Unfortunately for you this isn't NAZI Germany.The senate moving forward on removing the President without the articles of impeachment?
Sure...why not. Lol
Glad to see you agree that Trump has not been impeached yet.The senate moving forward on removing the President without the articles of impeachment?
Sure...why not. Lol
My understanding is they will pass a rule "Deeming" the articles transmitted.I would add a Senate Rule that gives the House a finite time period to submit the Articles after passage or the Articles are automatically dismissed. Something like:
"The Articles of Impeachment passed in the House by a majority vote must be submitted to the Senate for trial within 72 hours after passage or said Articles are dismissed, null and void"

Shifty Mitch can try all the rule changes he wants, but a rule change requires 60 votes and that dumb fuck can't get 60 for that!
So, Dimwingers in the Senate don't want to see a trial either.Shifty Mitch can try all the rule changes he wants, but a rule change requires 60 votes and that dumb fuck can't get 60 for that!
Actually both sides "deem" stuff all the time.My understanding is they will pass a rule "Deeming" the articles transmitted.I would add a Senate Rule that gives the House a finite time period to submit the Articles after passage or the Articles are automatically dismissed. Something like:
"The Articles of Impeachment passed in the House by a majority vote must be submitted to the Senate for trial within 72 hours after passage or said Articles are dismissed, null and void"
I don't see how the senate can "deem" the Articles transmitted if the House did NOT transmit them?? That seems way outside the Senate's lane to me.
My way the Senate just says that if not transmitted timely they are void, and that should pass the constitutionality test.
Make that Retroactive which gives a big Middle Finger to The DemNazis who are actively working for Iran, China and Russia.I would add a Senate Rule that gives the House a finite time period to submit the Articles after passage or the Articles are automatically dismissed. Something like:
"The Articles of Impeachment passed in the House by a majority vote must be submitted to the Senate for trial within 72 hours after passage or said Articles are dismissed, null and void"
Totally in their power to do so.
Other than Senate rules, where is it written the Senate must wait for the articles to be delivered to them?The senate moving forward on removing the President without the articles of impeachment?
Sure...why not. Lol
Maybe they should use reconciliation like Obama did with Obamacare....Shifty Mitch can try all the rule changes he wants, but a rule change requires 60 votes and that dumb fuck can't get 60 for that!

The senate, with a simple majority, can overrule the presiding judge.This means the Chief Justice could call what ever witness he likes and can continue to do so unless the Senate decide to close it down. The law overrides any Senate rules...
He possibly could but the Senate can overrule any decisions he makes.Other than Senate rules, where is it written the Senate must wait for the articles to be delivered to them?The senate moving forward on removing the President without the articles of impeachment?

Actually this is a strange one but Chief Justice John Roberts could take it upon himself to conduct the trial...
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.
This means the Chief Justice could call what ever witness he likes and can continue to do so unless the Senate decide to close it down. The law overrides any Senate rules...
Honestly I think a proper trial is what we need and less of the grandstanding from both sides... All the witnesses, if Trump's team want to call Hunter they just have to show relevance to the case, but Roberts agrees so be it... Same rule for evidence and Rudy, Soland.....
Full Transparency with a proper Judge... what's wrong with that...
