You don’t even have to be convicted of a crime to lose your job in this constitutional republic if this body determines that your conduct as a public official is clearly out of bounds in your role,”

20 years ago, Graham himself pointed out that a president need not have committed a crime to be impeached.
“It doesn’t have to be a crime,” he repeated last week. “And I’m saying it now: It doesn’t have to be a crime.”
“Our nation is indeed at a crossroads. Will we pursue the search for truth, or will we dodge, weave and evade the truth?
I am of course referring to the investigation into serious allegations of illegal conduct by the president of the United States — that the president has engaged in a persistent pattern and practice of obstruction of justice.
The allegations are grave, the investigation is legitimate, and ascertaining the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the unqualified, unevasive truth is absolutely critical.”
Scott Stantis has once again demonstrated great analysis skills, for a member of the psychopathic malignant narcissist’s cult, that is. Does he know the process has CONTINUALLY INVOLVED PARTICIPATION FROM THE REPUBLICANS!!!!!!!! They have been in the committee rooms. They have be able to question witnesses.
This is tiresome. Having to defend obvious fact and self evident truth is the right job for patriotic Americans. But the regressives lie and cheat so often it has become something of a full time job. It’s like Groundhog Day over, and over, and over, and over and over, and over again.
And then over again. And again… And again… And again.
Supposedly politics is how governments are formed. In the US the form is theoretically DEMOCRACY. You know. Where people choose ethical people to represent them in the government by popular vote? The concept of popular vote took a major hit when the Weasel in the White House took office. The popular vote went to a candidate that wouldn’t have sold our allies down the river for personal gain. Instead a murky institution known as the Electoral College put the Weasel in the White House. Constitutionally the College can do whatever they want (and they did). A few states do require their delegates to the Electoral College to follow the popular vote, but not enough of them.
When the US formed we had a Confederation of strong states and weak central govt. That failed. So our Founders went back and tried something else. A Federal Republic with secondary democracy for a limited few. (The white landed aristocracy who could vote for electors in each state and from there the electors of the state Electoral Colleges voted for president. The vp was the presidential candidate loser.)
Note: if that had failed they would have gone back to the drawing board again. We should be striving for a “more perfect union” just that the two main groups have divergently different views and outcomes they want. One inclusive, the other exclusive.
We have moved toward a more democratic country. With a greater part of the population than was allowed in the early formation of this country. Some don’t like that. A part of our society that like the good old days of racial purity, racial separation, genocide of enemies and an empire’s state of mind.
That antagonism is on fire now. And the minority demand their way and are ready for violence. That must not happen. Even though the Whites in toto still rule most of the USA isn’t enough for them.

Once again:
Ukraine has already settled the matter of abuse of power.
Getting the redacted part of the Mueller report, along with the underlying evidence will settle the obstruction.
Getting the financial records will settle the money laundering, the massive corruption, and the reasons for the Treason.

But your ethical standards don’t have to be that high.

Come inside, the show’s about to start
Guaranteed to blow your head apart
Rest assured you’ll get your money’s worth
The greatest show in Heaven, Hell, or Earth
You’ve got to see the show, it’s a dynamo
You’ve got to see the show, it’s rock and roll
Right before your eyes
We’ll pull laughter from the skies
And he laughs until he criesThen he dies, then he dies
