    You're the definition of stupid. The perfect constituent for a party so corrupt, woefully inept and lacking a coherent message voters can support.
    Perhaps the evidence is not overwhelming and not compelling after a mere 48 days of impeachment hearings.

    And presidential immunity does not extend to those around trump. We have seen as they go to prison by the dozen that they are not protected.
    I thought the immunity from criminal prosecutions was just a Justice Department policy and only applied to federal prosecutions.

    The people rest.

    Is the case submitted?

    Yes

    OK it is hereby ordered that the President is acquitted.

    Now we will take up the matter of your request for evidence.




    There are only so many characters you can place in a subject line.

    But I did enjoy that loser dentist post 4 times about me. Unrequited love. So sad.

    Republicans instead back a resolution setting the terms of the impeachment trial that would postpone consideration of additional evidence until after House impeachment managers and Trump’s defense lawyers have presented their cases.

    Sic

    In English, the Latin word sic, meaning thus or so, is usually used within quoted passages, and it indicates that the quoted text is reproduced exactly as it appears in the original. It can be useful when you are quoting from a source that has spelling or grammar errors and you want to make sure your readers know the errors are not yours. Sic may be italicized (although it’s often not) and is usually enclosed in brackets within the quotation.

    No one really knows. The Justice Department has its theory. A lot of other people have their theories.

    I do not think anyone really wants to test it either.

    I agree, although if it is a DOJ policy that means they will not attempt to prosecute real crimes. I don't know if that is more of a roadblock than the fact that the DOJ would be reluctant to undertake a prosecution of their boss.

    In theory, the president can order the DOJ to stop any investigation, or prosecution. If they fail to stop, the president can fire those who are doing the investigation, or prosecution. Many political appointees serve at the pleasure of the president, so could easily be fired.

    All this happened when Nixon was in office. He ordered the Attorney General to drop the Watergate investigation. Both the Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General were required to resign rather than shutdown the investigation. Finally Bork(yes, that Bork) agreed to be Attorney General on the condition he would kill the investigation. It was called the Saturday Night Massacre.

    There is a question whether the Attorney General of New York could arrest the president. There are many legal scholars who say no. If the president used his powers to resist, then it would be impossible to actually arrest him.

    The only persons who should be arrested are these whiny Democrat Socialists who are trying to remove a sitting president who was elected by the American people.

    Perhaps the evidence is not overwhelming and not compelling after a mere 48 days of impeachment hearings.

    and to complete the thought Trump has surrounded himself with counsel willing to say that is AOK and legal like Barr.

    What investigation is the DOJ doing and what crimes has this President committed?
