Dershowitz: Supreme Court Just
Destroyed 2nd Article of Impeachment

Original Article

Posted By: Trapper, 12/15/2019 12:56:58 PM

Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz pointed out on Friday that the Supreme Court had undercut the Democrats’ second article of impeachment by agreeing to hear three White House appeals against subpoenas. The second article of impeachment passed by the House Judiciary Committee earlier Friday on a party-line vote accuses President Donald Trump of “obstruction of Congress” because he appealed to the courts rather than immediately obeying congressional subpoenas.

Comments:

Pelosi is attempting to establish the House as the supreme branch of government, superior to the presidency and the judiciary, and even the Senate. She said so back in May. A fundamental and unconstitutional change to our form or government.

For as long as I can remember, the democrats have considered whatever branch of government they hold to be the supreme branch. When they had the Senate, with Reid, it was top dog. When they've had the courts, the judiciary is top dog. Now it's the house. If they lose the house, they'll go back to letting their black robed dictators rule.

Per response #1 - - the demonrats have never had to have a majority in any branch of the government. They just rolled over the gutless Pubbies at will. But now - - led by Trump and the Freedom Caucus - - the Pubs are starting to grow a spine. If this keeps up - - some day they may even be classified as vertebrates. And - - as far as Dersh and the vaporization of the second article of impeachment - - L-Dotters became aware of that idea a few days ago - - when I posted it.

Good news. Dershowitz sees things in a high level, intelligent legal context, and that is likely how the Supreme Court will see it, too. Dems, circling the drain with their fraudulent, fake "impeachment" theater.

Can this fraudulent Impeachment be ruled un-Constitutional and rescinded, or will it forever stain the POTUS?

Please try to see Mark Levin's show yesterday when Dershowitz was his guest for the full hour. 2 brilliant lawyers, often on opposite sides politically but in total agreement legally...it was an absolutely riveting show.

It can’t be obstruction or an offense when a person takes an action to defend himself or herself that is constitutional or otherwise legal, as if that happens in this country, all the lawyers will be out of work. Since just about every Democrat politician is also a lawyer, the Democrats by pursuing that line of unconstitutional thought would be shooting themselves in the foot.

ROME — The great takeaway from the coronavirus pandemic is a rejection of borders and walls, Pope Francis told the BBC on Friday morning. “Climate change and the Covid-19 pandemic have exposed our deep vulnerability and raised numerous doubts and concerns about our economic systems and the way we organize our societies,” the pope asserted in a special audio message for the launch of the COP26 Climate Conference. “The most important lesson we can take from these crises is our need to build together, so that there will no longer be any borders, barriers or political walls for us to hide behind,” he declared.

It hasn’t been easy to get to the bottom of the Sackler story. From the beginning, the family hid its business dealings in a tangle of subsidiaries. When reporter Barry Meier blew open the story of OxyContin in 2003 with his book Pain Killer: A Wonder Drug’s Trail of Addiction and Death, the Sacklers convinced his employers at the New York Times to ban him from writing about opioids over a contrived conflict of interest. Depositions have been sealed, whistleblowers intimidated, critics bought off, publications threatened with lawsuits.

President Biden said that Pope Francis, during their meeting Friday in Vatican City, told him that he should continue to receive communion, amid heightened scrutiny of the Catholic president's pro-abortion policies. The president, following the approximately 90-minute-long meeting, a key part of his trip to Italy for the G20, told reporters details of their discussions. Biden said that Francis told him that he should keep receiving communion.

"We just talked about the fact that he was happy I'm a good Catholic," Biden said.
New Fox Poll Explains Stunning Reversal:

There’s been a major shift when it comes to the governor’s race in Virginia over the past two weeks. As we reported earlier, now the Real Clear Politics average of polls is showing Youngkin ahead of Terry McAuliffe for the first time just a few short days before the election. That’s in part due to a stunning Fox poll which shows Youngkin up over McAuliffe by eight percent. As Fox notes, that’s basically a complete reversal of the race from two weeks ago. It was 51-46% with McAuliffe up two weeks ago. Now, however, it’s Youngkin up, 53-45% among likely voters. That’s a stunning move within two weeks

Former Vice President Al Gore called on the world to "say goodbye to coal, oil and gas" to fight climate change in a video released Friday ahead of the upcoming UN COP 26 global warming conference. Oil, gas and coal are the source of 79% of U.S. energy consumption, according to the latest data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Nuclear energy provides 9% of U.S. energy, while renewable energy accounts for 12%. Gore called on public and private sector leaders to "get real" about immediately reducing greenhouse gas emissions and about moving away from fossil fuels to "clean" energy.

Early indications show the 2024 presidential election cycle could see a dramatic face-off between former President Donald Trump and his ex-deputy Mike Pence. The former vice president fueled speculation that he's launching a White House bid in 2024 on Thursday when he delivered a speech championing 'educational freedom' at a small conservative college in Loudoun County, Virginia. Trump remains a polarizing but dominant figure in Republican politics. A recent Morning Consult poll shows that a majority of GOP voters - 67 percent - want him to run for a second term.

JFK's assassin Lee Harvey Oswald trained at a secret CIA camp preparing for an invasion of Cuba, the son of his alleged sniper teacher said. But Ricardo Morales Jr said that trainer—his dad Ricardo Sr—insisted after the November 1963 assassination that there was no way Oswald had the marksmanship to pull off the murder, further bolstering conspiracy theories over the doomed president's death. Morales Jr., 58, of Michigan, told Miami's Actualidad Radio that his father was a contract CIA worker, anti-Castro militant, counter-intelligence chief for Venezuela, FBI informant and drug dealer. Morales Sr went by the nickname 'Monkey', and was among the FBI's most infamous informants.

A declassified US intelligence report has concluded COVID wasn't developed as a biological weapon—but conceded that coronavirus may well have emerged from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The paper issued by the Director of National Intelligence on Friday elaborates on findings released in August of a 90-day review ordered by President Joe Biden. That review said that U.S. intelligence agencies were divided on the origins of the virus, but that analysts do not believe the virus was developed as a bioweapon, and that most agencies believe the virus was not genetically engineered.(Snip)They added that China's continued obfuscation over COVID—including allegations that the United States itself is responsible
