House Prepared to Act on Rosenstein Impeachment Threat
« on: June 23, 2018, 01:38:31 pm »

The House is prepared to file articles of impeachment against Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein if the Department of Justice fails to fork over documents related to the Russia probe that lawmakers have requested by Friday.

Republicans have tossed around the impeachment threat for weeks. Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said during an interview on Fox News Friday morning that time has just about run out.

I hope they have a good osteopath on standby, with all this posturing.

This dramatic posturing, just like “War and Peace”, just drags on and on with othing of substance.

Whoop-de-doo.  The Senate would never convict, even if this did get by the House, which is also doubtful.

That headline made me chuckle a little. I've been hearing this for 6 months.

"Oh but, this time we really, really, really, double dog, mean it. I swear. This time it is real! I promise."

I'm very sure Rosenstein is laughing too.

Entry 33

A scene from every stupid movie ever made. Reminds me of Congress.

I'm going to shoot. Really I am. Get ready to die! Here I go. I'm cocking my gun for the 6th time (with no chambered round being ejected which means I was basically pointing an empty weapon at you) just to let you know that I am serious. Ok. Get ready. First let me tell you why I'm going to shoot you. And then I will shoot you. You think you can kill my sister and get away with it? I remember when I first met you...blah, blah, blah,...somehow bad guy gets away, as always.

@Cyber Liberty

Their job is to do the impeaching and not worry about what the senate may or may not do afterwards!

Yes we know, and no, they didn't:


New reports of DOJ/FBI compliance with document requests are NOT accurate. While they have turned over additional documents, the new documents represent a small percentage of what they owe.

The notion that DOJ/FBI have been forthcoming with Congress is false.

Quite right!  But...the lack of Senatorial support will serve as an excuse to kick this can!
