Stephanopoulos to Schiff: If what Trump said was so bad, why make up dialogue?   Ed Morrissey    September 30, 2019

Kudos to George Stephanopoulos for asking the obvious question after last week’s stunt at the House Intelligence Committee — although Adam Schiff seemed surprised by it. “If the facts are as damning as you say,” ABC’s This Week host asked, “why make up dialog for dramatic effect, even if it’s a parody, as you say?”

Schiff never gets around to actually answering that question, nor does he have one for another of Stephanopoulos’ questions (via Twitchy).

DELUSIONAL: Pelosi Compares Impeachment Coup Against President Trump to American Revolution      

By

Shane Trejo

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) continues her descent into madness, and has actually compared her party’s coup attempt against President Trump to the patriots that waged the American Revolution.

“And as you’ve heard me say over and over again, the dark days of the revolution Thomas Paine said, ‘The times have found us.’ We think the times have found us now,” Pelosi said, making her belabored comparison.

Andrew C McCarthy has a brilliant legal mind.

What is portrayed as an “impeachment inquiry” is actually just a made-for-cable-TV political soap opera. The House of Representatives is not conducting a formal impeachment inquiry. To the contrary, congressional Democrats are conducting the 2020 political campaign.

The House has not voted as a body to authorize an impeachment inquiry. What we have are partisan theatrics, proceeding under the ipse dixit of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). It raises the profile, but not the legitimacy, of the same “impeachment inquiry” House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) previously tried to abracadabra into being without a committee vote.

Moreover, there are no subpoenas. As Secretary Pompeo observed in his fittingly tart response on Tuesday, what the committee chairmen issued was merely a letter. Its huffing and puffing notwithstanding, the letter is nothing more than an informal request for voluntary cooperation. Legally, it has no compulsive power. If anything, it is rife with legal deficiencies.

Ms Nancy thinks she is being clever...

Ignore the hype — this is not an impeachment inquiry

DOH! Did You Know There’s a Treaty Between the USA & Ukraine Regarding Cooperation For Prosecuting Crimes?
Posted on September 25, 2019 by DCWhispers
My goodness. It was passed when Joe Biden was a member of the U.S. Senate and then signed by then-President Bill Clinton.

A comprehensive treaty agreement that allows cooperation between both the United States and Ukraine in the investigation and prosecution of crimes.

It appears President Trump was following the law to the letter when it comes to unearthing the long-standing corruption that has swirled in Ukraine and allegedly involves powerful Democrats like Joe Biden and others.

“To the Senate of the United States: With a view to receiving the advice and consent of the Senate to ratification, I transmit herewith the Treaty Between the United States of America and Ukraine on Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters with Annex, signed at Kiev on July 22, 1998. I transmit also, for the information of the Senate, an exchange of notes which was signed on September 30, 1999, which provides for its provisional application, as well as the report of the Department of State with respect to the Treaty. The Treaty is one of a series of modern mutual legal assistance treaties being negotiated by the United States in order to counter criminal activities more effectively. The Treaty should be an effective tool to assist in the prosecution of a wide variety of crimes, including drug trafficking offenses. The Treaty is self-executing. It provides for a broad range of cooperation in criminal matters. Mutual assistance available under the Treaty includes: taking of testimony or statements of persons; providing documents, records, and articles of evidence; serving documents; locating or identifying persons; transferring persons in custody for testimony or other purposes; executing requests for searches and seizures; assisting in proceedings related to restraint, confiscation, forfeiture of assets, restitution, and collection of fines; and any other form of assistance not prohibited by the laws of the requested state. I recommend that the Senate give early and favorable consideration to the Treaty and give its advice and consent to ratification.”

WILLIAM J. CLINTON.

Trump suggests Schiff be arrested for treason for exaggerating call with Ukraine      Brett Samuels 

President Trump on Monday suggested House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) be arrested for treason, a crime punishable by death or prison time, for exaggerating parts of the
president's call with Ukraine's leader.

In a series of morning tweets, Trump ripped Schiff and the anonymous whistleblower who raised concerns about Trump's conduct on the call with the president of Ukraine, the latter of which has accelerated a Democratic impeachment inquiry into Trump.

"Rep. Adam Schiff illegally made up a FAKE & terrible statement, pretended it to be mine as the most important part of my call to the Ukrainian President, and read it aloud to Congress and the American people," Trump tweeted. "It bore NO relationship to what I said on the call. Arrest for Treason?"

Clinton snarks at Giuliani: 'Yes, I am famously under-scruntinized'    By Abbey Marshall

Hillary Clinton sparred with Rudy Giuliani after the personal attorney to Donald Trump deflected accusations of his potentially inappropriate involvement in the Ukraine scandal that has engulfed the Trump presidency. 

“(The Washington Post), NBC, and CNN are going after me because I’m the messenger, and covering up the message, Dem corruption,” Giuliani tweeted on Tuesday afternoon. “Meanwhile, they have yet to ask Biden difficult questions because he is protected and immune like the Clintons and crooked Clinton Foundation!”

The tweet came after Giuliani was issued a subpoena Monday as part of House Democrats’ rapidly intensifying impeachment inquiry into Trump's attempts to pressure Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden and his son. This week, the outspoken attorney lawyered up, tapping former Watergate prosecutor and assistant U.S. attorney Jon Sale.

Clinton quote-tweeted Giuliani’s statement and jested, “Yes, I am famously under-scrutinized.”

Rep. Adam Schiff Linked to Prominent Ukrainian Arms Dealer!

Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff is connected to a Ukrainian arms dealer. Is this why he’s willing to lie in front of the nation when accusing President Trump of crimes?

Adam Schiff is arguably the biggest liar in Congress…. ever. He now leads the House Intelligence Committee and this past week oversaw the Intel Committee where he attempted to align President Trump with some ‘trumped’ up allegations concerning his phone call with the President of the Ukraine. Schiff lied in his opening remarks and claimed numerous falsehoods about the President’s call in spite of the transcript being provided the day before.

His entire description of the President’s call was a lie – we have the transcript and this was not in it!

Could Impeachment Be Part Of Trump's Plan To Entrap Joe Biden? 2019-09-25 by: TTN Staff 

With the release of the transcript of Trump's phone call with the President of Ukraine in which he prodded him to investigate Hunter Biden's corrupt dealings talk of impeachment is in the air, especially among unhinged House Democrats, who refuse to let facts get in the way of their bizarre blood crusade against the President.

But there is a strong possiblity that the Democrats' impeachment obsession may come back to bite them in the end, and could actually be part of Trump's grand plan to destroy Joe Biden once and for all.

If one actually reads the rules for a Senate impeachment trial (which can be found here), in particular sections 105 and 106, you can see that during such a trial the Senate will have full authority to call whatever witnesses it sees fit.

The big problem for the Democrats is that this is almost certain to include Democrat Presidential frontrunner Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden, and force them to go on the record and provide all documents relating to their corrupt buisness dealings in Ukraine.

This could turn into a massive disaster for the Democrat party, as not only do they not have any meaningful evidence that the President committed 'high crimes and misdemeanors' but they also don't have the votes in the Senate to convict and remove the President.  However if they hold an impeachment trial anyway, which seems what much of their radical base wants to do, they will destroy their only potentially electable Presidential candidate in Joe Biden by having his family's corruption exposed to the entire country.

No doubt President Trump knows this and has skillfully baited an unhinged and radical Democrat party into potentially making a fatal mistake. 

No one in Washington seems to care..... what Joe and Hunter Biden did in the Ukraine or when U.S. Senators Robert Menendez (D-NJ), Dick Durbin (D-IL), and Patrick Leahy (D-VT) did when they wrote to the government of the Ukraine and Demanded It Investigate Trump....They only care about "getting RID of President Trump".....

Wherever Joe Biden went, son Hunter cashed in

By David Harsanyi   September 26, 2019 

In a now notorious July 25 conversation, President Trump asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to “look into” Ukraine’s role in efforts to interfere in the 2016 election as well as the dealings of Joe ­Biden and his son Hunter with the notoriously corrupt country.

Whether or not Trump’s ham-fisted conversation with Zelensky rises to an impeachable offense, the American people have legitimate reasons to be curious about both issues — and especially the Biden family’s blatant conflicts of interest abroad as Joe Biden seeks the presidency.

Biden has been leading the Democratic field. The central case for his candidacy rests on the supposedly exemplary work he did as a senior member of Team Obama. Well, in 2016, acting as the Obama administration’s point man in Ukraine, the vice president — unlike Trump — openly threatened to withhold $1 billion in American loan guarantees if the embattled nation didn’t fire the country’s top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin.
