House Judiciary Approves New Rules to Aid Impeachment
The House Judiciary Committee, led by Jerry Nadler, has approved new rules to make persuing a Trump impeachment easier.
According to The Hill:
The House Judiciary Committee voted along party lines Thursday to broaden the panel’s powers to investigate President Trump as Democrats seek to build their case for impeachment — and clean up their oversight message amid a month of mixed signals.
AdvertisementThe move does not launch a formal impeachment process, but marks the first time a Democratic panel has voted on language that explicitly lays out how the party’s ongoing investigations into alleged presidential misconduct could lead to drafting — and eventual votes on — impeachment articles.
The partisan 24-17 vote followed more than two hours of feisty debate, as Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) made Democrats’ case for securing disputed information from an uncooperative administration, and Republicans rushed to Trump’s defense with accusations that Democrats are pretending to pursue impeachment without actually doing so.
That debate over the status of the Judiciary investigation — is there an impeachment inquiry or is there not? — has dogged Democrats throughout the week, as even top leaders have sent mixed signals about the nature of the probe, muddling the party’s oversight message just as the process is heating up.
Republicans have fired back claiming that the new rules and focus are intended to keep the focus off of the Democrats disarray.

Why is it all we hear is all the evil, far fetch spending of time and tax payers money by the Congress? How can people be so full of evil? Our House sure needs to be sweeep clean and get rid of all the evil in this House. If we don’t it is our destruction for our great nation. Time for people to get rid of them now or hopefully someone greater than them cuts them down with what they have done with our nation since 2012 on. Too bad Snowden doesn’t speak up and explain why he took off with what was going on during Obama’s regime that caused him to betray our nation with security.
The Democrats actually came up with some RULES? Do they even know the meaning of that word? They seem adept at disobeying Rules. Just saying.
In other words, Dems are making up rules as they go along. The process for impeachment is contained within the Constitution and ought to remain as is. Whenever Dems are blocked by the Constitution they simply pass another workaround that is patently unconstitutional. Let’s just call this what it is; an ongoing coup de’atat defined as high treason. This time arrests are required since they got a pass last time around.
The DEMON RATS are ALL DISCIPLES of SATAN! EVIL, THRU and THRU!
Amen to that!
AMEN!
It was simply a House Committee and NOT the full House and it’s only language of the rules and NOT an Impeachment. Sounds pretty lame to me and very typical of the Commie Dems!
They want to appear to impeach with out really impeaching. Nadler the sader, is he getting primaried if he doesn’t follow his far left loons? Fine, the American citizens will see liberals/progressives and democrats as the party of do nothing, except for themselves.
I do have a question about Trump in 2020, I get a lot of merch for 2020 that says Trump…. no mention of Pence. If Nicki Halley going to replace him on the ticket?
Gary, You hit the nail on the head. Communist Democrats.
Smoke and Mirrors, just to satisfy their moronic base.
The “Committee” was just wasting time as they had nothing better to do. They could have just played poker or something else as “constructive”. There isn’t enough intelligence in the liberal/democratic party to actually do anything constructive for America.
Do these people (and I use that description litely ) ever grow a brain and known they lost the election. It is beyond time that they be moved to somewhere else. Federal prison would be a good start, or a physic hospital permanently.
Here comes the Civil War!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It seems to me, that the real reason for impeaching President Trump, is not over the Russia Probe, but over his pro-life, pro-marriage stance. He’s not the only one that is pro-life and pro-marriage. Sincerely, Ruth
Once More!
Here comes the Civil War!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Demonic Rats have done Everything they could to obstruct every move Donald Trump has made since he was elected Our President of The United States of America!
They do not care about poverty, healthcare or the fact that we are being inundated with illegal aliens, yes, I said aliens, that are bringing back diseases that have not been here for decades. It doesn’t matter how wonderful his plans and policies are, the simple fact that it was Donald Trump that enacted it makes it horrible in their eyes. They are a sad and despicable group of people that only care about hating and destroying President Donald Trump at whatever cost to the American people.
When are these LOW LIFED IDIOTS going to realize loving your Country IS NOT grounds for Impeachment….
Can’t beat em, impeach em! Lol lasers. All you screwballs. The house? It’s more like the outhouse. Full of nasty crap. God is good and Dems are “lost”. Try doing something worthwhile!
Whey are these LOWS LIFED IDIOTS going to realize Loving Your Country is NOT grounds for Impeachment…
What do you expect from the dark side lie, cheat , steal not surprised that they take anything and lie and misstates the incident . Hard to love some of my fellow Americans when they act like 3rd banana republic dictators. So dam Sad
Just more B . . . S . . . to keep moving Americans to the left – and what will they do if they get elected? NOTHING good – just like ObamaCare that robbed Social Security/Medicare (again) to pay for illegals and others that have not contributed a dime, our educational system, the VA, climate change rules and regs that do nothing – do I need to go on? All of this just causes our overly bloated government from the local branches to the feds to increase taxes in the form of bonds, goods and sales tax, income tax etc. It will never end until the left has every ounce they can draw and Americans are all slaves to those in power who are slaves t the elite rich and dark money contributors aka, Globalists.
We need to rid our government of ALL the commies and the muslims! If we don’t we will have NOTHING! And I mean NOTHING!
Or, otherwise known as the “Election loser” agenda
They don’t have a leg to stand on.
Once again the democrats prove how worthless they are. Nadler and all his fellow Congressmen have been and continue to embarrass decent intelligent people the world over. If there ever were communist in our government Nadler and his fellow dems truly are card carrying enemies of patriotic Americans.
A case of Impeachment in search of a Crime….No more, No less.
U know if they spent half the time they do doing stupid SHIT like this, they probably would have accomplished the whole years agenda by now and maybe just maybe they could have accomplished
Something 4 the American people!!!!
The entire Congress should B docked their whole years pay 4 doing nothing!!!!????
Hear ye, Hear ye! This person speaks with wisdom and the recommendation should be brought to the floor for action and implementation!
Hey, it’s PURSUING and PERUSING! Is your proofreader from the Nadler school of intellect?
Nadler has been carrying a death wish grudge for Donald Trump since the latter called him a fatso. You don’t call an obese representative “fatso” without consequences, and now the still-fat Nadler has a personal grudge to settle.
Loser that he is, Nadler will fail grandly, which will only lead to his fattening up again out of severe depression.
Hey Congressman Derek Kilmer, you are scum of the earth, all you do is to show you evil stupid smile, steal from us The Taxpayers, look for a free meal and spill your venom and Hate to destroy the US Constitution and waste our time and taxes doing nothing except to do evil to President Trump, as useless as you are please return your salary back to us the taxpayers.
Democrats are going against God’s anointed they will get the ones you fail….pray for President Trump and repent for the sins of our nation and each state humbling ourselves before Him so that He will heal our land.
I keep praying that God would get that little weasel off of our POTUS’s back! We the people made our choice and we wisely chose Trump! He isn’t guilty of anything but those devils sure are! Why do they want to have power over our country when they will never have our support and obedience! These crooks will fail at every turn!
The FASCIST liberal party is using STASI tactics. Their only plan is to CONTROL everything in AMERICAN lives which includes destroying the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION.
In short, 2020 Election, if the FASCIST liberals win…The END of FREEDOM, CAPITALISM, and UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION.
Waiting for my comment to show!
First time in my life have I ever heard/seen that it violates some rule or law to be a REAL AMERICAN as President! What the Socialist/Democrats better keep in mind is their attacks on President Trump are attacks on us the people who elected him! Also, their new rules could be used to impeach/Prosecute phony former president Obama for real crimes committed by him and his administration. They are well known and those who covered for him are just as dirty!
Following that trail of evidence will be fun to watch!
Could be a huge amount of grand jury cases coming up with some of the names including those that are screaming the loudest. Document will show ties they do not wish known and exposed, plus the set-up for decades that has made many on both sides wealthy and secure, all the while, criminal decisions have been the path. They NEED him out to save themselves and the corrupt machine that has been “The GOVERNMENT” of the country for SO long! Remember, cleaning the swamp, has revealed HOW MUCH BIGGER, “THE SWAMP”, really is!
WWG1WGA-WORLDWIDE!
There are rules and protocol in our government that have been in place for over 200 years. I most emphatically state, Democrats, YOU CANNOT MAKE UP YOUR OWN RULES, it must be done with strict attention to what already exists for any situation involving our Constitutional rights. Nadler, you look like you are PREGNANT with evil ideas on impeachment – you are, especially you, need to stuff your ideas and do it according to the law, not the Demoncrats lawlessness laws! Got it you POS!!!

I hope the citizens of this country get rid of these incompetent, clueless, and lying Democrats. They have done nothing to help the citizens of thi country but have done harm to this country with open borders!
Jerry Nadler needs to be impeached/fired. His hated of the president is totally out of control and he is an embarrassment to the USA.
They don’t have sheet so they are trying to come up with BS to get to President Trump, won’t happen, there will be a civil war if they try their BS.
That is why 2020 is so important to be elecet and re-elect for Republican those are the Smart people…! As far as Democrats goes…(they are the real key of F*CKED_UP people…, they do not care wasted taxpayer monies…) I used to be Democrats as a good avid American citizens, and when I found out Democrats Cheated, Liars, abusive Power, wasted Taxpayer, falsify documents, broken Laws, Violate rule of Law, etc….. I switch to Republican since 1980’s. I would say 3/4 of the Bad Democrats of Congress in Rep. are needed badly to remove. I hope you would too…!? Democrats LOVE to be Criminal and tried hard to cover-up and get away wit the crime they committed. Democrats are for Terrorist…!!!! It showed the FACTS….!!! You might not agree with me…, but HEY…, with my old age I watched this coming…, and soon there will be more growing killing each other…..(MARK MY WORDS….). (My EYES don’t LIES).
Heaven forbid through Dems actually do something POSITIVE for the US instead of constantly being on the hate and destroy Trump bandwagon. They are so afraid of losing the 2020 electins, hey are blind to how most real Americans feel. Trump has been a gift to the country .I may not like the man, but sane people know all the good he has done. So keep up your stupidity Dems and watch your party go down in flames in Nov. 2020.
Sounds as if they all ( Democrats) need to see a psychiatrist and get their heads straight. How on earth can so many elected officials go so crazy at the same time? They have made it very clear that they think of nothing but giving trouble to the President. They do NOTHING for the benefit of the American people. Throw them all OUT ! (And, garnish their wages for being ‘non-productive’.)
So, after a month long paid vacation from a job there weren’t actually doing in the first place, instead of doing something important & useful, like approve the trade deal with Mexico & Canada, or remove Omar & Tlaib from their positions, or denounce attacks against our constitution, etc., they waste tax dollars on more bogus attacks against the President? Typical democrat stupidity, leadint he nation further in to that massive pit that their beloved Lord Hussein Obama was taking us down. I hope every one of them loses the next elections & many end up in prison where they belong, or at least in the welfare line, like the losers they are.
All of these hypocrite liberal career criminals involved in this impeachment activity should be arrested to GITMO for many counts of sedition & theft of trillions of taxpayer funds , at the very least. , Since their career organized crime exponentially far exceeds anything Trump & Kavanaugh have ever had the time to even do !
It has to pass the Senate as well. They are just “b-essin'” around.
Nadler and company don’t know what the hell they are doing
Amen ?!
Nadler is a sawed off piece of
dung need to retire that idiot and send him to a retirement home
Same old same old …
He hurt our feelings by campaigning and winning in more states than Hillary so we want him out of office …
Living in the wonderful blue state of Illinois I think there should be a form of electoral college in the states only about 14 out of 102 county’s overwhelmingly voted for governor pritzker …
That’s like Hillary’s 18 out of 50 and she should be president …
The constitution already lays out articles for impeachment and the only way to change that is with a full 2/3 vote of each chamber and then it has to be ratified through a high majority (either 2/3 or 3/4) of states. It isn’t in their power to make up their own rules as they go along
Well, as far as the House goes? All I’m seeing is a lot of clueless Bafoons, who are sitting in their chairs, whining, griping….moaning an groaning about a LOT OF NOTHING! They are totally SCARED because of all the lies they’ve told about our President, and all the Law Breaking THEY have been a part of, within the hallowed halls of our Government.
Worst part is, they just keep adding to the LIES, with assistance from the MSM.
I would love to find enough people to SUE every, single MSM outlet, for Aiding and Abetting via the DemonRats, and clean them OUT! Why? So REAL MEDIA can take over every, single one of them and report Honest News, because the LYING MEDIA has been has been collaborating with the real law-breakers for far too long.
When are the ass holes in Congress going to do their job and do something for the good of our country instead of trying to impeach the President? They wasted a fortune with the Russia/Trump probe and got nowhere, now this. I was once a Democrat, but seeing the way they do things and having Hillary ( who couldn’t do anything for her country) run for President has made me change parties. The Democrats only do things to benefit themselves and to get votes. Time for Congress to do the things that we the people voted for to represent us.
We need another million people to march on Washington and demand our rights be protected by the idiots who are now in office. I’m talking about the Demoncraps. !!!!! They have been running around like headless chickens for much too long., We need to get everyone we know out to VOTE. Vote those criminals OUT of office. And let’s start with the “squad” of know nothings, and work our way up.
Needless Nadler just assured all Americans that come elections his personal hate filled rants against president Trump will bring about a thorough toilet scrubbing come November, wherein “we the people” will flush him and all his lunatic frenzied treasonous co-conspirators down the shit hole where they belong. I’d like to think of it as a super flush, long long overdue.
I’d like to flush his pension with him.
The Democratic Caucus is comprised of a bunch of blithering idiots. If they impeach President Trump, they will pay dearly at the polls. The Demonrat Party has relegated itself to the trash heap of political irrelevancy.
Vote these Congressman out. They staged a witch hunt and are wasting OUR time and money. They refuse to do their jobs and work against the American people’s best interests.
Trump is doing an outstanding job. These ignorant Congressmen are just monkeys on Trump’s back.
