It Begins – Senate Leader Mitch McConnell Receives Articles of Impeachment and Structures Schedule

CTH:

Sickening.  Earlier today Speaker Nancy Pelosi held a media event signing ceremony complete with commemorative pens for dozens of her Democrat colleagues, and initiated the parade ceremony for the march across the Capitol with the articles.  Upon arrival at the upper chamber of congress, Senate Leader Mitch McConnell accepted delivery and began the process of organizing the procedure through a series of rules by unanimous consent.

[McConnell] “A few minutes ago, the Senate was notified the House of Representatives is finally ready to proceed with their articles of impeachment. So, by unanimous consent, we’ve just laid some of the groundwork that will structure the next several days.”

  • We have officially invited the House managers to come to the Senate tomorrow at noon to exhibit their articles of impeachment.
  • Then, later tomorrow afternoon at 2:00pm, the Chief Justice of the United States will arrive here in the Senate. He will be sworn in by the President Pro Tem, Senator Grassley.
  • Then the Chief Justice will swear in all of us senators. We will pledge to rise above petty factionalism and do justice for our institutions, for our states, and for the nation.
  • And then we will formally notify the White House of our pending trial and summon the President to answer the articles and send his counsel.

‘So the trial will commence in earnest on Tuesday.

‘But first, Mr. President, some important good news for the country: ‘We anticipate the Senate will finish the USMCA tomorrow and send this landmark trade deal to President Trump for his signature. A major victory for this administration, but more importantly, for American families.

‘Let me close with this. This is a difficult time for our country. But this is precisely the kind of time for which the framers created the Senate. I am confident this body can rise above short-termism and factional fever and serve the long-term best interests of our nation.

‘We can do this. And we must.’ MORE

  2. The dimwits hate this country including putting a Kenyan in the Whitehouse hoping to destroy America through spending. When President Trump got elected, they threw another hissy fit. They have done nothing for 3 years.
    Hang every damn one of them for Treason!

  5. Pelosi, Schiff and Nadler, et al, would be nothing without the complicit, treasonous media propping them up. The state-owned “mainstream media” are the number one enemy of freedom and democracy. The media’s power and influence are far greater than the pathetic little pawns who do their bidding.

  8. I wouldn’t freak out too much. Cocaine Mitch wants to be re-elected, BADLY. Trump is his ticket.
    He can see the polls, he can see the tons of attendees at Trump rallies (A lot of them are pro-Trump Dems).
    Mitch isn’t going to fuck himself over. lol.

  10. Brown Eyed Girl – I don’t either, but as I said. They’re self-serving and they can’t afford getting thrown out of office.
    The R’s need the Conservative voters more than they need the dem voters. The dems won’t vote for R down ticket no matter what.

  12. *yawn*

    History will remember pelosi as a raging asshole desperate to cover up the greatest treason and fraud in US history by obama, biden, kerry, pelosi and the rest of the gang, including the likes of romney.

  13. When Pelosi drops dead and goes straight to hell, they’re going to have to build something like the Eiffel tower to accommodate all those who’ll want to drop a deuce on her grave.

  17. We’ll see what happens.

    The rinos are just following orders. They don’t give a damn. They can hide out at boeing or where-ever else gov fugups go. Their sons and daughters will still get sweet shady deals. All they have to do is follow orders.

    Those figups can later come back on the scene like nothing ever happened. Media will cover them.

  18. The articles should be dismissed for failure
    to state a cause of action.

    The smellocrats can appeal, but

    It would put tremendous pressure
    on the Supreme Court

    Would they actually rule that an
    impeachment trial may proceed w/o
    a cause of action and not even claiming
    a ” high crime ” nor misdemeanor
    in the articles.

    I don’t think they would because the
    precedent would become that anyone could
    be summarily dismissed for mere
    unpopularity.

    And remember our greatest president

    Abraham Lincoln

    was extremely unpopular both north and south.
