Fox News’ Chris Wallace: Impeachment Inquiry Is ‘Exact Opposite of Unconstitutional’

[Jack]

"Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace hit back against Newt Gingrich on Friday for dismissing House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry as “an unconstitutional coup d’état,” telling viewers that “this is the exact opposite of unconstitutional.” Wallace went on to accuse Gingrich, a former Speaker of the House, of hypocrisy, noting that Gingrich himself had spearheaded the impeachment effort against former President Bill Clinton. While Gingrich claimed the 2019 impeachment effort was attempting to re-hash the results of the 2016 election, Wallace told Fox News’ Martha MacCallum the remark was a “reach for somebody like Newt Gingrich who was involved in the last impeachment effort.” “The Constitution specifically says that impeachment is left to Congress with very little statement as to how they want to conduct it. And in fact, I think I remember that Newt Gingrich did an impeachment effort, led an impeachment effort against Bill Clinton in 1998... Was that an effort to overturn an election? No, he was investigating stuff,” he said. In separate comments Friday, Wallace also pushed back against those criticizing the whistleblower who sparked the impeachment inquiry, noting that “the basic story that the whistleblower alleged in the first place appears to have been largely corroborated.”

Uh-oh. Fox News supporting Impeachment Inquiry.

wallace is a smudge.

secret proceedings /secret accuser / but self serving leaks? what kind of "process "is this??

This is impeachment without the protections of an impeachment vote ( representation, ability to call witness etc)

Pelosi is determined to ram it thru, COMPLETELY undermining precedent and safeguards of a true impeachment

[Darth Omar]

Wallace can jump up and down and yell ‘impeachment inquiry’ all he wants to lol.

But until the House votes on it, it will just remain an inquiry. Why don’t they vote on it and make it real, Chris? Lack of moral conviction? Lack of evidence? Lack of votes? Some combination of the three?

Pick one and get back with us, Chris.

You and Chris were using big words again. Exact. Opposite. Constitution. Unconstitutional.

Gingrich? The publicly pious prick accompanying his wife at the VATICAN altar of hypocrisy? Calista, his 3rd wife, his mistress during his 2nd marriage while he was running the IMPEACHMENT show of Bill Clinton.

Stay out of it NEWT, you motherfucker and FAKE Catholic POS!

[Truth Detector]

Stay out of it NEWT, you motherfucker, 3 time married, FAKE Catholic who banged your 2nd wife, then your mistress while impeaching CLINTON.

^^This from a pathetic, lying, dishonest hack who defended BillyBob Clinton banging interns and other women while in office. STFU you boorish, hypocritical asshat.

It’s cute that you keep quoting these random people. Maybe you will stumble on someone who I give a shit about

No way Dems will formally impeach. Why would they want to give all
the power to McConnell and Senate? They just want to keep the
informal soap opera alive.

Cool exact opposite of unconstitutional, so the inquiry is extremely constitutional.

Thanks for specifying the degree of constitutionality of Trumps impeachment as extremely robust!
