Warrant was a complete sham. they hid information about the lack of reliability even when they went the first time for the warrant. a complete sham. now let s remember the surveillance and related investigative techniques began with the four trump campaign advisers. three of them convicted. and the report found in bias or crimes. but this all has cleared one person, carter paige. when you compare the names listed in this report, flynn comes up 40 times. paul manafort over 200. carter paige, a whopping 614 times, which means paige averages out to twice a page in the report over the last two years. he spoke with the fbi for over ten hours, another six hours with the house intelligence committee, a bevy of television interviews. what does he have to say now? well, this key witness and
Misdeeds enumerated in the mueller report didn t deserve impeachment. again, it is a political question. he obviously deserved to be impeached for those things. and those things are crimes. i think that that s important because some of the things that he s being impeached for might be violations of the constitution, but not indictable crimes. the things he s accused of doing in the mueller report he could be indicted for. it is one of the examples he s able to use the fact that he s in this office that he utterly shouldn t be in to protect himself from his own record of law breaking. yeah. that brings us back to the echoes where precedent doesn t resolve eriverything. nixon s problem was not that a few people did dirty tricks somewhere along the line. the reason that he reached a level of impeachment where the senate republicans were telling him he was out and he resigned because the cover-up, which is legally called the obstruction.
Debunks many of donald trump s claims about bias in that issue, which of course relates to the impeachment issues. but we begin with a look at the events that have led to the congress moving towards articles of impeachment. the house committee on the judiciary is introducing two articles of impeachment. a clear and present danger to our free and fair elections. where is the impeachable offense? why don t you just let him cheat in one more election? why not let him cheat just one more time? there are in crimes. it says it. there are no crimes. they re impeaching me, and there are no crimes. abuse of power, obstruction of congress. the question now is in article one of the resolution, impeaching president donald j. trump for abusing his powers. mr. chairman, there are 23 is and 17 noes. the article is agreed to.
Record are arguing are abuses of power or high crimes or impeachab impeachable, including bribery, more specific election crimes and self-dealing and self-enr h self-enrichme self-enrichment. then there is the big one, the obstruction of justice that bob mueller himself laid out, which democrats have talked about as potentially impeachable offenses. i think number one is emoluments. i think it s always been about that for me. this is a president who has equated neo-nazis with those who protest against them. i will fight every day until he is impeached. we are joined by new york times columnist who has been all over this. you know, some people follow. some people summarize. i think in your writing and your advocacy you have lead on this. thank you. it is interesting to see some of the smart d.c. predictions
Fade and evaporate as they often do. so we come back to you on the substance. two articles, is that enough? so there is two different questions. is it enough politically? and i think i would obviously defer to nancy pelosi s judgment about what she thinks will get the most votes in the house, what she thinks will be easiest to defend for her front line members, if they are making decisions on these bases, then i think she s the expert. then there is the question of justice. has donald trump committed other crimes? has donald trump violated the constitution in other ways? and the answer i think is overwhelmingly yes. there are obviously other things that he deserves to be impeached for. you know, which is one reason why i really wish that these hearings had gone on quite a bit longer and that there had been quite a bit public airing of the scope of donald trump s corruption and wrongdoing since taking office. well, you raised that and certainly in the mueller case, there was an atte
