Jerry Nadler Calls for the immediate impeachment of the President

Judiciary Chair Jerry Nadler plans to spend his final days impeaching President Trump. He is calling for his “immediate” impeachment. Instead of that, why doesn’t he spend his time trying to get blue state leaders to dispense the COVID vaccine.

The only point to this is to be hateful. There is no other point.

Washington, D.C. – Today, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) issued the following statement:

“I support the immediate impeachment of the President and his removal from office.

“Since taking office, President Trump had encouraged violence against the citizens of this country whenever it serves his selfish interests—when white supremacists marched on Charlottesville, when he forcibly removed peaceful protesters from Lafayette Square, when he told the Proud Boys to ‘stand back and stand by,’ when gunmen stormed the Michigan State Capitol, and yesterday when he ordered his supporters to ‘walk down to the Capitol.’

“In selfish refusal to accept his electoral defeat, President Trump only ratcheted up his rhetoric.  His supporters were told to reject the results of the election.  They were told to be strong. They were told to stand by. The President called his supporters to Washington, D.C. and told them to go to the Capitol itself.  Unsurprisingly, these seditious calls to action by a desperate man and his allies achieved their intended result—violent insurrection.  Donald Trump lit the match, and his allies and enablers fanned the flames of rebellion.

“What this country endured yesterday was beyond intolerable.  Domestic terrorists stormed the Capitol, breached the Senate Chamber, waved Confederate flags in the halls of democracy, and disrupted the operations of the House and the Senate as they worked to ratify the election that President Trump tried so hard to undermine.  Members of Congress hid under chairs, wearing gas masks, and were ushered from room to room by armed guards trying to ensure their safety.

“In the wake of this deadly attack on the Capitol, in the face of this insurrection, we must act.  There must be consequences.  Those consequences must be commensurate with the offense, and they must begin with the President of the United States.

“We on the House Judiciary Committee have a long record of seeking accountability for this President.  We have worked to expose his lies and oppose his horrendous policies.  We introduced articles of impeachment, held hearings on them, brought them to the floor, and helped pass them in the House of Representatives.  As an impeachment manager, I beseeched the Senate to convict Donald Trump and remove him from office before he could do further harm to the country.

“No one feels worse than I do that those efforts did not result in President Trump’s removal from office.  But I have not given up.  I have called upon the Vice President to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove the President from office because he is unfit to serve.  And now, I am once again urging that the President be impeached and removed from office.  We have a limited period of time in which to act.  The nation cannot afford a lengthy, drawn out process, and I support bringing articles of impeachment directly to the House floor.”

It seems like it Just Might Happen. Evidently Sasse is on board. I hadn’t considered it but the case could continue even after the inauguration. It would result in Trump not being allowed to run for another election. There are many Republicans with their eyes on the prize, the same as in 2016. With Trump out of the picture it gives them a “fighting chance”. No doubt these charlatans believe once Trump is gone they can return to the pre-Tea Party era. We know this from McConnell’s history. He really believes any loss is because of Trump, but any win is in and of themselves, facts notwithstanding. If they really believe the MAGA crowd will stand for this they are sadly mistaken. What they haven’t considered is The Donald “may” be gone but there IS The Donald JR. He would be an even More formidable foe because he doesn’t have the brash characteristics they think his father does. Also, it’s a Good way to have MAGA vote democrat, Just For Spite.

This sentiment is nothing more then a political ploy to tarnish and ruin this man to the point that he won’t run in 2024. These swamp dwellers are terrified that they will be exposed. And now that they have complete control of the government we will see nothing on the Biden/China corruption. These are despicable sub-human low lifes.

You have to give credit where credit is due. Trump has managed to expose the entire Democrat party and their true colors, uncontrollable fury and rage. You just cannot, even as a President, interfere with the money that flows in Washington. Everyone has known for a long time about the corruption in Washington, and especially Congress, but no one expected it to be so entrenched that it is Literally impossible to clean out. You have already seen the fruits of that with Businesses, no less, coming out and condemning what happened in Washington. They know and realize they are at the mercy of the overlords and better to be on the side of power, and power in DC is All About Money. Lobbying is just another word for bribery and in some cases, money laundering. In the end they must really fear what he might do within two weeks. What is it, does the NSA have a database on all the Congress. It’s beginning to look like something.

My goodness! The Democrat Party is all about unity and coming together, isn’t it.

Such lying, hypocrites they are! Every one of them…hateful, vindictive LIARS!

Pelosi and Schumer are at the top of the list.

Watch out folks! The children are in charge now!
