Somebody really caught in the middle of it, and that doesnt excuse the person from the consequences. Professors, weve talked about abuse of power and bribery. When we started, we said we would also discuss Obstruction Of Congress. So id like to ask you some questions about Obstruction Of Congress. Professor gerhardt, in your view, is there enough evidence here to charge President Trump with the high crime and misdemeanor of Obstruction Of Congress . I think theres more than enough. As i mention in my statement, just to really underscore this, the third article of impeachment approved by the House Judiciary Committee against president nixon charged him with misconduct because he failed to comply with four legislative subpoenas. Here it is far more than four that this president has failed to comply with and hes ordered
the Executive Branch as well not to cooperate the congress. Those together with a lot of other evidence suggests Obstruction Of Congress. Professor karlan, do you agree .
secret treaty of dover of 1670. it always was a reason for him converting to catholicism. i don t think that dog will hunt in the 18th century and i don t think lit hunit will hunt today. when you take a loa case called mcdonald s versus the united states, the supreme court looked at a public corruption bribery case. this was a case where gifts were actually received, benefits were actually extended. there was completion. this was not some hypothetical of a crime that was not fulfilled or an action that was not actually taken. the supreme court unanimously overturned that conviction.
