Pelosi to withhold sending articles of impeachment tosenate until fair trial ensured

[Tamorlane]

Clever girl...

Knows the republicans want a speedy acquittal so now she makes them wait. Trump is apparently FUMING and “red in the face.”

WASHINGTON — Minutes after the House voted to impeach President Trump, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) dropped a bombshell: She won’t send the articles of impeachment to the Senate until she feels they’ll get a fair hearing on the other side of Capitol Hill.

“We have legislation approved by the Rules Committee that will enable us to decide how we will send over the articles of impeachment,” Pelosi announced in a Wednesday night press conference. “We cannot name [impeachment] managers until we see what the process is on the Senate side.”

The move could delay a Senate trial — and is a move by House Democratic leaders to try to leverage their power to force Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to make concessions on how the trial will be run.

So the dems create the most unfair rules in the house, and now want to dictate a senate they don’t control?

GTFO.

Anyone cheering this behavior is delusional. We went from ramming an impeachment down our throats because trump is such a national security threat... to sitting on our hands and waiting?

I think they just want to block the senate from interviewing witnesses in the fisa abuse case. Durham won’t finish until at least spring or summer, and the only way to keep that in the public narrative is senate trials, since the msm isn’t interested in a weaponized IC spying illegally on a president.

Democrats just used impeachment as a political weapon. Wow

The fact you support this chit show just shows how mentally unstable you and your cult are

[dabbmw2002]

Is Nancy Pelosi doing everything possible to convince moderates that the process is completely political and lacks any substance? 2020 is gonna a landslide. Thanks Speaker Pelosi!

[LukeLissen]

making it all the more likely this ends with the Supreme Court breaking out the belt against the lunatics

Trump is apparently FUMING and “red in the face.”

damn, whoa, sounds serious dude!!!!!!!1!!

[Ikeman83]

McConnell, "Guess he's not impeached then"

Confirms 12 judges...

[Procta]

she is holding it because she brought the weakest case in history to the jury of the Senate

She’s doing it specifically because members indicated their agenda to acquit him without hearing any evidence as they think it’s all a witch hunt.

Republicans tried to throw a hissy fit like children and Mommy Pelosi just put them in a time out.

Haven’t seen ownage like this in a while

You mean like how the entire house hearing had zero evidence?

And the Democrats indicated their agenda to impeach him from day one. The notion that they're in any position now to try and argue about upholding civility and the constitution after the chit show they've put on over the past few months is laughable and truly takes a low-IQ puppet like you to believe.

The Democrats made the impeachment process a partisan scam, I don't see why Republicans are now required to play fair all of a sudden now that they're in control.

[tripod29]

Just when you thought this whole circus couldn't appear any more politically biased.

[iabs]

Scary times.

First they pass a 100% partisan impeachment in the house and now they want to attempt the same in the Senate.

This is nothing but a coup.

The Democrats are the enemy of the people.

[ClivesTriceps]

top kek, they know it wont pass the senate because of how much more support it garnered for Trump and that a couple Dems are turning red because of this sh!tshow.

Keep America Great

[Vito-C]

Hold onto them indefinitely, it has no impact on the President nor the R’s.

Effectively nullifies the impeachment vote.

The House was supposed to get all the evidence & witness testimony and present their best case to the Senate.

You dont have the jury asking witnesses questions

[BearyManilowe]

Is it a fair trial if it gets thrown out due to lack of evidence? Because this happens a lot in the judiciary.

Just shows the Democrats know theyve got nothing and theyll be proven to have coordinated a partisan effort to invalidate the results of a duly completed election.

Not unlike 2000 when they held up the results until the Florida recounts and still tried to cry foul afterwards. It's becoming a trend for democrats, really.

[~Hades~]

She has no power over the senate. None of the Dems do.

First sexual assault, now impeachment.

I strongly dislike Trump, but will go out and vote against Democrats every time now.

I just got a mod rep

What I post is both stupid and irrelevant

No one cares what i say but I keep posting

[chaunce54]

So Democrats are now trying to DICTATE what the Senate does???


Well, I'm shocked...

Did you see his speech this morning? Guy was blabbering incoherently and looked like a tomato about to burst

WAPO out celebrating

[BuckNakedinBama]

Yet another indication that this political impeachment is nothing but a power grab.

McConnell should schedule the trial. If the Democrats don't show up to put on their case, the case gets dismissed. That's how it works in the rest of America.

"Trump is / wants to be a dictator"

Everything they accuse Trump of...the Democrats are actually doing. Literally everything.
