Just out of curiosity, how long does it take to draft Articles of Impeachment and initiate the process? I didn't live through the Nixon debacle but I believe it took a couple of years, didn't it?
The decision-to-do-it part takes awhile (probably forever, if Ryan keeps his job). The actual drafting shouldn't need more than few days. barfo
The long part is getting the leadership in the House to agree to do it. Ain't going to happen. Then it's pointless unless the Senate can agree to convict. Ain't going to happen.
If they did it with the evidence they have now, which is none. That would be difficult to explain to all the people that elected Trump. The same people they need to elect them next time around. Not many would risk it. I am sure Maxine Waters would, perhaps a few more that feel safe.
This is a rare point where I agree with you. Trump is safe from impeachment proceedings until/unless Mueller issues his report, and also until/unless the Republicans no longer control the House. barfo
Whoever told him #6 was a good choice should be taken behind the barber shop and dunked in the blue liquid they used to clean the combs.
Some of the accusations in the memo are actual crimes. It is perjury, for example, to omit relevant information in the FISA application. That it was paid for by Democrats. That the author was out to get Trump. That it was not verified. Without using the dossier, the odds of getting the FISA warrant were 50-50, or so I've read. That's something, when the odds of getting FISA warrants is over 99%, historically. Comey lied under oath in testimony before congress. He was directly asked if he had come to his conclusion not to prosecute the criminal democratic candidate before interviewing her and he said, "no." There is a lot of evidence in the public record that he wrote his decision before she was interviewed. Rather obvious outright proof of perjury.

Sure. And if that person that hired him then fires him, there'd be hell to pay. The sensible solution would be a 2nd Special Counsel who doesn't report to anyone he's investigating.
It seems to me that Comey lied to Congress in the above reference. Hell he signed one of the Fisa documents. Whether it is a bogus request or not, he knew about it. Trump's people were wiretapped and he signed the damn request to get it done. I think Rosenstein is in the same club.
Schiff is truly a clown. https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018...ads-promote-2nd-amendment-so-we-all-kill-each Schiff's Latest Bizarre Claim: Russian Ads Promote 2nd Amendment "So We All Kill Each Other" The Second Amendment (Amendment II) to the United States Constitution protects the right of the people to keep and bear arms... and,as The Duran's Alex Christoforou writes,according to California Congressman Adam Schiff, those pesky Russians are using bots to promote the second amendment with an ultimate goal of having Americans ‘kill each other.’ Once again, another brilliant plan hatched by Putin... good thing Schiff caught on to it and can now begin seizing American’s guns so as to thwart Russia’s evil plan. On Thursday Democrat Schiff spoke to a crowd at the University of Pennsylvania, where the TDS –‘Russia hysteria virus’ infected Schiff told the crowd Russian ads promoted the Second Amendment during the 2016 election “so we will kill each other.” Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Thursday that Russia promoted content that supported the Second Amendment on social media during the 2016 election because they wanted Americans to kill one another. “You had the content that was clearly anti-Hillary, and you had the content that was very pro-Trump.But even the bigger quantity of content that was being pushed through social media was just content designed to pit us against each other,” Schiff said while speaking at the University of Pennsylvania. Which is false! Facebook executive Colin Stretch told the US Senate Judiciary Committee in November that the total number of those illegitimate ads are a drop in the ocean — less than 0.004 percent of all content — or about 1 in 23,000 news feed items. Russia didn’t flip the election.
Aw come on Denny! That's not fair! Schiff reaches around much like Sly. Come to think of it his logic reminds me much of both Sly and barf.
