So much for a quickie impeachment: Now Nancy Pelosi wants expand hearings beyond Ukraine
By Monica Showalter

 

Up until now, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she had the goods on President Trump and impeachment would move expeditiously.

Until she didn't.

Now she says she wants to expand the impeachment inquiry beyond Ukraine, raising the specter of mission creep as well as long, drawn out, impeachment hearings on every topic the Democrats can scare up.

According to the Hill:

    Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Friday it's possible that controversies beyond Ukraine could be part of the impeachment case against President Trump.

    House Democrats have recently sought to narrow their impeachment inquiry to the allegations stemming from an intelligence community whistleblower complaint that said Trump tried to pressure Ukraine to initiate politically charged investigations in return for the release of congressionally approved security aid.

It's the only logical way to do this. No one has ever been impeached on just 1 Article

[Cyber Liberty]

Whatever it takes to keep the secret smear machine running until the first votes are cast in Iowa.

[Snarknado]

As if it was ever anything but a partisan fishing expedition.

They obviously want to drag it out as long as possible to influence the election. Once they're confident Trump will lose, they'll negotiate a slap-on-the-wrist rebuke and say that "fairness" dictates that the voters should decide.

Its the only logical thing to do when you can't find an impeachable offense.

[sneakypete]

I am sure there must me someone,somewhere,who is surprised by this,but I can't begin to guess who it might be,or where their cave is located.

There's obviously a case against Trump.

"OBSTRUCTION OF THE MUELLER INVESTIGATION

CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD CAMPAIGN FINANCE LAW

ACCEPTANCE OF EMOLUMENTS

OBSTRUCTION OF CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATIONS

ATTEMPTS TO PRESSURE UKRAINE TO INVESTIGATE RIVAL"

Obvious only to the fevered partisan leftist.

But I guess when you're worried about not being able to win through the ballot box winning via soviet style show trials might start looking like a viable option. Besides, behavior like this comes naturally to the socialist.

The Soviets wish they had a Constitution that allowed for lawful removal of a President.

God bless us.

The radical Republicans that don't see any case whatsoever are the problem. There's certainly a case, whether it's enough to convince the Senate Republicans or, more precisely, their constituents is to be determined

What is a "radical republican".

You progressives are hilarious. Always expecting everyone to play along in your delusions.

It's one thing to demand those around use your preferred gender pronoun but the stakes here in your effort to gain an office you couldn't win fairly are a bit higher for all of us. Don't be surprised if not all of us feel much like humoring you.

"OBSTRUCTION OF THE MUELLER INVESTIGATION

Um.... there was no such obstruction since the Mueller Investigation was completed and reported on, showing NO collusion and/or obstruction.  The first nothing-burger that took three friggin years of propaganda (lies) from the idiot left.

CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD CAMPAIGN FINANCE LAW

Yeah, but only by various and assorted DemocRats.

ACCEPTANCE OF EMOLUMENTS

And again... applied only to DemocRats.  Namely.... the Bidens, for just one example.

OBSTRUCTION OF CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATIONS

When?   Where?   

ATTEMPTS TO PRESSURE UKRAINE TO INVESTIGATE RIVAL"

More bullshit lies from the idiot left.   That lie don't fly... and anyone that thinks it does is a dumbass.  A royal one, at that.

There's nothing to humor. We'll all likely get to see a trial play out in the Senate and evidence will be presented and defended.

This is happening because it has merit. Whether some people want to acknowledge it or not.

Wrong.   Or rather, more lies.   There is no case.   All there is .... is this ongoing attempt to tamper with the 2020 election by driving down Trump's approval rating with the never-ending lies and throwing $hit against the wall and hoping it sticks campaign of the DemocRats.

No.  It's happening because enough stuckonstupid folks out there either voted DemocRat or sat home on their fat, ignorant, ugly @sses....and sulked and didn't bother to vote in 2018... thus allowing the radical effing left to take over the House.   This kind of totalitarian BS (like how they passed Obamacare) is what you get every single time you put the idiot left into positions of power.

Okay. I'm not in the Trump cult, so I can actually see there is a case against him.

If the house impeaches, we'll get to see for sure what the case is. But there are certainly things they can use.

Right. And the rats are clairvoyant, having predicted Trump would be impeached before he was even inaugurated.

Please for the love of all thats good stop lying.

Well, I don't know who predicted what, but any rational person could forsee the possibility of there being an issue with emoluments and thus a possible case for impeachment even before Trump took office.

[skeeter]

Well, I don't know who predicted what

Yes you do.

Again for G*d's sake, stop lying.

Lefties can never stop lying.  It's apparently in their DNA.

You don't have to be in a cult (nice insult, btw) to see logically and truthfully that the entire rat endeavor has been, from the start, intended to keep Trump out of the White House.  From the very beginning (meaning even before he was elected) it was coordinated, orchestrated and organized by radical leftists (Obama, Hillary, etc.), funded by Soros, and backed by the globalists to take control (again) of America.  The end results would be even worse than Venezuela.   

Your problem...... is that too many Americans, like myself, know about all of this and are saying not just no, but HELL NO to your agenda.   Suck on it.

Leftwing equivocators depend upon our good faith attempts to honestly respond to their constant prevarications.

It is impossible to argue effectively with liars. Or crazy people.

Assuming there is a Trump cult, it has nothing to do with being able to see a kangaroo court when one exists.
