US Constitution, Article I, Section 3

[TriggerJerk!]

It seems pretty clear to me. But apparently some of our elected officials are having trouble with these paragraphs. You decide.


“The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.

Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.”

Neguse's reliance on the Duke article is not misplaced. Indeed, if my views of 21 years ago are going to be cited as "recent", I would at least appreciate the use of my thinner photos from the 1990s. https://t.co/cHh80XGmQQ

none of it means anything since they are not following the law while bringing up false charges again .... funny enough are they ever going to bring up charges on there own breaking , laws , rules or anything else or is that still only a game for them to skirt around while they do what ever they want . hell treason is a capitol offence and the dims did just that to overthrow a sitting us president then turned around and blamed him for there crimes for 4 years . the trans scripts of his speech in Washington all show he said none of the things the dims are accusing him of saying yet they are still pushing a trial . but i know the dims will never have to answer for anything they did or do any crime or any act they may commit is all ok under the now in charge communist party .

Not even the Supreme Court is concerned with the Constitution and you expect that Dumocrats are?

Two tiered justice system (Haves vs. Have-Not's). The only reason they want to try and make this stick, is so, Trump can't be elected again and I think he could. 75 Million people said it could happen, but, the Deep State (Dips & Rino's), had other plans. They all had to take the Constitutional Oath, but damn if they can follow it. Mac

The part about disqualified to hold office is what they're after.

You have to remember, Trump is not and was not a political career president. All he wanted to do was make this country What It once was and that absolutely terrifies The Establishment, both sides.

Think of it this way. If you're guilty of murder and somebody you hate is guilty of hiding the body of said murder, you and your enemy are going to work together to silence the people that have evidence against both of you

You will find that this is an exercise in futility. I can't imagine even the Demwits being able to keep a straight face during the proceedings.

 

[Douglas-001]

Good grief man! When will you people learn....? Those worthless goons in D puke C do NOT follow any part of the US Constitution. To them, it does not exist...so why should they follow it....? To them it does not exist....so why should they follow it...? To them it does not exist....

 

[10ring'r]

Well, the votes in.....they are going to press on with it and to my calculations, 6 RINO's voted for it. Mac

 

[Bender]

They don’t fear anything. We need to change that.

 

[HiDesertELR]

Government...​

of the people
by the people
for the people

Nope, they don't care, and they don't care if you know they don't care.

Hubris on full display.

We let this happen.

 

[HousePlant]

I love it when Democrats state things like "we must follow/protect/honor" the Constitution but stampede all over the 2nd Amendment... just tickles me.

 

[DarnYankeeUSMC]

They have put up fences guarded by soldiers.

They don’t fear anything. We need to change that.

 

[Not a Sniper]

All Dog and Pony show so far IMO.

They wanna dance on their toes and play Fuck Around Ballerinas. I wanna see if'n someone rolls that Constitution up and raps 'em on their noses. That will prompt the next scene.

It is early days in all this. Hopefully very short lived.

Reckon only some time will tell though.

Saddest shit I've seen in half a century.

 

[TriggerJerk!]

No. They will do anything to get what they want.

But I did intend for this thread to serve as a very clear, and exceptionally simple example of the group in power ignoring our constitution. My point being:

• There is clearly two tiers of justice. One for progressives/fascists and one for everyone else.
• They assume “the end justifies the means” at all times, and therefore will ignore or challenge any and every law, statute, and even rights granted to individuals that supercede governmental jurisdictions (i.e., The Bill of Rights).

They have no qualms doing whatever is most convenient to achieve their goals, and will have the MSM working to convince you that their actions are just and in your best interest.

Q.E.D. That which has been demonstrated....

 

[The D]

How many creatures in dc do you think know where a copy, in any form, of the constitution is?

 

[TriggerJerk!]

From the look of things, not many @The D

 

[tomcatmv]

I fear more bad things are in store. The media and the dems are running everything. We will for sure have $5/gallon gas in no time and your power bill will shock you (no pun intended). But Iran will get bazillions of $ and a new nuclear agreement and China gets a pass on South China sea, Hong Kong, Taiwan aggression, etc.

 

[Srgt. Hulka]

My POS republican Senator committed political suicide yesterday. He voted to continue on with the impeachment trial. The people in Louisiana are frikkin livid over this dumbass decision. Bill Cassidy is a politically dead man walking.

 

[HeavyAssault]

Get the right Congress and President in place ....JUST maybe we can ring that bell for the other team. Just think of HOW many heads would roll then.

How? Are we gonna vote them out? Hahahaha

 

[SEMO Shooter]

If the Dims are successful with this impeachment, they will set a precedent that will bite them on the ass. It will allow for any of their past presidents, or vice presidents to be impeached as well.

 

[seanh]

I don't think you understand. The Democrats on the judges, the police, the voting system... There's no way to get it back now

 

[BullGear]

I don't think you understand. The Democrats on the judges, the police, the voting system... There's no way to get it back now

Yes there is.......

 

[seanh]

I'd like to hear this one. The only way I know of requires a few million strong Constitution, strong backbone, strong-willed people... Willing to give up family, home, possessions Etc... not going to happen

 

[BullGear]

You said there was no way. I said there was. You mentioned a possibility. Therefore I proved my point.

i think Gen Flynn could stand up in Texas and ask for a million men. They would come, some may be a little long in the tooth, but make no mistake, they would come

this country will never change thru the ballot box. This year has proven that if u open ur eyes

A few of them were actually crying. Now they have NG posted, we are fucked.

Do those NG troops have their Barney Fife bullet in their pocket? How many of them would smack that mag into their rifle and pull back on that charging handle??? I doubt many would.

One would hope and pray not. With conservative Pentagon appointees being pushed out, no idiocy would surprise me today.

[BullGear]

Lets just ask the question, so that can prepare for the next round of "We hate Trump".

This impeachment trial goes to the jury and they do not get the votes to convict.

WHAT DO THE DEMWITS DO NEXT?

You know they are scared to death of a reemergence of Trump and his supporters. What lamebrain concoction will they come up with to try again to bring Trump down. I know the AG in Georgia is opening a criminal investigation about Trump's phone call. That's another loser for them. I know NYC is trying to open up some kind of investigation. Not sure what that's about, so I'm not sure. But Federally, do you think this is the end or just the end of the beginning?

 

[TriggerJerk!]

I think it is just the beginning. The are in glide mode, and will only pass bills that are cued up by the party. So they have a lot of “free time” to sling mud and pursue Trump in court. They will stack the courts and deal as much damage as possible, while trying to pass mail in voting and restricting 2A. The remainder of their time will be spent building their party war chest to solidify gains and pick out weak candidates to attack in the next election.

So basically they have an opportunity and are going to use it as far as they can. That’s why the NG are in DC. They know they are going to do very unpopular things, and have planned ahead.

 

[Not a Sniper]

As an alternative-I don't think they stack shit.

It is a very narrow margin they control. Right now.

I am gonna bet they cannot do the destruction we assume-without some help.

If SCOTUS does not do what I'd expect, it could be on. I am not panicked yet though. I know it looks shady, but there is still legal shit to wade through. I need to see it to believe it is where I am at.

Just sayin'.

 

[TriggerJerk!]

If you have Senators and Congressmen in your state that are not supporting your citizens and our constitution, then start looking for their replacement right now!

Similarly, plan on mail in voting. Get people together, form get out the vote groups, be prepared to gather mail in ballots.

Finally...resist every time you get an opportunity. When they do something dumb, tell people why it is dumb. Tell people they should want jobs, not handouts. Tell people that >51% pay no federal taxes, and are being carried by the rest of us. Tell them fewer jobs and more handouts devalues our dollar, and makes our savings worth less. Tell your elected officials to do what is right for the community, not what is politically correct.
Tell them you want paper ballots, and voters to show an ID to vote. And no more computerized voting machines, lets use paper.

Finally, don’t act like progressives. Be nice, be kind, even to them. But be firm, and let them know you are not afraid. When they do something stupid, burn up the phone lines, bury them in email, and fill their mailboxes with letters. Aways have a plan, communicate with your group, and work together.

 

[Rthur]

I wonder if they considered that many of the citizens/voters were scared/cowering
When their crew , aunt tifa, we're beating, intimidating, burning, spitting , OC spraying
lynching folks all summer long?
I'd think this question would/should be brought up while they are lying about what building they were in.

Locally, I'm in a Socialist governed state. Maryland is known as California East for good reason. Many of our laws are more strict than CA. We have most of the state except Baltimore City and the counties that surround DC. Because of their density we, cannot win the battle. The state legislature has made it known that they will be anti cop, anti 2A and pro tax. There are so many Bills right now that I've written testimony against, It's as big as a novel. We get hit with a double barrel because the Senate and House will submit almost the same Bill in each house, so in order to testify, you need to write it twice. The Bills are just different enough that you can't use one for the other, you actually have to write almost 2 complete testimonies.
