The 3-ringed Schiff-Show raced ahead to its foreordained conclusion ‘in the interest of national security’. Is the plan now to keep them in her pocket until 2021? Is that even legal?
If she knows she’s going to lose her case in the Senate anyway, and the REAL goal was to have Trump officially branded as a ‘bad man’, what’s to say she won’t at least TRY to find some excuse to delay submitting the articles, so she can have her cake and eat it too?
Who even cares if the charges stick… innocence is no longer presumed in America, right? What really mattered all along was the court of public opinion in an election year! This was an elaborate attempt to politically destroy a political adversary.
The articles of Impeachment themselves were the most blatant example yet of Democrats accusing the other side of actions of which they themselves are guilty. Abuse of power. Contempt of Congress. They’re two for two.

While Judicial Watch takes old Schifty to court for the illegitimate warrants he executed against US persons, including political rivals among Congress, the press, and the President’s own lawyer, we have yet another political stand off brewing.
Pelosi wants to have it both ways: she took a vote to IMPEACH Trump, but she is refusing to pass the papers on to the Senate until terms of her own choosing are met — despite the Senate being an entirely independent body.
She wants to be judge, jury, and executioner, so to speak. She has no such right.
Having already blown all manner of Congressional norms straight to Hell, (no to mention rule of law and presumption of innocence) what would possibly constrain her ambitions now? Her supporters are calling for her to swing for the fences and hold them in her pocket until a NEW Senate takes over.
Considering Schiff is already sniffing around for ways to bring Pence down, too and Pelosi would be third-in-line for the Presidency, this is about as conflicted as personal political interest can get!
Democrats are egging her on to stuff it in her pocket.
Nancy should hold the articles until there is a fair Senate trial with witnesses. Hold the articles until Jan. 2021, and a NEW senate has been elected, hopefully retiring McConnell as well. Meanwhile keep investigating Trump, in the event he is reelected.https://t.co/03B6GGDTkX

Speaker Pelosi @SpeakerPelosi Think about holding onto the Articles of Impeachment until after January 20, 2021. There is NO RUSH. Certainly hold out through Feb. 4, 2020.Let the Supreme Arse rant about himself during the State of the Union message! Last 3 yrs have been him/crap! https://t.co/OtbIz4WuyY

I agree!I, like many others, urged Speaker Pelosi @SpeakerPelosi to hold onto the Articles of Impeachment.Until the 51 REPUBLICAN @GOP Senators can demonstrate a high degree of integrity re the Senate trial, sit on them.After November 3, 2020 submit them or after Jan 20, 2021😂 https://t.co/tec6qFcY1K

This is the equivalent of charging someone with a criminal offense but refusing the accused’s right for a speedy trial. A cloud of suspicion hangs over the accused’s head whether guilty or innocent.
And do you notice the invoking of Merrick Garland here?
Stalling a judicial nominee with the ‘Biden’ strategy is NOT the same as refusing to give an accused man his day in court.
Are these people too thick or too dishonest to understand that? There really isn’t a third option.
What do Senate Republicans have to say about it?
Last night, House Democrats passed the thinnest, weakest presidential impeachment in American history. Now they’re suggesting they are too afraid to even submit their accusations to the Senate and go to trial. The prosecutors are getting cold feet in front of the entire country.

Stop playing games with the Constitution.
In our system, you can’t be the Speaker of the House and the Senate Majority Leader at the same time.
The Senate will decide how we dispose of this sham created by the House.

Democrats are treating impeachment as an open bar tab.
Time to cut them off, take their car keys away (put GOP in control of the House), and end this insanity.

It’s time for @SpeakerPelosi, who claimed impeachment was a national imperative, to fish or cut bait.
Commit to sending the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate consistent with Constitutional obligations. https://t.co/QpSptWm34F

If she refuses, Mitch should walk it over to the courts, and demand that these articles either be submitted for consideration by the Senate or struck down (preferably, ‘with prejudice’).
Enough is enough.
Put up or shut up, Nancy.
We’ve all seen the dishonest games the left have played with the power they’re entrusted with, they’re obviously unworthy of that trust.
But what about 2020? Could a moral person pull a lever for Trump with their integrity intact? Would Jesus himself vote for Trump? We’re glad you asked. There’s a brand new book that covers precisely that question:
“Would Jesus Vote For Trump?” by Doug Giles and Brandon Vallorani.
Would Jesus ever choose someone, with a less than stellar past, to be a leader? Would Jesus be cool with how Trump blasts CNN, The Left, and his feckless ‘compadres’ on The Right? What about Health Care? Would the Great Physician give Trump’s opposition to ObamaCare the ‘two thumbs up?’ Find out in this BEST-SELLER!
