"SNIP....

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler accused Senate Republicans of violating their oath to be impartial jurors in an impeachment trial, as GOP senators defended their right to work for President Trump’s acquittal, the Washington Post reports.

Said Nadler: “That’s in violation of the oath that they’re about to take, and it’s a complete subversion of the constitutional scheme,”

1. We are living in a time where they (RETHUGS) know it and

They don't give a fuck! All of them have a big P (putin) branded into their body someplace.

[elleng]

2. He's right, imo,

and they're setting up Constitutional issue for the 'trial' and after.



HOPING others more scholarly than I are getting into it.

7. Begging the question for Constitutional Convention to enshrine their methods of corrupt governance

that's where we're headed

[paleotn]

13. That will split the country.

And maybe that's the ultimate end game.

17. To some powers, it's just a continent with resources and labor to exploit

America going into the chop shop

[democrank]

3. Is there a remedy?

And what is it?

[bucolic_frolic]

6. Impeach them

[Matthew28]

9. It isn't pretty.

Looks a little like France 1790's.

[UTUSN]

4. K&R

[bucolic_frolic]

5. Violators should be impeached too

Dozens of Trump's enablers should do hard hard time

[jalan48]

8. They don't care, they are not going to play by traditional rules. They believe in one party rule.

We're in a serious fight here and being outraged at their behavior shows our naivete to what's going on in the real world.

10. the fascists violate their oath on a daily basis. nt

[tclambert]

11. "Ethics? We ain't got no ethics. We don't need no ethics! We don't have to show you any

stinking ethics!"

[Stonepounder]

12. Their oath doesn't mean beans to them.

And they know that no one can do anything about it.

[James48]

14. Playing to Putin's desires.

Nothing would make the Russians happier than for the republicans to dishonor the Constitution, uphold Trumps corruption, and watch the nation tear itself apart.

Republicans are causing a civil war that will result in the Balkanization of every state of the Union.

[paleotn]

15. They don't really care.

Those in safe states anyway. Speaking of those NOT in safe states, I've not heard Collin's clutching her pearls about much of anything lately. Collins, Gardner, Tillis and others have gone radio silent of late, or am I missing anything?

16. subversion is what Putin's puppets do well

[Golden Raisin]

18. Oaths, subpoenas, courts, laws, rules, traditional norms, the Constitution

mean nothing to Republicans. Power and money is their game.
