience I guess. :)PonyBoy
- PB, did 60M+ Americans vote to have the president shit on the constitution? Probably not.FNP14
- Maybe they voted to have him shit on poor people, but certainly not the constitution.FNP14
- I'm curious though... you're quoting the right, garbage w/this 'deep state' stuff. Will you accept Michael Horowitz's report when released?PonyBoy
- When did he shit on the constitution, FNP? When he asked another country to investigate their and our country's involvement in fucking w/our election?PonyBoy
- That's not shitting on the constitution... that's doing his job. You might not like the information about come out in the Horowitz report either I'm guessing.PonyBoy
- Now... I'm walking away from this thread until that report hits cuz we all lack a ton of info right now... nobody knows the truth here yet.PonyBoy
- I counted 4:
1. ‘fair’
2. fucking fair
3. fairness issue
4. unfair
Lol, love the selective unbiasedness of MAGA! Wow, struck a nerve, huh...whatthefunk - All that shows is I got my point across... if you want to attach me to an entity you obviously hate, wtfunk— then cuddle-up in that security blanket, friend. :)PonyBoy
- Since you're showing you've obviously picked your reality w/out all the info... will you accept the Horowitz findings, wtfunk?PonyBoy
- fuck... I said I was stepping awayPonyBoy
- Actually, it simply proves the point I made in the post. This is anything but secure, the fundamental principles of our democracy are at stake.whatthefunk
- And MAGA doth protest WAY TOO MUCH!
If [Strawman argument],
Then why isn’t [Red Herring]?
Could it be that [Non-Sequitur]?
Same ol' circular nonsense I fear.whatthefunk - And let's be crystal clear. Impeachment is separate from removal from office, shouldn't conflate the two. First things first.whatthefunk
- Gotta say tho, it's telling ur first comment is "overturning 60M+ votes" like u fear a removal vote is forthcoming if impeached ¯\_(ツ)_/¯whatthefunk
- @whatthefunk Yeah, I didn't bother to respond to PB because he doesn't understand this on a very basic level. Let him eat at the kid's table.garbage
- It is basic... silly unfair practices that don't equate to that of Clinton, Nixon or Johnson for that matter just go to show what clowns Dems have become...PonyBoy
- ... the fact they have to have this much control should show you how full of shit they are.PonyBoy
- The levels of projection by PB here are.... oooof!! Intense. I don’t know how anyone can be that oblivious.scruffics

Hey, the Rs got their wish. The impeachment inquiry will move to the public phase now. No more secrecy, all of the US get to watch the people who worked for the President light his lies on fire publicly. Weird that none of the Rs voted for the public process since that's what they've been screaming for. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Trump lures GOP senators on impeachment with cold cash

Why is the "Throuple" Dem taking impeachment headlines away from President Trump??
Democratic Rep. Katie Hill said that her explosive sex scandal put her in one of the “darkest places that a mind can go” as she gave her final speech on the House floor — and blamed a “misogynistic culture” for her resignation.
The California congresswoman said Thursday that she was stepping down due to a “misogynistic culture that gleefully consumed my naked pictures, capitalized on my sexuality and enabled my abusive ex to continue that abuse.”
“I’m leaving but we have men who have been credibly accused of intentional acts of sexual violence and remain in boardrooms, on the Supreme Court, in this very body, and worst of all, in the Oval Office,” Hill said.
Hill claimed her appearance on Capitol Hill was the first time she left her apartment since scandalous photos emerged along with reports she carried on inappropriate relationships with two staffers.
“I went to the darkest places that a mind can go,” Hill said. “But I made it through because the people who loved me most dragged me back into the light.”

The national debt hits $23 trillion
https://www.axios.com/national-d…
It's worth asking how much of the current U.S. "economic boom" is simply being propped up by deficit spending. The 2008 stimulus bill, which was hugely controversial at the time, cost $800 billion.
Under Trump we're now spending $1 trillion every single year in unpaid tax cuts and spending. And with the recent tax cuts revenues to the government have been reduced by as much as 10% permanently, with no offset in spending.
- Although $1 trillion is less deficit spending compared to previous years, it does continue under the Trump Administration. That's not great.IRNlun6
- It’s actually a big increase under Trump compared with Obama’s second term. Strange because you can understand the need to run a deficit during a financialyuekit
- crisis, but you shouldn’t need it when you have a good economy.yuekit
- Specifically it's twice as high as during the last years of Obama. Mostly thanks to corporate tax cuts and a big increase in military spending.yuekit
- It can be argued that we shouldn't have run a deficit at all to bail out fraudulent banks, but that definitely doesn't excuse the continued overspending.IRNlun6
- And looking at the state of our infrastructure, absolutely zero to show for it.IRNlun6

- socialized stock buybacksdorf
- Borrowing the equivalent of 5% of the economy simply means they'd be in the red if they weren't. This isn't a boom, it's just living off the credit card.zarkonite
- then again, everyone's doing it. China borrows even more...zarkonite
- On the low end of estimates, the stock market has gained $7 trillion in market value since the presidents inauguration.IRNlun6
- It sucks that so many are conditioned to think that wealth is out of their reach but there is no better time to start or acquire a business.IRNlun6
