"That is a Senate rule not a law... So it could be said the Senate are giving themselves powers which is not given to them under law..."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?
Sure...why not. Lol
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...

It is a tricky one but constitution seems to give the Justice power over the trial rather than the Senate.
Generally like in the Clinton case there was an agreement to how the trial is going to be run from both sides but this time Mitch has said he will do what the White House wants and negated his oath as being as impartial juror. Chief Justice could leverage his power too and hold them to the constitution.
Is your vacation the excuse you are using for claiming the impeachment vote was "UNANIMOUS"?Show us your rants against the disrespect the House Democrats displayed for the Constitution in their sham of an impeachment inquiry/investigation.What a lazy, shit reply. Did the sentence "Unfortunately, we both know this likely won't happen as both parties want to do whatever the fuck they want." escape you? Did you require a 4-page dissertation? For fuck's sake.If that were the case you;d rant on and on about the disrespect the House Democrats displayed for the Constitution in their sham of an impeachment inquiry/investigation.
1. I was on vacation through most of December.
2. I've made no comments here about the tone of the Impeachment proceedings
Besides, what difference would my denigrating the House Democrats' shit show do for you? Salve for your butt hurt? Get a grip, snowflake.
You are correct. Trump isn't impeached until Waldo Pelousy shuffles over to the Senate with her clusterfuck impeachment papers.Doesn’t actually work like thatMy 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"
Mitch is a stickler for procedure. He built his career on it

No, that could bot bd said because it is a power given to the Senate under the law...
Article I, Section 3, paragraph 6
The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments.
Could you explain what the Democrats did that was unconstitutional?
Quote the law please...
I guess one of the talk radio dweebs is peddling that the Senate could act unilaterally. The OPcouldnt have come up with this on his own.
Which is exactly what the Senate is contemplating. Pretty much makes an ass of all the lunatics rambling about how they think Impeached Trump isn't impeached.If Trump has been impeached, the Senate can hold a trial any time it wants - and only need change its rules to do so.I don't think they could have a trial.... and thus, the Senate can hold the trial any time it wants, regardless of what Pelosi does.Trumpybear has been Impeached....If Trump has been impeached, the Senate can hold a trial any time it wants.What time limit, if any, does the Constitution set for transmitting Articles of Impeachment to the Senate?
Kind of like never holding a hearing on a Presidents SC nominee?
If the senate cannot hold a Trial, then Trump has not been impeached.
Pick one.
Thank you
"Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell...... said on Friday the Senate cannot proceed with a trial under its rules until it receives them."
Regardless of what Pelosi does.

No trial, no impeachment.
They cannot un-impeach him. He has been impeached. Furthermore under current rules they can't have a trial with out the House transmitting the articles. If that's what they want to do they have to change the rules of the Senate.
Until it gets to the Senate to try, there is no impeachment.
Constitutional Amendment ProcessGee, perhaps this sort of thing should be written into the Constitution so party hacks like Pelosi, Ryan. McConnell, Reid, etc...can’t pull this sort of crap?
What next? In a few years A senate that starts removal from office proceedings without the House being in session?

You're such an imbecile. But you are anusing. As I told you the other day, and McConnell is considering now, it's only Senate rules that are preventing the Senate from starting the trial.

All the Senate needs to do is just change their rules so that transmission is not necessary. All that is is a senate rule anyway and not a constitutional requirement.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.
