The House vote on Impeaching Trump may be the stake through the heart of the Democratic Party. Most of the people newly elected were extremely left and they remain vulnerable when they barely made it to Congress, like AOC. This will be a test for the moderates v the extremists and if the moderates vote on party lines rather than the facts, many will be putting their own seats in jeopardy come 2020. Those in favor of impeachment come in at 4.5% and 45.8% of Americans favor removing him from office. It is a very heated debate in the Democratic party.
When the Republicans impeached Bill Clinton, it did not go well for them Newt Gingrich who championed the impeachment lost his seat. What is clear is that Trump would not be removed from office. He may even test the claims before the Supreme Court. Here we have Obama and Biden using the FBI to investigate Trump during the election. This can be a major blow to the Democratic Party which goes a long way to splitting the party.
CNN Theft of IMF Money – Sep. 1, 1999
It was the Clintons foe gave the wink and the nod to the bankers who set out to take over Russia by blackmailing Yeltsin with the $7 billion they got him to take from the IMF loans and divert to Geneva through Bank of New York. Indeed, CNN reported the money was taken from the IMF and only sanitized their reporting to protect the Clintons later by dropping any reference to the IMF. Yeltsin turned to Putin August 9th, 1999 when he realized he was set up by the New York Bankers and thus Putin knew full well Hillary had given the wink and the nod.
Congress is well aware of the U.S. banker’s attempt to interfere in the Russian elections and passed a resolution prohibiting any American to be questioned by Russians for they knew full well that they had dirty hands. When someone is guilty, they typically blame someone else. That seems to be why the Democrats have preferred to restart the cold war because Hillary was defeated.
In the complaint used by the Democrats for impeachment, the claimed whistleblower is protected and that does not comport with Due Process of Law. In a Trial, that person will be called to testify. If the Democrats try to withhold that, I would suspect it will go to the Supreme Court. You have an absolute right to face your accuser in a democracy. This protected whistleblower said they did not understand Trump’s request that Ukraine locates and turn over a server used by the DNC during the 2016 presidential election. He defends the Democrats and claims it was subsequently examined by CrowdStrike, a U.S. cybersecurity firm. Then-FBI Director James Comey stated that the DNC had denied the FBI’s requests to examine the breached servers. Comey then said at the time that the FBI and DNC agreed to let the private firm CrowdStrike access the servers and share the findings with investigators. That is completely insane. So the FBI would allow a private company to investigate someone and then indict that person without ever verifying the investigation itself?
Honestly, there are many questions that would rise to the Supreme Court for this will be the trial of the century. They cannot hide the server that is now part of the whistleblower’s complaint nor can they hide the whistleblower and prevent them from testifying in a trial in the Senate. This is like some medieval trial that completely denies the Due Process of Law.
