    Good for those 30 GOP members. This scam needs to be shut down. Schitf the pussy ran and hid like a wimp.

    We need more of this from Congressional members before the left completely tears down all of our standards and practices and impeaches a sitting President because they lost the election.

    They broke the law penalty of which is to remove their security clearances. You support equal justice right so I assume you'll be calling for their security clearances to be removed?

    so holding a hearing is now tyrannical....we are certainly fucked aren't we...
    Holding a hearing that doesn't contain any classified information behind close doors where you refuse to provide the transcript of the proceeding, where you bar the opposition party from attending and where you selectively leak cherry picked information to the press is tyrannical.

    liar or moron?
    Why not just make it all open to the public? Why carry this out behind closed doors? And why are you hypocritical pieces of shit who were crying about transparency for the first two years of this Administration now supporting closed door hearing that don't involve classified information?
    Does your local police department publish witness interviews during its investigations? I mean, it’s so sporting to let the witnesses get their stories straight.
    Does the local police force selectively leak the cherry picked testimony of witnesses? Appears the people who are trying to coordinate their testimony are the start witnesses being called by Schiff.
    Ken Starr was leaky too. Kinda makes the case for Mueller’s approach. Maybe AG Fatso should not have refused to appoint a disciplined Special Counsel.

    The reason Nixon ultimately resigned was that the Watergate Hearings were must see TV in 1973 and the Impeachment hearings were also on TV. Not in HD though.

    And get this, they finally got the smoking gun and bi partisan agreement that it was time to LEAVE for Dick

    The Clinton Impeachment was considered more partisan partly because it was and mostly because Clinton has a (D) behind his name. It was also televised and ultimately doomed to a no conviction vote even though Bubba did break the law and end up disbarred. People didn't much care

    But our current democrats once again insisting on fucking things up, have never settled on what exactly they want to impeach Trump for, failed on a Special Counsel, and now are throwing shit at the wall about anything they can make up with fake whistle blowers and morons claiming that daddy confessed they just can't show you where

    Scandals need a hook like anything else which is why after Watergate every scandal was given a gate after it for years. Spying on the DNC and covering it up was an understandable scandal and there were tapes and daddy did confess and it still took a couple years.

    This is nothing like that and wet dreams of Trump suddenly resigning are fucking stupid. This is the life Trump has lived. He's out doing rallies not holed up talking to portraits in the White House.

    Sam Darnold and Donald Trump live for moments like this

    But please continue

    Watergate on TV interrupted General Hospital and Dark Shadows. That was some bullshit.

    Necessary but some bullshit to a 11 year old pre-cable TV and porn.

    Investigations carried out in public on teevee typically lead to theater. Questioning witnesses in 5 minute blocks doesn't usually get you answers. It's why in these cases special prosecutors are used. There will be public hearings.

    You mean a "hearing" done in secret where a tyranical socialist like schitf is not allowing any witnesses called by the GOP? You mean that kind of "hearing"?

    Imagine thinking storming the SCIF and preventing a witness from testifying was a good idea and helps make you look innocent.

    How about preventing witnesses by the GOP to even be called to witness?

    I get it, you have zero moral or respect for fair play because you want nothing but the opportunity to overturn the vote of the people but don't pretend what Schitf is doing is right. FFS show some semblance of decency and adherence to some rules to you rat.

    People forget that during Watergate, journalists behaved like, well, you know....journalists.

    Confirming sources, verifying, double and triple checking. Presenting the facts. Even Woodward and Bernstein played by journalistic ethics then.

    So if the politicians lied their asses off, the Fifth Estate was out there as a shield.

    Now there are all in it together for the book deals and re-tweets.

    The FBI investigated and discovered a connection between cash found on the burglars and a slush fund used by the Committee for the Re-Election of the President (CRP), the official organization of Nixon's campaign.[6][7] In July 1973, evidence mounted against the president's staff, including testimony provided by former staff members in an investigation conducted by the Senate Watergate Committee. The investigation revealed that Nixon had a tape-recording system in his offices and that he had recorded many conversations.[8][9]

    After a series of court battles, the Supreme Court of the United States unanimously ruled that the president was obligated to release the tapes to government investigators (United States v. Nixon). The tapes revealed that Nixon had attempted to cover up activities that took place after the break-in, and to use federal officials to deflect the investigation.[7][10] Facing virtually certain impeachment in the House of Representatives and equally certain conviction by the Senate, Nixon resigned the presidency on August 9, 1974, preventing the House from impeaching him.[11][12] On September 8, 1974, his successor, Gerald Ford, pardoned him.

    But our current democrats once again insisting on fucking things up, have never settled on what exactly they want to impeach Trump for, failed on a Special Counsel, and now are throwing shit at the wall about anything they can make up with fake whistle blowers and morons claiming that daddy confessed they just can't show you where

    Scandals need a hook like anything else which is why after Watergate every scandal was given a gate after it for years. Spying on the DNC and covering it up was an understandable scandal and there were tapes and daddy did confess and it still took a couple years.

    This is nothing like that and wet dreams of Trump suddenly resigning are fucking stupid. This is the life Trump has lived. He's out doing rallies not holed up talking to portraits in the White House.

    Sam Darnold and Donald Trump live for moments like this

    But please continue

    You have to admire Race’s willingness to argue there are no grounds for impeachment even as many of the grounds become more obvious.
    So obvious you can't point them out
    Obstruction of justice

    Suborning perjury

    Soliciting foreign aid in a US political campaign.


    Not difficult.
    Now all you need is proof

    Sounds serious. May make good articles of impeachment
    Gosh what happened to collusion with the Russians?
    What happened to the "witness"? Schitf met with, coached and then lawyered up the fake witness with 15th hand information. A witness who worked for biden and was a big rat supporter no less. Now we haven't heard a peep.

    Watergate on TV interrupted General Hospital and Dark Shadows. That was some bullshit.

    Necessary but some bullshit to a 11 year old pre-cable TV and porn.

    It was my wheelhouse. Summer between junior and senior years in high school

    I ripped Nixon in my graduation speech and two months later he was gone. Lots of warning just gone

    Good for those 30 GOP members. This scam needs to be shut down. Schitf the pussy ran and hid like a wimp.

    We need more of this from Congressional members before the left completely tears down all of our standards and practices and impeaches a sitting President because they lost the election.

    They broke the law penalty of which is to remove their security clearances. You support equal justice right so I assume you'll be calling for their security clearances to be removed?

    "When a government betrays the people by amassing too much power and becoming tyrannical, the people have no choice but to exercise the original rights of self defense - to fight the government."
    - Thomas Jefferson

    Jeffersonian Republicans. Weird.

    so holding a hearing is now tyrannical....we are certainly fucked aren't we...
    Holding a hearing that doesn't contain any classified information behind close doors where you refuse to provide the transcript of the proceeding, where you bar the opposition party from attending and where you selectively leak cherry picked information to the press is tyrannical.

    liar or moron?
    Why not just make it all open to the public? Why carry this out behind closed doors? And why are you hypocritical pieces of shit who were crying about transparency for the first two years of this Administration now supporting closed door hearing that don't involve classified information?
    Does your local police department publish witness interviews during its investigations? I mean, it’s so sporting to let the witnesses get their stories straight.
    Does the local police force selectively leak the cherry picked testimony of witnesses? Appears the people who are trying to coordinate their testimony are the start witnesses being called by Schiff.
    Ken Starr was leaky too. Kinda makes the case for Mueller’s approach. Maybe AG Fatso should not have refused to appoint a disciplined Special Counsel.
    Muller leaked like a sieve
    People forget that during Watergate, journalists behaved like, well, you know....journalists.

    Confirming sources, verifying, double and triple checking. Presenting the facts. Even Woodward and Bernstein played by journalistic ethics then.

    So if the politicians lied their asses off, the Fifth Estate was out there as a shield.

    Now there are all in it together for the book deals and re-tweets.

    We had subscriptions to both Time and Newsweek and I read them cover to cover every week

    The house will vote on the articles in 6-8 weeks, after the investigation is completed. Then the senate hold a trial. I’m sure congress will find your unique observations and analysis helpful in their deliberations.

    Gosh what happened to collusion with the Russians?
    What happened to the "witness"? Schitf met with, coached and then lawyered up the fake witness with 15th hand information. A witness who worked for biden and was a big rat supporter no less. Now we haven't heard a peep.
    Seriously. You girls need some brushing up on basic logic. The hearsay of the whistleblower has been confirmed as accurate.

    His/her complaint explicitly named many of the witnesses that have now been interviewed and whom we are currently discussing. That this would occur was explained to you very early on.

    I know this stuff moves a little fast for you, Atl but do keep up.

    The FBI investigated and discovered a connection between cash found on the burglars and a slush fund used by the Committee for the Re-Election of the President (CRP), the official organization of Nixon's campaign.[6][7] In July 1973, evidence mounted against the president's staff, including testimony provided by former staff members in an investigation conducted by the Senate Watergate Committee. The investigation revealed that Nixon had a tape-recording system in his offices and that he had recorded many conversations.[8][9]

    After a series of court battles, the Supreme Court of the United States unanimously ruled that the president was obligated to release the tapes to government investigators (United States v. Nixon). The tapes revealed that Nixon had attempted to cover up activities that took place after the break-in, and to use federal officials to deflect the investigation.[7][10] Facing virtually certain impeachment in the House of Representatives and equally certain conviction by the Senate, Nixon resigned the presidency on August 9, 1974, preventing the House from impeaching him.[11][12] On September 8, 1974, his successor, Gerald Ford, pardoned him.


    All on TV

    Weird because O'Keefed told us that they have to hold these proceedings secret so that witnesses can't corroborate their stories

    If you want to build support from the public and have a case you do it in public

    If you have no case and want to try to get support by lying and selective leaking you do it in private
